Shotgun=win

I was a finalist :P

Hammer has the AOE and the capacity to flip vehicles when timed correctly; where as the sword is fast and has a much greater lunge capacity.

So...I guess it's more determinant on situations which occur in-game.

The sword is Best for stealth, But the hammer is best for Brute force And tackling multiple ememies at once.

Sword, because it is really hard to hide a hammer on your back. You become an easy target.

A person with the bomb shouldn't ever die to a hammer. The bomb also beats a sword user in a 1v1, but you will be near dead .

It matters on the player (and I mean that by more than just "who's the better player"). I think the hammer would win in most cases; but I prefer the sword.

This is pretty much undeniable fact. Sword, at best, will tie with Shotty because, for some reason, a dead guy's sword will impale you or something as it flies at you.

This is correct, and this is why being a Zombie in Infection is a punishment.

Well, it's meant to be even. But, I'm guessing you want an answer...

I mean, the gravity sword has a moderate range. And, if you are not quite close enough to kill someone, it only half-damages them.
The sword is okay. If your close enough you will lounge toward the opponent, maybe killing them. Yet, if your opponent has a sword too, and you both attack at the same time. You both get damaged, but nether one of you dies.
If I had to chose, it would be the sword, sense they are about even. But the sword looks freaking sweat!

Hammer has the AOE and the capacity to flip vehicles when timed correctly; where as the sword is fast and has a much greater lunge capacity.

So...I guess it's more determinant on situations which occur in-game.

Sure it can lunge farther, but the hammer blast that comes out is farther than the distance where the sword can lock on to lunge, so you can actually kill people farther away with a hammer than a sword if they don't have full shields.

If both were on a map and I the option to swap one for the other, I'd probably take the sword if it's a mid to close range map, and the hammer if there are vehicles on it.

I'm with this guy. I'll kick your hammer's ass with my sword.

I think sword is more fun to use, and I think it's more skilful to use a sword against a hammer rather than vice versa, but hammers are fun to knock stuff around like vehicles. If both were on a map and I the option to swap one for the other, I'd probably take the sword if it's a mid to close range map, and the hammer if there are vehicles on it.

Then again if its a Sword vs. Hammer Situation, you could always back up and let the hammer take his swing and you've got him!

No, it's Hammer > Sword > Bomb > Hammer and repeat.

Dual wielded Maulers anyone? Lol jk. Yes I know those are from Halo 3.

Seriously speaking though, a hammer wins when it's two average players going against each other, hammer vs swords.
