Lulu

Tier ADarkSupport
TL;DR
Judge it on the team, not on the unit. Lulu is a Support unit at tier A, Dark, and a damage-led tier list is the wrong instrument for measuring it. No guide puts it in a Synchro Clash pair. Its numbers are unpublished, we do not play the game, and we do not pretend otherwise.

Where it goes on the map

Lulu is a support unit, and support units get judged badly by tier lists because a tier list mostly measures damage. A support contributes by making the damage core better, not by putting up numbers of its own. Read its tier badge as a claim about a team rather than about a unit. 21 other supports exist in our list, which is few enough that owning a good one is a genuine advantage.

Placement is the constraint most new players discover last and the one that decides the most runs. Before you spend evolution material on Lulu, look at what the rest of your six are, because six units that all want the same kind of tile is a team that loses to a map rather than to a wave.

Is it worth building

Lulu is tier A, which is the middle of the ranking, where placement and element matter more than the badge. 18 other units share the band, so the badge is a floor rather than a recommendation: it says the unit is not a mistake, and it does not say it is your best next investment.

The placement starts from the post-Update-4.0 Pro Game Guides ranking, cross-checked against Destructoid. Where the two disagree we keep the post-4.0 verdict and say so, because 4.0 renamed the game and reshuffled the top of the roster, so a pre-patch ranking is a ranking of a different game.

Run it if it is what you have. Do not sink an evolution chain into it while a higher band sits unbuilt in your box, because the material you spend here does not come back.

Not verified yet. There is no stat block on this page. The game does not publish damage, range, deploy cost or upgrade curves for Lulu, and no tracker or guide we trust has measured them either. We compile sources; we do not play the game, so we have nothing of our own to put here. What would close the gap: a guide that runs the unit alone against a fixed wave, times it, records the upgrade path and shows its working. Until somebody does, the row stays empty rather than filling with a figure that reads well.

Synchro Clash partners

No published guide puts Lulu in a Synchro pairing, and we are not going to invent one for it. Synchro Clash arrived in Update 2.5, and between Deltia's Gaming and Pro Game Guides there are 7 sourced pairings: 2 Clashes, 2 Drives and 3 Merges, of which 1 has a named resulting unit. Lulu is in none of them.

That is worth stating rather than glossing over, because Synchro makes ranking units in isolation the wrong exercise: a lower-tier unit that pairs with something you already own can be worth more to your team than a higher-tier unit that stands alone. On the published record, Lulu stands alone. If a partner turns up in a later patch, or a guide documents one, this section changes.

All 7 pairings are listed on the unit index, and the Team Builder flags one the moment you place both halves.

Its element, and what that costs you

Lulu is Dark. The game runs an advantage chart across the seven elements, Fire, Water, Wind, Ice, Rose, Light and Dark, which makes this the field most likely to explain why a team that looks right on paper keeps failing one specific wave. 18 other units share Dark, so it is a well-supplied element and you are unlikely to be short of options in it.

The trap is stacking. Six units of two elements is a team that scales beautifully until it meets the thing it is weak to, and then does nothing at all. If Lulu would be your third Dark unit, the honest advice is that a worse unit in a missing element will probably clear more content for you than this one will.

Not verified yet. We publish which element each unit is, because the guides we cross-check publish it. We do not publish the advantage grid itself, meaning the exact relationship Dark has with the other six. The chart exists in game, and no source we trust has put the whole of it in print. A plausible-looking matchup table is the easiest thing in the world to invent and the most expensive thing to act on, so it goes up when somebody credible publishes it and not before.

How to get it

This is the section you came for and it is the one where the published record is worst. Units reach your box through a small number of doors: a summon banner, an evolution of something you already own, or a gate behind a mode or an event. Which door Lulu sits behind is not stated in any source we can point at.

Lulu carries no bracket, which makes it a base form rather than an evolved one. Base forms are generally what comes out of a summon, so a banner is the likeliest door. Likeliest is not confirmed, and we are not going to print a banner name and a pull rate we cannot show you the source for.

Not verified yet. Nobody we trust has published how Lulu is obtained. No summon rate, no banner name, no event gate, no material cost. What would settle it: a source showing the unit in the in-game summon pool listing, or in a mode or event reward table, with a date attached. Guides that give you a confident answer here are, as far as we can tell, working from the same absence of sources that we are.

Where it falls short

The honest downside of Lulu is not a stat. It is the decision around it. We cannot tell you the wave where its damage stops scaling, because nobody has published its damage and we do not play the game ourselves. We can tell you where the reasoning behind building it tends to go wrong.

A support is worthless in the wrong team and quietly decisive in the right one, and new players consistently build the wrong team. Slotting Lulu next to a damage core that already clears content adds nothing you can see. Slotting it when you needed a sixth damage body costs you the clear. The badge cannot capture that and neither can we without a number we do not have.

