Answer

Ruling: No, you cannot use Here to Help to play Deadbloom Predator to an occupied enemy battlefield. Here to Help restricts you to playing units only to a battlefield you control, which overrides Deadbloom's ability to be played to an occupied enemy battlefield.

Sequence:

  • Here to Help grants permission to play a unit at action speed
  • Here to Help restricts the play location to a battlefield you control
  • This restriction forbids playing to an occupied enemy battlefield
  • Restrictions supersede allowances (the "can't beats can" principle)
  • Therefore, Deadbloom can only be played to a battlefield you control when using Here to Help

Nuances:

  • The cost reduction from Here to Help still applies
  • Here to Help doesn't use the word "can't" explicitly, but it functions as a restriction by limiting valid play locations
  • If played from hand normally (without Here to Help), Deadbloom could be played to either a battlefield you control or an occupied enemy battlefield, but not your base
