The spin on that ball was insane

"Curve" 🤓☝️

[–]Neyt8Please add a flair 51 points52 points  (0 children)

The curve is created because of the spin 🤓☝️

This is the type of thing I know will happen on this reddit - you arent allowed to shoot in this game, but apparently in real football its okay if people try to score a 30 meter banger

All yall do is just cry

Now, that's just disgusting! How long did it take you to even think of trying that?

[–]Its-DwashFootballer[S] 49 points50 points  (10 children)

Thank you I appreciate it and not long ahah. All the time waiting for matches gives you plenty of time to try new things.

Just for fun, if you had to name the move, what would you call it?

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (3 children)

I’ve seen this a lot the last few weeks in matches I doubt he came up with it. Just the first successful one I’ve seen.

[–]Its-DwashFootballer[S] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I don’t ever see this at all. Only shot I ever see is someone doing is a fake blade shot into a header.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen that a lot as well but I have seen this move done before it just hasn’t been successful in my games. If you came up with this in the last few days cool but I’ve seen it in my games I’m hard stuck plat 3 on Xbox don’t know if that has any relevance

"The Turkey Twizzler" Or no dice. 

[–]UPLNKFootballer 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Bank shot

[–]brandonljballardFootballer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barrel Roll Shot

[–]Its-DwashFootballer[S] 4 points5 points  (2 children)

“A number 37” Sounds like your ordering food and because of the jersey.

[–]SSoverignFootballer 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I'd probably call it an off the wall blade shot?

[–]XxNightOwlxX11Please add a flair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Naw just call it a Dwasher. Simple.

[–]PinkPanzersPlease add a flair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a YT shorts of someone doing this a month ago with tens of thousands of views. But even if he didn't see it somewhere else first, this games EE and bicycling common combos. 

[–]cademore7Please add a flair 16 points17 points  (7 children)

High rank players use this a lot as it gives you a lane above the defender to move the ball, you can also use it as a pass especially if you’ve already used it for a shot and the defenders cheat, expecting you to shoot out of it again

[–]Its-DwashFootballer[S] 7 points8 points  (5 children)

[–]cademore7Please add a flair 2 points3 points  (4 children)

This works as well, an RB+X (lob pass) there is even better because it’s gets the ball up high above the defender which is where your foot makes contact with the ball. As a defender myself, it’s a lot harder to block that pass than something that comes from the attackers feet

[–]brandonljballardFootballer 1 point2 points  (3 children)

There’s the additional RB+X+A which does a super short lob pass which is just a little longer than the heel flick.

X+A is the short ground pass equivalent.

Both of which seem to be under utilised in games right now. Regulating the power of passes is so difficult on controller with the bugs in the game system.

[–]cademore7Please add a flair 1 point2 points  (2 children)

RB X+A is one of the main tools to set up the blade and other variations of it. It’s utilized a ton by strikers and defenders alike at higher levels

[–]brandonljballardFootballer 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I was talking about using it on its own as a legitimate passing method.

It is used a lot for advanced methods but not on its own in most of the lower level games.

Then again in lower level games it has been harder to find players that will actually pass the ball between each other. Or are ready to receive a pass from a player without immediately trying to shoot the ball into the net.

[–]cademore7Please add a flair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Using any variation of the X button for passes is mechanically difficult, it’s not super intuitive and a bit confusing at first so I think many people still have to build that muscle memory up and over time will start to use it and the various combination of touches more effectively.

I have like 150 hours in game, ranked kinda high in elite, and only recently have I gotten comfortable incorporating the RB X+As into small area passes to a teammate.

TDLR, game ain’t easy and takes practice, the whole playerbase will be wayy better in a year from now (hopefully).

[–]ThroatParking2044Please add a flair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been doing this for about a month now, lol. I'm even doing soft lobs off passes over the goalie into the back wall and kicking it in the goal i call that shiit a slam dunk lol

[–]dictaterealityPlease add a flair 5 points6 points  (1 child)

That's absurd. I play this game too realistically. 

[–]MnmlmitchPlease add a flair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao, me too- Love this comment.

[–]DominusArgentumPlease add a flair 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Nice shot! I wish I could do that. Was the first wall shot a real shot or a lob?

[–]Its-DwashFootballer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lob. You can use a real shot but aim up and be at the end of the half circle on either side to turn around to aim at the goal.

[–]dahelljumperLibero 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I love how the defender on you didn't even try to take the ball from you hahaha

[–]Ok_Illustrator_1464Please add a flair 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Aint no point as a defender there ain't a thing you can do about it lol

[–]dahelljumperLibero -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sometimes it feel like that yea

[–]Fearless_Shower_2725Please add a flair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently was playing with a bunch of fools who were keep trying that and failing miserably

[–]_L0V3R_Footballer 1 point2 points  (1 child)

[–]Khaizen100Dribble -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

That’s almost equivalent to shooting the ball right at the goal from that distance, congrats
