EA FC 27 Skills: All Skill Moves and How to Do Them
Skill moves can change an attack very quickly in EA FC 27. You may have a defender right in front of you, no clear passing lane, and very little space to work with. One good Ball Roll or Heel Flick can suddenly give you the angle you need.
That does not mean you need to learn every move in the game. EA FC 27 skills still use the familiar one-star to five-star system, so each player has a limit based on their Skill Moves rating. FC 27 also adds several new moves this year. Below, you can find the full list, how the controls work, and which skills are actually worth learning first.
How do skill moves work in EA FC 27?
Every player has a Skill Moves rating from one to five stars. If a player has three-star skills, for example, they can use every move from the one-star, two-star, and three-star groups. Five-star players get the complete standard skill set.
Most EA FC 27 skill moves use the Right Stick, but direction matters. The game reads your input based on the way your player faces. So if your player turns, the same Right Stick movement can produce a different result.
Here are the main controls you will see below:
- RS: Right Stick
- LS: Left Stick
- PlayStation / Xbox: L1/LB, L2/LT, R1/RB and R2/RT
- Fake Shot: Square or Circle + Cross on PlayStation, X or B + A on Xbox
All EA FC 27 skills and how to do them
Here is how to do EA FC 27 skills on PlayStation!
1-star skill moves
One-star moves are the easiest place to start because every player can use them. You will not need a high-skill winger or midfielder just to try these.
2-star skill moves
This is where the list starts becoming more useful in normal matches. Ball Rolls, Body Feints, and Drag Backs are simple enough to learn quickly, but they can still beat defenders when you time them well.
3-star skill moves
Three-star players get more options when they need to change direction or escape close pressure. You will also start seeing moves that feel much faster when you use them while running.
4-star skill moves
FC 27 also brings several new options into this level.
You will probably want to test these in practice before taking them online. Four-star moves often need cleaner timing, especially when you try them while moving at speed.
5-star skill moves
Below are 5-star skills:
5-star juggling tricks
There is also a separate group for moves while the ball is in the air. You will not use these nearly as often in regular matches, but five-star players can still pull them off.
How to practice skill moves in EA FC 27
The Practice Arena is the easiest place to learn a move without worrying about losing possession or giving away a goal. Pick one skill, repeat the input from different angles, and keep going until it starts feeling natural.
Also pay attention to what your player is doing when you enter the command. Some skills only work while standing still. Others need you to jog, sprint, receive a pass, or have the ball in the air.
If a move keeps failing, check two things first: your player's Skill Moves rating and the direction they are facing. Those are often the reason the input does not work.=
