Tomorrow is an important Warriors Den Livestream for this season, it'll likely be disclosing most, if not all of what is coming on August 6th. I hope that there will be some surprises as Ubi has teased (helmetless Valkyrie??...)
I'd like to see if Ubi also releases the full patch notes for the core combat update as Valk had quite an impactful issue with her side light finisher during testing grounds in their bid to nerf light spamming. We'll have to see!

Remember to treat these tips as guidelines for how you play, you needn't strictly follow my playstyle. Have your own. That and also I don't want every player being to instinctively counter everything I do because all the Valks start playing exactly the same. Don't do that to me.

It is important to understand that sometimes you will feel out-gunned by your opponent when playing as Valkyrie, but when you step back and out of the flow of the fight for a moment, you can turn the tides. And it WILL make winning feel a whole lot better lol.
Hope you enjoyed, sub for more and all that stuff :)

Having dabbled around a bit with Peacekeeper in the Testing Grounds a few weeks ago, I definitely miss having a more reliable way of being aggressive with her. Had to play reasonably safe in some situations in the vid, and that's just living the "counter-attacker" life right now. (release the changes soon ubi pls)
Let me know what you think of the changes! I think that the sweep damage is too low now (as you can see), but I can see that Ubi has lowered it according to a certain algorithm. Just means we'll have to sweat harder to kick some ass... harder...?

From what I can see, there are a few damage numbers that need some tweaking, but overall (on PC) the concept of it all seems to be receiving some good rep.
I really like the stamina changes, I think that was the first thing that had to be adjusted in order to make the game more aggressive.

I decided that it was finally time to bring out the Warlord, and what a beast he is. I am still refining what mixups I have with him, and where his all-guard is not the best thing in the world, it's still pretty badass so I'm gonna use it.

Character Summary:
The Hitokiri is an aggressive Heavy. A majority of their damage will be dealt through onslaughts of variable heavy timings, unblockable kicks and relentless trading with the character’s Hyper-Armour. Due to its aggression, the Hitokiri has a reliable source of stamina that depletes at an easy, reasonable rate, emphasising the character’s purpose. The demon of a Samurai is meant to be an executioner, an ideology that shows through the character’s moveset, consisting of many heavy attacks that will grant you an execution on kill. The lack of counter-attacking abilities propels the playstyle of the average Hitokiri player to be aggressive in order to deal damage to their opponent, which is as clarified, intended.
Should the Hitokiri be defensive at all? Of course. As with all characters, a somewhat ultimate balance between offense and defense is always healthy. The Hitokiri has no unblockable opener that guarantees an entry into the character’s mixups; the demon’s mixups are entered through first initiating with a Light or Heavy Attack. Anything thrown out from a neutral stance has risk to it being countered, but not when it is guaranteed from countering an opponent’s attack first, such as parrying. Once the Hitokiri has parried an opponent and administered either a Light or Heavy attack, that is when the onslaught of attacks should begin in order to unlock the character’s full potential when being defensive.[For Honor] - This Is Clearly A High Level Valk Stream You Should Watch. *LIVE*EternalCookie2019-01-13 | Support the stream: streamlabs.com/eternalcookie Thanks for stopping by! :)

Thanks for watching! I've been getting into PK again to mix things up a little, and by no means am I the best with her but I am aiming to get better for sure. I've found that she is best suited for duels or even elimination because she struggles a bit when it comes to anti-ganking. She is really fun though :)

