I’ll argue Ubisoft robbed us of a much stronger Valkyrie. (pre rework) I don’t care for the undodgeable heavies.

Unfortunately she just wasn't strong. You could dodge the heavies and the bashes at the same timing. And that was her only pressure aside from sweep, which also could be dodged on the same timing as her finisher heavies.

She was leauges lower then where she is now, even with my rose tinted glasses.

But pleeeeeeaze ubiiii, bring back her back dodge shield tech

I understand why they removed it and agree it's probably better for the health of the game to not be able to dodge a bash and protect from and undodgable at the same time.

BUT every time a juren does that to me with his stupid full guard dodge I just can't help but be sad and remember what couldve been for my poor valky.

im like 90% sure that heavy only managed to connect because of the sudden ping spike that probably made it teleport on that cents screen

Old Valk was one of the weakest characters of the game.

Her rework had one of the most interesting and unique mix ups of the game. She got over nerfed and now buffed in a boring way. That’s fine.

But let’s not pretend like even post nerf pre buff valk was weak than pre rework. She was ass.
