Ok i would consider myself quite a good player at strikers charged, i am always in the top 50 in the leaderboard, not a genius, but i can hold my own. I just wanted to point out the corrolation between Hammer brother spammers and disconnecters. Its quite amazing. Hammer spamming is a quite hilarious technique used by pretty bad players. When i first got strikers and played it i was constantly beaten by these hammer spammers and it annoyed me greatly, i thought the game was broken to be honest. Now i just love it when i get one. They are so 1 dimensional and easy to beat.

Basically you just fake like your going in for the tackle and then pull back at the last second, forcing them to spam the ham, and there you are waiting for them when they come down BAM! HAHA after they realise there pitifull technique does not work they simply disconnect. Hammer spammers are basically the backside of gamers as far as i can tell, cheats and petulant. what fun it is to beat them , use this technique when you come across a ham spam

well each player has its own special attack, which they can use when they have the ball. For the hammer bro. he pulls out a huge hammer and slams it to the floor. this attack also propells you forwards. so if you have a team of hammer bros you can just get the ball and hammer your way accross the pich then score. some players use it far too much and its pretty hard to tackle them when they use it, unless you use Darklayk's technique

yea I got one of those the other day.... didn't actually expect it but I had heard about em on the forums, basically he won the first match because of that but I managed to make him stop doing that in the second one by waiting until they've spammed the hammer and then go in. Then he changed tactics and used toads jumpy thing to jump over the keeper. I managed to get in front by 2-1, but then he did that over the keeper and scored :evil: and then it went to sudden death and he did it again... that annoyed me quite a bit, but I know what to look out for now though

Thanks for the tip. I always think it's more fun to have fun, rather than using cheap tricks, so I never do these kind of things. It's great if you can easily counter all the cheap tricks, so that people will stop using them, though.

Sorry to go off-topic, i dontown strikers (yet), but i think the AWP should be reduced to 99 damage, that way its a one hit kill if you've been shot.

Anything to stop it being a golden gun with a scope would be cool.

Well, i do have to admit it can get annoying but if you want to beat them just time there shots so when u tackle you don't get squished. I know how you feel first day online 12-0 all with Hammer Bros. skillshots :(
