Valkirye seems to be overused now and has stupid conbos. Really? She is a better and faster version of the warden. Shes able to gb or sweep with a guaranteed heavy. She was already good the way she was, now they buffed her to please the casuals.

On another note, they made grabs after parries counterable. Rendering lawbringer useless.

I just dont see why they would buff valkyrie this much when she didnt need one in the first place.

I'm interested to hear more of what you are having issues with when facing Valkyrie. She was arguably the weakest character prior to the update. Both GB and sweep can be avoided by countering the GB under the new mechanics or dodging the sweep. It does take some reaction timing though. Let us know more of your thoughts on the character. I'm sure others can provide some tips for fighting her.

Well should i say git gud or bye? I like that they buffed her even if im not playing her but against her a lot and i dont have a problem with her. Her sweep is easily dodgable and very unsafe because has a lot of recovery time if it doesnt hit. And she can only do it after shield bash or after 2 lights i think. Her light attacks are fast but not op fast. She can do big damage with her combo but thats on you to avoid it.

I actually detest this Valkyrie buff.

The level two Valkyrie bot always puts me in the dirt with her hacks and combos. I am frightened to play AI for my Orders now.

P.S: Not as bad as the Berserker bot and his infinite left, right, left, right, left, right attack chain.

I find her recovery time on light attacks pretty op right now.

Im going to assume youre still playing low ranked matches. Valkyrie has options to either sweep or grab. Its a guessing game at this point. If you dodge and she grabs instead of sweep, youre done.

Some characters can't dodge the sweep. I don't know if you've tried this.

She was never the weakest character, that spot belonged firmly to the lawbringer

Fixed for accuracy.

Well you assumed wrong and yes i know about all the guessing game and 50/50s...again, you are complaining about the sweep dont you? She cant get one if she doesnt do something before right? If she shield bashes you she can get one but cant get GB because you are to far away...If she attacks you, still cant get one if you block. So i dont know whats the problem here? Anyway are you in high ranked matches? Because no one in high ranked matches is complaining about characters being op, especially Valk bloddy hell....
