Valerie Stride
Valerie Stride is a major NPC in Beastieball. She is the current, 7-time reigning champion of the Beastieball League, and coaches the Radical Queens.
Personality
Valerie Stride, as the #1 ranked coach for 7 seasons in a row, is reasonably self-assured, and a little bit cocky. She is dismissive towards the up-and-coming player and towards the #3 ranked Barnes McBride, but does not seem to have any contempt for them. She is simply the best coach, and very aware of that fact.
Story
Stride is first mentioned by name by the Sports King after the player’s second Ranked victory. He introduces her as the 7-time reigning champion, saying that if the player could beat her in the Crown Series, he’d cancel the stadium project in Rutile.
The player doesn’t meet Stride face-to-face, however, until they and Riley meet Stride in an interview featuring Stride and the player. The interviewer mentions that she is one championship away from setting a new world record, and asks if a dark horse like the player could factor into that. She is dismissive towards the player, saying that she hasn’t kept up with what’s “new” or “hype” for fans in a long time, as they’re all simply waiting on her downfall, and that she only focuses on the top.
The player and Riley can spectate a match between Stride and Barnes McBride, the 3rd ranked player. McBride remarks that everyone’s tired of Stride, and he can’t wait to be the one to beat her. Stride dismisses his flair, and quickly shuts him down in Beastieball.
