How to play against Nurse Harrow

Combo: Nurse Harrow throws Leech Therapy to drain your health and energy, then channels Lurking Terrors (7s, 10s at tier 3): everyone nearby is slowed, and anyone looking at her builds terror until they’re feared.

Punish window: She’s stuck channelling. Look away from her: you won’t build terror, and you take half damage while facing away. Then punish her.

Beware: The slow hits you even if you’re not looking at her, so don’t stay close.
