Wrecking Ball also has an 'Adaptive Shield' ability, which adds temporary shields based on the count of nearby enemies. While in the air, the ball can slam into the ground, sucking in and damaging enemies using his 'Piledriver' move. The grappling claw can attach to surfaces and use the mech's rolling momentum to launch into enemies and the air. The mech's move set includes a quadpedal combat mode with automatic assault weapons known as the 'Quad Cannons', and a high-speed 'Roll' mode in which the mech condenses into a ball armed with a 'Grappling Claw'. The character is a tank-class mecha robot driven by a genetically engineered hamster named Hammond. Wrecking Ball is one of the playable 'hero' characters in the team-based multiplayer first-person shooter video game Overwatch.
