We have arrived at the legendary Gates of Nazeru, which block passage to the lost lands. Something foul is at play here, and the troops are nervous. Not the roving enemy war bands we've seen, our men can handle those...

Fortunately, the Archmage Guild is here to aid us in opening the Gates, and we'll have them on our side if battle breaks out.

Nazeru's Gates is the sixth level in Kingdom Rush: Frontiers.

Strategy

General Replace the Barracks on both lower curves by DWAARPs and put as many soldiers as possible within their range. Max out Furnace Blast giving priority to the eastern DWAARP because it will face tougher enemies in the beginning. As for the Scorpions coming from the west, try to throw all available units at them because the DWAARP alone is not really effective against them. Use Rain of Fire (preferably with Scorched Earth) on tough enemies (Immortals, Scorpions and Executioners stalled together. Sand Wraiths will last very long but die anyway if you have Furnace Blast maxed out by the time they arrive. Upgrades and Hero It is advised to get all the upgrades available for this Challenge.
