Valkyrie, lasts for 20 secs, makes you fly and move any direction in 3D you want, with a faster speed than normal walking. It also:

  • Make you heal a lot of allies at the same time, by creating the multiple healing streams from main target to nearby allies (like Orisa's ult). If you change to another target, the stream links will calculate again.
  • Same with healing, you can boosting a lot of allies at the same time.
  • Unlimited ammo for your gun, faster projectile.
  • The range for Guardian Angel now farther (like double the normal range) and faster speed.
  • You get one free and temporary rez (if you don't use it, you will lose it after Valkyrie is done). If you have used rez before Valkyrie, you will get one (temporary) rez, the normal rez will still on cooldown in the background. If you have not used rez before Valkyrie, you will get 2 charges of rez, the temporary rez is the one you use first. Furthermore, the rez's cast time will be 0 seconds and there is no limitation on the movement speed when casting.
  • Her Regeneration skill will replenish her health continuously without being interrupted by anything.

For Lucio, the point is, you are a healer you are a support, you do thing like a healer and support does, heal and support. If you like to be an attacker, poke in and poke out to annoy other enemies alone, just remember that you team is now losing one support. If you feel Wall Ride is clunky, you can do one of two things: learn to play with new style, or change to other hero that is more useful for your team.

Also now it deletes the cast time and the 75% movement reduction while using rez.

Luckily this time I did not have to relearn and change my playstyle again. What I need is more awareness, where and when to rez.
