3 hits. The mime jumps and quickly strikes with one hand, then the other. The mime will throw its head back after a short delay before headbutting you.

Mime does a weird combo

4 hits. Mime strikes with a hammer. The first two hits are done quickly, while the third and fourth strikes have a very short delay.
