Dazzler or Yelena Belova? I don't know much about either champion.



I have a skill and mutant gem in case either need it

Pikolu

Dazzler if youre good at her rhythm game and want an attacker, yelena if you want an annoying defender

I absolutely love dazzler, but it’s so hard not to advise you to take Yelena. If you care about battlegrounds, Yelena is definitely the best defender right now, and I’m sure she’ll still be very good even after people figure her out. If you’ve got no good mutant attackers or you don’t care about bgs, I’d take dazzler. Otherwise, take yelena.

Battlegrounds is pretty much the only thing I play now. I have lots of good mutants - Onslaught, Sinister, etc.

Is she also a decent attacker? I really don't like ranking pure defenders because they just sit idle when the node doesn't favour them.

Yelena has like 3counters rn. She's definitely worth it.

Dazzler can wait, go with yelena.

Who are the 3 counters? I usually ban her so haven’t fought her as much.

I can only think of Onslaught and Gentle. I'm not sure who the 3rd is, Dazzler?

Okoye can take Yelena too, same with bastion apparently

Yes and his parry-heavy playstyle completely ignores the reversal. I don't know why I didn't think of that

Yelena gives me Enchantress vibes. All skill to be honest, I like that.

Jean is very good counter

she has daunted for doing damage as well as the force field to tank the damage from blocking

Yelena will only age worse as a defender tho simply because there really isn't any skill ask, so players will never need to "figure her out". All you really need for her is a champion without daunted and good damage and she's a nothing burger on BG'S defense, now war is another topic because she will wreck in war or endgame content as you will have to deal with the reversal.

For BGs all kabam needs to do is attach daunted to the next few mutants, have them actually be good enough to be in decks and her value will drop immensely, then create a champ who deals with reversal to take her in longer content and thats it for yelena.

Don't get me wrong, I don't disagree, yelena would be the better pick in this case as shes hot now.

I recently pulled yelena and wanted to see what people were saying about her on the forums so stumbled upon this thread haha.
