If left unchecked, a single dedicated healer can provide thousands of points of 'free' hitpoints to an attacking push, making it virtually unstoppable.
This is exactly what the opponent wants; while you struggle to kill the Giant, the Healer is constantly undoing all your hard work.
The Golden Rule: Kill the Support First
If you successfully eliminate the support, the massive tank becomes a slow, expensive sitting duck that your towers can easily dispatch.
Alternatively, a perfectly timed heavy spell like a Fireball or Poison can instantly vaporize the support units while simultaneously damaging the tank.
Use it to physically pull the healer away from the tank she is trying to heal.A Valkyrie is great, but a heavy spell is usually more reliable against a dedicated healer.Track their elixir carefully.
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.
Cloned units always have exactly one hitpoint, regardless of the original unit's health, making them incredibly fragile to any form of area damage.

Patience and Precision
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.
