Skill Moves
Skill Moves
Skills moves can be performed by all players. The type of skill your player can execute depends on his skill level.
A player with the highest skill level can perform the most difficult and effective skills in the game, whereas a
player with a lower skill level will attempt a simpler version of a trick or may altogether fail in his attempt of that
skill. The speed at which a skill move is executed depends on your player’s agility attribute. For example, an agile
player like Cristiano Ronaldo can perform skills at a much quicker pace than a player with lower agility.
All of the skills are broken down into five levels of difficulty. One-star moves are the most basic and can be
performed by all players in the game. Two-, three-, and four-star moves can be done by players who are relatively
skilful in real life. Five-star moves can only be performed by the most skilled footballers such as Cristiano Ronaldo.
Note:
The controls listed below assume that the controlled player is moving vertically upwards and should be amended depending on your player’s direction.
