Shooting Angles
🕑 Added 2020-10-07 12:04:26 +0000 UTCHi Everyone,
I have been doing some testing in regards to shooting this year, 5* WF is still important, I would so prioritise that. 4* WF have now been buffed by 5% so they are now 85% of a strong foot as opposed to 80% last year.
I found that all types of shots for now are really good, I still only use power shots, near post has been nerfed a tiny bit, but still where most of my goals go in, but across goal has also increased effectiveness.
As shown in the image below that 45 degree angle is still the peak, similar to last year, but all power shots I would use inside the box unless evidently clear its needed to use a finesse shot to curl around a keeper who may be rushing out.
Finesse shots outside the box, as shown by yellow lines, are effective also if used correctly and efficiency can be increased by using a set up touch, but is hard to do.
Chips also work well, but only if the GK is beyond the blue line, at being the region anywhere below that, or to the left of the blue line, a chip shot should not be used. Chips are merely for GK rushing outside the box for a 1-on-1, if a gk fake pushes out.

It still applicable, but I would suggest just shooting normally with power shots, outside the box use finesse shots
Is this still applicable or has much changed?

I agree, do you find you get yourself into key positions with key strikers, you have seen my video last year on finishing correct? Also what striker are you using
I feel as though the AI blockes the shot or the keeper saves it all the time... simple power shot is what I use most of the time... I try work angels as best as possible... I find that it鈥檚 my build up play... as I feel this year it鈥檚 all about counter attacking...

That is correct Power shot [same as last year just regular shoot button] Chip shot [L1/LB + Shoot button] Finesse [R1/RB + Shoot Button] Direction is the same as last year, and same in the angles video, 45 degree angle, hold the left analogue into the area then shoot!

Are you using simple power shots? is there anything in particular you struggle with is it to do with angles?
I don鈥檛 know what it is but I can鈥檛 score this year at all!! Had 9 shots all on target and not a single goal my opponent had 1 shot 1 goal this happens to me in so many matches this year馃槩馃檲 Don鈥檛 know what I鈥檓 doing wrong!!
Thanks Neal, useful info!
Xbox Chip shot : LB + Shoot, Finesse shot : RB + Shoot, Power Shoot : just hold the Shoot button longer + directions right?

They released the information in a fut podcast from the official gameplay Devs, this is what they said but I still feel 5* WF is important, at least for a marksman striker and the 5% won't make a massive difference or a noticeable one in a typical Game, only if certain angles become meta and are mastered.
Just curious, how do you know 4* is 85% now?
