Strategies
With
Valkyrie is a unique card, starting without strength points. However, while she is in the player's hand, she gains 2 strength points for every zombie that was destroyed. This allows the player to keep her until late-game when she becomes capable of destroying anything or play her early- to mid-game where she has a decent amount of strength points and can become a threat.
It is best to play this zombie later in the game, due to many zombies having most likely been destroyed at that point, therefore, making this zombie even more powerful. If the player does not want to go offensive at the moment, they can use the Valkyrie due to her high base health, making her tough to defeat, even with little strength, although it can be useless to play her without strength.
Try to keep this in your hand during the mulligan, or at the start of the game to maximize her ability.
Since the Crazy class has a lot of zombies with low health such as Barrel of Deadbeards and Template:PvZH Link, the player shouldn't have much trouble boosting her. The best heroes to use Valkyrie with are Professor Brainstorm and Electric Boogaloo. Professor Brainstorm can use Teleport to play a very powerful Valkyrie on an empty lane during the Zombie Tricks phase without the threat of plant tricks. Lurch for Lunch can also be helpful when Valkyrie is on the field, especially in order to do lots of damage to your opponent. Electric Boogaloo has access to the most zombies with 1 health, so Electric Boogaloo can easily boost Valkyrie more easily and quickly. In addition, he also has access to instant-kill tricks such as Locust Swarm, which can clear the way for Valkyrie along with stat boosting tricks such as Vitamin Z to boost her, or Maniacal Laugh to easily end the game with Frenzy.
If you are using Impfinity, avoid using Firefighter, Mixed-Up Gravedigger, or In-Crypted as they will reset her strength to 0, but he still has lots of imps that are low health that could help boost her.
Against
It is best to bounce Valkyrie if she has high strength since when bounced, she loses all of her strength points. Alternatively, the player can also use an instant kill such as Template:PvZHLink. Avoid having no plants to block this, because you can lose the game easily. Freezing her is also a good idea. If you are playing against Professor Brainstorm, and he plays a lot of cheap and weak zombies, be careful as he can use Teleport and Lurch for Lunch on Valkyrie to end your game quickly. You can also use Shamrocket or Template:PvZH Link if they manage to survive until the next turn.
