Wrecking Ball has become the epitome of an unstoppable force in Overwatch 2, with one player capturing the point despite being seen by almost everyone on the opposing team.
The immovable object stood strong on the point, but the enemy team’s focus was fixed solely on the attacking spawn.
Redditor BeigeAnimal, the hamster player who pulled off the hilarious play, admitted “there was no stealth,” but it’s still an incredible feat nonetheless. In the clip, the hamster main swiftly rolled through the initial choke point on Blizzard World, brushing shoulders with the opposition as they mozied onto the capture point.
Clearly, the path of least resistance is the road that meets OW2 opponents head-on. The Wrecking Ball plowed through all lines of defense and not a soul seemed to care that they were capturing the all-important point.
As the Wrecking Ball pushed through, bullets flew by either side of them. Even with the occasional bullet grazing the hamster, the enemies must have decided that it wasn’t worth their time. Thus, leaving the hamster to their own devices.
This is a strategy that often fails, so it’s always nice to see that the classic distraction tactic still has legs, kind of.
With the Wrecking Ball meta being front and center during the end phase of season three, expect to see this happening in your upcoming competitive games.
