Hammer

For the hammers thrown by the Hammer Suit power-up, see Hammer Suit.

Hammers are NPCs thrown by Hammer Bros. and SMB1 Bowser. They are thrown in an arc-like trajectory. As such, they have poor horizontal range, but can be deadly at shorter ranges, many times hindering jumps. The hammers tossed by SMB1 AI Bowser have a higher ratio of fire than those of Hammer Bros..