And the flat one, which applies to every unit on this site: no stats. If you want a damage number to compare Lulu against the unit you already own, we do not have one, and neither does anybody else who is being straight with you. That is a real cost of refusing to guess, and you should pay it knowingly rather than act on a figure somebody invented.

Evolution stage

Lulu has no bracket, so it is a base form. Whether an evolved form of it exists further up the chain is not documented, and an evolution is precisely the sort of thing a patch adds without ceremony, so absence of evidence here is weak evidence of absence.

What that means for your material: a base-form unit at a high tier is an unusually good place to stand, because you have the performance without having paid the evolution bill. It also means there may be no further ceiling to climb, and a unit that cannot grow is a unit that gets passed.

The order you do things in matters more than the destination. Levelling, Etherealize, Evolve, traits and relics all draw from the same finite pile, and doing them in the wrong sequence on a unit you later bench is the most common way to lose a week of farming. That is a systems problem rather than a unit problem, which is why it lives on the systems pages.

Rarity is not the bracket

The bracket is not a rarity, and this is the mistake nearly every guide about this game makes. Lulu has no bracket at all, which tells you it is unevolved and tells you nothing about how rare it is. Rarity is a separate property with its own column in Pro Game Guides' unlock and evolution table, and 6 values appear in it: Mythic, Legendary, Epic, Rare, Secret, Exclusive. Mythic turns up independently too, in the reward text of the live code WeLoveUTDZ!, which pays "12 Mythic Etherealization Shards".

The two come apart in ways that cost real currency. A high-rarity unit can sit at its base evolution, and a lower-rarity unit can be fully evolved, and those two units represent completely different investments: one needed luck, the other needed grind. If you read a bracket as a rarity band, you will chase summons when what you needed was evolution material for a unit that has been sitting in your box the whole time.

Not verified yet. We do not print a rarity for Lulu specifically. The 6 values are sourced and listed above, but we have not transcribed Pro Game Guides' rarity column row by row onto our roster, and a rarity filled in for some units and blank for the rest would imply we had checked all of them. The gap is in our transcription, not in the source: the column is on Pro Game Guides' unlock table today and you can read this unit's row off it yourself.

Where this page comes from

Not verified yet. We do not play this game. Nobody here has launched Lulu, run it against a wave or timed anything, and no line on this page should be read as if we had. What this page is: the post-Update-4.0 tier placement published by Pro Game Guides and cross-checked against Destructoid, the parody and franchise identification that goes with it, and — where the unit has one — its documented Synchro pairing, attributed on this page to whichever source documents it. Most are Pro Game Guides; the Jane Juliet and Mimicry Sorcerer Clash is Deltia's Gaming. Nothing on it is presented as more certain than the source it came from.

That is a weaker claim than most guides make and it is the only one we can keep. When a source we trust publishes something new about Lulu — a placement change, a stat block, an acquisition route, a second Clash partner — it lands here with the outlet named, so you can go and check it against the page we took it from.

There is a version of this page that reads better. It has a damage number, a summon rate and a confident line about the best relic. We could write it in ten minutes, every figure in it would be invented, and somebody would spend a week of gems on the strength of it. A stated gap beats a fabricated number, and it is not close.

Lulu: the questions people search

Is Lulu good in Universal Tower Defense Z?
It is placed at tier A on the post-Update-4.0 lists published by Pro Game Guides and Destructoid, which is the middle of the ranking, where placement and element matter more than the badge. That is a floor, not a recommendation. We compile sources rather than play the game, so we will not claim more than the placement those guides give it, plus the element and placement facts below it.
What element is Lulu?
Dark. The game runs an advantage chart across the seven elements, so this is the field worth checking before you finalise a team. We do not publish the advantage grid itself, because no source we trust has put the whole of it in print.
How do you get Lulu?
Nobody we trust has published it. Units come from summon banners, evolution chains, or mode and event gates, and which applies here is not stated anywhere we can point at. It carries no evolution bracket, which makes a summon banner the likeliest door, though that is an inference rather than a source.
Does Lulu have a Synchro partner?
Not according to any guide we trust. Synchro Clash arrived in Update 2.5, and between Deltia's Gaming and Pro Game Guides there are 7 sourced pairings across Clash, Drive and Merge. This unit is in none of them. Building a team around a Synchro bonus it may or may not gain later is a bet rather than a plan.
Is the bracket in a unit name a rarity?
No, and this is the most common error in guides for this game. A bracket is an evolution stage. Rarity is a separate property with its own column in Pro Game Guides' unlock and evolution table, and 6 values appear in it: Mythic, Legendary, Epic, Rare, Secret, Exclusive. A high-rarity unit can sit unevolved and a low-rarity unit can be fully evolved, which is exactly why conflating the two costs you currency. We have not transcribed that column unit by unit, so we do not print a rarity for Lulu itself.
