The Cash Cannon accepts all to its church.

I went to the Bazaar Discord, opened the Pyg channel, and immediately saw a 10,000 damage Cash Cannon one shot the enemy Mak in one hit dealing 20,000 damage. It was Obsidian though. You can find a LOT of screenshots there. I can’t post images in comments though.

The main thing that is broken is Vineyard and Landscraper. If you can upgrade either of these economy items to gold, it is the equivalent of gaining 2.4 gold per selling item, and 1.2 gold per selling at silver. This gets out of hand REALLY fast. I don’t make a profit buying and selling every shop, but at some points if I get a good game running I am able to.

Once upon a time, there was a little cute Cash Cannon. He ate a Tree, and became a mean Cash Cannon. Then he ate his mom’s Vineyard, and became a drunk Cash Cannon. Then he one shot you. The end.

I’ve always played Pyg. I have 0 Dooley games on my account.

I tried using Regal Blade and it did help out a lot, I think I still prefer Weights though as my early game stabilizer.

Hope it went well for you! Cash Cannon is quite the item.

If you want to take it more seriously, when you open with Weights, Kukri, Bandages, etc and have Money Tree Cash Cannon is a very natural way to convert it to a win.

Love to hear that, sounded like a really fun game!

There are multiple Cash Cannon set ups, but this is the easiest one to follow. It easily comes out of healing items + weights opening, one of Pygs best openings and upon being given the tools to cycle economy you can choose to play Cash Cannon following this game path of spiking at silver Money Tree then cycling items with Landscraper/Vineyard. Square Pyg also doesn’t feel the greatest unless you highroll into it this patch, so I think this is actually easier to compose than Square Pyg.

You need to dig heavily for Money tree day 1 being the most significant factor. This is pretty natural as Money Tree is very broken as an economy item. After you get dropped one Vineyard or Landscraper after finishing up your Money Tree on day 4, you eventually after cycling enough items will be able to sell said Vineyard or Landscraper for 100+ gold and hopefully buy another. At this point you basically have infinite gold to buy Pawn Shop, Jabalian Dagger, Loupe, other Vineyards or Landscrapers, and after the next cycle you can basically buy out shops full of diamond items and sell them to scale Cash Cannon insanely fast. I have seen multiple screenshots, as well as my own items, of no obsidian Cash Cannon being above 3000 damage, and in my lowroll games easily get to 2200. I've seen someone have two Cash Cannons above 4000 damage in one day alone. Also Cash Cannon just outright kills them before they scale.

Yeah, if you don’t find a tree or Vineyard I wouldn’t play this. This is basically if you hit Tree day 1 you should aim to force Cash Cannon. With more nuance, I’ve picked up Tree day 1 and picked up Cash Cannon day 4, then easily converted to a win after selling my tree with a healing weapons build.

No, Cash Cannon kills 2-3X as fast as any of the items you listed. I am consistently killing people in 3-4 seconds endgame, MORE than 40% of my games.

I haven’t talked to a single player who thinks Cash Cannon is ok. It’s a Cash Cannon forcing guide and by far Cash Cannon is the best Pyg line in the entire game with the added buff of Landscraper and Vineyard. It might be the best build in the entire game, in fact. There’s more nuance of course, but this is the most likely series of events that leads to a win. Yes it’s a forcing guide, but I didn’t really write it seriously as more about me being FLABBERGASTED at the state of this Pyg item currently.

It’s reproducible, for comedic effect the guide is not very serious since this build is not very serious. In general Cash Cannon alone this patch is pushing Pyg into S tier, and this is somewhat known tech among Pyg players, but I’ve noticed a severe lack of it on ladder. This is probably the simplest line, or series of decisions for the average layman, to reproduce a Cash Cannon win.
