What Are Skill Moves in FC 25?

Skill Moves refer to a range of special maneuvers you can perform throughout a match. They are usually used to trick your opponent or make an unexpected play when a situation gets too tough, and you are about to lose the ball. The same goes for the moments when you need to take control of it.

Similarly to other games of this franchise, players often learn FC 25 Dribble Moves above all others. Why? Most players opt for an aggressive playstyle rather than playing consistently and carefully. Always creating extra pressure on the pitch and trying to rush the opponent is their key to success. A few examples of such tricks include Elastico and Sombrero Flick.

In EA FC 25, all Skill Moves belong to one of the following categories, namely:

  • 1 Star Skill Moves
  • 2 Star Skill Moves
  • 3 Star Skill Moves
  • 4 Star Skill Moves
  • 5 Star Skill Moves

If you have no idea how to do tricks in FC 25, do not try to tackle the highest star of them. Also, not all players can execute higher-level Skill Moves if they are not skillful enough. Average players usually prefer mastering all 4 Star Skill Moves EA FC 25 since they are easier to master and are available to a larger pool of players. If you are only starting out, focus on learning 1-3 level Skill Moves.
