well , tbh vic rated bvc as a medium-hard duel ,but there is no doubt that hammer has advantage ,even morotsojs told he know hammers who would 10-1, 10-0 every barb ...RIP-The Jesus has a decent hammerdin this is true but all classes are ease is bull crap when i meet him in pubs i usally hurt him with my ww/trapper and no it not ease vs a bvc either, most casters are not too much of a problem for a hammerdin if it has decent res and well built but most of these hammerdin walk with huge abs which kinda does kill the point as a caster is obviously much easier to wreck with abs
hammerdins arent overrated, i tried now almost every char/build (with few exceptions) and i must admit that hammer and bvc (i would add druid but i dont like that char ^^) are 2 most powerfull and with least weaknesses chars (ofc its just my opinion others might disagree)
