The Wrap Assassin is a 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 will cause the player to launch the bauble as a projectile. Upon colliding with an enemy, the bauble shatters into glass shards, delivering damage and bleeding temporarily; however, the weapon itself deals only 30% 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 and Baseballs can both be picked up from the ground to recharge the ball meter.
The Wrap Assassin was contributed to the game via the Steam Workshop, under the name "Ball Buster".

- This item does not glow when crit-boosted.
- It is possible to launch the bauble through a thin wall by running at the wall, then launching it just before you reach the wall.

- The Wrap Assassin was first teased on the first day of the Australian Christmas Update 2011, on the bottom left corner of the title image.
- The Wrap Assassin was featured in the comic, A Smissmas Story.
