The Glue Gunner is a Primary tower in Bloons TD 6. It shoots a drop of glue that will slow one non MOAB-class Bloon down by 50% for 11 seconds, and soaks up to 3 bloon layers. It can be upgraded to deal massive damage with corrosive glue, glue and weaken a lot of Bloons, or slow down MOAB-Class Bloons.
Mechanics
The Glue Gunner's attack shoots a glob of glue at a rate of 1 per second. The glob has 1 pierce and cannot collide with Camo Bloons or MOAB-Class Bloons. It inflict a glue effect on contact that causes Bloons to move 50% slower, lasting for 11 seconds or until its outer three layers are popped, whichever comes first.
The Glue Gunner's glue has a "glue level" system that determines which types of glue can be overridden by other types of glue from other upgrade paths. The Glue Gunner cannot target or glue Bloons that are afflicted with glue of the same level or higher, but it can target and glue Bloons that have lower level glue. If a glued Bloon is glued by higher-level glue, its glue is overridden.

Notes
- 2-0-5 Super Glue with Corrosive Glue (level 5) can target Bloons glued by The Bloon Solver (level 6), but its projectiles will not collide with those Bloons.
- MOAB Glue and above will not remove damage over time caused by Corrosive Glue or above, since the damage over time is technically a separate debuff from the slowing effect. Bloons that had Dissolver, Liquefier, or Solver overridden will still display the green glue visual overlay until the damage over time expires.
- Glue from the Tube of Amaz-o-Glue has glue level 5.
Upgrades
Path 1
- With Glue Strike and Glue Storm, it allows their abilities to inflict damage over time as well.
- With MOAB Glue and above, it deals +9 damage to MOAB-Class Bloons per tick. However, it only lasts for 9 seconds on them, like the slowing effect.
- With Relentless Glue, it deals +19 damage to MOAB-class per tick and lasts for 12 seconds on them.
- With Super Glue, it deals 21 base damage and +39 damage to MOAB-class per tick and lasts for 18 seconds on them. It also causes its on-pop stun AoEs to deal 1 Acid-type damage and remove its damage cap.
When a Bloon fully pops[fn 1] while under the effects of Bloon Liquefier glue, it drops one puddle of acid onto the track. These puddles deal 4 damage, have 3 pierce, and last for 7.7 seconds. They have Normal-type damage but cannot target Camo Bloons without Camo detection.
This upgrade increases Glue Gunner's pierce from 2 to 4, the glue level from 4 to 6, lets it fire 2 globs of glue per shot instead of 1, separated by 10° from the center, and doubles its attack speed, attacking every 0.25 seconds. Each glob now creates a splatter upon impact as if Glue Splatter were purchased instead of going through targets.
Path 2
As a crosspath, this upgrade improves The Bloon Solver splatter pierce by +3 and splatter radius from 12 to 25 and increases Relentless Glue and Super Glue on-pop splat pierce by 2 (4 with
More Splatty Glue)
This ability has a 40 second cooldown and an initial cooldown of 13.333 seconds.
Path 3
With Bloon Liquefier and The Bloon Solver, this upgrade also allows acid puddles to last for 9.1 more seconds and last 1 additional round instead of disappearing upon a round ending. This upgrade increases the duration of the glue from Glue Strike and Glue Storm's abilities by 13 seconds.
Unlike most Glue Gunners, Super Glue can hit Bloons which are already glued by itself, resetting the glue's effect.

Strategy
Glue Gunner is cheap, long-lasting slowdown on a small number of bloons. It does not do damage by itself, but a glued bloon is much easier to deal with before it leaks. Since slowing down a bloon also holds back all of its children, Glue Gunners are often left on strong, and are very powerful against spaced rounds even with low upgrades. They lack pierce compared to Ice Monkeys but make up for that with a longer effect duration and faster attacks, and full effectiveness against Ceramics at lower tiers.
The top path focuses on damaging glued targets, letting it function as cleanup. The Bloon Solver is very strong as a cleanup tower and can handle huge numbers of late game Ceramics and even smaller blimps even on difficult maps. Lower tiers can also be good, but since they take time to pop their targets, they need to glue bloons early enough in the track for the damage to work, which limits their usefulness.
The middle path focuses on glueing more bloons. It's the most common crosspath, and is effective at slowing down large numbers of Ceramics. Later tiers give an ability which boosts damage for other towers and allows them to pop lead such as DDTs.
The bottom path makes the slow stronger and lets it slow down blimps. This is extremely valuable in late game for slowing down rounds, and can benefit almost any strategy.
