Vortex is outweighed by Bump, Cross, and Angle. Meteor is outweighed by Bump for sure (unsure on the others), but overall outclassed by Cross and Angle.

Bump doesn't offer the same control as you would get with 7M. Meteor is heavier than Cross. There isn't any benefit at using it over Meteor. Except when you want your combo to tilt more while moving (for layers which have better contact points on upper or lower part. Or drivers which needs to bank deeper to be more controllable. Like Dm)

I might work for 3 sided layer without increasing too much weight (to increase burst resistance)

Bump, Turn and Lift, all hits much harder. But sometimes getting clean hit is important too. Also, how much angle weights? clean hit is important too. Also, how much angle weights?

except for the fact that for any and all smash attackers, stamina or LAD doesn't mean carp. you ought to use extreme', jolt', hunter' but then why are you using cross instead of bump or something heavier. 
i think it has been fairly well established that as a part slash is for use in KO attack only, so you just wanna add all the weight that you can without removing the raw stamina. LAD is out the window for this bey.

In such a case. Proof would be better. 

Yes, for such a recoily layer, hard hitting layer. It's best to go all attack.

But for some bladers. Ds' can be easier to control and bladers have to worry less about mislaunches.

Bump gives just as much control as Meteor. The benefits of Cross and Bump over Meteor is that they have more LAD than Meteor. Meteor is just straight up outclassed, which is why we don't use Meteor used in the top winning combos at events.

Lift is probably the best offensive frame because it weighs the most. I forgot to mention it. Turn is also an option.

Angle is a little over 4 grams. It's been used in a winning top. I asked the guy about it, and he said it was a good frame.

SV.00C.Ds'(Zan) seems good for a combo that uses Destroy, but you probably want a rubber driver on SV. SV.00L.X' is probably the best combo right now, unless Blitz or Sting are better disk options.

 lift causes scraping is that not a bad thing?

Not on rubber drivers since they grip the stadium hard and it will only scrape when the bey runs out of stamina.

They are trying to balance the metagame by making bursts more frequent. Valkrie’s gt chip isn’t that bad, from what I’ve seen it’s a combination of power having a slightly weak spring and blitz being ridiculously heavy.

It can be understandable for stamina types (defence. Umm. It's purpose is to beat attacker. We need something to counter them right) but why make a attack layer easy to burst?  Shouldn't that will again give an edge to stamina/defence again? Or rather even encourage use of older parts instead. Which not just will hinder sales of TT. But also make it harder to get competitive stamina/defence parts.

Also. Power seems to have spring similar to a Dash driver. To varify I tried SV on A'. It was still bursting (My X' is lost btw. So I used that)

It might be because TT doesn't give a carp about how Bladers think and will just release stuff the way they want. And by using older parts which are either too rarely on sale, it actually boosts their marketability and sales since you're more inclined to buy the time-tested parts instead of the seemingly trash new ones.

We only have 3 Chips to rotate with, so I think it is quite too early to call Slash Valkyrie Layer as bad. A similar thing was said for some other stock combos like Chouzetsu Spriggan and Orb Egis (to name some), but the right combos can bring out the fullest potential of the part

Of course, they do. Well, the GT version has a new bey system so Valkyrie needs its own GT version.
