What Gluer is good at
- Covers enemies in glue to slow them down, with high range.
- After evolution the glue also poisons enemies over five ticks.
- A community tier list (October 3, 2026) rated Gluer A tier for crowd control, above Medusa.
Weaknesses and unknowns
- Zero damage before evolution, so Gluer never wins a lane on its own.
- Slow attack speed.
Where to place Gluer
- Place Gluer where its range covers the same stretch of path as your damage units, so slowed zombies spend longer under fire.
- Its high range means it does not need to sit right on the path.
Good pairings
These are suggestions based on the developer's and in-game ability descriptions, not on measured stats.
- Burner: Slowed zombies stay on fire inside Burner's range for longer.
- Sniper: Slower zombies give Sniper's slow shots more time to land.
- Berserker: Slowed zombies stay inside Berserker's reach, helping him reach 8 kills for Rage Mode.
How to get Gluer
Summon banner (crayons)
Units are summoned with Crayons on the summon banner in the mall lobby. Multi-summons of up to 50 are available, and players report that multi-summons do not raise your odds. Every summon can also roll a Shiny version: 1% normally, or 3% with the Shiny Hunter game pass (499 Robux), from player level 10. The VIP pass (399 Robux) gives 10% off summons. Free Crayons come from codes while they are active, and the beginner's guide lists other early sources.
Levelling, traits and evolution
Like every unit, Gluer levels up with XP from matches, Pencils and Stasis Pods (which train a unit over time while you are away). Players report that Stamps raise the level cap. Traits are painted on with Paint Pots and can be buffs such as damage, range, boss damage or cash, or debuffs. Stat Chips and Super Chips reroll a unit's stats, and Gear from your Pencil Case can be equipped. Open the unit in game to see the materials its evolution needs.
Gluer evolution: After evolution the glue also poisons enemies over five ticks.
