The true power of a tank lies in its ability to act as a meat shield for the incredibly dangerous, fragile 'support' units walking behind it.
Choosing the correct support units dictates the entire personality and effectiveness of your deck.
AoE Support Units
These units are designed specifically to solve the tank's biggest weakness: massive swarms of cheap, low-health defenders (like the Skeleton Army or Minion Horde).
The Executioner, in particular, is a top-tier support unit because his axe pierces through enemies, hitting everything in a straight line.
- Pulling all enemy defenders into one clump for his axe is devastating.
- Beware of the 'Valkyrie drop'.
- Always protect your support units.
The Single-Target Assassins and Snipers
If the current meta is dominated by heavy defensive buildings (like the Bomb Tower) or mini-tanks (like the Knight), splash damage support is insufficient.
The Night Witch is historically the most infamous support unit for heavy tanks because she continuously spawns flying bats while dealing heavy melee damage.

Invisible Helpers
Spells cannot be killed by enemy troops, making them the most reliable, guaranteed support in the entire game.
Protect your damage dealers, let your tank absorb the pain, and watch the enemy towers fall.
