If left unchecked, a single dedicated healer can provide thousands of points of 'free' hitpoints to an attacking push, making it virtually unstoppable.
This is exactly what the opponent wants; while you struggle to kill the Giant, the Healer is constantly undoing all your hard work.
Assassinating the Backline
The cardinal rule when facing a healing or shielding composition is to completely ignore the primary tank until the support is dead.
Deploy your assassin directly behind the enemy push, ensuring it locks onto the healer before the tank can turn around to protect it.
- She heals her entire aura with every swing.
- Wait for the support to cross the bridge before dropping your assassin.
- Use spells to break shields before applying massive damage.
Countering the Gimmicks
When you see these combinations forming, you must react with absolute split-second precision, or you will lose your tower in seconds.
Hover your spell the moment you suspect a Clone play, and drop it the millisecond the blue cloning animation begins on their side of the map.
| Counter Strategy | Execution Detail |
|---|---|
| Fireball / Poison | The absolute safest method; guarantees the death of fragile backline units without risking your own troops |
| Flanking Maneuver | Wait until the tank walks past the bridge, then drop a Valkyrie directly behind the tank to separate the support |
Surgical Defense
The visual clutter and constant healing numbers can cause panic, leading to terrible card placements and wasted spells.
Master the backline dive, and dominate the arena.
