FIFA 13 Controls: No "Stick Up" Option – Right Stick Mechanics Explained

FIFA 13 does not have a "Stick Up" button or menu option. The right analog stick (RS) is used contextually for skill moves, shooting finesse, and player facing — not as a simple "up" command.

Right Stick Functions in FIFA 13

Context	Right Stick Input	Result
Dribbling (Ball at feet)	Flick any direction	Skill Move (depends on player's Star Skill Rating)
Dribbling	Hold direction	Knock-on / Push ball further (sprint dribble)
Shooting (in box)	Hold RS Up / Down / Left / Right	Manual Shot Placement (aims target reticle)
Free Kick / Corner / Penalty	Move RS	Aim target / Apply curl / Power bar adjust
Defending (No ball)	Flick toward attacker	Contain / Jockey (LT/L2 + RS flick = Face-up jockey)
Goalkeeper (Manual GK control)	RS Direction	Dive / Move / Throw

Common "Stick Up" Confusions

"Finesse Shot": RB/R1 + Shoot (not stick).
"Chip Shot": LB/L1 + Shoot.
"Manual Through Ball": RS direction + Pass (requires Manual Pass settings).
"Knock On" (Sprint Dribble): Double-tap RS forward (not hold up).

Skill Moves Requiring "Up" Flick (Examples)

1-Star: Ball Roll (RS ← or →)
2-Star: Body Feint (RS ↗ or ↖)
3-Star: Heel Flick (RS ↓, ↑) — This uses Down then Up.
4-Star: Rainbow Flick (RS ↓, ↑, ↑) — Down, Up, Up.
5-Star: Advanced (Elastico, Rabona, etc.) — Complex sequences.

Check your Settings: Pause → Settings → Controller Settings → Right Stick Function = "Skill Moves" (Default) or "Classic" (disables skills, RS = manual crossing/through balls).

If you're trying to perform a specific move seen in a tutorial, ensure the player has the required **Skill Move Star Rating** (1–5) in their bio.
