The Air Cannon is the final prize of Soccer Madness, wherein it appeared in that Update.
Strategy[]
Built with speed in mind, this Launcher has good mobility, reload speed, damage - great accuracy and range; unlike most of its class it bypasses the dipping effect that most high-end Explosive Weapons receive, however at the cost of having slightly less damage comparably. With only a single canister on the mount, this weapon is bound to face rivalry against moderate builds.
Expect to see no short sight to the plays this Gas Gun can pull off, as due to its above-par stats, it can be used to Run And Gun opponents from midrange, avoiding shots often while strafing as reloading may ensue. Going Camping also does service to this weapon as well, just be aware of its dipping projectiles, which curve much steeper from Afar. Wind is knocked out of this gun by Water Weapons, Shotguns, and Assault Weapons.

Trivia []
- It closely resembles a T-shirt cannon.
- It remains the only weapon developed by 'Nomicon'.
- Despite being the only official item of the convention, Digital Legends gave it a 5 Years Edition.
- It may be that this is the only weapon ever produced simply because its a fan convention, and not a legal body of any kind.
- In real life, weapons that only fire compressed air blasts are incapable of killing, though the effect from the blast may cause a concussion or the incapacitation of the target.
- Cannons that fire compressed air blasts were first devised during World War II by the Germans in the form of the Windkanone (lit. "Air Cannon"), in hopes of developing a non-lethal anti-air weapon, but this failed, as the materials used by the planes were stronger than the materials the Germans used during testing, also because of the distance between the cannon and the plane.
- This weapon, in terms of firepower, is almost on par with the Golden Bazooka, the main difference being the splash and damage.
