Betsy is the killstreak used by the Mercenary class. There is also the Golden Betsy, Betsy's custom version, a weapon used in specific gun games.
Effect[]
Requires 4 kills to activate.
Betsy is a Killstreak Weapon. When used, the Mercenary's weapon transforms into a cannon with a Chinese dragon head that fires golden rays which explode on impact. The Betsy's projectiles are instant, just like that of the Bennett's Doom. Betsy has 20 ammo and no reloads. The Killstreak also doesn't have a time limit; it expires when it runs out of ammo.
Betsy is fully automatic, although it has a poor rate of fire. It has medium range and average damage. Due to exploding bullets, you can damage yourself with Betsy, like with any other Explosive weapon, but you can't damage your squadmates. Betsy is generally less useful than the Mercenary's primary weapon. However, it can be used to save ammunition.
In Campaign[]
Betsy appears in two side missions, along with it's custom version: Reverse Perfection and Rocket Race 4.0. Being a Killstreak weapon, it doesn't appear in regular Gun Games.

Trivia[]
- Before version 19, there was a bug. Soldiers who activated Betsy while reloading couldn't fire it. This was fixed, but only for player controlled heroes. Squadmates and enemies still have this bug.
- Betsy's appearance is a reference to the Huo-Long Heater from Team Fortress 2, an unlockable primary for the Heavy that allows him to set nearby opponents on fire.
