Healing and shielding support units are specifically designed to break the fundamental mathematical rules of the game's combat system.

Many novice players make the fatal error of focusing all their defensive damage on the massive tank, ignoring the tiny support unit standing behind it.
The Golden Rule: Kill the Support First
The cardinal rule when facing a healing or shielding composition is to completely ignore the primary tank until the support is dead.

The most reliable way to achieve this is by using specific 'assassin' units, such as the Miner or the Bandit, which can bypass the frontline entirely.

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.

Take a deep breath, identify the primary healer, and execute your assassination plan flawlessly.

Once you learn to surgically remove the support structure of an enemy push, the most terrifying meta decks become trivial to defend.
