In my vision of ninja concept, the ninja is not a killer, but rather a support damage dealer class. He is not very good on his own, but it does provide good single target pressure and works well when paired with a monk or RDM.

Although, I agree that the "support ninja" is a strange concept. But, I like it. This is very close to the jobs what I enjoy. You have a many options, but few are extremely effective and narrowly targeted. That making ninja very universal option in any pick, but no best in any position.

ps. This is probably why his LB is broken a bit. To give nin more value as a teamwork class.
I only speak from Ranked perspective when talking about balance and the fun of the job. Stealth Just doesn't work properly because this season they made every ability do damage and if someone targets you at max distance and use an ability your stealth is just ruined. They have 5 yalms of advantage on you. If you try to go stealth from a distance you can't use it because you move too slow.

Huton is another useless ability because the buff disappears when the shield is used up. You only use Huton when you're pressured and that shield disappears instantly, so the buff doesn't exist essentially.

Hyosho takes too long to land and Raiju Animations make it a bit better.

To use doton you have to be in a position of vulnerability.

The whole kit doesn't mesh well.
