Hammer.
For Kirby's Side B, see Hammer (move).

The Hammer is a close-range item that sends whoever grabs it into a clobbering frenzy for 7.5 seconds. It is one of the most "feared" weapons in the game, as it often KO's a player instantly. It originates from the Mario series, or the original Donkey Kong game.

  • The Hammer has a lot of knockback.
  • Characters cannot do anything except move and single jump while holding the Hammer.
  • The Hammer does 22% damage every hit.
  • Sometimes the head falls off and becomes a Hammer head. This leaves the swinger vulnerable, swinging just the handle for no damage.
  • In SSB, it has even more knockback and deals 30%, as well as no worries about the head falling off.
