Spell Tower Effects

Ancients are assigned into 5 different Elements, each of which have their own unique spell which can be bound to a Spell Tower. The spell may affect the Spell Towers behavior, such as Attack Range and Splash Damage Radius.
Some Ancients have their unique Spell Tower ability, such as Golgogg's Flame Sprayer, and Zillah's Insanity Potion.

Tower Suppression

Tower suppression is one of the perks of the spell tower. This feature will reduce the effective level of an attacker's ancient if they are using the same ancient which you currently have assigned to one of your spell towers.
This means if an attacker uses an ancient which you have assigned to one of your spell towers, they will do less damage or healing to their troops based upon the rarity of the ancient you have assigned to the spell tower. An attacker's ancient cannot be reduced below level 1.

Below you can see the indicator for a suppressed Ancient in the Ancient selection interface.

The chart below will help you to figure out what level of suppression is applied based on an ancient's rarity.

Understanding Debuff Spells

Some spells (such as Jal's "Oasis" and Siku's "Battle Lament") can protect allies from all common debuffs. What does this mean?
A debuff is the contrary of a buff. It is an effect that while it persists hampers the target in some way.

The table below highlights the difference between your troops getting hit by a spell tower, without/with a debuff spell cast on your troops.

Example 1:
A group of troops are hit by a Cursed Touch Spell Tower. They take "x" initial damage, start taking 10% increased damage, and can no longer be healed by healing spells, or by Paladins for 10 seconds.
1 second later, you drop Siku's Battle Lament spell (level 1: lasts 6 seconds) on those troops.
Troops no longer take 10% increased damage, and can be healed by Paladins for the next 6 seconds (the duration of Battle Lament spell).
The Battle Lament spell wears off, troops begin to take 10% increased damage and can no longer be healed for the next 3 seconds (which is the remainder of the 10 second Cursed Touch spell effect).

In the table below, the red cells represent the period where Cursed Touch is affecting your troops, and the green cells are when the Battle Lament is dispelling the debuff.
The troops are still affected by the Cursed Touch for a total of 4 seconds out of the 10 seconds duration.

Example 2:
Your troops approach a Cursed Touch Spell Tower. You immediately drop Siku's Battle Lament Spell (level 1: lasts 6 seconds).
1 second later, the Cursed Touch Spell Tower hits your troops.
The affected troops take "x" initial damage, the rest of the effects have been debuffed by the Battle Lament spell.
5 seconds later, the Battle Lament spell wears off.
The affected troops now take 10% increased damage and cannot be healed by Paladins for the remaining 5 seconds of the Cursed Touch spell effect.

In the table below, the red cells represent the period where Cursed Touch is affecting your troops, and the green cells are when the Battle Lament is dispelling the debuff.
The troops are affected by the Cursed Touch for a total of 5 seconds. This demonstrates the importance of dropping the Battle Lament spell after the troops are hit, however if your Battle Lament duration lasts longer than 10 seconds, it would be far more beneficial to drop the spell earlier.
