NHL 24 How To Do All Dekes (Beginner/Advanced Tutorial) (Total Control & Skill Stick)

[@GreasyWop]

Thanks for this video. Ive been winning with pure grit and determination lately. A ton of garbage rebound goals and wrist shots using Dmen as screens. Time to add some swag to my game.

[@Leafer18]

swag is always the answer man

[@supreme6085]

Thank you for this. Bought this game to play cause my son likes hockey and there’s no in game tutorial 🤷‍♂️ he was getting so frustrated. Thanks

[@Leafer18]

Glad I was able to help out man! Hope you and your son are enjoying the game :)

@@Leafer18he’s starting to like it more, now that he knows more. Do you have a shooting guide as well? Like how to aim your shots? Forgive my newbie questions, please 😅

[@Jynxzisrighttoe]

@@supreme6085you could turn off aim assist in settings…it’s much easier if you just spend like 10-15 min in free skate it’s much more accurate…cuz your aiming the shots

[@jimmytrex0920]

@@supreme6085there should be an in-game tutorial. I think it’s in the training and practice section

[@AlbertHoffman-mb6tv]

​​@@jimmytrex0920there is absolutely no tutorial! There's a free skate option . I've never played hockey.. don't know anything.. so I go to KZbin and guess what.. I can't find videos for the basics for beginners I've never even heard the word deke until today. It blows my mind that this game does not offer a way to teach you

[@jacobhuish292]

I’m not switching over to total control. It should be called total bs

[@theholidayshow1026]

Agreed

[@antrozzel8291]

Bro I thought the same thing at first but even with the ease of access of moves that devalue them there is so many quality features you can like reverse hit outta anything now for one

[@ijamzer5190]

@@JaysonHoang14there is no skill gap in NHL, you try to get to spots and when you get to the spots and do a certain move you score

[@mieshta6607]

@@JaysonHoang14Idt it did. With how much offensive and defensive settings matter, on top of if you know how to play you do and if you don’t being able to do dekes doesn’t add much advantage to that.

[@boreddingercity]

Btw on total control you can do the datsuyck shot and flip if you do the same thing on skill stick

[@aRAPPERandaGENIUS]

Buy a dual sense edge controller or whatever the pro controller is for xbox. The ability to map 2 extra buttons as well as make your own settings is the real key here. I had no idea what i was missing until i got one. They are actually game changing for this game. Because, if your like me. You had issues with the new presets. That controller literally solved every issue i had.

Thanks man :)

[@KaineThorpe]

What a great video

[@shanedixon232]

Great information...but WTF is a deke?? NHL24 just came out on PS as a free game this month and I have to say normally sporting games are easy to pick up and play. Never played basketball in my life but NBA as a casual, no problem. Same with Fifa, NFL, F1...you name it...hell I can play PGA as good as the pros...but NHL = NFI!! Im skating around chasing after people and the puck. Theres a green zone that occasionally pops up on defense (which i assume Im supposed to be in and protect) and I spend half my time in the penalty box for tripping! This has not been an enjoyable game to understand! Its so technical... and worst of all. There is NO training or any small practice session to help with any of that.

[@bennettnez4711]

We are in the same exact boat. I can tell it's fun but I never know wtf is happening

[@vondreclark]

literally…2k is like learning shapes, NHL is like trigonometry

[@bennettnez4711]

@vondreclark somebody needs to release an NHL 24 for dummies guide for all of us psn free noobs. And like if they think they are explaining too much or being too simple, actually make it even simpler. Tell me what fucking buttons to push don't just tell me weird hockey words,

[@shanedixon232]

@@bennettnez4711 AGREED! I had to google what the "Point" was because the coach kept cracking the shits at me about not defending it! HAHAHAHAH Worked out its the big green box that occasionally pops up and Im supposed to be in it...even if for some reason no-one else is!? Plus I still dont understand this deke thing??! Its some special move to apparently score goals but even after watching a dozen KZbin videos I for the life of me cant get any of it working!

[@jigsawalwayswins8636]

Deke is just fancy bullcrap. Totally not needed at all unless your super heavy into ranked pvp. Just focus on your wrist shot and slap shot. Also screw total controls, i reccomend hybrid controls instead

[@brianskibo5886]

Thanks for the video. How long do you have to hold the Y button for the Michigan? My player always skates too wide instead of reaching around the post. The puck just flips into the corner. Thanks.

[@Leafer18]

Just tap Y and you have to line up the michigan in the proper spot for it to work

[@helvijsbrencis3698]

When I do behind the back, the puck doesn't go behind me and back, but instead it kind of looks like Zetterberg. Nice video, though.

