Samurai, why Tanks?

[Megido]

Are you seriously trying to logically explain why Ninja, historically the equivalent to a modern spy, should be a tank instead?

That wasnt really the point of my post. But if we get an evasion tank, it would make the most sense to me if it was on a ninja, not on a samurai. And for samurai to be dps. Also well, evasion tanking seems a lot more unique than another parry/block job or not-nerfed WAR lifesteal tank.
I see this discussion all the time and the only reasoning i ever got was 'cool armor' or 'just cause'.

And yes when i heard people talk about ninja tanks i raised an eyebrow as well but it still makes more sense than a samurai. The lesser evil, one could say.

SAM was originally designed as a parry tank. They had high EVA too and then later Seigan etc.

DRK started out as a fragile DD but with the addition of high end PDT, Apoc drain/haste and dread spikes it was the ideal tank in 11.

There we go, now it makes a lot more sense. Thanks.
