Overview
Swapper is a slap-costing glove, added on May 21, 2021, costing 
420. Visually, the glove is translucent, using the Forcefield texture with an inner subtle cyan color and a near-cyan border, emitting an outstanding thunder particle at the surroundings.
Ability
The ability "Swap Position" summons a blue beam and a particle between the user and the nearest player, swapping their positions and playing a teleport sound. The ability has a range of 850 studs, however it cannot swap positions with players in restricted areas or outside of the arena.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- You can kill people by using your ability near the edge of any island or the Cube of Death. The player wont have time to react to what happened, and inevitably die.
- Although, this is common so most people wont fall for it.
- Will sometimes cause some abilites to backfire. one example is swapping with a Pusher user, which makes their own wall push them.
- It can be used as a fast transportation method.
- It can get the person out of sticky situations.
- Great against campers that camp islands.
- It can be used to get off of islands.
- Great counter for Admin and other gloves that stun the player.
Cons
- Ability cannot be used while rag-dolled or midair but can swap with other players that are rag-dolled or midair.
- Swapping places with another ragdolled player will cause you to ragdoll for a short time.
- You're most likely to get flung instead, as your player will swap with teh victim's exact position, including the direction they were facing.
- Swapping places with another ragdolled player will cause you to ragdoll for a short time.
- You can accidentally swap with the wrong player that you might have not seen.
- Most people are familiar with the glove's ability and will likely avoid you if trying to trick them.
- Gloves with ranged abilities can kill you if you are camping the edge.
- Most experienced players can react to your swap by quickly stopping moving to avoid falling off the map. Another thing they can do is spam jump while walking towards you, so if you swap with them mid-jump, they can go backward.
- Recall can easily save themselves with their ability when getting swapped off the map due to the ability not requiring to be ragdolled to use.
- Swapping with a MEGAROCK or CUSTOM will kill you.

Trivia
- Players can swap with someone even if they are under the effect of God's Hand's Timestop.
- If the user uses the ability on someone, there is a slight chance the user will teleport to the player instead of swapping places with them. It can also happen if the other player is lagging or dead.
- There's also a glitch where the player who gets swapped instead teleports to the user.
- Players can swap with Diamond, MEGAROCK, and CUSTOM users while they're in their rock, allowing them to move it somewhere else.
- The blue beam can be seen in the lobby.
- The teleport sound when the ability is activated comes from the Enderman from Minecraft when it teleports.
- Swapper is one of the few gloves with an animated banner, the others being Stun, Phase, Killstreak, and OVERKILL.
- Swapper is the first glove to have an animated banner.
- If you use your ability on a user using the cannon on Cannon Island, you will teleport to them, and they will not teleport.
- This glove has an admin counterpart called Boogiewoogie. Unlike Swapper, Boogiewoogie can swap with people without any cooldown.
- In the glove selection menu and the ability UI, position is misspelled as potion.
