"Faking" in FIFA 23 usually refers to performing skill moves like the fake shot or fake pass to deceive opponents.
For an even more effective fake, you can control the left stick (LS) right after pressing the pass button. Hold it in a different direction to throw off defenders or briefly release it to make the move even more unpredictable. Mastering this technique can be a game-changer!
Key Points:
There are two ways to do a dummy move. In general you have to be in a position to receive a pass from a teammate. Now you can either press R1/RB or L1/LB+R1/RB and aim with the left stick in the direction that the pass is going.

Instead of a slow, predictable X pass that your opponent anticipates, use the dummy. Hold R1 and immediately accelerate away from the defender! They'll be left guessing whether you'll take a touch inside or just burst forward.
Yes, 99-rated players exist in FIFA (now EA Sports FC) but are very rare, typically appearing as special promotional cards (like Team of the Year or Futties) in Ultimate Team (UT) towards the end of the game cycle, with some fans even getting full squads of them through grinding. While base cards rarely reach this, special versions of players like Mbappe, Pele, and even defenders like Virgil van Dijk have achieved 99 overall ratings in past editions.
Yes, pump fakes are legal in basketball. A pump fake is a deceptive move where a player pretends to take a shot by quickly moving the ball upward and then pulling it back down before shooting or passing. It's used to trick defenders into jumping, allowing the offensive player to drive past them or take an open shot.
A fake punt is a trick play in gridiron football. It involves a running or passing play run out of a punt formation. A fake punt can take a number of different forms.
