If Valks used 7 spaces instead of 8...?

[paddy1888]

you sure pekka is only troop that doesn't get tossed by a spring trap?

I think the troll forgot about golems. Also the various air troops that fly above spring traps.

I haven't used them much, save for testing them out. It could have a difference with one less space taken up.

I tell ya. WHAT NOOBS!!!!!

I can't believe how uninformed you fools are regarding Valkyries. These red headed crazy girls are quite possibly the best troop in the lot. I can wreck bases armed with a few wizards and wb, hero's and healers. Check you defense logs, I probably hit you already. They step on a big bomb still ok, say that for wizard, hog or barch troops, they get tossed on a spring trap ..ok.. the only thing that doesnt is a pekka. They are beasts straight up the horror of all TH I wreck.

Go back to school boyz

VALKRIES RULE!!!!!

BTW Id use em if they took up 10 spaces

You arent wrong for the most part, I love Valks too, but you misread the person who mentioned spring traps. He wasnt knocking the Ginger lovelies, he was just dropping knowledge on the OP as to why we are better off keeping them at 8 housing spaces. If are going to insult someone you should make sure you know what you are responding to or run the risk of sounding like a noob yourself.

As we all know, spring traps can launch up to 15 troop space, thats why you can lose up to 3 giants and/or hogs when they hit spring traps. Valks taking up 8 spaces each actually protects large groups from spring traps since 2 valks is 16 spaces, just barely too much to launch 2, meaning one spring trap will only ever toss one valk.

If you drop them to 7 spaces each, that would be a huge nerf to these glorious red headed goddesses because, sure, now you can carry one extra beauty into battle but now 2 valks is only 14 spaces so each spring trap now dispatches 2 at a time instead of one. All of a sudden, even though you brought more, they are gone much faster.

Class dismissed.

It's amazing how you mention Valkyries in a thread and magically Nio appears
Valks are ok the way they are, their lack of popularity is due to players with no skill, they're tricky and take a lot of time to understand their AI but are definitely worth it. People don't know how to use them and often think it's the most erratic troop in the game, it has nothing to do with its cost or its housing space.

Its not as simple as just making them one less space. Something does need to be re-worked about them, even using spells on them sometimes (mainly rage) can be pointless as they run right out of it. Making them one less space doesn't really solve the issue.
Now if they did extra damage to walls, that might make them a little more interesting...

heal valks (unless up against an inferno) not rage.. a group of valks being healed leaves the heal spell at full health whereas a group of valks that leaves a rage doesn't.

If he said only ground dps troop, would you feel better?

In other words, your opinion is 100% irrelevant.


First reply nailed it. Don't want 2 leaving on a spring trap. Not worth the one space reduction that only ever so slightly allows you to bring more troops.

Great post here.

started using govalo and it's great. I can only do it on certain bases but I always get 3 stars on those bases. Valks may not be the always used troops but they are far from worthless.

In my opinion I would not use them tbh I have not train a single valk for me they are not a priority to upgrade.call me a noob or whatever you like but it really depends on the way a coc players play's his game.

Thus making your opinion completely irrelevant.. If you've never used them, how can you possibly say they're bad? But with grammar like that, how can we expect you to be logical?
