Is The Valkyrie Broken? | Forums

[Master047]

Guys! Fresh news from the Community Developer!
In the upcoming updates Valkyrie will be buffed, i think this resolve pretty much everything:

Valkyrie:
Light Attacks: reduced recovery time
Light Chains: reduced time between attacks
Pouncing Thrust & Hunter’s Strike: Increased damage and link options after those moves
Shield Crush: add link to Light Attack chains
Hunter’s Rush: reduced recovery time

I can't wait!

Bump this thread

My suggestions to her is easy.

1.Buff light dmg 15%
2.heavy Dmg 10%
3.make her third light attack something like a nobushi.
4. For a god sake give 0,3s more time to dash blocks same with counterbleed effect
5.Make a posible cancel shield bash to GB like Warden.
6. make something usefull s legsweep and make her little bit faster especialy heavy animations.My eyes bleeding when she trying land a heavy atack.

i have 20+ hours with her i can be decent but she is not competetive to any mod.

Her dmg is ridiculous low compare to other clasess, example^ most of heroes has light atack damage above 10 points average is 15. Valkyrie's attack dmg is 5!(U can check while death(three last hits on death screen ). Also i have big troubles with chageing block sides(dunno why, but its ok on others)

You have wrong info. Valkyrie's light attack dmg is 12 for first attack, then 18 and 20 if you hits 3 combo. Her light attack is not low at all if you can hit 3 times in the row. It is still not that bad if you can hit 1 time because the average is 15. Her heavy attack on the other hand is very weak compare to others but that is how she suppose to be. She has shield so she can't do ton of dmg.

Her overall dmg btw is still better than Conqueror so I don't think she needs dmg buffs

this basically covers everything

less laggy light attacks, faster light chains, can chain off of strike and thrust. being able to shield crush between light attacks sounds really awesome too

[Snowju]

She is in no way broken. Guys actually LOOK at her move set and hero specific move set. She has crazy good combos with cancels and faints, more than anyone. She's weak because of the crazy stuff she can do to fake you out. I thought she sucked until I started figuring out her cancels.

Care to elaborate? I have been working with her and reached prestige 1, but most of my experience is that nothing of hers combos against players.

Most players I cant get more than one light attack off. And worse yet, when fighting Orochis, they just spam dodge so MID COMBO they just dodge to the left or right. My light attack combo avoided by a simple dodge! What in the ****?

At least make a player counter the direction to break a combo, not ****ing ignore the whole combat system and just dodge out of it.

I would be totally satisfied with a slight buff to her light attack speed and at least 10-15% more range. I can't believe her reach equals the Orochi's when her weapon is almost twice as long...

Sadly it does not address the problem with her shoulder pin, you still can't use one of her signature moves.

whats wrong with the pin?

Well it's got something like a 150ms window. Unless you're a Quake pro, you ain't gonna hit that consistently which makes the move effectively useless.
