Blue Lock: 8 Best Players Who Can Access Flow State, Ranked
Blue Lock revolves around some extremely talented footballers but not all of them can access the flow state. Here are the few who can.
The second season sets the stage for the Neo Egoist League, an exciting tournament that will introduce some of the best players from around the world. The upcoming arc will be filled with exciting goals and matches, but what will truly bring it to life are the new characters who will debut and go on to make an indelible mark.
1
Marc Snuffy
The Greatest Playmaker Alive
- Manga Debut: Chapter 155
- Age: 37
- Position: Forward, Defensive Midfielder
- Weapons: Off-the-ball Movements, Metavision, Physique, Ball Control
Marc Snuffy is a Maltese professional football player who brings a wealth of experience to the Neo Egoist League. Gifted with world-class ball-keeping techniques and innate talent to understand the flow of the game, he serves as a cold and calculative strategist for his team. It should not come as a surprise that he is regarded as the world’s best playmaker due to his ability to orchestrate attacks with precision and ruthlessness.
Before you are a football player, you are a person, regardless of whether you are talented or not. So value your life.
Marc has also been given the title of Crown Messenger as he has consistently led teams he has been part of to victory without ever faltering, demonstrating an inexplicable aura of leadership that turns everything he touches into gold.
2
Chris Prince
World’s No. 2
- Manga Debut: Chapter 155
- Age: 27
- Position: Forward
- Weapons: Knuckleball, Perfect Physicality
Often described as the perfect hero, Chris Prince is the world’s second-best striker whose talent is almost on par with Noel Noa. The English footballer has achieved almost perfect physicality and is extremely difficult to contain on the field.
As a designated target man, Chris is responsible for putting his physical strength to good use and holding onto the ball to create goal-scoring chances. He leads the English stratum in the Neo Egoist League.
3
Charles Chevalier
PxG’s Talented Playmaker
- Manga Debut: Chapter 244
- Age: 15
- Position: Midfielder
- Weapons: Off-the-ball Movements, Metavision, Passing
Known as PxG’s heart, Charles Chevalier is a midfielder whose eye for tactical oversights in the rival defense and ability to play the game depending on his instinct alone makes him a dangerous player. He can create goal-scoring opportunities from thin air and is therefore the perfect playmaker that every team desires.
Doesn’t matter if you hate me!
In the Neo Egoist League, Charles will support PxG’s offensive game plan using his high-level passing and talent for sniffing a goal.
4
Noel Noa
World’s Greatest Striker
- Manga Debut: Chapter 1
- Age: 32
- Position: Forward, Defensive Midfielder, Sideback
- Weapons: Physique, Ambidexterity, Acceleration, Dribbling, Off-the-ball Movements
Although Noel Noa is briefly mentioned as the world’s best striker in the first episode, he never truly gets a proper debut. In the Neo Egoist League, the French forward is all set to represent Germany’s Bastard München, which means he will be playing alongside Isagi and Kaiser.

Blue Lock: What Makes Ryusei Shido Such a Good Forward?
Although Blue Lock has produced incredible players like Rin, Isagi, and Bachira, Ryusei Shido is still arguably its best striker.
Noel is a complete forward who has the talent to single-handedly expose rival defenses and score goals from absurd angles and positions. His ambidexterity gives him an element of unpredictability that keeps his opponents on edge, making it extremely difficult to stop him. Noa’s participation in the Neo Egoist League will give Blue Lock players a taste of football at its best, shaping their games in ways that challenge their limitations.
5
Lavinho
The Best Dribbler In The World
- Manga Debut: Chapter 155
- Age: 29
- Position: Forward
- Weapons: Perfect Dribbling
One of the best footballers in the world, Lavinho is a perfectionist whose dribbling technique is nothing short of flawless. The Brazilian footballer represents FC Barcha in the Spanish league and is one of the top goal-scorers there.
When Lavinho is in his zone, it is almost impossible to stop him as his perfect dribbling allows him to move past rival defenders like a butterfly. There are very few footballers in the world who can predict his next move, let alone stop him.
6
Alexis Ness
Bastard München’s Dangerous Dribbler
- Manga Debut: Chapter 157
- Age: 19
- Position: Offensive Midfielder
- Weapons: Flexible Ankles, Dribbling, Passing
Known for his impeccable dribbling, Alexis Ness moves like a ballerina on the football ground, moving through defenders with unmatched fluidity and precision. He is also an efficient passer who creates goal-scoring opportunities for the striker, often making it look effortless.
It’s over, bee boy; the same rhythm won’t work again.
Ness always has a bright smile on his face and, in general, he is well-mannered around other players. However, he is obsessively loyal to Kaiser to the point that his servile nature around him seems undignified. Alexis’s involvement in the Neo Egoist League will push defenders to adapt their game and take the tournament’s competitiveness to a whole new level.
7
Michael Kaiser
The Prodigious Forward Who Comes From A Broken Home
- Manga Debut: Chapter 149
- Age: 19
- Position: Forward
- Weapons: Kaiser Impact, Predator Eye, Metavision, Off-the-ball Movements, Spatial Awareness, Flow State
Michael Kaiser is a prodigious U19 striker from Germany who is heralded as one of the future international football stars. Despite being physically abused by his father from a young age and growing up in horrible circumstances, he has overcome his traumatic past and used it as fuel to transform himself into a confident player with a relentless attitude on the field.

Michael has a superiority complex and a history of antisocial behavior that makes it hard for him to get along with his teammates. Because of this, he has developed a symbiotic relationship with the talented dribbler, Alexis Ness, in his pursuit of total domination and footballing greatness. Kaiser is a dangerous striker who appears invincible at the peak of his powers, making him one of the most exciting players to watch out for in the Neo Egoist League.
