Valkyrie is broken and you know it
'Nuff said.
Forum Discussion
Lots of complaining in here but not one suggestion on how to balance her.
So as an actual valk main for a season or so now I'll go first.
The only way I see is to speed up the amount of jet boost used at a time or slow down the regen on it.
The rockets never bothered me at all when I wasn't playing her and I can say from playing her they aren't that good. If you die because of them that's your fault.
Her ultimate likely needs a longer cooldown. My friends are amazed how fast I get it back.
@hayhor My question is.... When did she become broken or to strong? As someone who played her for about half a month non stop i can say... I was easily being countered and shot. Even in my ult i was still being shot and at times killed mid air. Her rockets can a lot of times get you killed or be over thrown quite easily. I feel she is in a good place at the moment.
- @E9ine_AC In certain situations I can see here being considered OP. My kd with her is about 25% higher than any other legend. It is because I die less. Why? Because the jetpack and ultimate allow me to escape to height or fly across the map. I think that is most people's frustrations but again, no one said so who knows.
- @hayhor I mean my kd is much higher when i only play wraith or octane as well. Both offer the same advantage imo. Not quite the same but similar. Its all about the user behind the legend i suppose. Even with her get out of jail free cards she is more annoying like a pathfinder who just grapples above or away. But there are multiple legends with similar abilities which is why i felt she is on par.
There are a lot of ways to balance her but it would make her less fun. Because basically no lie:
Her passive is fly letting you get above heads to shoot down easy
she has area effect stun missiles
she has redeploy AND reveal meta whenever she drops
That’s really too much for one character. Think about that and compare to Path (who i dislike but this is about balance)
I would take away both reveal and stun completely. And yeah, that’s right it’s less fun. But fair.
