Gaara doesn't need to be I a sandy area.

[Simbv]

I'm just clearing up the misconception that says Gaara needs to be in a sandy area to have an advantage In a fight. A lot of people keep saying that Gaara is at an disadvantage in a fight if he is not in a desert area. A lot of you guys need to brush up on your Part 1 Knowledge.

Gaara has an advantage anywhere.

 

[Bling Kai]

Gaara is awesome.

 

[Filo]

Except in water right?

Wrong, that part where that guy wet Gaara's sand and it slowed him down was a filler.
Nice try though.

Yes, he can create sand [Almost] everywhere. And while that ability is extremely useful, it cannot compare to the advantage granted to him when he's in a huge, natural desert. Creating enough sand to be able to compare to the vast amount of sand one can find in a desert would be flat out exhausting, and frankly, probably impossible, considering the fact that the minerals he uses to create sand are bound to run out sooner or later.

A highly concentrated acidic paste is suddenly released from the mouth. The acid boasts such high density and concentration that it is even capable of diluting stone, vaporising it. Because there are no prerequisite moves to do before this techniques' activation, Katsuyu can easily strike quickly, and catch an enemy off-guard with this attack.


That only proves that the sand is made of material that can be smashed and melted,

Ot: useful ability, but it can be avoided

 

[Lucidus]

i thought this was obvious by how he turned the entire feild into sand against kimimarou..

he would obviously have an advantage on his own turf since the sand is already there and he doesnt have to bother turning the dirt beneath his feat into sand he can just inject his chakra straight into rather than taking a little bit of time

It's been a year since you joined, and you still seem to be unable to shut the f*ck up about Sakura/Tsunade when it comes to topics that have absolutely nothing to do with them.

Read that scan again. He said it takes nearly no effort to create sand. Even if the minerals do run out, that sand is still permanent. And if you've seen that fight you will no that there are plenty of minerals in the ground. He created a mint desert with all the sand he made.

But we don't have any manga evidence that says he does have an advantage in water right?

No we don't, but one shouldn't imply that water slows him down. Anyway it's manga fax that yata mirror is can block anything but it had only blocked snakes, but no one questions it's ability.

To some people it isn't as obvious.

Oops wrong thread, and your doing way to much, just don't. Bow down,

Ot: while that may be useful, certain attacks can render than advantage useless

 

[Colonel Armstrong]

yea....i thought this was a well known fact/feat for him...

If Amaterasu isn't doing anything to sand, Katsuyus acid definitely isn't doing any harm.

You're not getting my point. Being in a natural desert has three main advantages over a terrain where he'll have to create it himself.

1. Whether it takes a lot of time or not is irrelevant, he still needs to knead Chakra, and then bend down with his palm on the earth before creating it. Although this may not be too time consuming at all, it will still leave him open to an attack for a limited period of time.
2. It takes Chakra. Whether or not it takes a lot doesn't matter too much, the outcome is still the same. If he intends to create an amount comparable to that of a desert, it will take a decent chunk of Chakra. Just considering the vast amount of sand one can find in a desert, compared to the amount of sand he created when fighting Kimimaro, should be enough to realize that.
3. Limited amount of minerals in the ground. Regardless of how much sand he can create, finding enough minerals in the ground to create an amount of sand comparable to the amount of sand in a desert, is close to impossible.

Long story short, I'm completely aware of the fact that Gaara can create a vast amount of sand in a small amount of time in almost any situation. My sole point is that regardless of how much he is able to create, it won't compare to the amount of sand that would be at his disposal if he were fighting in a naturally created desert.

Fire and acid are too different things, the data book proves that acid vaporizes stone, sand is tiny rocks

Wrong….. The data book states that the Yata mirror can block anything…. The data book says nothing about Gaara having an advantage everywhere

lol its common sense. Water makes anything heavier, especially sand. Have you ever tried carrying a bucket of dry sand and then carrying a bucket of wet sand. Wet sand is much heavier. Heavier sand means more chakra used to control it.

I just said that Yata mirror can block anything.

Manga Scan or nothing happened. I argued with you before about commen sense but you didn't want to hear it.
