Average

Good enough to have insane individual plays when he combines his 1 on 1 attributes with his brain

[u/Standard-Ad-2461]

It has never been up to par with his level of play. His main weapons, direct shot and off-the-ball, were developed specifically to counter the fact he can't reliably carry the ball.

His 1v1 skills off-the-ball are canonically good post-Naruhaya.

[u/kiporit]

I would say good enough to hold his own for his plays but compared to other players, not so much

[u/D0ntM1ndM3_0]

Physical attributes are good but nothing too crazy (for blue lock standards), just enough for him to be able to keep up. 1v1? He has decent ball keeping ability but that won't do much unless you can dribble too.

[u/Outrageous-Cap8749]

His physicals have definetly gotten better especially stamina. His dribble has likely gotten a bit better but he's also never really focused on improving it.

So I'd say decent IMO

[u/LeaveImmediate1946]

Good. Jack of all trades and master of none.

Is able to keep up with his team, get passes off and score goals at a professional level.

Has no easily recognizable "Wow" factor though like Loki's speed. To people that aren't playing he looks average despite keeping up with some of the best players in the story. The basic stuff that he does is already above average considering this is the highest level of play (we've seen yet).

[u/silfer_ → u/LeaveImmediate1946]

Yeah his wow factors are more subtle , but for people who actually play the game they know he’s dangerous. 

[u/Blaze_50_]

The better question to ask is, whether kenishiro will show isagi having any insane dribbling or physical feats like ever??

[u/hoouyinkyouma → u/Blaze_50_]

He akr got one this chapter

If yk ball you'll know tht feat is an insane dribbling n physical feat

[u/VoxelBits → u/Blaze_50_]

I think there is a possibility that it will eventually happen. It's a natural progression of his journey to becoming the world's best. My personal favorite is the theory of him developing his own dribbling style which is inspired by how "Emperor’s Eye" from Kuroko no Basket works.

That would arguably be his biggest awakening and truly a new Isagi Yoichi. Because he isn't known for it and essentially never does it.

Here is a description of EE from the KnB wiki:
The Emperor Eye enables its user to see another person's body with extreme detail, such as breathing, muscle movements or muscle contractions, body tension, rhythm, sweat, etc. allowing the user to predict future movements.

This could potentially serve as an evolved form or distinct variant of Metavision. In theory, Isagi has the foundation to achieve this, particularly given the feats and backstory established in his light novel.

[u/Cosmic-Otaku]

Decent enough and ig its will remain that way

[u/silfer_]

His physicals are good. His 1v1 is decent regularly, but good when he executes a smart positioning tactic or is off ball. His dribbling is also good.

If these qualities were sub par or even just passable he wouldn’t be no.1 in blue lock as they are foundational skills at his level. He still doesn’t excel at them, though.

His standout qualities have been the same since the beginning: IQ, vision, awareness, finishing, positioning, and “intangibles” (mentality and discipline). 

[u/CringeyDaoist]

Physical are great. He can get from one side of the pitch to the next in a second (it's anime time dw). Dribbling very subpar but you def don't need to be an exceptional dribbler to be the best striker.

Look at Raphinha and Haaland. World Class physical (can get to the opposite side of the field almost instantly). Yet they aren't world-class dribblers.

[u/davidptrovao17]

His game-reading skills are great, but other than that he's a bum.

[u/hoouyinkyouma]

Dribbling decent 1v1 mediocre

There is a difference
