Lmao.. So biased. What can Sasuke do? Snakes aren't present for heat sensing, sharingan doesn't work in mist. My 8 year old brother could figure out Sasuke loses, either OP wants to hear Sasuke loses or he's an absolute moron.
Mei is undoubtedly the most versatile female character of the manga. She is capable of using three elements ( Katon, Doton and Suiton ) and she has two Kekkei Genkai ( Futton and Youton ). In a battle she is usually calm and observant, as seen when she was able to detect the difference in Ao's behaviour when Fu was inhabiting his body. She is also somewhat skilled in taijutsu considering

The Mizukage has several ways to counter everything in Sasuke's arsenal considering she is a mid-long ranged fighter while Sasuke is mainly skilled in close and mid ranged combat.

Overwhelming Suitons

If Sasuke tries to roast her with his katons, Mei can potentially end the battle with three moves: at first she can counter Sasuke's Katon with her Suiton: Suijinchū then she can quickly use the same water for the

After this all Mei has to do is to crush Sasuke's body with a second Suiryūdan no Jutsu. This amount of water should be enough to obliterate a human's body, considering the databook states the Suiryūdan deals physical damage. Now you may say Sasuke can counter because he can fly, but he won't have time to enter in CS2. Even Madara had no time to counter Mei's second suiton or to activate a higher level of Susanoo ( or at lest repair the damaged one ) to protect himself.

As you can see, even the Susanoo wasn't able to completely stop Mei's Futton.
Mei can use her Kekkei Genkai to prevent Sasuke from getting closer. At first she will set up a layer of Futton: Komu no jutsu to protect herself. A layer of corrosive acid would without a doubt stop Sasuke from blitzing Mei, considering

So CS2 durability or not, even a sniff is enough to completely melt Sasuke's lung, even a blink is enough to melt his eyes. and even a touch is enough to melt his skin.
Moreover,

] She can cover the whole battlefield with lava, forcing with this Sasuke to activate his curse mark. Sasuke simply can't get close to her, but Mei can attack from a distance with her water dragons and lava torrents.
On the contrary to popular belief, Mei's Youton isn't slow. Sasuke was barely able to dodge her

I know Sasuke was weakened and slowed down, but keep in mind a few pages earlier he was keeping up with Mifune.
Even if Sasuke somehow can get close to her with the help of Orochimaru's oral rebirth, the Mizukage can still force him to retreat with a lava torrent or water dragon.
Furthermore, Mei can cloud Sasuke's vision with her

This should protect her from getting caught in a genjutsu and it should also hinder Sasuke in dodging Mei's elemental attacks. The Kirin plays no role in this battle because Sasuke won't be able to prepare it while dodging Mei's attacks.
False statement. The Mizukage is more versed in short to mid range techniques while only possessing one tech that is capable of all ranges which is Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu. While it is true that Sasuke is mainly skilled in short mid range combat he trumps Mei in this aspect with the variation and quantity of techniques. He also possesses two long range techs which are Kirin and Katon: Gōryūka no Jutsu which is this for those of you who don't know. I state this from the information I gathered from Narutopedia which may seem unreliable at times but is the only source as far as I know for the range of techniques.
I believe her Youton: Yokai no jutsu can be considered as a mid-long ranged technique.
You must be registered for see images
Against Sasuke she was using it as a close-mid ranged technique, but against Madara she extended the range of her technique by several meters. And like you said, her Suiton: Suiryudan no jutsu is definitely a long ranged technique. So all in all, it is safe to assume Mei is skilled in close ranged combat ( Futton: Komu no jutsu, Suiton: Suijinchū ), mid range combat ( lava globes ), mid-long range combat ( Youton: Yokai no jutsu ) and long range combat ( Suiton: Suiryudan no jutsu ). She also possesses a technique that has an aoe ( Kirigakure no Jutsu )
The Narutopedia is written mostly by fans. Obviously it can be a reliable source, but in Mei's case it isn't because she has no databook entry.
First of all the jutsu she extinguished wasn't Goka Mekkyaku but Katon: Gōka Messhitsu which in my opinion is a smaller weaker katon (but not by much) seeing as Mekkyaku was able to produce Juubi sized flames.. not that it matters though I just wanted to correct you on that detail.
Thanks for the correction. But apart from that, Madara's

was still more

Anyways what you say might've worked if sasuke didn't have knowledge or was an idiot both of which is untrue since Sasuke has full knowledge and is obviously not an idiot. I see no reason why'd you think that Sasuke would engage Mei with Katons knowing that she has the elemental advantage with suiton.
And Mei isn't an idiot either. She could easily force Sasuke to engage her in a ninjutsu
combat if she won't give Sasuke the chance to get close to her. Like I said, she can cover the area around herself with lava. The starting
distance is only 20 meter and as I explained earlier, she can extend the range of her
Youkai no jutsu. Her lava technique also covers a pretty wide area, so if she decides to
spam it, it will be impossible for Sasuke to avoid her lava barrage. This would force him
to enter CS2 and fly, making himself an easy target for Mei's Suiton: Suiryudan.
So you think Suiryūdan is going to obliterate Sasuke because the databook states it deals physical damage? I'm going to need more proof than that.. either way this tech or any of her offensive tech isn't going to catch Sasuke because of his speed and tip top reactions.
was used by Kakashi who isn't even
skilled in Suitons , yet it was still strong enough to onepanel Zabuza.