Twitter - twitter.com/Eternal_Cookie[For Honor] - FEAR THE VALKYRIE - Valkyrie Rework Gameplay (Season 7)EternalCookie2018-08-06 | Still learning the new Valk and haven't played a 4v4 mode with her in a long time, she's definitely a lot better in them since the rework. Unsure about why her Sweep trips teammates tho, imo it's just unnecessary and it's extremely annoying for anyone on the same team. Don't get me wrong, it's funny and all, but I'm certain that this is gonna need changing in the coming updates. Hate to be a kill-joy but it's just a bit too much as of now lol
Twitter - twitter.com/Eternal_Cookie[For Honor] - NEW VALK EXECUTION SEASON 7 - Valkyrie Gameplay (Season 6)EternalCookie2018-07-28 | Okay I know I said that the last execution Valk got was my favourite (Judgement Call), but not anymore. I've always wanted more throat directed executions with Valk since they're always pretty brutal since her spear fits the job perfectly. Spearfishing has a mix of brutality and disrespect, couldn't ask for more ;)
Twitter - twitter.com/Eternal_Cookie[For Honor] - HIGH LEVEL VALKYRIE BRAWLS - Valkyrie Gameplay (Season 6)EternalCookie2018-07-24 | Hope you all enjoy the vid! :)
Despite the incoming rework for Valkyrie, I'm having a very hard time playing her as of now, especially on PC where everything she does is pretty damn reactable. As you may have seen with the Kensei I went up against in this vid, I had trouble opening him up since he was a pretty passive player, but overall this seems to be a trend that occurs whenever I start to win a match with Valkyrie. I've found an abundance of players who start to turtle up when I gain the lead in a match and who can blame them, they aim to win. But, it makes the gameplay and in turn, the content I'm trying to acquire, painful to watch. So for those of you wondering, this has been a factor as to why I haven't uploaded any vids for a while, but I'm aiming for this to change in the near future.
Valk Rework? - reddit.com/r/forhonor/comments/8tg8a8/supposedly_this_is_the_warden_and_valkyrie_rework[For Honor] - PEACEKEEPERS LETHAL REWORK - Peacekeeper Gameplay (Season 6)EternalCookie2018-05-20 | So I picked up the new Peacekeeper and tbh I'm having a ton of fun with her. I have yet to nail down some of her mixups, but as a Valk Main - landing lights is a big deal so excuse me for wanting some satisfaction in the "FeelsBad" life.
Nevertheless I have found a mixup with PK that catches people more often than not, it's a light (usually after a heavy parry) into a heavy feint into a heavy cancel into bleed. I try not to do it more than 2 or 3 times a match however, as my opponent will usually land the parry on the bleed cancel and make me wonder where my health went. And trust me, it can go fast if you're not careful with Peacekeeper, which is another thing I like about her rework. Before her rework, her low health wasn't so much as a problem because her damage was pretty high and she'd most likely kill you before you got a chance to touch her. With the rework, you need to be more careful and play smarter if you want to succeed with her, which I think is great and I think Ubi did a good job on her re-balancing, but I guess we'll have to wait and see how it goes.
And don't worry guys, I'm still gonna main Valk :)

Quick tip with Valk when going into 4v4s, she isn't that great at them since she has low damage, low health, and high recovery times. But she can be pretty decent when it comes to supporting your teammates when you use your shield tackle to knock your opponents over, so be sure to utilize it :)

SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHANNEL - youtube.com/channel/UCWfvDvblRRniqQ4TvRGI4xg[For Honor] - CHOOSER OF THE SLAIN - Valkyrie Gameplay (Season 5)EternalCookie2018-05-06 | So, with Valk having most of her delays removed and no confirmation of a rework for her in Season 6, it's gonna be a hard season for all 12 of us who play her. Quick tip for those of you who wanna start using her, the sweep you can do in her normal mixups is hella predictable, even more so without delaying. However, the sweep you can do after an uncharged shield tackle (Valk's all guard mode charge attack) can still be decently delayed, that's why compared to my older gameplay, I'm starting to use shield tackle more often when I wanna sweep someone. That's not to say that the "normal" sweep is something you should never do tho, since it can catch people off guard and a few of it's start up frames can still be skipped if you do attempt to delay it, but it's not the same as it used to be.
SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHANNEL - youtube.com/channel/UCWfvDvblRRniqQ4TvRGI4xg[For Honor] - MASTERING THE SHOULDER PIN - Valkyrie Gameplay (Season 5)EternalCookie2018-04-23 | Valk's shoulder pin is basically her deflect that applies a decent amount of bleed damage as well as a substantial 1 physical damage. It's performed by dodging into an attack at the right time and pressing the heavy attack button. From there you have two options. 1, a guaranteed shield crush (guardbreak button) to drain your opponent's stamina and flow into some sweet mixups. Or 2, perform a dodge attack in any direction that isn't the one your opponents guard was already in if you wanna get some more damage in. And yes, it's guaranteed so long as you dodge attack in the right direction.
For those of you wondering, I'd do a deflect into shoulder pin (or guardbreak depending on your situation) over a parry since it's Valk's highest damage dealing counter attack at the moment. However the dodge can be easily baited and Valk's dodge recovery is bad as it is so use it wisely!

Let me know if any of you wanna see anything in particular, I'm currently about to start work on a Valkyrie guide for Season 5 but if she's gonna be reworked/buffed in season 6 (which in my opinion seems likely) then I'm not sure how useful the guide would be. Nevertheless I'll probably still make it.
May make a video on my thoughts on some Valkyrie changes, with her rework/buff or whatever hopefully being next season. Every night I pray to the holy For Honor devs. Every night.

Not saying she doesn't need a rework tho, if she could have one of those then, that'd be great.
