Strategy
- As Polluted Wasteland II has the HP Locked modifier and the Wasterunner has quite high health, it is not possible to let even a single wave of Wasterunners reach the exit.
- Strong early-game towers like the Golden Crook Boss, Golden Cowboy, Engineer or Mortar can clear it out quite easily.
