**Advanced Ball Control:** Natako has advanced skills when in comes to ball control, being able to perform incredible techniques when the ball is in his possession. He can reflect this ability with his dribbling, feints, one-touch passes, and more advanced techniques he can access with his ball control.

* **Hyperspeed Scissors:** Natako performs a scissor feint at incredible speed, making it hard to follow. With his opponent confused, he can take the chance to effortlessly transition into a cross to his teammate.

* **Nutmeg:** Natako dribbles the ball directly between his opponents legs, easily getting pass them and lowering their defense in the process.

**Spatial Awareness:** Natako has a great analytical ability to where he can analyze opponents movements in order to calculate and plan a play to intercept an opposing players play. This is the main reason he was able to become a national youth player and an incredible striker for any team he plays. He can use his awareness to bait other players into traps to completely cut off their plays, while setting up his very own play

* **Synchronization:** Natako is able to utilize his awareness defensively; through reading his opponents movements, he can overlap his thoughts which allows him to emulate a targets movements and manage to intercept their play and quickly create his own.

* **Goal Sense:** Natako is able to utilize his awareness by using it to the extreme; through 'feeling' the goal in which he can use this to his advantage to where he can score nearly any goal by using this technique in conjunction with his shooting skills and techniques.

* **Metavision:** Using his eyes to constantly take in information from his central and peripheral vision, Natako constantly collects data on every player he analyzes, every play they make, and their positions on the field; mixed with his high football IQ, Natako is able to interpret that data and use it to heighten every move he makes to unpredictable levels and find opportunities and create plays before others can. This ability escapes the logic of even the most highly advanced football players. Mixed with his other abilities, Natako is able to dominate the field creating illogical opportunities born from his vision and awareness.

* **Predator Eyes:** Described as the opposite of Metavision, instead of expanding his vision, Natako can drastically narrow it down in order to calculate the perfect and pinpoint shot. This helps

**Off-The-Ball Movements:** Natako uses these moments to position himself where he can always receive a pass, whether in his opponents’ or teammates' blind spots. When marked by a defender, Natako always runs towards the course most troublesome to his opposition and then immediately steps in the opposite direction of their center of gravity to bypass them finding an open position for himself to intercept a play or receive a pass.

**Extreme Reflexes:** Natako’s reflexes are absolute, as all of his actions have priority when using his reflexes to the fullest extent as he can get past defenders using his reflexes and manage to construct plays with his reflexes and completely change the flow of the match, mid-game.

**Middle Straight Shot:** One of Natako’s main ways of shooting are his middle shots that allow him to mass produce goals when scoring in the middle with straight forward shots. With this combined with his Kaiser Impact or Kicking Technique, he can score countless goals easily with his increased shooting abilities when in the middle of the field.

**Perfect Kicking Technique:** Natako has the god-given ability to control the intensity, angle, speed, and accuracy of his kicks to an extreme level at any given point in time. Not only is he able to consistently perform complex passes using his footwork and superior kicking technique but added with his level of skill he is able to perfectly manipulate the ball to the point his passes are easy to receive but hard to intercept or block and his shots are hard to block but can easily score a goal.

* **Long Driven Pass:** Natako can perform a long pass, usually 40-50 meters long, that gives the ball enough height and power to avoid interception and allows his teammate to receive.

* **High-Arching Shot:** During his match against Minato, Natako created a shot that is able to score with a high arching shot that is mainly taken from the near side of the goal. This shot has enough height, power, and rotation that allows it to be shot from afar.

* **No-Look Goal:** By utilizing his reflexes in conjunction with his goal sense and shooting technique, Natako is able to become one of the few players who can access a “no-look shot” in which his instincts tell him to score a goal without looking at the goal. This shot is a high risk for someone even like Natalia if he plays aggressively. He used this to bypass Minato’s defense with little to no effort in it.

* **High-Arching Pass:** Similar to his shot, Natako can use his shot to create a shorter variant of his Long Driven Pass in which gives the ball enough height for his teammates to receive even from afar.

* **Pinpoint Killer Drive:** By using his shooting technique in conjunction with his shooting speed and power, Natako can let off an incredibly accurate and precise shot with killer pinpoint aim as the ball can fly into the goal.

* **Line Drive Shot:** Natako is able to score with a powerful drive shot, taken from the byline and aimed at the other side of the goal. This is a shot that defies the expectations of anyone in the box anticipating a pass and can catch the goalkeeper off-guard.

* **Trivela (Shot):** A technique wherein which Natako puts spin on the ball using the outside of his foot. Natako hides his form, to force the assumption that he will shoot with his left foot, before shooting with his right.

* **Trivela (Pass):** A technique wherein which Natako puts a spin on the ball using the outside of their foot. Natako is able to make a pinpoint pass using the outside of his left foot in an instantaneous motion with his reflex. He is also able to use this pass with his weaker foot, and still make a pinpoint pass.

* **Crossing:** With his shot and ball control, Natako is able to whip in fast and accurate crosses from the wing position or from a deeper position in midfield. These passes have incredible speed and curvature, being able to fool other players as to their destination. Natako's crosses are so fast that even those with great reflexes can't react to one of his crosses.

* **2-Stage Fake Pass:** A technique wherein Natako puts his 'vision' onto the goal and getting into a kicking stance motion, but, as soon as an opposing play attempts to block or steal the ball, Natako can use his reflexes which causes him to feint the ball before sending a hyper-speed pass.

**Kaiser Impact:** Natako performs a high level volley that is so fast that it is hard to even see him kick the ball or see the ball go into the goal. Mixed with his Spatial Awareness/Predator Eyes/Metavision, Natako is able to fearlessly score near impossible shots with extreme accuracy.

* **Big Bang Impact:** Natako lifts the ball into the air. As Natalia jumps up towards the ball, his back pointing at the ground, Natako can perform a shot that replicates the famous “Big Bang Drive” but with more concentration in the shot and incredibly more power and speed put into the shot, making a clean goal. Natako used this to score the second goal for his team while being pressured by Minato and opposing defense.

* **Direct Impact:** By getting assisted cross, Natako can calculate the best way to shoot the ball and score. By the time Natako finished calculating, he instinctively shoots the ball with his Kaiser Impact directly into the goal. He uses this more commonly when he either can't receive and has another plan or he's ready to score.

**Flow State:** Flow, as described by Ego, is the state of "*total immersion*" or "*being in the zone*". It is the mental state in which a person performing some activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. When in the flow state, Natako gains a confidence boost as he gets more confident than he already is, which causes him to take more risks when shooting, passing, etc.
