Valkyrie Rework

The valkyrie is an unpopular troop. It is unloved by many and many people can't use it well. What I propose is a Valkyrie rework. The Valkyrie will not spin in one spot, instead, she will spin on the closest building and then spin onto the next two closest buildings and return to the original building. She can bypass walls and is invulnerable during her spin of death, but she becomes exhausted and rests for a second, giving her a chance to be killed.

Making her invulnerable while attacking would be too OP giving other troops the chance to destroy everything around her since she has high hp. There are people using her to 3-star strategies so i would say she is unloved until used properly.

Skipping walls would be OP... Walls would become useless as thier are many troops getting jump or fly ability... Also invulnerability during spin is OP...

Features that are OP:

1. Invulnerable while spinning
2. Can bypass walls

Things that weaken the valk:

1. If she moves from building to building all the time, wasting time, instead of taking out the most buildings simultaneously like she does now.

On a related note, valks are underused overall in this game, but they are used quite frequently by those in the war community (TH8 and TH9).

They lose effectiveness against infernos just like most other troops. This drawback has been discussed in other threads (I remember two in the recent past; you can search and find them easily).

So the valks need a change (or maybe the infernos do) but not in the way the poster suggests.

Insanely OP! Invincible while spinning? NO... JUST NO.... Unloved? Tell it to Valhalla... http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...kyrie-Handbook

Valks are a perfectly viable component of a kill squad in a hybrid attack. (Depending on the base of course) As long as I get the proper funneling they almost always cut center. Just don't bring to many. Just enough to destroy the core. Though I'm sure some people may have excellent strats with mass valks...I just don't know of any. Like any troop they need to be maxed. If you tried them at L1 or 2 against a max th9 then yeah they might suck...

All of the above ^

Please don't change a thing about valks (although if you want to reduce their DE cost, I could get behind that).

As others have eloquently pointed out, these little ginger beauties are perfect the way the are, leave them alone!

Way too over powered.

I love the valks. The only downside is the cost.

The only issue with the Valks are their long training time and somewhat large housing space. The only buff needed is a change in housing space and cost.
