I hope you strictly play money maps, because I don't see how you could possibly think Valks are useless.

Every LT game I play, I'll always get at least 4 valks to back up about 8 wraiths in any game. Air dominance is key in expanding. Those valks can mean the difference between life or death in any TvT or TvZ game when engaged in Air to Air combat.

Don't believe me? Watch this replay. I'm not sure if I'm fend0r or coRtALoS in this replay, but I'm the top center Terran player. ;)

Alright, well I mean you posted a somewhat serious question in the forums considering you made a new thread on it. Just wanted to make sure anyone else reading this didn't immediately think they suck.

Yeah, they're not too effective vs Carriers or BCs, however they own most light air units and really are one of the most effective anti-air units in the game. Get 4 or 5 of them and even scourges won't touch you. ;)

Valks, along with the green cloud thing can be setremely deadly, especialy against overlords VS zerg.
