fix valkyries spear sweep

[UnicornPig]

i keep dodging it but the game wont make me dodge

dodge back?

I dodge it without any problems. Play valk by yourself and learn when she can throw the spear sweep, then you will start pressing dodge as prediction, not reaction

You can't always go by prediction, only bad players are predictable.

you dont need to predict her sweep she can only throw it out after 2 attacks or after shield bash+light. She has a very small window to delay it but the delay is a bit more after she uses it following a heavy. Just dodge when you see the unblockable icon i dont know the window but its pretty reactable. It's also never gauranteed after a throw unless you get wall stunned.

Bro, valk's dodge sweep is easy as ♥♥♥♥ to dodge, you can dodge sideways, you're dodging way too late.
It always comes off an attack, so just be ready whenever they land a hit to dodge.

im not an idiot, guys. ive been playing this game for a long time now and the problem is that valkyries sweep is not predictable in these high levels cus they usually bring in something else but when they actually bring it then its not hard to dodge, but my hero wont dodge the attacks

[mike hawk]

yeah they seem to have changed it , i have not been able to dodge it anymore for like 2 weeks now

I play valk and 75% of the time my opponent simply dodges to the side and they miss it, following with a heavy or something. It's a risky move to do as valk. Shouldn't be too hard to dodge by the looks.

Sidestep works, practice it

im not gonna practice anything, im good at this already but its just weird how i suddenly cant dodge her attack, i think its cus i need to predict it but thats whats hard, cus valkyries dont do that stuff anymore

Stop switching guards, valk sweep is quite reactable
but changing guards just delays your dodge.

Yes please, fix Valk's sweep so it's not completely useless, wish it was a mixup with GB, at least it would looks like a decent move.

If you think Valk's sweep is hard to react to, you should definetely practice something. The sweep is so bad you can't do anything with it except with OOS throws.

There's nothing to predict, it's just a telegraphed slow move, easy to react.
Even if it was 100ms faster it would still be easy to react to.

"im good at this already" "i need to predict it", these two things shouldn't be in the same sentence.

Also delaying it doesn't change the tracking and valk can't press gb fast enough.
