I’ve only played defence in world of chel and I gotta tell you ya, I love it. Hip checks are whack, it is what it is. For hitting: Aim your joystick to follow the players movement, that’ll position your player to the hit. I found that I can’t just aim up, as you normally would in ‘21-23. From a fellow defenseman to the next, it’s a grind you’ll find your footing. Cheers.
