At 6th level, your ability to control the use of magic around you has expanded. By spending 3 ki points, you are able to cast Counterspell, Dispel Magic, and Nondetection at 3rd-level without providing material components.
Arcane Awareness
At 11th level, your dealings with magic have granted you the ability to sense incoming spells. When you are forced to make a saving throw due to a spell, you do so with advantage. (Planned Change: When you are forced to make a saving throw due to a spell, you can spend 1 ki point to gain advantage on the saving throw. If you succeed, you also gain resistance to any damage caused by that spell.)
There has been a lot of great comments providing feedback, and as part of updating all of my subclasses to work better with the updated character sheet, I have been making a few changes to certain subclasses based on that feedback. After looking through the abilities of this one, I feel like giving 3rd level spells to a non-caster at 6th level is too much and switching the two would thematically make more sense for a mage hunting monk's power progression. It has quite a few adds to people's libraries so I wanted to seek some outside opinions before I made such a drastic change.
I also have a bit of a change to Arcane Awareness that I have shown in parentheses which may affect what I do.
Hey everyone, as it says in the title, should I swap these two features in my Way of the Spell Slayer class?

Thanks for any input!
