Can someone tell me what part of DemonicAvenger post is that really convincing? Once again, Gaara's sand properties are the reason why Gaara loses this match-up easily.

Like i've already stated, his sand has the bad habit to contain everything while protecting Gaara

Can someone explain me how he doesn't get killed by FTG-blitz when kunais are that close from him?

Gaara has much more sand to work with. Any the Kunai's getting that close to him is unlikely.

Even if the unlikely scenario were to arise that Minato could get close with FTG, Gaara can use Gakusa Maiso to crush him. While hes safe using Sand Dome or Suna no Yoroi. The likely hood of Minato being crushed and captured increases the fewer kunai that are near him.

Though again, Chances of Kunai's being near Gaara are slim to none.

And how so? Gaara is one of the most static characters in this manga when throwing kunais is one of the most fastest move in the manga. So how doesn't kunais end up directly on a static character like Gaara let alone near him? I also find it funny how you think that while catching MInato then crushing him with his sand, someone as fast as Minato who could appear and disappear every split of seconds would just be there standing and waiting Lol

That's just the problem though. Deidera proved that it was possible to slip items inside Gaara's Sand Dome. Minato could easily do the same, then teleport inside it. It'd be cramped but it stops being cramped once Minato shoves a Rasengan into Gaara's chest from such close quarters.

Plus, We've seen Minato being able to place his seal on basically everything. He can just seal a section of sand then wait for the right moment. Gaara has the unfortunate habit of recycling all his sand around his body...At some point, Minato's seal or kunai is going to get near Gaara, and then that's the end of that.

Minato does not have to teleport directly onto the seal, when he saved baby Naruto from Tobi, he teleported at least 10-5 feet away from his seal. This gives him a lot of flexibility in how close he needs to be to get to Gaara.

Adversely, Minato's body flicker in of itself is faster than Lee's gates. Gaara can't with stand that many blows from rasengan.

Thowing Kunai definately isn't one of the fastest moves in the manga. Some characters can do Jutsu faster than the average Kunai thrown and Minato's "Kunai Tossing" is around average, he hasn't done anything special in that regard.

Also note that theres full intel.

The only sand that Garra precisely guards himself with is the sand he carries.

As knowledge is full for both parties, kunia would be the easy thing to counter and predict for Garra. Minato' s best resort would be using tags. However, Garra's sand is disposable so this wouldn't do much, since minato can't attack and defend at the same time.

So with each kunia throw into a specific location, sand will be there. Minato can teleport back and forthz but unless he uses an offensive attack to makes Garra rush for protection (sand shield) Minato's chances are slim.

The only clear advantage Minato has is unlimited chakra from being Edo

You do know that Minato's Body flicker outdoes the 2nd Hokage. Both who are significantly faster than Lee or Guy using gates.

Just in terms of speed, Minato takes this.

Being faster than Tobirama is pointless. Your almost misinterpretting something, he was refering to FTG, not Shunshin.

Except that EVERY translation available says Shunshin. Not FTG. I don't see why you are trying to argue a point against people who translate for a living.

Seriously. This scan alone either shows that Minato can either throw kunai so incredibly fast and accurately that Gaara has no hope of dodging them. Or that Minato uses body flicker to place them around the MASSIVE juubi some how got up high in the air, tossed a kunai in front of naruto and teleported to it.
