What Battle Healer Does
The short version: Battle Healer is a 4-elixir Rare troop that heals friendly troops. RoyaleTracker’s card text says each attack gives off a healing aura. She unlocks in Frozen Peak (Arena 8).
She is a support fighter. Every swing heals the troops near her, so she makes a push last longer.
What changed: SeeMeta lists a rework on August 4. Damage went from 148 to 268 (+81.1%), hit speed from 1.5 to 2 seconds (slower), hitpoints from 1,717 to 1,920 (+11.8%), and heal radius from 4,000 to 3,000 (-25%). She no longer heals herself. What it means: she is more of a fighter and less of a healer. The tracker card text still mentions herself, so it is older than the rework. Arena 12, but RoyaleTracker says Arena 8.
| Stat | Value |
| Elixir cost | 4 |
| Rarity | Rare |
| Type | Troop (melee, healer) |
| Unlocks | Frozen Peak (Arena 8) |
| Evolution / Hero | None |
| Last change | August 4, 2026 (SeeMeta) |
The rework made her hit harder and heal less, and the lists in the tracker sample are small. If more players try her, a clearer picture will show in a few weeks. The negative effect: a card that was a healer and is now a fighter may disappoint players who still play her the old way.
Best Battle Healer Decks Right Now
RoyaleTracker printed seven Battle Healer decks. The best, a Royal Giant list with Witch and Goblin Barrel, won 55.4% over 316 battles. An Evo Witch and Evo Musketeer list with Hero Tombstone won 51.2% over 361. The other five won between 39.0% and 46.3%.
The pattern: every sample is small: the largest, at 615 battles, won 42.1%. Elixir Golem is in two lists and Mother Witch in two. The two lists with Elixir Golem won 43.6% and 43.0%. The heaviest list, at 5.0 elixir with Three Musketeers, won 42.1%. What it means: there is not enough data to name a best list yet.
| Build | Cards | Avg elixir | Win rate (sample) |
| Witch, Royal Giant and Goblin Barrel | 3.9 | 55.4% (316 battles) | |
| Evo Witch, Evo Musketeer and Hero Tombstone | 4.3 | 51.2% (361 battles) | |
| Evo Witch, Princess and Mirror | 3.1 | 46.3% (566 battles) | |
| Evo Executioner, Evo Bats and Elixir Golem | 3.4 | 43.6% (438 battles) | |
| Evo Mega Knight, Evo Firecracker and Electro Dragon | 3.9 | 43.0% (251 battles) | |
| Wizard, Three Musketeers and Mirror | 5.0 | 42.1% (615 battles) | |
| Hero Bowler, Boss Bandit and Royal Recruits | 4.6 | 39.0% (264 battles) |
Try it yourself: open the Clash Royale Deck Builder with the Evo Witch and Princess build in the table above, 46.3% in the tracker sample (566 battles), already loaded. It averages 3.1 elixir, the cheapest Battle Healer list, and the tracker counts Mirror as zero. Swap Mirror for another card to test a fuller list.
How to Play Battle Healer
- Play her behind a tank. She heals the troops near her, so keep them close.
- Pair her with Witch. The two best lists both run Witch or Evo Witch.
- Do not count on self-healing. After August 4, she does not heal herself.
- Use her damage. Her hit is now 268, so she is a fighter, not a pure healer.
- Skip the heavy Three Musketeers list. It won 42.1%.
The move: next game, send Battle Healer in just behind your Royal Giant, so the first hits heal the tank.
Evo Witch is in two of the seven lists, and SeeMeta lists her rework on August 4, the same day as the Battle Healer rework. If both settle, the 51.2% list may hold. The negative effect: two reworks on the same day make it hard to tell which one moved the win rate.
How to Counter Battle Healer
- Fireball: it hits her and the troops standing next to her.
- Split the push: if the tank dies, the heals do not matter.
- Splash damage: Poison or Arrows hits the troops she is healing.
- Use a building: a Cannon or Tesla keeps shooting while she hits it.
The catch: do not chase the healer first. Kill the tank, and she has no one to heal.
Is Battle Healer Worth Using Now?
Is it worth it? Maybe. Two lists won over 50%. The catch: the samples are small, and five lists won under 47%.
What to remember: Battle Healer is a support fighter now, and the data on her is still thin.
Goblin Barrel is in the best list, and SeeMeta lists its first hit speed cut from 0.4 to 0.3 seconds on October 6. If the card gets stronger, the 55.4% list may hold. The negative effect: a list with 316 battles may not show the change yet.
Go deeper: For the cards in her lists, read the Witch guide, the Mother Witch guide and the Goblin Barrel guide. Use the Clash Royale Deck Builder to compare your own eight cards against this one; it shows the average cost live.
