The Wrap Assassin is a community-created melee weapon for the Scout. It is a ripped, team-colored roll of spotted wrapping paper accompanied by a team-colored bauble.

Acting similarly to the Sandman, pressing alt-fire (default key: MOUSE2) will cause the player to launch the bauble as a projectile. Upon colliding with an enemy or ground, the bauble shatters into glass shards, delivering damage and bleeding temporarily, also harming players that are within a small radius of the target; however, the weapon itself deals only 35% of the Bat's damage. If the projectile hits someone at an extreme distance, the victim will receive guaranteed critical hit damage from the bauble, and the player will hear a cheering crowd sound effect. Baubles explode on all surfaces but can be picked up whilst airborne to recharge the ball meter. Baseballs can be picked up from the ground to recharge the ball meter. The weapon can also deal self damage when fire at a wall close to yourself.

Compared to the Sandman's Baseball, the Wrap Assassin's bauble has a 25% faster recharge rate.

The Wrap Assassin was contributed to the Steam Workshop under the name "Ball Buster".
