Dust is unplayable

I admit I'm not an msd level player but throughout the years I've been able to learn and counter pretty much every champion with time, dust is just complete bs, more then bullseye and photon, and it doesn't help that unless you're using the most high tech newest phone she lags the game so much you can't do anything against her, I've never had a single complaint about difficult content or champions in the past but I've lost so many goddamn incursion runs to her bs that I'm pissed

    I've found in my runs (did zone 6 rm 25 and zone 5r1 5) that the best counter to her is to actually have the right hack eg buff cornucopia & drainign degen where you can get regen buffs to recover your health and drain her power, and of course heimdall. And plenty intercepting.

    Aegon ramped + Herc + heimdall has carried me in every fight vs her and Ironheart.

    Im really sad that her sandstorm lags my device, It feels like I'm using dialup internet form the 90s.

    They did go a lil overboard with the animations, its the only champ i lose frames when fighting

    She's such a weird champion. I used Wiccan against her in the EQ and he just smoked her. I didn't get what everyone was complaining about.

    Then I went into incursion and faced the first Dust in there with my r5 ascended Aegon and just died without taking a single hit. Obviously he's not meant to be the best counter since she has class advantage against him, but I still thought he'd get her down. Maybe not if I met a beefy Dust further in, but the first Dust you meet? I thought Aegon would crush it. But no, he got crushed. It didn't matter that I waited out the sandstorm as best I could. He just dropped dead without even denting her all that much while doing so.

    I'm lucky that my top-ranked champ is such a good counter to her, but dang. She's tricky.

    Think it will depend on the nodes and where Aegon;'s combo is. I beat at least 1 later Dust boss with him but..I used my Herc for her mostly.

    She's got that new special ability when you fight her, the screen goes black and you have to guess where you are and where she is.

    It's definitely innovative.

    Tbh I have not been able to get even a single honest attempt against her. Her lag makes impossible to concentrate on her other abilities. Please kabam for God's do something with her lag, it's impossible to fight her. Also I want to say that I have never seen any lag against any particular champ before but with her every attempt has a massive lag when her storm comes on screen.

    Just got a 7 star dust right now.......was stoked until i got the sandstorm running. terrible lag. frameskipping, and generally the opposite of optimization.......dear Kabam, please look into this. Thanks.
