Rainbow Flick Glitched Shot

Hi there, 

So if you have not seen it you will see it soon as it is spreading very fast. The bicycle shot was patched a while back but EA didn't know that some players with 4 skills and Gamechanger playstyle can still do it. On div 2 and higher and fut champs there are many players abusing this shoot from all different angles, players sit back all the game and wait for an opportunity to do this glitched shot to score which is not acceptable and not fun at all.

I will explain how to do it so it got known among the community which will help patch it ASAP. 

1- You need a player with 4 stat skill moves at least to do the rainbow flick. And the Gamechanger playstyle. Ex. Pina, yamal, diani, ayoze etc

2- after doing the rainbow flick press the L2 and R1 with the shoot button and watch the player doing a bicycle kick shot which will result in a goal 90% of the time.

It is 3 weeks now and nothing happen to it, I hope it is patched soon as i get tired from facing the player that abuse this mechanic. 

Btw it is doable in all modes, also works on next and old gens. Please spread this feedback so EA can fix it ASAP.

    I just conceded 7 goals in a champs game to this rainbow flick bicycle glitch. I was 9-2 in champs before this game. He did not miss a single one, spammed it every single attack and you can barely tackle the player when it’s in the air. This is the only way he scored against me, I scored 3 proper goals against him. Absolute BS.
    I included a few of them in this clip, you get the idea by the third or fourth. Fix this asap EA, it’s so unfair to people who are actually trying to attack in this game 

  • This **bleep** goals from outside where they do a rainbow or flick it up. Just patch it it just takes everything out of the game it's incredible.

    Honestly just ban people that do that

    Can someone please explain why a rainbow flick into a special volley is a 100% goal conversion?
    Ruining the game for me.

    Hello EA Team,

    I wanted to provide some feedback regarding the rainbow flick into bicycle kick combination in FC26. Previously, this move allowed for highly accurate and powerful bicycle kicks following a rainbow flick. The recent patch was intended to address this issue by nerfing the accuracy of the bicycle kick after a rainbow flick.

    However, it seems the fix only adjusted the accuracy values for a specific overhead kick animation rather than addressing the underlying mechanic. As a result, the inaccuracy doesn't consistently trigger after a rainbow flick; instead, one particular animation now performs poorly while others remain very accurate. 

    This change has effectively turned acrobatic volleys into a gamble: sometimes the volley executes with full accuracy and power, while other times it results in an unsatisfactory outcome, especially when following a rainbow flick. 

    Additionally, this adjustment has significantly reduced the effectivenes of the acrobatic volley playstyle. Aerial play in general now seems even less reliable, making strategies that rely on volleys, overheads or headers far less viable. As a results, the gameplay increasingly favours ground-based play, which limits tactical variet and diminishes the diversity of finishing styles. 

    I understand the intention behind balancing this move, but I hope future updates can consider a more consistent solution that maintains skill-based execution while addressing exploit concerns. 

    Thank you for your time and for continuously improving the game.

    EA needs to fix the rainbow flick and then bicycle kick glitch. A player can do it from the 18 yard box and it’ll go in 100 out of 100 times people are abusing this glitch and Eashould fix it to make it less overpowered
