Updated for Town Hall 18 (October 2026).
The Super Valkyrie is the Super Troop version of the Valkyrie: a tougher, harder-hitting axe spinner who drops a Rage effect when she dies. She takes 20 housing space and can be boosted from Town Hall 12 once your Valkyries are level 7. Her highest level is 12, reached with level 12 Valkyries from Town Hall 17.
How to unlock and boost the Super Valkyrie
She comes from a 3-day boost at the Super Sauna, the building that appears when you reach Town Hall 11. How boosting works in October 2026:
- You need Town Hall 11 and level 7 Valkyries. Level 7 takes a level 10 Laboratory, so Town Hall 12 is the realistic start.
- Each boost costs 25,000 Dark Elixir or a Super Potion. Regular Valkyries can still be trained while it is active.
- You can run two different Super Troop boosts at once, or three during a Super Troop Spotlight event when one of them is the featured troop.
- A boost can be cancelled any time to free the slot. Nothing is refunded and the Super Valkyries from it are removed from your camps.
- Her level is your Valkyrie level. Finish a Valkyrie upgrade in the Laboratory and she upgrades with it.
- To receive her as a donation, your Clan Castle must be level 6 (Town Hall 10).
What the Super Valkyrie does
She spins her axe into everything around her, dealing ground-only splash damage at melee range (0.6 tiles). She moves at speed 24 and has no favorite target: she hits the nearest building, and turns on Clan Castle troops, heroes or Skeleton Trap skeletons when they engage nearby.
Her first swing is slow. After that she attacks every 1.1 seconds, faster than a normal Valkyrie.
Farewell Gift: the death Rage
When she is knocked out, she leaves a Rage zone on the ground. It gives the same damage and speed boost as a level 4 Rage Spell, but covers a smaller 4-tile radius (a Rage Spell covers 5) and runs out sooner. Since January 2026 a defending Super Valkyrie’s death Rage also boosts the defender’s buildings, giving them +60% damage, the same as a Rage Spell Tower.
A Super Valkyrie copied by the Clone Spell won’t drop a Rage if the clone simply runs out of time.
Super Valkyrie levels and stats
| Level | Damage per second | Damage per hit | Hitpoints | Valkyrie research Lab level | Town Hall needed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7 | 250 | 275 | 2,400 | 10 | 12 |
| 8 | 300 | 330 | 2,700 | 11 | 13 |
| 9 | 325 | 357.5 | 2,900 | 12 | 14 |
| 10 | 350 | 385 | 3,400 | 13 | 15 |

| 12 | 405 | 445.5 | 4,500 | 15 | 17 |
For comparison, a level 12 regular Valkyrie has 255 DPS and 2,900 hitpoints in 8 housing space.
How to attack with Super Valkyries
- Keep other troops close. Her Rage zone is small, so it only pays off if the army is right next to her when she falls, for example near the Town Hall or when your own Rage and Haste Spells are used up.
- Use her as a front-line tank whose death powers the next wave, or time her death in the core after a Siege Machine drops her there. Timed well, it also helps your troops get through the poison that Town Halls 14 to 16 release when destroyed.
- Mix her with regular Valkyries. She tanks for them, then her Rage helps them clear the core.
- In a Queen Charge she can tank for the Archer Queen, but she has to die where the Rage covers both the Queen and her Healers to be worth it.
- Some players load her into the Troop Launcher so the Rage lands in the middle of the base, with a few small filler troops so she launches later.
Super Valkyrie on defense
She is a so-so Clan Castle defender. She can’t hit air troops, and a careful attacker can lure her out so her Rage lands somewhere useless. Paired with defenders that can hit air, she still has value, and since January 2026 her death Rage boosts nearby defenses as well as troops. If you have a Rage Spell Tower, it is the more reliable source of defensive rage, because it can’t be baited away.
