I dont want to netroscope or anything but I think Winning Valkyrie should be unbanned in Burst Limited.

Definitely not. It’s honestly way too tight and when you combine that with the fact it has those heavy wall like wings which are unaffected by its recoil it’s not safe to put it against all the lighter layers or satisfactory Cho z layers.

Geist Fafnir and Drain Fafnir can beat it.

Drain Fafnir 0Cross Keep' vs Winning Valkyrie 00Turn Xtreme'

Fafnir: 80% (8 Spin finishes.)

Valkyrie: 20% (2 KOs).

Seeing as xtend+ and destroy dash are banned from limited I doubt Drain Fafnir would lose to a winning Valkyrie combo. Drain Fafnir typically thrives off of weak spring drives like atomic so it probably wouldn’t stand a change against a good winning Valkyrie combo. As for Geist Fafnir, the layer itself is all in all pretty bad so nobody would go out of their way to use it to counter low lad defense and attack combos when it can lose to pretty much anything else.

Did you do it? Winning Valkyrie might be a top tier in the limited format but it can definitely be beaten.

Spriggan Requiem is banned anyway, you shouldve used Fafnir.

Even if Winning Valkyrie is better than Buster Xcalibur, it doesn't mean it cant be countered.

Yeah it does have but banning wV in the limited format will give other attack layer to shine If we unban it the meta will be just like the old days (this is my opinion)

Winning Valkyrie never dominated though.

g2_ Gonna butt in here on this conversation. Winning Valkyrie never dominated in ChoZ because it 1) Did not have access to solid Dash Drivers (until Xtreme') and 2) The META at the time was dominated by many stamina combos that countered it. Though Winning Valkyrie was outclassed in standard, in Limited, it's strong burst resistance, great KO and Burst Attack Potentential,  and Weight (with some variants of wV weighing 20+ Grams), would make it too overpowered for limited. 

Unfortunately, if wV were allowed in limited, it would disrupt the balance the experimental format currently has. Yes, there may be some niche combos that counter it, but if the whole format just becomes being able to counter wV, the format will be unbalanced and become stale.

I disagree Geist Fafnir by itself can only be countered be Bloody Longinus.

gF can also be countered by nL and right spin lads
