Hello everyhamster I am @HammondUpdates ready to drop all of the live updates for Wrecking Ball directly into your feed!
New hotfix patch is still a big nerf from before. Don't settle for scraps and keep sharing and posting about a full reversion being needed.
Honestly I'm just quitting Ball until these changes get reverted and I advise everyone else to do the same.
IT IS HAMMOND'S BIRTHDAY TODAY! EVERYONE MUST PLAY AT LEAST ONE GAME OF WRECKING BALL TO CELEBRATE! 🥂

Wrecking ball confirmed never coming to stadium. Kind of sad but honestly I never expected him to get added especially while they continued to add heroes just a few seasons after their launches like Freja wuyang and jetpack cat.
Stadium Development Update in #Overwatch 🏟️
The mode will no longer be expanded with new heroes or maps after each settling at around 3% of daily players in both Ranked and Unranked.
The developers will instead support future plans.
Lowk guys was gonna make a long thread about the creator patch changes for ball but it's not worth it. All of the changes do very little to change how he plays/feels and the grapple is just a direct lowering of his skill floor/ceiling in regards to double boops+tech.
