Overwatch Hero 28: What are Wrecking Balls abilities - What can Hammond do?
Wrecking Ball is smashing his way into the meta as Overwatch receives its 28th hero. Blizzard teased Wrecking Ball, a mech controlling hamster called Hammond, in several Twitter posts last week, before announcing the new hero is now available on PTR. Overwatch players have loved playing around with Wrecking Ball and his incredibly high movement abilities and damage potential. But what are his abilities and what can Wrecking Ball do?
What are Wrecking Ball’s abilities? The fuzzy little hamster Hammond has been busy working on making his mech as dangerous as possible, designing a ball that transforms him from a helpless hamster into a formidable tank hero. Wrecking Ball has two machine guns for his primary fire, with 80 ammo per clip. The damage is fairly powerful mid-range and is a good source of suppression fire that is not available elsewhere in the tank class. Wrecking Ball has a fast-moving movement ability that transforms his mech into a ball that increases his movement. He also has a grappling claw that can be attached to walls and surfaces to propel Wrecking Ball into enemies or out of danger.
