by Lordtoto01 / FIFA 23, Game Guides / 30 May 2022

Neymar is one of the greatest players in FIFA’s history and his rainbow flick is a community-favorite move that has garnered quite the popularity over the years. It doubles as an offensive and defensive tool on the pitch. Let’s take a deeper dive into the move itself and look at a few tips and tricks on how to perform it consistently throughout a game.

HOW TO PERFORM NEYMAR’S RAINBOW FLICK

The Rainbow Flick is a 4-star move so ensure the player is skilled enough before you try to attempt it.

In order to perform the simple version of the move, flick the Right Stick down once and then flick it up twice immediately. It’s the same for both PS4 & PS5 and Xbox One & Series X|S controllers. If you’re on PC, then tap Numpad 2 and then tap Numpad 8 twice in quick succession.

For the advanced version, flick the Right Stick down, then press and hold it upwards and then quickly flick it up once again. For PC, tap Numpad 2, hold Numpad 8 and then tap Numpad 8 once again.

WHEN TO USE THE RAINBOW FLICK IN FIFA 23

The true potential of the Rainbow Flick shines in 1v1 situations. If the defender is giving you a hard time, you can simply use your foot to flick the ball over their heads.

Once you’ve executed the move, don’t stop for a little while and keep accelerating.

WHERE TO USE THE RAINBOW FLICK IN FIFA 23

The perfect place to use the Rainbow Flick is just outside the box. For best results, try combining it with Scorpion Kick right after you’ve performed the Rainbow Flick.

To do the Scorpion Kick Press L2 + Circle or LT + B on your respective controllers. It’s quite effective, but make sure you have a decent amount of space before executing the move.

However, there are moves you can try out other than the Rainbow Flick. FIFA 23 has introduced a bunch of new skills and even reworked some older ones. But if you’re interested in the full list skills, consider reading our complete guide on FIFA 23 skill moves.
