Let me clarify some things.
The objective of grifball is to take the ball to the other opponents spawn to score. There is a circle on the ground that denotes the 'endzone'. That is why there are only melee weapons as guns would not be fun in an all open arena. The hammers do have the ability to throw a character a very long distance. N fact this is one strategy of the game. Having your team mate whack you over the opposing team and possibly directly onto the score pad. This takes great timing as there could be a team kill involved.
Flags and skulls and bombs are the only 1 hit kill melee weapons besides swords and hammers and those arent always guaranteed kills. they are potent but they also decrease the players run speed.
