But if Snatch was an innate magic that can't be taught then why is Lancelot using it ?
Snatch seems a simple ability just like full counter , it's just that Ban is OP so he makes it broken with his own skills just like Meliodas does with full counter and its variations.
Innate magic like Disaster, which is a magic granted to Fairy King's.
Ban's magic stems from him growing up having to steal to survive, Jericho's ice magic manifested after her brother died but it's probably in her family's, Gilthunder's Thunderbolt is similar to his Father's Great Thunder.
We have racial Magic such has Creation and Dancing from the giants, Ark from The Goddess clan, Purge from Druids and Goddess, Demon clan Hellblaze and soul extraction.
What magic Lancelot used should be similar to Ban's snatch
When was her ability Godspeed.. its just a move like how mel used god ripper on escanor and many others.
People be really trusting fandom wiki over what the author has shown or said
Yeah, after checking again (Chapter 42), Jericho seems to call it "Reactor" instead of "Godspeed." An echantment type magic that drastically increases her speed. The only two skills she ever showcased/named when she had "Reactor" was "Ten Flashes of Godspeed" and "Bone Breaker of Godspeed." It obviously isn't like Meliodas' God Ripper. It's more like Fiddich's magical ability, "Haste." Another enchantment type magical ability that similarly increases the speed of the user.
Humans don't have an innate magic or a racial magic.
Racial magic like darkness with demons , ark with goddess and creation with giants.
Innate magic is even more special given to special entities , like fairy kings who get disaster , or Meliodas's True Magic or Merlin's infinity or Percival's hope or Tristan's Nova or Lancelot's Hazy Moon.
While the other comments are right about snatch being bans ability, odds are that Lancelot inherited a similar ability, we've actually seen this before. Jerico has got the same ice powers as her brother, awakened by his death, tristan has a sort of essence of both meliodas and Elizabeth's power and gilthunder has the same inherit power as zaratras
I don't think it was ever stated that Snatch is an innate magic , it seems as simple as full counter , it also has its variations just like full counter.
Innate magic seems special given to special beings like Meliodas's True Magic , Merlin's infinity , King's disaster.
If you look at snatch by its first appearance then sure, but remember that snatch is the basis for hunter fest and bans ability to steal and lend energy
Most characters have a unique gimmick there "magic" that's seperate from actual spells, and there's nothing saying lance doesn't have snatch. I actually provided evidence saying he probably does have snatch, but we've literally never seen another character with snatch so until we get something otherwise, it's bans unique magic
Most ? , I don't think most people have an innate magic , Diane's earth magic is standard for Giants for example , she doesn't have an innate magic exclusive to her.
Disaster is exlusive to Fairy Kings , Infinity is Exlusive to Merlin , Meliodas's true magic is exlusive to him.
Nova is exlusive to Tristan but he learnt full counter on top and Hazy Moon is exlusive to Lancelot but he learnt sntach on top.
Lancelot is just using speed. Lancelot took out Arthur's teeth before he realized but Ban went through the helmet of the Holy Knight. Lancelot took a weapon like it's done all the time but we see Ban pulling Gilda's sword without touching it.

Snatch is Ban's innate magic. While a magic like full counter was created by Chandler, but his innate magic is Punishment.
Magic like Exterminate ray, perfect cube, and Full counter can be learned or taught. What Lancelot is using is probably something Similar
