Her ult is really underwhelming.

Most melee weapons do more damage than it and you are NOT immune to knockdown.

It's basically equivelant to equipping Obex without any kind of reach mod or power attack and because of all the flashy lights going on around you it's really hard to see enemies and then actually hit them. You can't use any other weapon while it's active and instead have to wait out the duration.

You don't get a speed buff. I'm unsure if the melee aura mod helps with damage.

The only thing Good about this ult is the invincibility to damage; so why not use Trinity instead?

Her second ability costs 75 and it's not that big of an improvement for the cost. The stun/damage on her third ability is really weak and if you spam it you will be gunned down by all other enemies outside of it's tiny range.

For being a berserker; She's not that powerful. She's slow and her signature ability is very underpowered.

As a tank; Rhino, Trinity, and Frost all have better damage mitigation and utility. Rhino Roar is also cheaper than her compareable ability with larger ally range.

As for Bruisers. Frost and Ash deal far more damage at all times. Ash's Shuriken build with Fleeting expertise and Streamline deals massive damage. You can't spam your Rip Line that much as you have to wait for it's full animation. Loki's Radial Disarm is better than her Ult. I can kill enemies far more quickly with a rhino and a melee weapon than Valkyr and her ult.

She doesn't even have vital sustain to keep her alive. Armor only matters when you can get your health back. Shielding is the superior stat of which hers is severely gimped.

All in all. I do not recommend you get her with plat until they buff her abilities.
