Energy Layer - Valtryek: Difference between revisions

For the Takara Tomy release of '''Valtryek''', known as '''Valkyrie''', it was one of the best Layers for Attack Combinations at the time, excelling in both Burst and KO Attack due to its aggressive shape and the angles of the Layer's wings. Furthermore, the four teeth of '''Valkyrie''' are tall in length, which allows it to withstand its own recoil. However, before the release of [[Energy Layer - Xcalius|Xcalibur]], and like [[Energy Layer - Legend Spryzen S3|Legend Spriggan]] and [[Energy Layer - Spryzen Requiem S3|Spriggan Requiem]], the teeth of '''Valkyrie''' would wear down with use over time. As such, it is best to have multiple copies of this Layer and be prepared to replace it.</onlyinclude>

'''Valkyrie''' can be put to use in the Attack Combination '''Valkyrie''' [[DiskForge Disc - Heavy|Heavy]]/[[DiskForge Disc - Gravity|Gravity]] [[Performance Tip - Xtreme|Xtreme]]. '''Valkyrie'''<nowiki/>'s strong Burst and KO Attack potential is bolstered by [[DiskForge Disc - Heavy|Heavy]]/[[DiskForge Disc - Gravity|Gravity]]'s weight and [[Performance Tip - Xtreme|Xtreme]]'s speed while [[DiskForge Disc - Gravity|Gravity]]'s greater Outward Weight Distribution increases the speed of [[Performance Tip - Xtreme|Xtreme]]. '''Valkyrie'''<nowiki/>'s unworn teeth are capable of withstanding the increased Burst risk of heavy Discs and high friction Tips.

'''Valkyrie''', at the time, was one of the best Layers for Attack Combinations and remained as the best Attack Layer until the release of the God Layer System, where it then became outclassed by [[Energy Layer - Xcalius X3|Sieg Xcalibur]] and [[Energy Layer - Luinor L3|Nightmare Longinus]] and became too light to remain competitive. Furthermore, with the release of the Cho-Z Layer System, especially with the release of [[Energy Layer - Wonder Valtryek V4|Winning Valkyrie]] and [[Energy Layer - Buster Xcalibur|Buster Xcalibur]], '''Valkyrie ''' has become severely too light to remain competitive.

Aside from the center of the Energy Layer being filled in the facilitate its QR Code for the Beyblade Burst App, Hasbro's '''Valtryek''' is visually unchanged from Takara Tomy's '''Valkyrie ''' with the same triangular and high-recoil design.

While the unchanged design may imply the same high Attack potential that '''Valkyrie ''' had, the slopes of '''Valtryek''' are weak; weaker than the strength of a mint-conditioned '''Valkyrie'''<nowiki/>'s teeth<nowiki/>, making it prone to losses by Burst, which is further exacerbated due to its aggressive design being the same as '''Valkyrie'''<nowiki/>'s. As such, '''Valtryek''' is outclassed by, though still comparable to, [[Energy Layer - Roktavor|Roktavor]] and [[Energy Layer - Xcalius|Xcalius]]. However, with the release of SwitchStrike Layers such as [[Energy Layer - Xcalius X3|Xcalius X3]] and [[Energy Layer - Luinor L3|Luinor L3]], '''Valtryek''' is also too light be competitive.
