Heheh, so you've noticed that too? Considering th9 has access to lv4 valkyrie while pekka is only lv3....

I think they should just remove the multi targetting feature of IT; aoe turrets are already ridiculously lot.

I use them fairly regularly in my defensive Clan Castle. As a town hall five, her coupled with a wizard and some archers can sometimes COMPLETELY end an attack. And it is quite a surprise to find a valk running out at your army in wars. She is overpowered, likely not in the way SC intended, but using her as a defense troop is far unbalanced. Can't wait to be able to get dragons in my CC. Two days until I go TH6.

I find Valkyrie very strong in terms of offense , but I don't use her. Why ? As you said , she is easily blown by ST.

To combat this problem and empower her , I was designing a Dark Spell called Size spell : Which will make the Valkyrie ( and other troops too ) bigger ( Thus more range ) , stronger and immune to ST.

I hope that will make her useful !!!

No experienced valk user thinks that spring traps are a serious problem.

I second this.

As a th8, 5-7 valks with a heal are more than enought to wreck the core in a matter of seconds and still survive to clean up buildings after hogs or loons are done with the remaining defenses. As for th9 i've never seen any effective 3* strat that involves more than 8 valks (and 8 lv4 valks is really really big).

Spring Trap throws up to 15 housing space. That means only 1 valk can be lost by 1 spring trap. Whereas 3 giants/hogs can be lost with 1 spring trap. Its alot easier to lose 3 giants, hogs, then 1 valk. On top of that, Ill happily lose 1 valk over 3 hogs.

When I am attacking with GoVaLo, I bring 9 Valkyries personally. However, I am a TH9 and from my experience, the middle of TH9 bases have many high hitpoints buildings that need to be swiftly taken down. With the assistance of a Heal and Rage, my Valks can clear the core in a matter of seconds, and burst out the other side of the base still holding up strong.

The only thing I think is needed is to give a buff to Valkyries at TH10/TH11. With Inferno Towers, Valkyries get taken down quickly, although they are particularly good against Mixed Infernos: they swarm in a medium sized group to make sure Single Inferno resets multiple times, and have decent health in order to survive for a while under the beam of a Multi Inferno.
