There was no way it would be that easy, but Loki made the effort anyway. He dodged the swipe and caught Valkyrie's wrist as it went by, tugging in the direction she was going already to add a little more force. At the same time, he moved in to hook one foot behind hers in an obvious trip while using a little telekinesis to... not lock her other leg in place, but trap it in what would feel like very thick liquid, render it difficult and awkward to move. If all went well, the varying forces would put her on the ground one way or another.

Loki didn't expect it to go well, but he was fascinated to see how she resolved the puzzle.
