I saw a thread saying his intellect falls short of Itachi's (how I don't know) & Minato (arguable), and then I thought the only reason why people say that about him is because his character falls short of actual power to match his intellect. Itachi has MS, God tier weapons, of course his claims measure his intellect. Minato has BSM, mastery of FTG, Sage Mode, samething. If Kakashi were an actual Uchiha, with the bloodline trait to handle the sharingan, his intellect wouldn't be questioned. I don't see too many vs threads with Rikudo Kakashi, because he is seriously op. I'm not going to list feats because we all know what he has done and what he is capable of.
The only thing that has handicapped Kakashi was and will always be power, but I don't feel his intellect in anyway is inferior because of that.
