Description

Winter Stronghold is, as the name suggests, a winter map.

Winter Stronghold has the All Paths modifier, which duplicates all enemies for each path with the exception of major bosses, instead of them alternating between entrances.The All Paths modifier increases all currency rewards by 10%.

Rewards

The game calculates how many Coins and EXP you receive based on how many waves you survived and if you won a match. During periods of 100% more EXP (Friday – Sunday), any EXP earned is multiplied by 2x through the XP Boost modifier. The VIP gamepass also multiplies any EXP earned by 1.25x through the VIP Boost modifier. These two boosts are additive. Regular EXP boosts are multiplicative with other modifiers present on this map.

Any rewards that end in a decimal point is rounded down, no matter the first figure of the leading decimal.

Difficulty reward scaling for survival mode Coins and Exp is 1.5x.
Mode	Coins/Gem Reward	EXP Reward
Easy	( 250 ÷ (1 + [(20 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^1.3) + 50 (Triumph Only)) × 1.1	( 50 EXP ÷ (1 + [(20 ÷ Current Wave) - 1])) × 1.1
Casual	( 350 ÷ (1 + [(30 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^1.3) + 100 (Triumph Only)) × 1.1	( 75 EXP ÷ (1 + [(25 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]) + 15 EXP (Triumph Only)) × 1.1
Intermediate	( 500 ÷ (1 + [(30 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^1.3) + 100 (Triumph Only)) × 1.1	( 120 EXP ÷ (1 + [(25 ÷ Current Wave) - 1])) × 1.1
Molten	( 550 ÷ (1 + [(35 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^2.4) + 400 (Triumph Only)) × 1.1	( 135 EXP ÷ (1 + [(35 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^2) + 50 EXP (Triumph Only)) × 1.1
Fallen	( 700 ÷ (1 + [(40 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^2.4) + 650 (Triumph Only)) × 1.1	( 200 EXP ÷ (1 + [(25 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^2) + 50 EXP (Triumph Only)) × 1.1
Hidden Wave	150 × 1.1	250 EXP × 1.1
Frost	( 800 ÷ (1 + [(40 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^2.4) + 1,200 (Triumph Only)) × 1.1 ( 75 (Triumph Only)) × 1.1	( 200 EXP ÷ (1 + [(40 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^2) + 100 EXP (Triumph Only)) × 1.1
Voidcore	( 250 ÷ (1 + [(50 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]^3) + 450 (Triumph Bonus) × 1.1	( 200 EXP ÷ (1 + [(50 ÷ Current Wave) - 1]) + 300 EXP (Triumph Bonus) × 1.1

Strategy

All enemies, except major bosses, spawn twice on this map because of the All Paths modifier.
- The increased amount of enemies allows you to gain more cash by damaging enemies.
  - The Cowboy and Golden Cowboy can also generate more cash because of this.
Fallen King can spawn in either left side or right side of the map. So its best to even out towers and cover both paths
While the paths do not cross on this map, there are a few spots where your towers can cover both paths. Your towers should be placed there.
There are very few cliff spots on this map, limiting the amount of cliff towers you can place down.
For spawner towers like the Crook Boss and Military Base, only one unit will spawn, which will go down a random path.

Trivia

When the map was first released, you could place ground towers on the middle hill.
This is the only two-pathed map that does not have the paths intersect.
Prior to the Overhaul Update, Frost Solitude played on this map.
Winter Stronghold used to appear in the Special Elevators, though this is no longer the case due to them being removed from the game.
- It appeared in both regular and Special Elevators.
- As Winter Stronghold never received its own Matchmaking statue like other special maps and is quite similar to other maps that were not considered special, like the Black Spot Exchange, it is no longer considered a special map.

-|The current version of '''Winter Stronghold''' is surrounded by hills and the sea. Snowflakes can be seen falling from the sky. In the middle of the map there is a hill, with a stronghold on top of it. It is a white stone building with blue roofs. There is also a white stone tower with a wooden floor next to it. There is a stone bridge which connects the hill in the middle of the map with the other hilly parts of the map. On the other cliffs, multiple similar buildings can be seen. Multiple winter trees, rocks and small hills can also be seen on the map.<br/>The map has two grey stone paths and, unlike other two-pathed maps, these paths do not cross at any point. This means there are two entrances and two exits. The two paths start at opposite ends of the map, both at caves. Both paths rotate once around the middle castle and end at caves underneath the castle.
