Counterplay
Open cheat sheetGuardian Spirit making the first kill fake, plus Holy Word: Chastise locking the melee so Psychic Scream actually lands. Holy Word: Serenity is the instant top that makes a Low-threat healer look finished if you stop hitting.
Kick
Kick Psychic Scream first. If you see Mind Control, kick that instead. Do not spend the kick on Flash Heal while fear is coming.
Watch for
Guardian Spirit on the first kill is a cheat death — keep hitting. Holy Word: Chastise then Psychic Scream on the peeler is the lock — spread, then dispel.
Biggest mistake
Stopping your go after Guardian Spirit cheats death, or kicking Flash Heal instead of Psychic Scream.
