The Market Gardener is a melee weapon for the Trooper. It takes the appearance of a tactical military shovel.
It deals crits if the user is currently airborne via rocket jumping. However, it deploys and holsters 25% slower, makes the user 50% more vulnerable to knockback while active, deals 30% less damage, and has a 20% slower swing speed.
This makes it slightly harder to escape after getting a market garden in and can't be used as an effective melee weapon. It's mostly used for a playstyle known as the Trollper subclass but can also be used as a situational bombing tool.

Tips[]
- Make sure your target isn't protected by their teammates, else you might just get yourself killed with the holstering speed penalty.
- Check your rocket launcher's clip before going for a kill. It is important that you have enough rockets to escape without reloading, else you risk dying to you missing the garden or other enemies.
- You can try landing on people's heads to deal stomp damage right after going for a Market Garden. Keep in mind that you have to completely stop your air momentum using S, otherwise you will likely slide off the top of the enemy's head.
- It is recommended to use a rocket launcher like the Liberty Launcher to get away after Market Gardening while also dealing enough damage to kill higher health classes.
- With the knockback vulnerability, it is best to garden people who aren't looking, such as oblivious Doctors.
- You should mostly dodge Mechanics if you're using this weapon as their sentries will quickly drain your health.
- You can pull out the weapon to use the 50% more knockback vulnerability to make a quick getaway when you're getting shot at by damage surfing (crouching while being hit by bullets/enemy explosives).
