The Neon Annihilatior is a melee weapon for the Pyro. It is a neon sign with the Chinese word for "bar" (酒吧, jiǔbā), and appears to have been pulled out of the ground. An electrical sound is heard when swinging.

Enemies killed by the Annihilator suffer a distinctive death by vaporization: they turn black, hover in mid-air while performing a specific disintegration animation surrounded by team-colored particles, and then disappear into ashes.

Any attacks on enemies covered in Jarate, Mad Milk, or are swimming/standing in water will be critical hits, at the cost of a 20% slower swing rate.

The neon bars on the sides of the weapon are team-colored and will glow in the dark.

Taunting with the Neon Annihilator will play a low rumbling bass guitar sound alongside the Pyro's usual mumbling.
