How to assign Skill Moves?
You can assign up to 6 skill moves to a player, and there are two methods to do it:
i. Default (2 Skill Moves):
| Skill Move | Description |
|---|---|
| Sprint & Skill | Simply tapping the Sprint & Skill button triggers a default skill move. The move is assigned automatically by the game and may or may not be meta. |
| Shoot Button Fake Shot | Swipe the Shoot button to the left to perform a fake shot. This move is available for all players in attacking areas (where the Shoot button appears). It’s a meta move and widely used by pro players. |
ii. Manual Skill Assign:
This allows you to assign 4 skill moves manually. Here’s how:
- Unlock Skill Moves (explained above)
- Go to Squad > Team Editing > Skill Moves
- Choose 4 preferred moves for the four swipe directions of your Sprint & Skill button (left, right, up, down)
- Click on Change on the desired direction and select your preferred move from the list of 16 available options. Then hit Assign-done!
All Skill Moves
Here we will now explore and rate every skill move in FC Mobile based on effectiveness, skill stars required to perform each skill move, and some pro tips. Scroll down to see the detailed table (coming right below).
| Skill Move | Required Star | Rating (?/5) | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lateral Heel to Heel | 3 | 3/5 | OK for quick direction change, but easy to lose possession. Not used by pro H2H players. |
| Elastico | 5 | 4/5 | Great stun and direction shift but hard to master. Better alternatives available. |
| Lane Change | 3 | 5/5 | Excellent stun and positioning makes it easy to beat defenders. Meta move. |
| Turn and Spin | 5 | 2/5 | Slows player and is hard to control. Not worth using. |
| Stepover and Exit | 2 | 5/5 | Easy to use and creates great acceleration. One of the best moves. |
| Drag Back Spin | 4 | 4/5 | Good for confusing defenders, but not the best option. |
| Roulette | 3 | 4/5 | Great for tight spaces but common as a trait. Pro players can defend it easily. |
| Heel Chop | 3 | 2/5 | Low stun and slows down player. Easily defendable. |
| Heel to Heel | 4 | 5/5 | Gives massive pace burst when timed well. Meta skill. |
| Feint and Exit | 3 | 3/5 | Same use as Stepover & Exit but worse due to less acceleration and higher skill star. |
| Ball Roll | 2 | 3/5 | Good for small space creation but limited use cases in attack. |
| Flick Up Jog | 1 | 1/5 | Almost always loses possession. Not worth using. |
| Open Up Fake Shot | 1 | 5/5 | Very effective at cutting inside and breaking defenses. Pro-level move. |
| Knock On | 1 | 3/5 | Useful after beating defenders, but hard to control and situational. |
| Hard Stop | 1 | 1/5 | Easily defendable and not effective. Button fake shot is better. |
| Rainbow | 4 | 4/5 | Can break through defenses when timed right but easy to defend at higher levels. |
All Meta Skills Guide
How to use Lane Change?
There are many situations when we are on the attack, and lane change is the best skill move to use.
When we pass to our attacker (ST, LW, RW) and their opponent is beside/in front of them, ready to defend, you can use lane change to beat them through skill stun and run into space — through on goal 🚀. You should time it when the defender is just about to tackle you and position the joystick in the opposite direction of defender movement.
Or, if we are in the buildup phase, use it when your opponent midfielder is about to close in on you and then you can exploit the space created through the skill move. It’s a good move, but it can be tricky ✅.
How to use Stepover & Exit?
This skill move can be used by cards with 2 star skill moves and is very effective when a card has high acceleration 🏃🏻♂️➡️. It is used better on attackers such as ST, LW, RW, and CAM too.
When the attacker is met with their opponent closing in, getting ready to tackle you, use stepover and exit in the direction of the defender movement and get in front of them with the pace boost 💨. When timed properly, it can give you an insane speed burst.
To perform like pro players, use a driven pass to the desired player, and trigger the skill move in the desired direction just before the player receives the ball. This will activate the skill instantly, surprising your opponent.
How to use Heel to Heel?
Make sure you’re using good players with solid stun and pace. For example, Isak, Mbappe, and Marco Van Basten are effective for this skill. You can only do this move when there is space behind the defense, not when defenders are packed in the box.
To perform this properly, pass to your player near the last defender, but make sure there’s space to run into ✨. It is best used with wingers to beat fullbacks along the touchline, or to exploit gaps between CBs. Position your joystick into open space depending on the situation, then use heel to heel and hold the sprint button to outpace the defender. This leads to a free 1v1 situation 8/10 times.
How to use Open-up Fake Shot?
The Open Up Fake Shot is very useful as it can be performed by any player. It’s great for creating space and setting up clean shots in tight areas.
Use it near the goal under pressure. If you’re close to goal and a defender is charging with no shooting space, trigger this skill when you spot a gap. It helps fake out the defender and puts you in a 1v1 with the goalkeeper 😲.
Additionally, while sprinting down the wing, use it in the direction behind the fullback’s movement. Most of the time, you’ll cut inside and take a finesse shot 🥅.
Timing is everything 🕛. Don’t trigger it too early or too late or you might lose the ball. Avoid using it directly against defenders—use it to go around them into space. When combined with good dribbling, this skill creates many goal-scoring opportunities.
How to use Button Fake Shot?
Using the Button Fake Shot is an effective move when you find space during an attack. It’s hard to master, but once you do, you’ll be unstoppable 😈.
Use it when the defender is charging toward your player with high momentum. Fake a shot away from their momentum—this will pull them away and eliminate a defender from the play. Best used with LW/RW, but with practice, you can use it all over the pitch 👍🏻.
Note: Don’t use it when there are too many defenders—it won’t be effective.
Conclusion
And that’s all about skill moves in FC Mobile, bros! 🚀 Mastering skill moves isn’t just about looking flashy it’s about taking full control of the game and dominating your opponents like a true pro. From stunning defenders with Lane Change to bursting into space with Heel to Heel, each move has its purpose and power.
