Player Review
94 - TOTS
So, to start off, Hulk has been my striker pretty much since the start of FIFA. Scream Hulk was in my squad for months and was benched for a period of time because I thought Ronaldo would be better (He wasn't after a while). I then used my Scream Hulk to get Flashback Hulk. Absolute monster of a card, but at the time I was using mostly Ronaldo so he was on the bench mostly and made a huge impact as a sub. My Scream Hulk had just under 500 goals, about 300 assists in 600 games. My Flashback had 205 goals, 80 assists in 220 games.
When TOTS Hulk came out, I instantly wanted to change my team just to fit him in. I knew how good his previous cards were so I had no issue spending the 400k to get him on PC.
I played him as the striker in the 4231 with Alex Teixeira as the CAM in behind. I used the team for a bit in Rivals Division 2 and 1 to get use to the squad. It was instantly a partnership with Hulk and Alex. They compliment each other so well.
So what do I like about him. He's so much more agile once you know how he moves in game. Left stick dribbling with him is fantastic. I think people see his position and think he can play down the wing. He can't really. He's better being 1v1 or 1v2 with the CBs. I find that once you use a player for a period of time, he becomes more lethal for you than just the typical meta cards. Its more enjoyable.
Shooting. There's no question. It's absolutely fantastic and broken. Honestly. His shot is so unbelievably powerful and accurate. Most of his goals for me are just power shots. Just so good.
Weak foot. It's not amazing. It's decent. In the box he's decent to very good with it. Outside the box it's non existent. The Flashback with the 4* weak foot was excellent from outside the box with his weak foot, but everything he's not even close to this version of Hulk.
Dribbling. So this is in conjunction with the agility (obviously). I felt like sharing my thoughts on his agility and balance as they're the first thing people look at. They don't matter for him. As I said, once you get use to how Hulk plays, he's lethal. Pushing him onto his left foot is so easy. So unbelievably easy. Left stick dribbling to just push off the right side of a defender and then just shoot. Simple as that.
Passing. It's good. I don't use him for the big passes. He does what's needed when it comes to linking up. I'm mostly looking to get the ball to him rather than him passing it off, but when he does pass, it's good.
Physical. No issues. Does what it says on the tin. Just pass the ball to him, hold Left Trigger (or L2), push off the defenders right and you have a goal. Your opponent decides that he'll take the ball from Hulk, he turns on beast mode and just overpowers them. It's amazing.
I highly recommend Hulk. He's so fun to use. He's got limitations as he's not the Neymars, or Mbappes of FIFA, he's Hulk. He's there as a classic FIFA striker. One that is always there for a goal.
My record on my recent Weekend League was 23-6. It's the first time I've gotten Elite and it's all down to Hulk. Every game I played in the Weekend League I scored first and it was always Hulk.
He's honestly the best player in my squad. Never subbed him once in my Weekend League. I changed my team every game around how to get the ball to him and it worked.
Everything
Don't use him like a pacey striker
