FIFA 23: How to Perform a Fast Jockey

by Lordtoto01 / FIFA 23 Guides, Game Guides / 26 May 2022

Jockeying is the near perfect way to guard the ball when an attacker is encroaching upon your side of the pitch. This move lets you get within tackling range of the ball and push the attacker into certain positions that’s beneficial for your team. EA even introduced a jockeying system in FIFA 23 to improve this tactic, so we’ll be discussing that as well. Let’s begin.

HOW TO PERFORM A FAST JOCKEY

Read our FIFA 23 Jockey guide if you want to execute a simple version of the move.

Executing a Fast/Sprint Jockey is also quite easy. All you have to do is hold down both L2/LT and R2/RT to maintain pace with the attacker. Keep pressing the button to apply pressure and push them into a position where you can contest the ball without any problems.

HOW TO PERFORM THE NEW ML-JOCKEY IN FIFA 23?

The ML-Jockey is a new feature in FIFA 23, and it does not need to be manually executed. It’s a new machine learning feature that improves responsiveness and lets players maintain a tighter control over the ball while they are performing a Jockey or a Spring/Fast Jockey.

The new feature achieves this by learning from real-world encounters, updating the in-game jockey system animations in real-time. The goal is to improve a player’s ability to position themselves while also improving the consistency and fluidity of their movements.

In FIFA 23, both Jockey and Fast/Sprint Jockey come with their own neural networks in order to create more diverse yet natural animations.

ADVANTAGES OF ML-JOCKEY IN FIFA 23

The Jockeying player has better defensive coverage since they are now able to turn at numerous angles. This is a great counter if the oncoming attacker is resorting to Technical Dribbling.

Players Jockeying inside the box now place their hands behind their backs.

When attempting a jockey from high sprint speeds, it will now be slower for the player to decelerate. The goal here is to stop players from over-relying on quick turns and inauthentic fast stops.

HOW DOES THE DEFENSIVE AWARENESS ATTRIBUTE IMPACT JOCKEYING IN FIFA 23?

The Defensive Awareness Attribute affects the transition speed and the max speed during a Spring Jockey.

It also determines the overall acceleration and speed of a player when they are exiting a Jockey.

Players with a higher Defensive Awareness Attribute can perform Jockey movements much faster.

So, if you’re looking for good defenders in FIFA 23, make sure to pick up a few players with a higher Defensive Awareness stat.
