    My ideas for the kensei buff

    First of all I'm a rep 12 kensei on pc so I don't need people telling me kensei is good and he doesn't need a buff. He should get the raider side dash gb so he can actually do something against a turtle ub spammer. Another buff I would suggest would be to either make his dash attack much faster or feintable. No matter what it needs to be safe on block.
    He should have his superior block reverted back to its former state cause there was absolutely no reason it needed a nerf.

    By biggest idea for an opener is for Kensei to be able to soft feint heavies with a gb to produce the kensei throw pommel stun which people could dodge if their reactions are fast. The pommel strike wouldn't grant a free attack if landed but it would stun the opponent and remove the indicators and deal big stam damage. The pommel hit would have to be pretty safe if dodged cause in the current meta if an opener is easily punished the character is trash period.
    That's all I got.

    Kensei Rep 13 here, and I approve this SH*T Give kensei some love He is amazing, but feels like that old mustnag in your garage. You love to revisit him but in high lvl "race" he is just obsolete

    Ditto

    I Don't care what they do to kensei I've just turned rep 5 i mainly well pretty much only play duel ... and against the other characters in move set and abilities he's weak and its honestly frustrating so much for being a master swordsman they need to buff and rebalance the odds fast because with Kensei you only win with player skill which is fine because apart from that their is nothing else to him.
