Overwatch 2
Let’s face it: Wrecking Ball in Overwatch, a.k.a. Hammond, is one of the most polarizing tank heroes in the game. Whether you love him for his agility or hate him for the chaos he brings, you can’t deny the charm of a rolling hamster in a battle mech. And while his gameplay has players either cheering or rage‑quitting, his skins offer something for everyone — ranging from fun to ferocious and downright quirky.
So, what’s the best way to stand out in the chaos of Overwatch 2? Let’s take a look at the top 10 Wrecking Ball skins that’ll have your teammates or enemies taking a second glance.
Junker Wrecking Ball
One of Wrecking Ball Overwatch’s original legendary skins, Junker has always been one of the go‑to skins for most players. The adorable mohawk and eyepatch on Hammond make it hard to beat.
Crustacean Wrecking Ball
Released in Overwatch 2, this crab‑themed ball skin works wonders, transforming Ball into something totally different. While this skin isn’t for everyone, it is a great idea.
Azmodan Wrecking Ball
A homage to Diablo’s Lord of Sin of the same name, the Azmodan skin turns Wrecking Ball from Overwatch into a demonic ball from hell. While this certainly tones down Ball’s cuteness, it is great for fans of Blizzard’s other franchise.
Snowman Wrecking Ball
Back on the cute side, Snowman is an adorably funny Wrecking Ball skin in Overwatch themed for the holiday season. They only missed out on one thing — calling it Snowball.
Jack‑O’-Lantern Wrecking Ball
Another now‑legacy skin, the Jack O Lantern skin radically redesigns Ball into a pumpkin burning brightly, turning Hammond himself into somewhat of a hamster scarecrow. The bright palette of this skin is also a nice change of pace for Hammond.
Submarine Wrecking Ball
Transforming Hammond into a vintage, steampunk‑esque submarine pilot, this skin is easily one of the most fun takes on Wrecking Ball in Overwatch — even if its color palette often leaves it fading into the background.
8 Ball Wrecking Ball
The name says it all, really. This skin is a funny one to see in the game. From the 8‑ball itself to Hammond’s cute tuxedo vest, it’s a memorable look. Unfortunately, the skin is no longer available — meaning it’s only obtainable by buying Overwatch 2 accounts that already own it. But perhaps it will come back at some point!
High Roller Wrecking Ball
While just a recolor of Ball’s standard skin, what sells this skin is Hammond’s sunglasses. Not to mention that they often fall off during his highlight intros, making this skin a must‑have for comedic effect.
Biohazard Wrecking Ball
If you’re looking for a radically different color palette, Wrecking Ball’s Biohazard skin in Overwatch might be the one for you. This recolor turns Hammond neon green.
Lucioball Wrecking Ball
If you ever played the summer games Lucioball event, this skin is a homage to that very game mode — making it quite a fun self‑reference to have in Overwatch. That said, the skin itself is nothing very special beyond the reference.
Wrecking Ball and Other Overwatch Heroes
While Wrecking Ball in Overwatch is undoubtedly one of the unique heroes in Overwatch, he’s far from the only character with a bold personality and creative skin options. Overwatch’s diverse roster features heroes from all walks of life, each bringing their own flair to the battlefield. From the high‑tech arsenal of Soldier: 76 to the mystical abilities of Kiriko, there’s a character to suit every playstyle and preference. This variety keeps the game fresh and engaging, offering players endless ways to express themselves.
