Enhanced Unit Ability: Remedy

[Part 3 of the Enhanced Unit Ability Concept]

Purpose: Late-game balance, unit viability, Inferno countermeasure

Implementation: Academy/Proving Grounds

Primary Beneficiary: Healer

Details: The most common use of the Healer in TH10 or TH11 offensives is the AQ Walk strategy. Otherwise, they are a rare sight. This upgrade would allow healing through the intense burning effect of the Inferno Tower, but at a reduced effectiveness. In other words, whether your units are under the effects of the Inferno or not, they will only receive a percentage of the normal restoration. As with all of my Enhanced Abilities, the User can toggle them on/off before attacking. Chart below:

Arguments FOR: (awaiting feedback)

Arguments AGAINST: (awaiting feedback)

Edit: I meant to name it Rejuvenate in the title. Nothing major.

Cool concept.
How would you toggle the healers?

Freeze Spell is the countermeasure - if Healers are suddenly only slightly less effective under Inferno Towers, those towers become pretty much useless, in addition to allowing the attacker to choose spells instead of Freeze because it's no longer necessary. Two birds with one stone as they say, in a bad way.
Maybe I don't quite understand your concept entirely, but judging by this post alone it's a really bad idea. Care to clarify?

Thanks. Well this is part of a meta concept called either the Academy or the Proving Grounds. Name is irrelevant. This building would be primarily geared at TH10/TH11 gameplay. It would augment units with an interchangeable ability that would add depth to war strategy or to increase the viability of certain units in the late game.

You would toggle the ability on or off here. Why turn these abilities off? Each would have a downside that would make the player carefully choose what mode fits the situation.

All feedback is welcome. Truthfully the healing reduction amount is arbitrary, and I only put it down to give a vague idea of what the downside would be. This ability is completely conceptual, I am just looking for an avenue to increase the healers strategic use. This is my first at bat, until I think up something better.

As far as numbers are concerned, I could show you screenshots of my defense log going back a year, and you would see healers, hogs, (previously) valks, barbs, goblins, and giants used in fewer than 3% of these instances. This, then, means either that the units are not effective, or is just not adaptable to what players conceive of as the meta.

I admit, I have spent a long time in the upper leagues on both my accounts (both currently Titan+), so my version of reality will not mesh with someone below Masters. However, isn't that the ultimate purpose? To build your village to the point where you want to try the end game?

Anyway, my point is to suggest changes that will keep all TH levels and all leagues engaged in this game, and to make it viable and no. 1 for years to come.
