The Compression Blast, also known as the Airblast, is the secondary function of the Firebug's Flamethrower. By right-clicking, the Firebug shoots out a burst of compressed air. This can shove enemies around (even through walls) and deflect projectiles such as Rockets and Mines. Note that airblasting mines while they are in the air usually does very little, compared to the complete reversal of rockets. Airblasting mines is most effective when mines are stuck to crates (simply airblast from the other side) or when standing directly above or below the trap.

- The default Flamethrower's compression blast costs 20 ammo, the Backburner's 50, and the Phlogistionator's 0, as they don't have a Compression Blast. While this may have lost of passive/team effects, this can be deadly in combat. In the 2Fort maps, you can blast a enemy into the water, leaving him unable to hit you no matter what. Also, airblasting a enemy upwards will leave them disoriented, and can often gie you time to chase them down, switch to secondary or melee weapon to finish them off. This is especially effective with the Degreaser, Axetinguisher, and Flare Gun combo, as you will be able to land several critical hits onto your opponet.
