This is such a cheese way to stall and it just isn’t fun to play against, at all.

You can CC him and shoot him
He is in a predictable path

Doesn’t help when there are 5 other players to contend with while he’s cheesing for free.

I mean, if all ball is just spinning, they are down a tank
Well, if they have ball in the first place they are down a tank

if you don’t specifically play to hard counter him you just can’t play the game at all though. That’s a problem any way you look at it.

I mean, and form of CC hard counters him
I’m too tired to list all of the heros that hard counter him so I’m just gonna sit back and laugh.

Maybe I’m not trying to constantly play a CC hero just to play the damn game.

Him going around in circles is just annoying, like lucio wall riding the point, not an effective way to actually win.
Have you tried shooting him?

It would make sense if his cable had a maximum extend range, so basically his cable will wrap around the object (visually) and once the cable is at 40m(?) he stops spinning or the cable breaks. It does look stupid (but it is fun) when his cable ignores walls and acts like they’re not there.
If you’re going to ask for this, then you should include compensation buff suggestions as well.
It’s not exactly reasonable to flat out nerf a balanced hero.

There’s 4 tanks, 8 dps, 3 supports that you can pick to remove all the momentum when he’s hooked. You shouldn’t need to stop him to kill in the first place, you can stand still inside or outside the boop range.

Reminds me of basic loading screen tips. “Shooting an enemy will damage them.”

,and when his boop range in the entirety of most objectives?
Be careful not to die. If you die, you will not be able to do anything until you respawn.
Also to OP: Just shoot him or cc him its not hard.

Actually if you get stunned you disconnect from the grapple.

I do think this is annoying on certain maps, but that’s more an issue with those particular maps than a problem with ball. Just make sure you have some cc on those maps and have the person with the cc focus on Ball. If they need some help to be able to do that, peel and body block as necessary.
It’s a team game and he’s a tank, he is supposed to pull focus.
I don’t understand this. If he’s stalling he’s alone, easy to predict / shoot at / cc… he’s free game until he leaves. If there’s 5 other people then he isn’t stalling, it’s a team fight.

I think being able to break his cable by shooting where it’s attached would be fair, if they could develop such a thing. Give it a few hundred health so that destroying it isn’t trivial and WB maintains all his current mobility.

That can be said about like. Every single hero.
This game IS based around counterpicking you know that right.
