Skill moves in FC 24 are the main factors for winning or losing a match. If you master even two of these moves and use them, your game will change a lot from what you used to do before. As a result, it will be harder for opponents to snatch the ball from your attackers. However, one thing to keep in mind is that these skill moves require lots of practice, and you would need a guide to learn them. That’s why, in this post, we’re going to show you all the new skill moves in FC 24 that you can grasp easily.
Learning The New Skill Moves in FC 24
FC 24 has introduced a set of new skill moves that’ll make a difference between a 4-star and a 3-star player. In fact, each player has a grade in the game, and if they have higher starts, they’ll be able to execute better and more professional dribbles. We’ll show you how! Note that the button mapping of all the moves below is set on the Alternate controls preset.
Ball Roll Drag (4 Star Move)
- Hold LB/L1 – Flick Right Stick Forward – Flick Right Stick Down/Up
This one is so simple, and I’ve learned and mastered it in less than an hour. In fact, you can master the move in practice matches very easily, but it’s hard to execute while you’re 1v1 with the opponent’s goalkeeper. Now, the important part: How to do a Ball Roll Drag?
- First, press LB/L1, and then flick the right stick toward the opponent player.
- Then, quickly flick the ball down or up to do a roll drag.
This move is very effective when the opponent directly tackles.
Drag Back Turn (4 Star)
- Hold LB/L1 – Press and Hold Back + RT/R2
This skill move is much simpler to execute than the Ball Roll Drag in FC 24. You can use it to escape a tight situation or go around the goalkeeper in 1v1s.
- First, you would need to press LB/L1 to start dragging the ball
- Then, hold RT/R2 + backward to do a Drag Back Turn.
Flair Nutmag (4 Star)
- Hold LB/L1 – Hold RB/R1 – Flick Right Stick To Any Direction
This one is a very useful skill move in FC 24. It’ll make your player get the ball ready for a precise shot or dribble a rushing defender. All you need to do is:
- Hold the LB/L1 button and then hold the RB/R1 button at the same time.
- Now, if you flick the right stick toward any direction, your player will move the ball that way.
Flair Rainbow (4 Star)
- Hold LB/L1 – Flick Right Stick Back and Forward
If you want to shoot powerful hammer shots in FC 24, then you need to master the Flair Rainbow.
- Flicking the right stick back and forward will do a normal rainbow skill move in FC 24.
- However, if you add the LB/L1 in the beginning, then you’ll have a less bouncy ball that can be easily shot toward the goal.
You can also use this move to get past a defender, but this isn’t recommended.
Reverse Elastico (4 Star)
- Turn The Right Stick Up – Left – Down
The Reverse Elastico skill move in FC 24 is one of the returning and important techniques from the old FIFA games. If you master this easy-to-execute skill move, you’ll be able to dribble the defending players and goalkeeper easily with a flick of a right stick. All you need to do is:
- Monitor which foot your chosen player is doing better with.
- Then, turn right and stick buttons up, left, and down to perform the move.
Remember that it takes time to learn and master all these new skill moves. You should also note that you need a four-star player like Raheem Sterling to perform these moves. Each player’s star rate is indicated in their bio. To find out, all you need to do is select the player and press the RS/R3 button to see the stats.
