I use a Striker Titan. Maybe I play with in a better class of Guardians then most, I don't know. But I tell you one thing. On numerous occasions hunters/warlocks even other Titans counter my Titan slam with a simple shotgun or Golden gun from a Hunter. I've basically rendered the shoulder strike as useless since it is so easily countered with yet another shotgun blast. I mainly use my shoulder charge to get out the way or for moving around the map. Also people who are aware shoot my lightning bolt grenades after one spark. We can't do that to the hunter grenades except for the trip mine. So when I kill a Hunter it gives me great pleasure especially when they are about to use their golden gun!
