Wave Man

One of the hardest characters in the game, not in terms of shooting, but in the terms of mobility, he's simply put, one of the most mobile characters in any FPS, his hookshot makes him able to weave around people and nearly be everywhere on the map at once.

Overview
General breakdowns of passive abilities, gimmicks, and their movement + health. Having 2 different ammo bars, Water Wave and Wire ammo, Water Wave using the regular ammo bar, but your Wire uses a unique looking ammo, with a Wire/Harpoon Icon below his Health and Ammo bars, and with a number below it. That number indicates your Wire ammo, and if your Wire ammo number is in red, you cannot use it until it's back to white text.

Main
Water Wave summons a series of pillars of water where you look at. Disappears upon contact with walls. Summoning it right by a wall or at a ceiling makes it go backwards, aiming straight down at your feet will push you up, though it doesn't affect your horizontal momentum, meaning that you can use it after hooking onto something and keep the speed. It has a start up time that scales depending on how far away the spawning point of the water wave is from Wave Man. This costs M1 ammo.

Alt
Wave Harpoon is a generic shot with a different sprite and hitbox.

Item
This wire functions similarly to the MM8BDM version except it has ammo and it has infinite range. Lauching it costs Wire ammo, and it drains as it's out. You get hooked to wherever it hits (If it hits the edge of the map it cancels) and you go towards the wall (or ceiling), unlike MM8BDM's wire, Wave Man's item is momentum based, so you can unhook and hook again to get around from town to town, and the head of the grapple can hook onto people too, and so in that case you will go towards them.
