The second season of The Last War: Survival Game brings a new cold challenge in the form of a Polar Storm. Players will be transported to a harsh polar region where they must confront the Emperor Boreas, who has frozen the land by turning off all heat sources. The cold climate is not the only threat, as rival war zones are also competing for the region's scarce resources.
In this guide, we'll take you through the most important mechanics of Season 2, from the challenges of extreme temperatures and viral threats to capturing key cities and digging sites. Whether you're new to this strategy game or a returning player, this guide will help you prepare for the spooky battles to come. In this article, we will focus on the Last War Season 2 playguide to maximize your experience in Season 2.
Background stroy for the Season 2
In the remote Arctic, a desolate, snow-covered exclusion zone that was once a bustling industrial city is now a snowy silence. It suffered a "heat crisis" when the old government banned private fires and provided only expensive central heating, causing many poor people to die in the cold.
A hero overthrows the old government, lifts the ban, and puts an end to the "heat crisis" by building large furnaces in the cities. He was Emperor Boreas, but then he became brutal and provoked a revolt. After he was assassinated, he hid in the ice cellar with his biological weapons. In the ice cellar, he released the virus gas, but the low temperature kept the virus inactive, giving him strength but only to survive in extreme cold.
Tips on the New Updated Elements:
How to Deal with Cold: Temperature Control and the Use of Furnaces
Firstly, we will tell you about the new season's special environment and atmosphere and how to deal with it.
In this season's icy polar environment, fighting the cold is central to the mission.
To keep the base warm, you need to rely on furnaces - both individual and alliance furnaces - to provide the necessary heat. As you go deeper into the center of the map, the temperature drops significantly.
The core elements of the season are temperature control and antiviral abilities, both of which can be improved through the furnace, so this should be your top priority from the start of the game.
Rare soils also play a key role in Season two. Once you establish yourself in the cities and dig sites of the polar regions, these sites will gradually begin to produce rare soil.
At the end of the season, the league rank will be determined by the amount of rare soil they have accumulated, and the higher the rank, the more rewards you can earn in the second season. This is different from Season 1, where the ultimate control of the city determined the League's ranking, and Season 2, where the League's occupation will directly affect the final outcome, as rare soil accumulates over time.

Preparations for Season 2 to Gain an Advantage in Early Period
● Common strategy
Purchase pieces of Violet, Mason, and Universal Epic through the store to upgrade to UR level Campaign Heroes.
Give your R4/5 heroes priority upgrades to Alliance Tech Veteran Craftsman, which will cost less to build in coal and titanium season buildings in Season 2. (Even though the description explicitly mentions a reduction in food/iron/gold, this technique also applies to seasonal resources.)
● Season 1 Strategy
Don't use up all the Hero Return Tickets in Season 1, save some for the first few days of Season 2, even a small amount of coal can make a difference. (1k coal or titanium alloy is rare, but it is still possible, please refer to the probability below)
● Season 1 Celebration Strategy
Purchase the Tower of Victory during the Black Market event in order to take advantage of the boost it provides in Season 2.
● In the early stages of the second season of Last War: Survival Game, scarce resources and a lack of antiviral capabilities made survival difficult. Here are some strategies to help you adjust to your new environment quickly:
● Buy Season Battle Passes and weekly passes early for additional resources and advantages.
● If your base is poorly located or surrounded by hostile alliances, consider relocating to a safer city or alliance.
● Based on the weakness of the mutant beast, choose the first dig site to be conquered.
● Wait for Season 2 to officially start before killing the Doom Walker to get a lot of coal.
● Upgrade titanium factories gradually until all factories are unlocked and upgraded in sequence.
● Use war fever to increase attack power to improve campaign performance.
● Consider using Allies with high virus resistance to help defeat higher-level Doomsday elites.
● Raise your body temperature through the reconnaissance program to achieve combat pass targets.
● Complete an Intense Overdrive of the season ability to increase the boost.
● Get and use the Victory Tower ornament to raise the temperature.
● In the event of a Cold Wave, collect coal in advance and make sure to ride it out safely for more rewards.
● Capture mining sites, supply coal to Alliance members, and capture all connected mining sites as soon as possible.
● With these strategies, you can grow quickly in Season 2 and be ready for the challenges to come.
To Reduce the Cost of Titanium Alloy Plants and High Temperature Furnaces
To reduce the cost of titanium alloys in titanium alloy plants, coal coasts and high heat furnaces, the following measures can be taken:
● Advance "Master Craftsman" technology research to reduce construction costs.
● As an engineer, use Level 35 "Resource saving" skills to reduce resource consumption by up to 5%.
● Strengthen the league's technology "veteran craftsmen" and focus on cost reduction, allowing league members to focus on upgrading this technology before the season starts. These methods can effectively reduce the burden of resources and lay a solid foundation for the long-term development of the alliance.
The Important Character for Season 2's Second Week
Another exciting feature in Season 2 is the possibility of hero rarity transitions. In season one, we had the opportunity to turn Mason into UR's hero. And just in Season 2, we had the ability to convert Violet's SSR rarity into UR. I believe that many players who like this character will also look forward to the emergence of this feature.
Why did Violet become one of the best SSR heroes of Last War? One of the reasons is her third skill, which means it helps her reduce zombie damage and destroy elite giants on the world map.
In Season 2, Violet can provide an additional 5% damage reduction, which is definitely a frost bufff suitable for your entire squad. It is worth mentioning that there is also a hero who provides the same buff. That's Murphy. If you have both heroes in the same squad, that means you get a total of 10% damage reduction. This is an absolutely fantastic effect.
Therefore, we strongly recommend that you elevate Violet to UR rarity. The effect of her promotion will definitely surprise you!
You Should know the Rules for Capturing Dig Sites
In Last War: Survival Game, you can have up to four Dig Sites, no matter how many cities you control. The catch limit is 2 per day. To capture the mining site, you need to defeat the mutated beast and have enough antiviral ability. Frozen polar beasts need to thaw first and then defeat them through multiple rallying attacks. Once the Beast is defeated, you will need to reinforce up to 10 teams to the dig site.
Capturing mining sites is a competitive process, and the first alliance to reach 100% wins. If the capture is not completed within 4 hours, the attempt will fail. An incomplete capture does not change the ownership status of the site. The increase in occupation percentage and the strengthening of sites will accelerate this process.
After the occupation, the excavation site will enter a 36-hour protected state and be surrounded by guards. In theory, you can attack and reinforce multiple sites at the same time, but after completing the second daily capture, you will no longer be able to attack neutral or already owned sites. If you complete a second capture while reinforcing another station, your squad will be automatically removed.
If an Alliance mining site is attacked but not captured, this does not count as a daily occupation by the Defense Alliance. Your first Alliance territory must be a Level 1 mining site, after which you can capture any neighboring territory. Territorial capture can be extended from cities and excavation sites to adjacent territories.
When the loss of Alliance territory causes the territory to disperse, you can continue to occupy territories adjacent to either group of territories. When an alliance abandons a mining site, it becomes unowned, and any alliance, including yours, can recapture it unless it is still in its protected cooldown.
In Season 2, the capture of excavation sites will not take place across theaters.
Conclusion
The second season of The Last War: Survival Game introduces a Polar Storm challenge, where players face Emperor Boreas in a frozen polar region. The season emphasizes temperature control and resource management, with players needing to use furnaces to combat the cold and gather rare soil for rewards. The storyline reveals Boreas as a former hero turned tyrant, who unleashed a virus in the cold. Players must strategize to manage resources, upgrade heroes, and capture dig sites. The season also features hero rarity transitions, with Violet becoming a key character due to her damage reduction abilities.
