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.
If your support units perfectly counter the opponent's specific defensive strategy, your tank will march directly to the Princess tower unhindered.
Clearing the Path
The most common and fundamental type of support unit is the ranged splash-damage attacker, such as the Wizard, Executioner, or Baby Dragon.
Once the tank falls, the splash unit is immediately targeted by the Princess tower and dies quickly; they absolutely rely on the meat shield to survive.
- Pulling all enemy defenders into one clump for his axe is devastating.
- Smart opponents will wait for your tank to cross, then drop a Valkyrie directly ON your support units, killing them instantly.
- Always protect your support units.
High DPS Backline
You need high-DPS, single-target snipers like the Musketeer, Flying Machine, or Night Witch to rapidly melt through thick defensive lines.
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
Finally, never underestimate the power of pure spells acting as your primary support for a tank.
The slow march to victory is unstoppable if supported correctly.
