Carrot Tower Defense Summon Guide

How the summon burrow works, published pull rates, rotation timing, and when to spend carrots vs. upgrade in-match.

Last checked: June 2026

Summoning is how you expand beyond starter bunnies in Carrot Tower Defense. Carrots earned from wins, vault rewards, Extreme Mode clears, and Farmer Bunny generation feed the lobby summon burrow — a rotating gacha pool where Epic and Legendary units appear at low percentages. This guide explains pull mechanics, documented rates for Goo Rabbit and Ninja Rabbit, rotation strategy, and how summoning fits the broader progression path from first win to meta roster.

Summon System Overview

Open the summon interface from the lobby after you have enough carrots from early matches. Each pull spends carrots for one random bunny from the current featured pool. The pool rotates periodically — not every unit is available every week. Before mass pulling, confirm your target appears in the rotation banner; wasting carrots during off-rotation weeks is the most common summon mistake.

Gems are a separate premium currency from the Roblox shop. Standard summons use carrots only. See the all units page for the full roster and the tier list for pull priority.

Published Summon Rates

Crumbling Crunchy Games publishes approximate rates for headline units. Treat these as per-pull odds when the unit is featured — not global lifetime guarantees.

    • Goo Rabbit (Epic) — 1.5% per summon when in rotation. Sprays goo patches on the track that slow and damage nibblers. Can place multiple patches after upgrades.
    • Ninja Rabbit (Legendary) — 0.1% per summon when in rotation. Ultra-rare piercing attacker that shoots through multiple nibblers in a line.

Goo Rabbit at 1.5% means roughly 1 in 67 pulls on average — still RNG-heavy; bad streaks exceed 100 pulls routinely. Ninja Rabbit at 0.1% averages near 1 in 1000 pulls — a long-term chase unit for dedicated accounts. Use the summon calculator to model streak variance; calculators show probability, not promises.

When to Start Summoning

New players should secure consistent normal wins with upgraded starters before burning carrots. The beginner guide recommends upgrading Bonker Bunny and Sniper Bunny first, adding Farmer Bunny for economy, then summoning once win rate stabilizes. Premature pulls on Common/Uncommon filler bunnies delay the carrot bank needed for Epic/Legendary chase windows.

Vault code 1416 on Deep Tunnels (after five wins) injects bonus carrots — see vault codes — often timing perfectly with your first serious summon session.

Rotation Strategy

Save for Featured S-Tier

Do not pull aggressively when only B-tier or duplicate commons feature. Wait until Goo Rabbit or Carrot Magician banners appear. Ninja Rabbit banners demand the largest carrot reserves due to 0.1% odds — many players save across multiple rotation cycles.

Know Your Pity (If Any)

Roblox TD games sometimes add pity counters; verify on patch notes via latest update and official Discord on Trello and Discord. If no pity exists, pure RNG governs — budget accordingly.

Duplicate Handling

Duplicate summons may convert to shards, carrots, or nothing depending on current systems. Check in-game tooltip text after pulling. Even duplicates of Farmer Bunny or Boom Rabbit can accelerate account power if the game grants upgrade currency.

Carrot Income for Summons

  • Match wins — Baseline income every game.
  • Extreme Mode — 500 carrots for 40-wave clear at 1 HP; hard gate — Extreme guide.
  • Farmer Bunny — In-match generation funds upgrades that lead to more wins — economy build.
  • Vault rewards — One-time carrot boost from code 1416.

Promo codes may add carrots when developers enable redemption — currently none active on the codes page.

Pull Priority by Account Stage

Early (0–10 wins)

Focus upgrades; summon only if a banner features A-tier economy or AoE you lack (Farmer Bunny, Boom Rabbit). Avoid Ninja Rabbit chase until roster foundations exist.

Mid (10–30 wins)

Target Goo Rabbit at 1.5% during featured weeks. Carrot Magician often shares Epic banners — both S-tier per tier list. One strong Epic transforms Deep Tunnels and Woodlands farming.

Late / Extreme Prep

Begin Ninja Rabbit pursuit at 0.1% if Extreme Mode is your goal. Pair with Goo Rabbit slow and Farmer Bunny for Extreme builds. Expect long grind; set pull budgets to avoid frustration.

Summoning vs. In-Match Upgrades

Carrots inside a match upgrade placed towers — separate from lobby summon currency pools in some TD games, but Carrot TD uses carrots for both contexts at different UI layers. Do not drain match carrots on unnecessary upgrades if you are saving lobby balance for summons between games. Dual-path choices on owned units matter more than extra commons — read upgrade paths.

Common Summon Mistakes

  • Pulling off-rotation because "carrots feel stuck" — patience saves thousands of carrots.
  • Chasing Ninja Rabbit before one Epic S-tier — Extreme fails without layered defense.
  • Ignoring Farmer Bunny summons when economy banners run — A-tier for a reason.
  • Trusting fake "summon hack" scripts — see script risks page.

Future Banners and Units

Each content update may add bunnies, rate adjustments, or banner formats. Goo Rabbit and Ninja Rabbit defined the first major expansion meta. Monitor developer posts and update this strategy when new Mythic rarities or rate disclosures ship. Full unit abilities remain on the units hub; compare pulls with unit comparison before committing duplicate investments.
