    What the opposing player does before the faceofd, determines which button you should push, square, x or o. For example, if opposing guy in face-off circle lifts his stick side ways in the air, push o. If it looks like he's moving his arm back to punch, hit x before puck drops.

    So the faceoffs are a rock paper scissors game. They go low, you go high. They go high, you punch. They punch, you go low. Also, if you grab the player for the final punch, you get animated finishing moves, like grabbing them by the neck and throwing them. Unreal game, play more!!!

Player lock the best trucking player, it’s the easiest way to get the puck. 😂 shoot one timers by hitting shoot as the pass is coming across the goal, you can still control the players you aren’t to pass and shoot with the same buttons. And lastly fights, just spam A and you’ll RARELY lose. Oh! And please play the mini games also. They are amazing.
