WHERE TO PLAY
10Fake Left Go Right
A Tricky Way To Trick A Defender
The Fake Left Go Right Skill Move, or Fake Right Go Left depending on when you want to use it, is a great way to beat a defender right as you receive the ball. If an opponent is pressing you, staying right behind you while you receive the ball to try and take your options away from you, the Fake Left Go Right Skill is a great way to create space quickly.
To pull off this Skill, you’ll need to use someone with at least three-star Skill Moves and flick the right stick in a half-circle starting from either the left or right and swinging it beneath the center towards the other side.
9Heel Flick
Quick And Easy To Pull Off, Hard To Use Efficiently
The Heel Flick is a very good Skill Move when it works. The problem is that it isn’t always the best tool for the job. To initiate the Skill, use a three-star player or better and flick the right stick up and then down while dribbling. Your player will then quickly move the ball from heel to heel, essentially staying in a straight line as they do it.
This Skill works very well when defenders are trying to steal the ball from your side, but not very well when they’re right in front of you. If they don’t move, and you run right into them, chances are you’re losing the ball.
8First Time Feint Turn
An Effective Way To Receive The Ball With Style
The First Time Feint Turn is one of the best, if not the best, Skill Moves in the game that doesn’t do much at all. For the unfamiliar, the First Time Feint Turn is a Skill Move introduced in FIFA 23 that allows in-game players to feint receiving the ball, turning their bodies to receive the ball in motion further up the pitch.
There aren’t many moves more effective than this for receiving the ball and creating space when the opponent is pressing. With allnew Tactical Visions, more players than ever are pressing using the Gegenpressing Tactical Vision, making the First Time Feint Turn even more effective.
7Advanced Rainbow Flick
One Of The Easiest Five-Star Skills To Learn
The Advanced Rainbow Flick is one of the most recognizable Skill Moves both in EA FC 24 and the world of football in general. Sometimes referred to as the “Neymar Flick,” this Skill is performed by players flicking their right stick down, holding the left stick up, then flicking the right stick up again at just the right time.
EA FC 24: Ultimate Team PlayStyles, Explained
Ultimate Team hosts a number of changes in EA Sports FC 24, and PlayStyles is probably the biggest one after Evolutions. Here is how it works.
If you think that this Skill sounds hard to pull off, we wouldn’t say that you’re wrong. It’s not impossible though, and if you use a player with a high enough dribbling stat like Neymar, you’ll be able to embarrass any opponent with ease.
A Useful Tool In Any Player’s Arsenal
Stepover and Reverse Stepovers are an easy and effective way to get past a defender, especially a defender rushing you. Both versions of the Stepover are two-star Skills, meaning just about everyone on your team, aside from the goalkeeper, can use this skill.
Defenders are usually who you use Skill Moves against, but sometimes your defenders are the ones who have the ball, and they too need ways to get through opponents. That’s where the Stepover comes in: at two stars, even thebest defender in the worldRúben Dias can employ this move, beat his marker, and set up the next attack.
5Controlled Dribbling
A Reliable Way Of Improving Your Dribbling
Using L1 and R1 on PlayStation or LT and RT on Xbox are some of the most effective ways to dribble in EA FC 24. They’re not technically Skill Moves, but if you learn to use them right, they can be even better. Because they aren’t Skill Moves, anyone can use them, meaning even your goalkeeper can get passed rushing attacks with controlled dribbling.

The best way to use controlled dribbling is to use it slowly during attacks. Get past defenders with a Skill Move like a Stepover, control dribble to the next one, and beat them with another Skill Move to finish your attack.
The Easiest Five-Star Skill To Learn
The Elastico is the easiest five-star Skill Move in the game and one of the best as well. Unfortunately, only a select few can use this move in-game, but for the few that can, it’s a fun Skill to use.
To initiate an Elastico, use a five-star Skiller like Kylian Mbappé or Ousmane Dembélé and rotate the right stick in a half circle in the direction of your choice, starting at either 3 o’clock or 9 o’clock and finishing in the opposite direction.The Elastico is the same motion as the Fake Left Go Right, but it’s an entirely different move for five-star Skillers.
3Heel Chop
The Best Way To Beat Your Opponent On The Wings
The Heel Chop, also known as the Ronaldo Chop, is one of the fastest ways to beat a defender on the wings. It works anywhere on the pitch, but this Skill Move shines brightest when you have a prolific winger like Phil Foden or Jack Grealish bombing down the left and right flanks and looking for a way to cut inside.
The Heel Chop was a four-star Skill Move in previous FIFA games. As a three-star skill move, just about any in-game player can use this move to beat a defender, score a phenomenal goal, andcelebrate in style.
2Body Feint
The Best Skill Move To Never Move The Ball
The Body Feint has to be the simplest physical movement of any in EA FC 24. It’s just the in-game player acting like they’re going to move their body in one direction or the other — they don’t even move the ball. If it sounds too simple to work, you need to play more EA FC.
EA FC 24: How To Change Commentators
Sick of hearing the same voices in FC 24? Here’s how to change the commentators.
With the Elastico, Heel Chop, and Advanced Rainbow Flick, a lot of your online EA FC opponents will be expecting a bright and flashy Skill Move. The Body Feint is the exact opposite — yet accomplishes the same goal. By flicking the right stick to either the left or right, you can mimic actual movement, sending a defender on the wrong path as you make your way down the pitch.
1Ball Roll
The Best Skill Move For Beginners
The Ball Roll is the best and most important Skill Move for beginners to learn and master. By simply holding the right stick either right or left with any two-star Skiller or greater, you may roll the ball to either side, either setting up a great dribbling move or finishing it.
While other Skill Moves are at the end of a dribble, the Ball Roll can be used throughout, giving it an essential level of versatility all players should have in their tool belts. You can Ball Roll into a dribble, during a dribble to set up a Skill Move, or as a Skill Move itself to get past your marker and finish an attack.
