America

america is a ranged item in item asylum. It is a massively oversized and disproportionate M82 Barrett.
== Functionality ==
While america is equipped, it plays an instrumental version of "Star Spangled Banner", the United States' national anthem.
Clicking anywhere will cause america to fire a hitscan projectile that deals 1,000 damage and extreme knockback to the first person struck by it, functioning effectively as an instant kill. Firing america will also cause it to be removed from the user's inventory, dropping to the ground; the user will also be flung backwards with extreme force usually dying to the knockback.
== Tips ==
* Due to how strong the knockback is, america usually results in the wielder's death. Maps with thick walls and giving oneself space to decelerate in will help the wielder survive.
* If obtained, look out for people with powerful items. This is your chance to eliminate them before it can create any chaos.
* Treat this weapon like end: it eliminates a single target instantaneously, while (usually) killing you in the process.
* If you want a chance at surviving when using america, shoot an enemy from below so you launch yourself upwards and land back on the map.
* america has no start lag when equipped. As such, it can be as you equip it, helping reduce the chance of unwanted attention.
== Trivia ==
*america is a reference to American gun culture, namely the stereotyping of Second Amendment rights.
*There is a badge, "american sniper", that is awarded for getting a kill with america from 200 or more studs away. While this is generally achievable on most maps, ffa baseplate2021 offers one of the easiest ways of getting a clear shot with enough distance.
*america used to be obnoxiously loud, but the sound was lowered in a later update.
*america is blacklisted from BOSS and JGN rounds, meaning it is impossible for it to be naturally obtained during these rounds.
**This is due to america's absurdly high base damage.
*When an america user shoots someone with their holy mantle active, the gun will stay in the user's hand instead of dropping.
