I want to talk about Sanada's "In".
How many techniques does it actually prevent in the series? We know it prevent Saiki. Does it prevent World of Ice? Atobe Kingdom? Irie's Understanding?
All we were told is that it eliminates prediction and SKnK. SKnK can be translated to Pinnacle of Wisdom and is said to be ''Brilliant Insight'' as HJnK was translated to Pinnacle of Hard Work and said to be ''Doubled Return''.
Since SKnK is Insight, I imagine it provides some defence against Insight. (This means Atobe likely doesnt have a dream of a chance against Sanada right now).
It also would eliminated Data Tennis.

Can anyone tell which technique is causing the clockwise Gyro Spin here?
Momoshiro is returning Bakyuun with Black Jack Knife so I cant actually tell which technique is causing the intense spin on the ball like this.

Sorry I didnt notice this.
In eliminates Prediction. Data Tennis should initally become ineffective against it. SKnK is out of the question aswell.
He becomes unpredictable, so it means you have to go on the defensive against Sanada.
It means unless you are a Counterpuncher (Fuji, Kaidoh, Yanagi) or are able to use a Counterpunching play style (Shiraishi, Yukimura) your at a big disadvantage against it.
However if you are one of them then the technique doesnt affect you so much, since playing defensively is the norm for you if you are a counterpuncher, and Shiraishi and Yukimura showed they are still top level even when defensive. Atobe also, for that matter against Muga!Ryoma was splendid defensively.
In short, as long as your good defensively its fine. Otherwise, if your weak defensively, you have no idea which of FuuRinKaZanRai is coming next and are unable to react to it when it comes. Therefore your finished.
World of Ice and Atobe Kingdom are Insight. In doesnt eliminate Insight. So no, it doesnt stop World of Ice from Irie or Atobe. Irie's understanding is his hack ability so it doesnt stop that either. Remember In isnt even Sanada's main ability in SPoT. So its not gonna be able to stop such power.
It doesnt prevent Atobe and Irie's Insight based powers. But eliminates Prediction.
This is what the manga has suggested at least.
