If you need truculence to hit guys in here you suck at Chel.

My buddy was able to corpse people as a playmaker when the new hitting controls first took effect but you might as well just cut out the middle man (skill) for the extra perks like keeping them down longer.

The game has never rewarded anyone for being a hero so you might as well exploit Truculence to it's max

Truculence is essential, especially when players have warrior or unstoppable abilities. It seems EA nerfed truculence but forgot to tone down the warrior and unstoppable perks in the same way.