Yeah Rib Cage wasn't able to but no matter Sasuke isn't going to rush in there with knowledge.
If he isn't going to rush there how can he blitz Mei?
Dealing with Manda

While Manda is indeed troublesome, Mei can deal with him quite quickly. The fact that Mei
has full intel, she won't bother attacking Manda's tail, instead she will simply

to the highest possible level. Manda is durable, but he won't
be able to tank Mei's acid for long considering
You must be registered for see links
and considering Mei's acid was strong enough to

The pain would break the genjutsu. Now there is a chance Manda will simply turn
against Sasuke or he will simply disappear. Or Mei can simply kill him in the moment
Manda tries to swallow her. She can fill his mouth with a Youton: Youkai no jutsu. If
Sasuke is hiding in his mouth, he gets oneshotted.
Another scenario if Mei is going to stay stationary would be for Sasuke to get out ofrange of Mei's jutsu minus Suiton: Suiryūdan no Jutsu (which can be easily dodged at a far range) to prep Kirin with his Katon jutsu. [x][x][x] As you see in these scans he shot four in quick succession. Before doing all of this though he lost a massive amount of chakra from using orochimaru's replacement technique [x] This a fresh Sasuke so he should have no problem prepping Kirin which spells the end for Mei.
Why would she do that when she can use her techniques while running? She was able to keep up with Tsunade and Ay, and she was able to coordinate an attack with them. This means Sasuke won't be able to keep his distance. The main reason Sasuke was able to produce the necessary storm conditions. was the
You must be registered for see links
. The heat created by the amaterasu >>> Sasuke's flames. Not to mention Mei can intercept his flames in mid air.
He referred to Ay's lightning release body flicker and Mei's youton combination an impressive offense not her tech alone. Furthermore Madara avoided her youton jutsu fairly easily at short/maybe mid range [x] Ay was needed for this jutsu to be effective hence why Madara said it was impressive offense because they both worked together. [x][x][x] Sasuke should have no problem avoiding this tech.
True, but I proved it is really an impressive offense, so it doesn't really matter. Um, dodging streams, globes and small lakes of lava isn't as easy as you think. The lava won't disappear. Even a misstep is enough for Sasuke and he gets melted ( or forced to overuse the oral rebirth )
Mei wasn't trying to kill Sasuke? Are you joking? All of the Kage's intent was to kill Sasuke. Sasuke was able to dodge her attack despite not looking at her [x] [x] @bold Sasuke could've easily avoided it but he thought blocking it would be much more simpler. Besides if he dodged there might've been the possibility of getting attacked afterwards by chojuro which did happen (hope you remember). Even Karin was able to dodge it [x] [x] This was in a close range too and in an enclosed space so this technique has no way in hell of catching Sasuke in an open area plus with the distance between them.
was to prevent Sasuke from escaping the building. Mei wasn't aiming at Karin. The distance is only 20 meters and like I proved, Mei can extend her technique by 20 meters.
If I remember correctly didn't Itachi dispel this jutsu with Goukakyou no jutsu against Kakashi? Might've been anime only but it does create an explosive shock wave which could potentially dispel it. If not then no problem... while genjutsu may be nullifiedSasuke will still have no problem fighting in the mist. Kakashi did pretty well holding off Zabuza's attacks [x] [x] [] [x] Keep in mind that Zabuza thickened the mist to the point that the normal eye can't see and was only able to fight in this environment due to being a master at silent killing and by tracking his opponent by sound. To my knowledge Mei doesn't possess this skill as Zabuza does meaning that she will have to keep it where she would be able to see. This gives Sasuke the opportunity to rush her in this scenario to blitz and cut her down with his sword. Get her Chidori Eiso if he can't close the distance and manipulate it to do this killing Mei [x] This technique can reach 5 meters btw [x]
Hmm, I don't remember that happening. I'm not watching fillers.
But Zabuza had no Futton. Mei can easily combine her Futton with her Kirigakure no jutsu. The sharingan can see the chakra, but it can't see the difference between the normal mist and the acid mist, especially if they are mixed.
Mei isn't getting blitzed as long as she has her Futton 'shield'. She should be able to stop Sasuke's Chidori Eiso with her Suiton: Suijinchū. The water conducts the electricity, this means it will simply 'trap' Sasuke's Raiton. As long as Mei won't touch the water, she should be fine.
I'm fully aware of Sasuke's speed feats, considering he is my favorite character, lol. I agree with everything, but why are you using EMS Sasuke's speed feats? I thought this is Hebi Sasuke ( the one who fought Itachi ) and not war arc Sasuke with the EMS restricted.
Mei possesses only six techniques with one being long range.This won't cut it against someone like Hebi Sasuke who has a wider variation of techs. All of her techs are avoidable before Sasuke's sharingan precognitive abilities and speed. The ones such as corrosive acid can be nullified with what I said above... I haven't even got to some of his other abilities. Hebi Sasuke takes this match up from what I see.
But the Mizukage's techniques are perfect counter against Sasuke's techniques.
* Youton: It makes Sasuke almost impossible to stay on the ground * Futton: It prevents Sasuke from blitzing Mei. * Suiton: Suijinchū: blocks Sasuke's Katons, shields Mei against attacks like shurikens, kunais, etc. * Suiton: Suiryūdan: It has the power to damage Sasuke. It prevents him from preparing the Kirin. * Suiton: Kirigakure no jutsu: It can be a deadly trap if Mei combines it with her Futton. It can be a distraction if Mei has to close/longer the distance

One thing that hasnt been taken into account is would Mei use acidic mist with Chojuro around? He could stand behind her though while the mist is in front of her.
Cm2 fireballs waste a whole lot of chakra. If Sasuke does that, Mei will just create another mist and then he's screwed.
I heard a good argument where someone said that Sasuke's snakes can sense heat/body heat of a person which would allow Sasuke to locate Mei. However Mei can mix in her vapour style into the mist which would make sensing heat uses less since her boil release is all heat as well.
