Balls can be hit by other balls, and Venom can even teleport and charge his balls too.

In the story, Venom is a member of the Assassin's Guild who was ostracized and threatened by other members until Zato-1. Since then, he has been deeply indebted and in love with Zato. When Zato died in GGX, Venom seeks to preserve his legacy and to get revenge on Millia Rage. His plans are put in jeopardy when Slayer attempts to disband the Guild, forcing Venom to fight him for its leadership. Slayer purposefully loses, and Venom becomes the new leader.
During the climax of Guilty Gear Xrd -Revelator-, Venom merges the Assassin's Guild with the Illyrian military, releasing the organization's entire history into public knowledge so that its members can still have a place to belong and that the slate can be wiped clean for everyone involved. He ends up facing Bedman, and with the assistance of Robo-Ky he expends all of his power into one final attack in order to defeat him. Venom barely survived and became a baker in order to fund enough money to rebuild Robo-Ky's body.
