If left unchecked, a single dedicated healer can provide thousands of points of 'free' hitpoints to an attacking push, making it virtually unstoppable.
This guide will teach you the precise tactical maneuvers required to assassinate the backline and neutralize these incredibly frustrating support cards.
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.
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.

Dealing with Clone and Rage Synergy
Healing units are often paired with incredibly gimmicky, high-risk spells like Clone or Rage to create an overwhelming, chaotic push.
The definitive counter to any Clone strategy is a cheap, instant-cast splash spell like the Log, Zap, or Snowball.

Patience and Precision
The visual clutter and constant healing numbers can cause panic, leading to terrible card placements and wasted spells.
Once you learn to surgically remove the support structure of an enemy push, the most terrifying meta decks become trivial to defend.
