Wrecking Ball’s meant to be a squishy bruiser that dips in and out of the fight after dealing burst damage, but can maximise his potential in battle by optimal positioning and ultimately never allow the enemy team to have a moment of silence - that is until you introduce chain stuns and kill the hamster, but that’s besides the point
