Ammo

Ammo, also known as Clip Size, is a stat that dictates the maximum number of rounds that can be stored and fired from a weapon. As the weapon is fired, the number of available rounds decreases from the maximum to zero, at which point no more rounds can be fired. Weapons can be reloaded to regain rounds up to the maximum.

Notes

Bonus ammo provided by Melee Charge appears yellow

Ammo is displayed in the lower right quadrant of the crosshair, inside the stamina bars. Heroes with less ammo have discrete pips for each shot, while heroes with more base ammo have a continuous bar.

Bonus ammo, or overflow ammo, can be acquired through items. This appears as yellow pips and extends into the upper right quadrant to indicate there is more ammo available. The current ammo count will also be colored yellow.

While sliding, the player has infinite ammo, indicated by a light green infinity symbol.

Math

The formula for clip size increase is: $x_f=\lceil (x_i+\sum ^n\text{BonusClipSize})\ast (1+\sum ^n\text{BonusClipSizePercent}+\sum ^n\text{Golden Statues})\rceil$

where $\text{BonusClipSize}$ is additive ammo, $\text{BonusClipSizePercent}$ is multiplicative ammo, and $\text{Golden Statues}$ is the golden statue bonus.
