Nano Hamster is absolutely terrifying

When Hammond gets Nano Boosted, he is a force to be reckoned with.

His combo of swinging in and dropping down with Piledriver can one-shot 200 HP heroes with that 50% damage boost if he aims it right, and even if he doesn’t a quick spritz with his gun or a melee can finish them off easily.

The 50% damage resist can give him an effective 2000 HP if he gets a good Adaptive Shield off.

His aggressive playstyle is perfect for Ana to not only empower him to slaughter the enemy backline, but the new burst heal can save your overextended hamster from imminent death.

It’s not like all the CC in this game can stop him or anything.

Or you can use something reliable. Anything that can kill a few opponents in a short period of time. Nanoblade or nanovisor are always superior choice.

They also require burning two ultimates. Wrecking Ball only needs nano, and you can’t deny that a nanoboosted ball swinging back and forth through your team, crushing everything in sight is just terrifying

You confuse potential with reality. A lot of heroes can be dangerous in theory if they get a nano. But in practice only two heroes can get a good result without using a ulti. This is Winston and under certain conditions Rein.

Nano DF on paper looks very powerful. Essentially he does not differ from a hamster. He has similar abilities that ignore shields and matrix but with more damage. But how often does it work in practice? Not very often.

Nano doom fist has abilities that are harder to land and don’t last long. Nanoing Wrecking Ball while he’s flying around the cart or swinging around the center point works just as well as reinhardt
