What is the Griddy celebration in FIFA 23?

It's not just about scoring; it's about making a statement. While there are specific buttons for celebrations, mastering the Griddy requires a unique button combo to make your player dance to this trendy move.

The Griddy itself is a dance that's part skip, part swing, and all style.

The brainchild of Allen Davis, aka 'Griddy,' a high school American football player, this dance went viral on YouTube, Fortnite, and TikTok.

At the time of the writing, the infectious trend spread across the NFL when Davis introduced it to Ja'Marr Chase, a future Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver. Even the Premier League caught the Griddy fever, with players like Christian Pulisic of Chelsea and Manchester United's Anthony Elanga embracing the dance.

FAQs

How to do a controller celebration in FIFA 23

After you score, you can trigger celebrations using button combinations. For example, one common celebration is “Arm Swing”: hold L1 (PlayStation) or LB (Xbox), then flick the right stick right then left. For the Griddy celebration: hold R2 (PS) or RT (Xbox), then flick the right stick up twice. You can also choose whether to do your signature celebration (assigned to your player/club), a random celebration, or cancel it using L1 + R1 (PS) or LB + RB (Xbox).

How to do the Griddy in FIFA 23 on keyboard

On keyboard (PC), the Griddy celebration is done by holding a modifier key and pressing another key. The common input is hold Q and press T after scoring a goal. That mirrors the “hold R2 + flick up twice” on consoles adapted to keyboard keys.

How to flick in FIFA 23

A “flick” usually means quickly pushing the right stick (or its keyboard equivalent) in a direction to trigger a trick or a first touch. On controller, flicking the RS upward (quick move) can do things like volleys or certain skill-moves. On keyboard, you simulate this by tapping the key assigned for that direction (for example, for a volley “flick up,” you press T on PC). 

In skill moves, some flicks are part of combinations (like right stick flick left, right, up, etc.).
