HUGE vs. Shatter! - WCVII Fight #1

HUGE hadn’t faced a power-focused hammer since fighting Chomp, way back in 2018. At that time, we had no configs, no weight, no plan, and a lot of hope. We didn’t expect to damage Shatter’s hammer quickly, or at all, during this fight. Success for HUGE meant keeping Shatter’s hammer away from any fragile components, and preferably wasting its energy into our wheels.

Given the shape of HUGE and how difficult it is to hit, we weren’t surprised when Shatter opted to run their “Mary Special” single-piece hammer. It’s designed with more striking area, and many sharp serrations to try to cut belts. Shatter has a documented history of firing their hammer into any rotating object that comes near them, and we expected a strategy like this to try to cut any of the 8 belts that power the wheels and blade of HUGE.
