FIFA 17: How to Do the Rainbow Flick Skill Move

Taste The Rainbow

FIFA is back again this year with an upgraded engine, an innovative story mode, and some excellent gameplay tweaks that make it one of the best soccer simulators ever. FIFA 17 makes dribbling more satisfying and allows for more flair when in front of the goal, and this makes skill moves a key part of the game.

The Rainbow Flick, popularized by Jay Jay Okocha is perhaps one of the most tricky skill moves to pull off, but is easily one of the best-looking in any player’s arsenal. If you are playing with someone with 4 star skills or above, you can use this move to flick the ball over the head of your opponent and beat your man, which could lead to a lucrative chance on a goal.

To Rainbow Flick you must pull the Right Stick (RS) down and then forwards if facing upwards. If travelling left to right you must flick the RS left to right, or the opposite if attacking from the other direction. If done correctly, the ball should soar over your head and land in front of you, which can give the potential for a volley or allow you to get past a tricky defender.

The Advanced Rainbow Flick is very similar except that you flick the RS left twice before flicking it right, or twice down before you flick it up. This is an upgraded version of the Rainbow Flick in which the player juggles it between his feet before letting it soar over his head and land in front of him.

Hopefully you can add these useful skills to your FIFA 17 moveset and become a better player. For more tips and tricks, keep it locked here at Twinfinite.
