Parry Stun and Grab, Valkyrie Sweep | Forums

[Recklessroyal29]

You all have made the worst error with this. When a character is parried they can be grabbed and can't counter the grab, so they have no point but to either get hit, then if they are out of stamina they absolutely can't fight back. Then on top of that the Valkyrie has a grab can knock you around then sweep you, now this wouldn't be a problem if they couldn't hit you on the ground twice witth two light attacks or once with a heavy, you have absolutely no way to protect yourself especially if they spam it, lord, you guys clearly don't test your characters or their abilities, do better.

You know what man?! i have been in the same situation before. and i know how to counter it. but the problem is. devs in video games dont expect people to abuse certin bugs and exploits. player who dont want to actually learn the game and get better they will always rely on this kind of techniques. i really hope things will get better soon.

1. With the defensive meta patch coming supposedly soonish, parrying will most likely see some sort of change. Maybe no free GB after parry, but parrying should not be made weak or useless so the Devs are working hard to find a good middle ground.

2. Every single hero in the game can hit you with a heavy when you are on the ground so I seriously don't know why you are complaining about Valk.
Valks spear sweep is very easy to dodge when you are switched on, and she's super punishable from it.
Her second light was already slowed substantially, every single game I play with her someone can parry it, which never used to happen before season 2.

1. The attack you are talking about is .... parry -> gb -> headbutt -> 2x light -> speersweep -> heavy (which is the most rewarding combo the Valk has and she needs a lot of Stamina to do it) =52 DMG

2. This Combo only works if the enemy is out of Stamina. (which means you my friend where attacking relentless and didnt watch your Stamina at all.)

3. If you think this is OP because its easy to achive... play Berseker (Parry -> GB -> Throw -> 1x Side Heavy 1x Top Heavy) *works only while enemy is out of Stamina = 92 DMG

You can sweep immediately after the headbutt, the two lights aren't needed.

If the enemy is out of Stamina.. you dont need to sweep because he will fall down after the headbutt.

This combo is the most rewarding mixup a Valk can do. ( If you sweep after the Headbutt you lose Stamina and you can only follow with 1x heavy)

you do the 2 light while he his falling on his back and the sweep is guaranteed (without stamina).Therefor my heavy after a sweep is rarely guaranteed , i must be doing something wrong.
