Signature move
- Every raider has a move for which he secures most of his points; Naveen Kumar’s signature move is “running hand touch.”
- This move is enacted with surprise, and coupled with a sudden increase in pace, a raider rushes towards a defender and extends his entire body for a quick touch with his hand before escaping to safety.
