"When it was discovered that the Blaster Gun could propel metalfaces things went downhill for this lab..."

Blaster Ballet is a Deathmatch map introduced in v100 Alpha.
This map features a very unique gameplay in which the Blaster Gun and Phaser are the main weapons the players are given. This evokes more fast-paced matches thanks to the use of the blaster/phaser-jumping technique (Which consists of timing a shot to the ground while rolling, resulting in the player making higher and stronger jumps).

Starting Weapons

Blaster Gun with no extra upgrades
Phaser with Super Charger Lv1 upgrade enabled

Starting Equipment

Blaster Jumper character preset containing:

Full Explorer Hull set
Jet Shoes

Featured Pickups

Throwables

Stick Grenade x2
Chemical Vial

Other

Upgrade

Trivia

The very old incarnation of the map (originating from v100 Alpha) had Energy Baton featured in the pickups.
In a very old version of the game, the character preset was named Blaster Dancer. Now it's Blaster Jumper.
