How to attack with Valkyries

Ok so I looked around on the forums and I found lots of people asking how to attack with Valkyries. These are my techniques:

1. Take one with you to destroy clan castle troops. They are awesome at this since they swing there axe in a deadly circle. I know what you'll say: wizards are better because they do more damage! Well yes and no, if you have high level Valkyries then Valkyries may be more powerful then wizards. Also, Valkyries do more splash damage then wizards and they have more health.

2. You could use Valkyries as giants, like 20 Valkyries and 3 healers some WB and maybe a couple archers.
Problems: Valkyries cost DE, Valkyries do not target defences, Valkyrie takes up more housing space.

Good things: Valkyries cost DE, Valkyries do not target defences(so they will destroy everything in their paths including CC troops that giants ignore and the TH that is millimetres away from the giants), Valkyries have more health,Valkyries have much more DPS.

3. I've been attacked by some Valkyries and pekkas combined with rage spells, they just got one star but I liked to see the zero suit pekkas(Valkyries:rolleyes:) with the pekkas so I thought I'd put it here.:rolleyes:

Those are just my tactics use them if you want or don't, please comment on the tactics and if you know an other way of using Valkyries please say how down bellow. Thanks guys! Super reporting for duty!

​20 Valkyries cost too much DE >_<

I've been maintaining a whole thread on this

But a summary

Uses of the Valkyrie

1) Use a pair to clear CC troops. You have to distract the troops though, otherwise Valkyrie can get blown to bits by wizards or just whittled down by spaced out archers

2) Use 8-10 to blitz the core once cleared. Valkyrie are actually quite powerful in a tight core. Having Giant/Healer or GoWi clear the way and then deploy the Valkyrie so they make a beeline to the core is actually quite effective

3) Valkyrie + Jump - see the post but Valkyrie are actually quite powerful with jump. Their speed and decent attack makes them very powerful with the jump spell - I plan to test out Valkyries + Witches since they are the other unit that works well with jump

4) Valkyrie + Healer - powerful but harder to wield than Giant/Healer. I find using only Valkyrie for ground troops with air troops for support works fairly well. Wizards are great support but they your dealing with allot of unpredictable AI.
