valk buff idea

so I was thinking of some ways to increase the valk's popularity and make them a formidable foe in war. I came up with these ideas and I would like some feedback.

• valks get a larger splash area. they can target buildings with one tile in between them and still be able to damage both.
• valks get a DPS boost (124 to 170 at max, same as lvl6 wiz)
• valks also get an HP boost (1200 to 1400 at max maybe?)
• reduced train time from 8 to 6 minutes
• increased housing space from 8 to 10 (I feel that they'd be OP if they stayed at 8 spaces with these changes)

so what do you guys think of these changes? great, OP, UP, etc?

Dps boost does not needed; they are already hit harder than pekka at th9

Hp boost does not needed; their hp at lv4 is already surpassed pekka lv3's by 20%

Reduce time training is not needed; SC ALREADY decrease it from 15 minutes.

Increase housing space is not needed, it's housing space and stats meant to match pekka's as three valk roughly equal one pekka in term of stats.

Larger attack radius, THAT'S WHAT WE NEED :D Although i'm not sure if they can hit more than two buildings at a time with their current AI even they increase it further, but at least valk can hit buildings behind and next to walls, which is awesome enough.

it's more to make them viable at TH10 and to increase their popularity overall

I'd be happy if they simply got a speed boost.
Only problem I ever had with them was the time it took them to re-position between attacks.

Agreed that the Valk just needs range boost. Maybe per upgrade , it increases by 0.3 tiles ??

In such a way , she can cover many 3x3 at LV 4... I think she can destroy 6 mines / collectors if they are placed close together in a 3 by 2 matrix ... sweet !

Valks are absolute beasts. Check out Onehive and gadi hh footage. I use them on my 70k 30/30 th9 constantly.

is going through all these changes, why not just keep the valk and add a new troop?

Then let's make them become more beastly :3
An increased attack radius, increased speed,additional level, woohoooo

I'd love to see them hit buildings behind walls while they're busy tearing the walls apart in the middle of base, or 3-4 buildings in one blow without being too overpowered.

As troublesome as it is, people will have to design base that have huge gaps between buildings in order to counter it.

My concern is this. In arranged wars in the fair play war community, every th9 gets 3 starred with 0-a few of the th10s having to drop down to clean up th9s. The war comes down to who can get the most th10 3 stars or a draw with the win going to the highest %2star on the th10s.

If valks are buffed at th9 then this will close the gap between the average clans and the top fair play clans. I can't imagine anything worse then getting % wins or winning by 1 th10 3 star vs a clan with the skill level of gowipers.

A better idea for me is simply an additional lvl of valks at th10 or a damage reduction vs infernos maybe. while not everyone is at this level, if you continue to play this is ultimately where you'll end up. So it does in the long run, effect everyone apart from the part timers and trophy pushers I guess.

Increased in damage radius sounds interesting.

Definitely they hey need a shorter training time, even if temporary, for people to give them a go.

if they are so good, why do I never see them used in attack in war?
