Primarily, I see two types of players in FC 25. The first one is a casual player who plays the game with whatever basic mechanics they know. Then there is another player who strives to improve by learning and implementing new and advanced mechanics.

 

One such advanced mechanic is "skill moves." Being able to learn and perform these FC 25 skill moves will put you at a massive advantage, and that is exactly what I will be teaching you in this FIFA 25 skill moves guide.

What Are FC 25 Skill Moves?

FC 25 skill moves are a special kind of dribbling technique. These are usually used to outplay your opponent, open up a lane for passing, or while looking to score a goal.

 

These skill moves have ratings from 1 to 5. A 1-star skill move is represented by the simple ones that everyone can do. At the other extreme, a 5-star skill move can only be performed by the most skilled players.

 

You will also need to take into account the "skill moves rating" of players in FC 25 to know if they can perform a particular skill move.

 

For example: the Directional Nutmeg. It is a 1-star skill move, and even a goalkeeper can perform it.

 

Simply press and hold L1+R1 or LB+RB and flick your right analog stick in the direction you wish to perform this.

 

But to do Heel Fake, which is a 5-star skill move, you need a player with a 5-star skill move ability.

 

For example, when you look at Mbappe's stats, you will notice that he has a 5-star skill move rating. This means he can perform any skill move, even a "heel fake," with ease. For that, hold L2 or LT and then flick your right analog stick to left and then right or from right to left.
