May be a little while. Way too many video ideas atm, which is why I said all of these will take a few weeks. ---

@Athilias @killerman3333 I hit the “Soul wall” and still use Valkyrie. Best Blue Mana generator in the game ---

That is fair, so even though you no longer need souls you like her for her mana generation? If that is correct then that is a very respectable reason to use her. ---

Instead of Necromancy I think one of his traits should generator some souls… maybe im mad ---

IMO all the data shows is a need for DIVERSITY. People look at the charts and think “oh these troops are getting way too much use,” so let’s nerf or change some things with how defend/offense works. I think this is a bad way to go. We just need MORE troops. ---

I’d rather see weak things be buffed than strong things be nerfed. The only real problem I see with the data is that something needs to be added to the game to make non-Valkyrie teams still able to farm souls. ---

Completely agree. I look at the most used troops and nothing screams OP to me. I think the Devs have done a great job balancing in that aspect. Just bring older troops up to snuff and put out newer troops around what people find useful. ---

Buck what the charts say. I’ll run whatever gets me wins. Which is why I’m enamored with Herdmaster/Ettin/Druid/Goblin Rocket. All 4 troops are fully traited, of course. ---

If there was a better Blue Mana generator, Valkyrie would be on the bench ---

Holy cow I just invaded the strangest team I’ve seen. We all know Mab / Valk / Mab / Mercy can be tough but I’ve never seen Valk / Valk / Mab / Mercy before. ROFL ---

I use that team for invasions, but I’ve never set it as a defense. ---

The double Valk team you mentioned is my go to team for invades. Haven’t set it for defense because I figured the AI would mess it up. But on invades it has board control, board manipulation, mana generation, healing and cleansing and looping ability. Impervious makes it kind of useless but for other teams it works quite well.
