Stats!
I was thinking that it should be the Soldier counterpart for Heavy's Holiday Punch! So here are my ideas:

Pros:
+Critical hit forces enemy to laugh
+Always critical hit from mid-air
On Hit: Force enemies to laugh who are also using this item

Cons:
-Critical hits do no damage

When you have this weapon you are in Pyroland. 25% Damage penalty. When you kill somebody,you killed person drop ammo.

:rfacepalm: People already drop ammo.
Should be like the detonator, you know, because detonator is already a firework-like weapon.
+Makes whistle sound when fired
+10% nockback (To user too!)
Can detonate rocket in air.
-20% Damage

I tried to come up with a better name, and I came up with: The Firework Firebomber

Pros
Deals 3-1 seconds of afterburn depending on how close enemies are to the center of the blast radius
Damage of launched rockets goes up as they are flying

Cons
-15% damage to enemies
-20% damage to buildings
-35% blast radius

Neutral
Rockets whistle like fireworks when launched

I tried to build off of fireworks being called pyrotechnics; I also thought that it helped make the name more appropriate. I've never applied stats to an item, so if you can offer better ideas, I'd like to hear them!

What's wrong with the original name? I looove it.

I didn't think there was anything wrong with it besides, like Toyfan1 said, it being a tad long. I also thought that Firework Firebomber fit better into Valve's alliterative style. Then again, it was just a suggestion.

I was thinking something simalar to the scorch shot. Splash damage causes after burn, -50% damage. If rocket explodes before it hits a target (if fired in air) will drop sparks that will ignite enimies if the are touched.

When rocket's midair, click again to detonate and let it rain heaps of tiny firecrackers onto the opponents' feet, the higher up the rocket is before detonation the larger the firecrackers spread, each firecracker does 10 damage, and there are 10 firecrackers, the firecrackers detonate on impact to a solid object. If the rocket hits something solid the firecrackers will fly out the direction the rocket came so it's not an instakill.
