Now that attack speed / recovery time increased, you can do **** all to get out of another Vortex in this game

She was the weakest character in the game and has the same damage and you're still complaining? Git GUD

As soon as I saw the notes I knew this was going to be a problem. Welcome to another champion with near unstoppable incapacitate abilities that turn combat into a joke.

It's not a vortex. Stamina runs out. Unlike the Warden's vortex.

How am I clueless? She does the same.exact.damage. If you're dying to light attacks I feel bad for you son I've got 99 problems and dying to a Valk aint one.

What now? Does warden have infinite stamina or something?

She's still not even as good as she was in the TT. She didn't even honestly get buffs, she got REVERTS. They gave her half the damage she lost in the TT back on her dash attacks, and gave her most of her recovery speed back on all attacks. She still has lower damage than in the TT, slower attack speed on first Light than in the TT, and higher stamina costs. Only buff she truly got vs TT is the new mixup from Shield Crush.

No offense, but I just got in game and tested the changes and I can STILL get out of the mixup with a backdash around 70% of the time. Other 30% is when it's a true mixup and I expect a final light attack and they mix it up with a sweep on the 3rd LLH/LLL combo, making it a LLS combo and not expecting it. But getting out of the shield crush is still easy since it ONLY happens after a heavy attack, not a light, and if you are ready for the sweep you can still dash out of it. the speed of the Sweep wasn't changed, just the recovery time on her dash attacks and 1st and 2nd light attacks, as well as the startup time on second light attack (which is mainly because she recovers from the first one faster).

EDIT: AND she still has lower speed on her heavy attacks than in TT. Which still makes her horrible if parried. The only thing the Valk's ever had is her speed. She's low damage, high speed, with CC and mixups for it. She's a control hero, not a DPS.
