Valkyrie

Valkyrie

Legendary · Spirit · Defence · Barbarians

Valkyrie is a Legendary Spirit champion of the Barbarians faction, considered one of the biggest game-changers in Raid. She's among the very few champions able to place Counterattack on her entire team, an effect that turns fights like Clan Boss and Fire Knight into damage races heavily tilted in her team's favor.

Core Strengths & Abilities

Team-Wide Counterattack and DEF-Scaled Shield: Her A2, Stand Firm, is an AoE attack that grants every ally both a Shield and a Counterattack buff, with the Shield's value and her own damage scaling directly off her DEF — letting a tanky Valkyrie absorb hits while her whole team punishes every attack made against them.

Turn Meter Denial on Buffed Targets: Her A1, Denigration, hits twice, cutting the target's Turn Meter by 10% per hit whenever they're carrying any buff, giving her extra tempo control against buff-reliant enemies.

Speed Race Passive: Her passive, Jealousy, boosts her own Turn Meter by 10% every time an enemy places a buff, while simultaneously cutting that enemy's Turn Meter by 10% — a huge help for players who struggle to win the Arena speed race.

Key Weaknesses

DEF-Dependent Shield Value: Her signature team Shield scales off her own DEF, so a build that neglects that stat leaves her team with noticeably weaker protection.

Valkyrie is a defining core champion for Clan Boss, Fire Knight, and Dragon content — capable of anchoring damage output well past 100 million in an end-game Ultra-Nightmare Clan Boss team — and remains a top pick across nearly every other mode as well.
