To clear Naga campaign waves in Portal Defense using a Fel Orc army, deploy a frontline of Grunts and Raiders supported by backline Orc Warlocks and centrally positioned Kodo Beasts, upgrading core unit stats fully as gold becomes available.
Core Fel Orc Frontline Units
Your melee units form the essential defensive wall against incoming Naga forces:
- Peons and Grunts: Use Peons for basic support and deploy Grunts early. Grunts serve as high-durability melee units that absorb incoming damage and stall high-health Naga units before they reach your portal.
- Raiders: Add Raiders as waves scale into the mid-game. Their presence helps control lane space and intercept tougher enemy pushes, keeping the path clear for your backline damage dealers.
Combining Grunts to take primary damage with Raiders to manage space prevents Naga waves from overwhelming your defense lane.
Positioning Support Units and Aura Buffs
Support units enhance the durability and output of your frontline, but they require careful placement:
- Orc Warlocks: Position Warlocks directly behind your Grunt wall. Keeping casters behind heavy melee units shields them from direct attacks while allowing them to deliver specialized damage and crowd control. Spreading them slightly prevents them from taking shared damage if enemy attacks reach the backline.
- Kodo Beasts: Place Kodo Beasts near the center of your defensive formation. Central placement ensures their aura buffs affect both the frontline melee units and the rear support casters, maximizing unit stat benefits across your army.
Upgrade Priorities and Wave Timing
Fully upgrading units is more effective than filling the field with unupgraded units that cannot survive sustained damage.
- Bolster Frontline Health and Damage: Spend your initial gold upgrades on Grunt and Raider durability so your wall can withstand high-damage Naga targets.
- Upgrade Ranged Offense: Shift upgrades to Orc Warlocks once the frontline consistently holds enemy pushes.
- Spend Resources Between Waves: Use the build windows between enemy pushes to invest unspent gold into upgrades or replace fallen units promptly.

This guide answered the exact question I had.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
Good guide for Portal Defense players. The strategy part was useful.
