Tips and tricks
- If there is a power meter, release slightly earlier than feels natural; most meters are tuned so that "full" is too much.
- Learn the special moves last. The fundamentals — passing, positioning, basic shots — win far more games than trick shots.
- Defend first when you are ahead, attack first when you are behind. It sounds obvious, and yet.
- Watch the opponent, not your player. Their movement tells you where the ball or the gap is going to be.
- Because this is a Skills game, practise the hardest input in isolation before you attempt a full run.
- Because this is a Sports game, timing beats power.
