You’re entitled to your opinion, I just personally don’t think SAM LB needs a nerf but then again, I (and most Crystal players and some diamond players) don’t have issues dealing with SAM LB.

I’ve noticed SAM LB only gets people that are not paying attention. Especially in FL where even if I mark the SAM “ignore1” ahead of time (BEFORE he even casts Chiten) simply because I predict what the SAM is going to do based on his position; people still get killed. SAM will rarely dive into a fight (even with his teammates) in FL without Chiten because it also mitigates damage. If they do dive w/o Chiten, they’re probably not good and will die pretty fast. If you see a SAM (in FL) all up in the nastiness (engagement), you SHOULD be expecting a Chiten and possible LB. It really is that simple. You can also gauge how good a SAM is simply by looking at his BH. If he has BH2 or >, you should automatically assume he knows what he’s doing. If he has BH1 or no BH, he’s probably not good (also depends on how long the match was going on for).

The 2 main classes I watch out for in FL are SAM and DRK. If I see one, I automatically assume the worst. SAM LB or DRK/DRG wombo combo. Whereas in Secure, I also watch out for MNK, MCH, WAR if I’m in knockback or golfing territory.
