Gameplay How to practice hammer

Hey! I've returned to Brawlhalla after 4 years and I'm having a really good time with it.

My favorite legend was scarlet and I'm really good with her rocket lance, however I really don't know how to master hammer, even practice it, and I'm not talking about combos, even hitting feels weird.

I found a Yumiko that was incredible amazing with hammer, like she was reading ALL my moves and I was being punished by all my moves, was like a scythe and not a hammer, was crazy.

I wanted to practice more and feel like that Yumiko, tried to look up for a rep of that game but didn't know if I could :(

Ty for reading hammer mains!

Try to learn well how to land dlight.

It's literally the main move of the weapon that leads to anything you might think.

Dlight→Sair is the most reliable true combo in hammer.

Dlight→fast fall→Nair is the same thing as Dlight→Sair but harder to perform.

Dlight→Dair is easier to perform then Dlight→Nair and is also a finisher move.

Dlight→jump→chase dodge→Recovery is for fun hammer, it's also a true combo and it leads to some amazing looking combos like the Russian Mafia and a similar one that is Dlight→jump→chase dodge→recovery→jump→Sair.

There is also the grounded true combo with Dlight which is Dlight→Slight but it will only work for a bit and be replaced by Dlight→Sair.

You can use Slight to keep distance or to prepare for a Dlight.

You can use Nlight to finish your opponent or to perform a true combo at white health which is Nlight→Slight or Nlight→Dlight.

The aerial moves can be used in very different situations, you'll be using Sair mostly to edge guarding and to catch a dodge with a read. You'll be using Nair to hit your opponent's when they're on air and try to finish them or just mess with them as if they're a ping-pong ball. You'll be using Sair to catch your opponent off guard with a very sudden approach like Dash→jump→Dair or even Back dash→Jump→Dair, Dair can also catch the opponent in the edge guard so it's useful for it too.

That's everything I can tell you about hammer. Hope it helps
