'''MOAB Glue''' is the [[Glue Gunner (BTD6)|Glue Gunner]]'s path 3 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. ~~It allows~~ the Glue Gunner to target [[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB-Class Bloons]] and slow them down ~~but its~~ duration ~~is reduced to 9s~~. MOAB-Class Bloons under the effects of MOAB Glue are slowed to 0.625x speed (or 0.55x speed with {{BTD6 mk|Aviation Grade Glue}}). [[BAD (BTD6)|BADs]] and [[Boss Bloon|Boss Bloons]] are not slowed by this effect. On other Bloons, the effect is identical to [[Stronger Glue (BTD6)|Stronger Glue]]~~, though the~~ glue level on all Bloons is increased from 1 to 5 (~~still~~ 2 if 2-0-3). With [[Corrosive Glue (BTD6)|Corrosive Glue]], MOAB Glue gains +4 bonus damage per tick to MOAB-Class Bloons.

MOAB Glue is a low-cost and reliable MOAB-class slowdown, giving more time for defenses to handle MOAB-class bloons, and has a solid transition into its successor, [[Relentless Glue (BTD6)|Relentless Glue]]. For this reason, it is a valuable support against MOAB-class ~~bloons~~, and a staple for [[CHIMPS]] during Rounds 81-100. [[Strong]] is usually the best targeting option, as slowing down a high-tier blimp effectively slows down all of its children. Pair it with discount Villages and [[Primary Training (BTD6)|Primary Training]], as the upgrade can be discounted and Primary Training increases the glue's low pierce.

Beyond damage towers, most supports synergize with blimp slowdown as well. [[MOAB Press (BTD6)|MOAB Press]] is a staple with MOAB Glue, as glued blimps take much longer to recover from MOAB Press~~' knockback~~, and both benefit from Primary Training. MOAB Glue ~~also prevents blimps from traveling far ahead of [[Giant Condor]], reducing Condor~~'s ~~flight distance and allowing it to grab more blimps earlier. Its stall utility~~ also ~~makes it pair well with activated ability towers~~, such as [[Bloon Sabotage (BTD6)|Bloon Sabotage]], ~~by covering~~ for ~~downtime~~.

Beyond damage towers, most supports synergize with blimp slowdown as well. [[MOAB Press (BTD6)|MOAB Press]] is a staple with MOAB Glue, as glued blimps take much longer to recover from the [[pushback]] of MOAB Press, and both towers benefit from Primary Training. MOAB Glue's slowdown also covers for downtime of other support-based abilities, such as [[Bloon Sabotage (BTD6)|Bloon Sabotage]], as well as giving more time for slower supports to catch up to blimps. For instance, [[Giant Condor]] spends less time flying so it has more time to pick up new targets.

MOAB Glue ~~uses~~ the ~~middle crosspath depending on how much pierce is needed~~. 0-1-3 is a cheap upgrade that doubles pierce, and 0-2-3 is often necessary against dense late game rounds due to how often the glue needs to be reapplied~~. The top crosspath is useless, even with the increased [[Corrosive Glue (BTD6)|Corrosive Glue]] damage~~.

MOAB Glue prefers path 2 crosspaths, as the path 1 crosspaths are useless, even with the improved DoT of [[Corrosive Glue (BTD6)|Corrosive Glue]] versus MOAB-class Bloons. 0-1-3 is a cheap upgrade that doubles its base pierce, and 0-2-3 is often necessary against dense late game rounds due to how often the glue needs to be reapplied.

*According to a Ninja Kiwi [https://www.reddit.com/r/NinjaKiwiOfficial/comments/15u4amd/whats_up_at_ninja_kiwi_18th_august_2023/ blog post], MOAB Glue's glue gun is double-barreled due to the glue formula being so strong, it has to be stored separately until fired.
