NICKMERCS explains why Valkyrie is still meta despite big nerf in Apex Legends NICKMERCS\/RespawnStreaming star Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff believes Valkyrie will still be meta in Apex Legends Season 14 despite being hit with a pretty signifcant nerf. Over the last couple of months, no Legend has caused more headaches for Apex Legends fans than Valkyrie. The Winged Avenger has skyrocketed to the top of the pick rate charts and become a must-use in every format of the battle royale. That dominance has led to plenty of calls from the community for her to be nerfed, especially when it comes to her Skyward Dive Ultimate \u2013 seeing as players can use it to get a free rotation during matches. With Apex Legends Season 14: Hunted, players who have called for a nerf have finally gotten their wish, but NICKMERCS believes she\u2019ll still be viable. NICKMERCS weighs in on Apex Legends Season 14 patch notes As the patch notes for the new Apex Legends season were revealed by Respawn, Nick gave them a thorough once over before giving his thoughts on the long-awaited changes to Valkyrie specifcially. \u201cThis is a much more chill nerf than I thought,\u201d the FaZe Clan star said after going over the patch notes. \u201cI thought it was going to be worse. She has still got beacon, which is f**king huge. That makes her still playable. \u201cListen, it is what it is, that makes her still playable. The fact that she has beacon, you don\u2019t need another beacon character, you\u2019re chilling. Her Ult did get nerfed, her Q got nerfed, and the jets got nerfed the most it seems like,\u201d he added. Some of his viewers quickly suggested that the changes were a \u201cRIP\u201d moment for Valkyrie, and that Seer could be more viable as the beacon-specific part of a trio. As Season 14 unfolds, we\u2019ll see just how big of an impact the nerf has on her pick rate, and whether or not Valk remains viable. Though, we suspect you\u2019ll still be seeing a lot of her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
