The '''Homewrecker''' is a unique sledgehammer used by the [[Pyro]], and was released in the [[March 18, 2010 Patch]] as part of the first wave of community content. When wielded, the Homewrecker deals double damage to an enemy Engineer's [[Buildings]] and can remove enemy [[Sapper]]s in one hit, but deals 25% less damage to players.
