I would say that the argument of VA instantly being rounded down in any teamfight is not really a valid one and moreso stems from the fact most of those are built in an extremely glass-canony way. That in fact applies to any kind of frailer builds, though I'm sure can be avoided by just not building in such a way where you just immediately die the second you step in. I would go as far as to say VA's STR critting melee cousins suffer even more from that same issue due to sharing the niche of high single-target damage, except with stats spread way thinner.

That, and the very specific issue you state can be fixed by, y'know. Not rushing in blind. Having a minimum of preparation or thought before an action.
Things like swapping to a shuriken/other weapon before striking.

Thats because building daggers in a way that they can even dish out damage in the first place, meaning they HAVE to crit, else their numbers are a joke, leaves them with very little options to be tanky unless you do something gimmickey like a no skill VA/Hexer that uses curses and such. Most VAs have about the sameish stat spread, copy pasted. Its equipment/race that makes the difference mostly.
So yeah that's kinda by design of how the class works. Not a huge fan of it either, but it is what it is. Glass cannons do be glass cannons.

That specific issues "not chargign in blindly" means however, that you do not do your one thing you are good at, at all and applies to the other team as well. It makes each fight more of a chess game waiting for one side to mess up and i LOVE that aspect of it. And a good coordinated team will be able to outplay it.
this makes me think that Hayabusa is not as bad as people think, I have been playing it for a while and even in Duel situations in most cases my fights are extremly hard foguht and won but not because of Hayabusa, but because I strategically outplay someone or flat out win a gamble.

Hayabusa is a very useful tool, if you know what you are doing. But its also absolutely kills you when you mess up. I honestly like that about it, because it makes me actually feel rewarded for playing this style, threading the line of being nuked or do the nuking. Its just fun, so I would hate to see it all be gone with it being over nerfed.

Here however what I think, that its doing too much against too many playstyles. It probably doesn't need to be Anti-Tank AND anti-mage. Remove the Silence so mages can breath a little more. But make it good anti tank daggers by leaving the rest.
