The Best Support Cards for Heavy Tanks in Tower Rush
Deploying a massive, high-hitpoint tank like a Golem, Giant, or Lava Hound is only the first step in executing a successful 'Beatdown' strategy.
This guide analyzes the different categories of support troops and how to build an unstoppable, synergistic deathball.
The Splash Damage Sweepers
The most common and fundamental type of support unit is the ranged splash-damage attacker, such as the Wizard, Executioner, or Baby Dragon.
However, splash units usually have lower single-target Damage Per Second (DPS) and are incredibly vulnerable if the tank dies.
- Never place your support unit directly on top of your tank.
- If they use a single-target killer, a splash unit won't help.
- It flies, meaning ground-targeting defenders cannot hit it, ensuring it survives longer behind the tank.
High DPS Backline
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 bats swarm the enemy's single-target defenders (like the Inferno Tower), distracting them while the Night Witch and the Golem crush the building.
| Win Condition | Best Support Synergy |
|---|
| Air Tank | Balloon (for massive instant damage) or Flying Machine (for safe, ranged sniping from across the river) |
| The Ultimate Tank | Night Witch (for bat swarms and melee DPS) and Lightning Spell (to destroy enemy Inferno Towers) |
Magic as Support
A heavy tank paired perfectly with a predictive Log and a Lightning spell can often break through a defense without needing any backup troops.
Building the perfect Beatdown push is like conducting an orchestra; every unit must play its part at the exact right time.
