You should use the shot feint, it works great. Plus it looks great in the build up to a goal
I have never been very effective with it but I can try

Without the shot feint i would never make it in BAL. It's a good feint. You will do great things with it. Good luck with it
So true. Master shot feint and you'll score alot more .
I have never fully understood WHY it is exactly that the player haves a sudden burst of pace after each Step-Over.
It would be cool to do some variations, like for example by pressing (o)+(x)+(x) or something among those lines the player could do the fake-shot and then follow it up with a burst of speed similar to the one you get after each step-over.
But IMO it is better. Because you could kick-feint that your going Right and then follow that up by sprinting off to the Left. Or feint that your going Right and follow that up by actually sprinting off to the Right.
My understanding is that you do the step-over, change direction & burst of pace. The game sticks in the burst of pace for you if you don't do it yourself.
I just briefly hit the sprint button...
But you can do this already :huh:
How can I do it??
I was just trying to say that Konami should take that "sudden burst of acceleration" and make an individual feature -instead- of something that only works after a step-over.
Push in the direction you want to fake the shot/pass at the time you are using the shot cancel, then immediately push the opposite diagonal & give sprint button a little squeeze. Like all skills, it takes a bit of practice with the timing but is very effective.
the burst of acceleration can be acheived with a well times press of sprint button. If you use the multiple step-overs command then interrupt, you don't get the speed burst, only when the full animation has finished. I do agree though that any change in speed should be instigated by the player & not the game.
Then I guess its me being an amateur...
My favorite thing out wide (particularly when a defender is running right next to you or just ahead, trying to get a position on you) is full sprint to dead stop to drag back or side dribble. If you time it all right, the defender has gone hurtling (occasionally rather hilariously) by and is helpless to prevent the cross or cut in or whatever you want to do. You can practically walk into the box or cross from a standstill.
It's even better against live opponents. They have an extremely hard time predicting the stop, because they expect you to take the easy route and keep running so you can cut the ball back, and they tend lay on the sprint button way too much.
The Drag Back was another personal favorite. I don't like it that much in PES09, it's too "watered down" now.
