Which structure should I spend my heavenly dew on ?

After making it to T16 at the end of the season and spending 300 aether stones for an extra defense team slot, I currently have 800 heavenly dew. Should I spend my heavenly dew on the Aether Amphorae for more rounds, or should I wait until I have a 1000 dew and upgrade either my offense or defense fortress? All three of mine are lv. 2 at the moment.

If you asked this some time ago i'd instantly say Aether Amphorae since it's one more match, but now that i'm in tier 16 too and it costs 70 stamina to battle, i'm not so sure it's a good investment.
It's not even one more match at the beggining of the season anymore.

Right now, I think it would be wiser to save up for a fortress.

Most of your lift comes from offence so that's more important. But by playing well you can still win offence with a fort level disadvantage whereas you'll almost never get a defence win with a fort level disadvantage.
So if you feel confident in your ability to play offence, you can get the defence one to lose less lift from that. If not, it might be safer to get the offence one to make sure you don't miss lift there.

A bit of data for you since I started in T16 last week:
- if you want to go straight to T18, you will almost certainly want lv 2+1 defensive fortress and lv 3 aether amphorae. It's a very difficult jump - I played very decently, missed only about 3 aether pots all week, and I got an extra match out of the lv 3 amphorae. On defense I lost around 300 lift, and on offense I lost about 5 units in...14 matches? most of which were miscalculations. I finished with 7120 lift. If you're going to try to do this, make sure you calculate out how the aether works out because you're likely going to need that last match from missing almost nothing all week long.
- if you're content to just get to T17, I think you're probably fine to just hold on to the dew and wait to see if the fountain becomes upgradable in 3.0 before you make decisions. Gaining 500 lift in a season is easy even if your defense is a complete failure.
- If my memory is correct, T18 is where we get into storage issues for aether without a lv 3 amphorae. It will cost 81+ aether a match and you can recover 16 aether a battle. If you finish a day with, say, 85 aether mid-week, the next day you'll find 135 aether stored and it will overflow if you break both the opponent's aether structures.
