Just like in real life, timing is very important and you need to be able to read the situation carefully. Certain situations call for different tricks.
Stepovers are handy to keep in mind. As the game’s meta progresses, occasionally, using simpler inputs could catch your opponent off guard.
Heel Chop helps create space in the penalty area and confuses any defenders hoping to put in a block.
The best way to train and improve your skills is in the practice arena.
A good trick to start with is the Body Feint. This is a 2 star trick so pretty much any player in the game without goalkeeping gloves or a broken leg can do this. When you’re in the arena, and your player is facing straight towards the goal, flick the R Stick Left or Right. If your player did a Body Feint, you succeeded. However if your player rolled the ball with his foot instead, that means you held the Right Stick for too long. Try to release it sooner.
