Artist vs Spirit

So this is my thirteenth killer vs killer thread. Same two questions as always:

Who in your opinion would you class as the better/stronger killer of these two and why?

And which one of them is most fun to play?

    Spirit is stronger.

    Artist is more fun

    Spirit stronger, I think, but they both very close. And both fun.

    i think spirit is probably better, she does better in chase and gets around quicker, and her best addons are insanely strong and transformative (one of them she moves at almost blight speed in phase, and the other one she has echolocation).

    artist is good, she can patrol the map fairly reliably from one position, she has a strong chase power (but w key gaming), and her best addons dont do much (one is to help prevent w key gaming, the other is to help with her 30 year recharge)

    so yeah, separate strengths, but i think spirit does better if they got the same map, same rng, same swf, using same perks (on both sides) and with their top addons

    Depends spirit with mother's daughter ring? Spirit. Base kit artist v.s basekit spirit? Artist for sure. Spirit is carried by her add-ons, if not she's a solid mid A tier.

    Spirit is stronger. Maybe addonless is Artist bit better?

    I like both of them, Artist more

    Yay my two favorite killers. Spirit is definitely better even basekit. Spirit doesn’t need add ons to be an S tier killer.

    And of course no killer is more fun than Spirit, but also there’s no other killer more fun than Artist, so they’re 1 and 2 to me in that regard.

    Artist is bit more fun and she's good wifu material. Spirit i rarely ever play her mostly because I just hate any character that's deemed way too op, broken or unfair in some way. Though she's much better now with her audio changes when using her power. She also has wild mood swings.

    Lore wise Spirit dead or alive would win. She's a trained Kendo(?) fighter with a samurai blood line and Artist, she's literally just an artist.

    Addonless absolutely Artist as she has map control. With addons mainly because of how broken MD ring is, I would say Spirit.