[@xElucidatee]

Hey leafer new to the channel thanks for this vid just wondering what your KZbin channel name means does it have any significance to you?

[@Leafer18]

Appreciate you dropping a sub! My KZbin name just signifies how big of a Leafs fan I am haha

Hey! I cant find free skate in my nhl 24 game home screen. Can you please tell me where to find it?😅😅

[@Leafer18]

Yeah I got you! Free skate should be on the last menu option that says “more”. If it’s not I’ll take a look when I get home from work for you man!

[@ChrisRobinson16]

Hey Leafer! How do you do the stride deke? Trying to figure it out for HUT Rush

[@spencerthompson7333]

You have to stop skating and hold lb and push your LEFT stick to either left or right

[@Givens43]

Does the Between The Legs Deke really look that awful now? It used to be my favorite deke.

[@Leafer18]

Honestly I think i’m just trash at doing it lol. I’ve seen other people perform it way better

[@Givens43]

So I went back and checked and it was just the off the skate deke. As a righty, you want to make sure you're holding the puck as far to the back right as possible, and then hold L1 as you roll the stick from the right, down and to the left. The key is making sure the puck is as far back as possible, otherwise you won't get the animation.

[@Leafer18]

ahh okay got you! thanks man

[@Givens43]

@@Leafer18 No problem. Hope it becomes more consistent for you!

[@Wowzars.12]

@@Leafer18 thank you also is there any way of a tutorial built into the actual game?

[@wilton79ew]

Yes there is.. the tutorial system is in game and free skate.. but it's the most basic.. it's not that great but helpful.

[@Emper0rH0rde]

Can you show us how to perform these dekes during an actual game? Anybody can push the right buttons, or move the stick the right way, but 90% of the battle is knowing how to time it, and free skate isn't much help in that regard.

[@Mooseskull]

Doing it in a game will be how you can set it up with passes

[@kyledasilva1577]

how do you do the fake shot now (the leg raise) used to be click in right stick

[@Leafer18]

I’m not sure if you can fake shot anymore tbh but I could be wrong, I’ll look into it and let you know my friend

[@rileyandersen1706]

If on total control, you have to have the L1/LB held in and then click in on the right stick

[@kyledasilva1577]

thank you@@rileyandersen1706

[@dutchdoes1939]

Anyone please!? Wich one is the lacrosse deke it’s for a challenge

[@Leafer18]

It's called the Michigan in this video. I will say though if you're trying to get that challenge done in HUT rush it's broken. I was playing it last night and everytime I'd perform the deke it wouldn't register...

[@wilton79ew]

Ps5 it's the triangle button.. stand behind the net.. hit triangle and then practice.. it currently seems glitchy

[@thatONEmachine]

I just played for the first time at one point, I was protecting the puck on my backhand and my guy went one handed while still or protecting the puck. Problem is, I went into freeskate and can't recreate it. Anyone know what I'm talking about? I feel like I may have been holding LB during it as well.

[@Leafer18]

it's done with the analog sticks now - if you hold it to your forehand/backhand and with your right stick held out to the direction you want to shield the puck it'll do it

[@thatONEmachine]

But will it to it one handed? I mean my guys was doing the normal protect puck animation, then put it all the way out on his backhand with one arm while fending off pressure. I'm assuming that's just apart of the new protect animations?@@Leafer18

[@thatONEmachine]

And thanks for the response man. Really appreciate it.@@Leafer18

[@Leafer18]

when I've tried doing it, it has done the one handed animation to protect but tbh I think it depends on the scenario @@thatONEmachine

Nice video! But i need a faceoff guide for dumbs ! 3 match... 3 wins..but .. 0 faceoffs wins xD...

[@Leafer18]

I can for sure make a faceoff tutorial video if enough people want it

[@wilton79ew]

I use the preferred up setting so I can see better. During a face off I hold the left analog stick down and when the ref starts to move to drop thr puck I start tapping down on the right stick..

[@RJSGAMES931]

Played with skill stick for years now I’m gonna try total controls cuz I’m lazy 😂

[@Leafer18]

Total controls just seems like a no brainer to me. Less complication when pulling off certain dekes

[@mathieumadore8857]

Still having trouble with the toe drag shot. Doesn’t like to register. I just be timing it wrong

[@Leafer18]

Yeah you gotta be quick as soon as you pull off the toe drag you gotta shoot right away - kind of all in one motion if that makes sense
