    Can valk get nerfed?

    Seriously, She keeps spamming the sweep attack and she's unstoppable, When she does the combo i get up and she gb and does i again till im dead.

    This game is so balanced with some op classes and the spamming. Come on Ubisoft. This isn't fun.

    At least fix the parrying. You Light attack, Parry, GB Then that's a free strong attack.

    GB Has to be one of the most broken things in this game, Highlander keeps GB you then he does his combo by ramming into you then he does a heavy attack and repeat. The spam in this game is rediculous.

    As i mentioned, Valk is one of the things that is really annoying but not just valk, Go look at Highlander, Raider, Berserker, and others with the stupid combos after GB.

    Fix GB Or remove it, please. It's stupid how you can do your massive combos afterward to get rid of your hp by half or almost half.

    IF You want to Keep GB This annoying so heroes can spam their combos after GB Then, Give warden all of apollyons moves.

    The sweep is annoying yes, but it's relatively easy to dodge due to its speed. She is otherwise quite weak (unsafe dodge attacks, weak heavies, weak lights.)

    You can counter GB now after a parry. Valk's leg sweep is avoidable by just dodging to the side and getting a free GB on her. If she's GBing you after the leg sweep just use counter-GB.

    Spend some time learning how to counter what other heroes can do before you assume everything that beats you is OP.

    Just a thought

    Anyone think this guy is a Warden? Lol

    Maybe at low level play spamming is a big issue, I am not sure. But at mid to high level there is no way someone can do it (with the one exception maybe being lame Highlander a during gank fests, maybe.) unless you consider well timed full block into flail uppercuts spam as I see conq doing that a ton, though I don't hate because it's a boss move.

    The truth is, at all levels of play, some classes rely on certain openers, certain mid-chain attacks, and even certain finishers. I am not sure how this guy qualifies spamming, because for call to leg sweep she has to first perform other attacks and not be blocked.

    Also warden will not get all of appolyons moves, but even if he did, I hope you know it's not like it would be the same experience.. Especially in test your metal II or III. They have monster health pools by round 7, they get buffs like auto regen shields, attack and defense buffs, and they have feats that aren't available to their classes in the game.

    I am not saying you need to get better, I obviously don't know you. It does seem you would really benefit from block training and counter gb training.

    Valkyrie? From For Honor? Nerfed?

    You probably don't realize this, but she is easily the weakest, worst character to play in the game. She'll be getting buffs in the near future, hopefully substantial ones, so I'd back up SEISMIS21's suggestion of doing some block and CGB training.

    Unless you mean Runa in test your metal, I would have to disagree. The sweep is dodgeable, I would recommend eating the second light and preparing for the sweep if you're having issues with it.

    OK HERE A PRO TIP: Don't post anything on forums when your below rep 5 plz.

    Like seriously ? Val nerf ? Just to let you know, she'll soon be reworked to get massively buff, she's easily one of the weakest char of the game right now.

    We all went through it when we first started fighting valk lol just give him some advice. I do occasionally run into good valks, but they don't spam the sweep.

    This.

    Have you even done “Advanced Practice”? It sounds to me like you simply just do not know how to play the game. No offense... but I’m being serious. Everything you just talked about is COMPLETELY coubterable with dodges and -GB.

    I hate to say it, but L2P dude.
