Hey guys the topic makes it clear but cmon how overpowered is the hammer… the sword is literally useless and i love using the sword… it takes actual skill to use the sword. meanwhile these noobs can swing hammers in any direction and kill everything. not to mention that they can kill you even if you get the edge on them with the sword, so that makes you less accurate and not even on time and the hammer still wins… makes me really not like grifball despite it being one of my favorite game modes
Hammer has always been powerful.
It’s part of the triangle. Hammer>Sword, Sword>Grif, Grif>Hammer

this, sword is only meant to counter grif in grif ball.
As others have said before, the hammer is only effective against swords, but swords are effective against grif and grif is effective against hammers. Instead of sword beating everything.
Grif is NOT effective against Hammers anymore ^^^ I’ve made 2 posts about the same thing man, all we need is SHIELDS BACK! Grifball Pro is an abomination!!!
I love stabbing a hammer user, watching my sword go through them, and still dying. At least have the decency of making it look like it wasn’t a cheap kill.
Didn’t they update to give no shields?
The hammer works to defend the sword-wielded going for the ball carrier. It’s a nice balance that allows for scoring when you work as a team. Now all rhe betrayals the hammer cause from over-eager teammates are something else.
They actually fixed the hammer compared to the original version. The sword isn’t a skill based weapon either, would love to know how so considering the lounge it gets and it being a ohk weapon. The skill in griffball is making strategic thinking, not on a weapon where majority of the time you’ll trade if vs good opponents.

Then again, the ball can beat a hammer. I don’t think the sword’s place in the game is to get hammers, but rather get the carrier. In order to get a hammer with a sword, you have keep your distance from the wielder, wait until they swing, and scope and hit just after.

Grif is most certainly effective against the hammer, you just have to be more careful with how you use it. You can’t just run around and punch everything anymore, you have to time it right.
W/R/T the original post, the hammer is fine. It’s always taken skill to use the sword in Grifball and this sword has the longest lunge of any Halo (apart from MAYBE H2). There’s a sweet spot the sword has to be used in and if done correctly can be extremely effective.
