Dust vs Enchantress

Polygon

Whos the better BGs Defender assuming both at r3?

Personally I think its Dust as she has less counters and a lot of her counters are champs that nobody even runs in the deck either way like IronHeart. Whereas for Enchantress, the science champs just nuke her. Her AI can be annoying with specials but ive seen even cosmics take her . Though if its not a nuke meta /meta where the nodes aren't noticable, then the node combination along with having to remove her spells can be rough. Like Zero to Hero for example. Dust as an r3 has gotten a lot more attention as of late due to being really tanky, glancing, 10% crit resistance, and can punish your combo meter if duped with sand debuffs

Enchantress is tough defender if node benefits her, for example, the current VT rich get richer meta could make her tough if she decides to be passive. Dust in general is a tough defender and she has unique ability which other defenders don't have, she lags the opponent device which happens a lot nowadays it feels like a feature lol.

Also dust can be used as dual threat against skill defenders including bullseye.

Enchantress is dependent on AI. if AI isn't willing to throw heavies or is passive, it's difficult to fight her. But if the AI cooperates, she's a fast fight.
