And I'll try to keep updating it asap.

As for my personal take on 6.11? they addressed I guess performance numbers. It still did not fix our gameplay. They robbed how enjoyable Samurai was to play and in it's place gave us some potency swaps. So probably performance-wise? Samurai's are " oke " to play, Crit Comps idk much about that though I am assuming that's still in shambles? but the enjoyment to play Samurai was stolen... to fix... absolutely nothing.

So a few potency increases 6.11? I see that as a bone to throw to players, it doesn't do anything but now they can't be told they didn't give SAM's anything. Even if its not what our feedback implied.
more we need to be realist, we will not see important change before the 6.2....
they will try to let the patch run for a month for get enough data before decide anything.
the change of the potency of midare was... erm ok, i guess, but far to be enough.
plus they didn't adress the trouble of tenka goken fact that the damage was nerfed to to the floor since it don't auto crit and the damage was reduce without kaiten.
or the fact that the damage orientation was switch from iajutsu to combo what make little to no sense.
the removal of kaiten was maybe with good intention, but since we don't know them plan it's feel weird. especially when the damage was moved around and make the sam feel unrewarding.

all we can do is wait until they decide to come out and explain us why they did make this choice and what they plan to do for adress the community feeling.
