I know jokes are tempting here, but I'm actually curious to hear some legitimate opinions.
Base Jirobo.
Everyone in K11 know about her Shintenshin, so that most likely ain't gonna work, except maybe on Ten-Ten.
Ino is the complete fodder of K11 lol Does her war arc self even stand a chance in a 1v1 vs CE finals base Naruto and his shadow clones?
However, isn't it plausible to think she has her chances against Shikamaru with the right distance in an open field like Gaara vs Kimi?
Ino is somewhat a sensor and coupled with the location where there are no obstructions to visuals, she would always have an idea of where Shikamaru is.
Both then need to be stationary in other to use their techs and it becomes a case of whose is faster and I think Ino's jutsu wins here. That said, I have no idea how she brings him down.
She isn't catching any other member of K11 in her tech though lol
No, its not.
shika has the tech adv. in mid & close range w/ the precision of his shadows, while ino would never/can't even attempt her techs outside of long range(in a 1 vs 1). its not feasible, angles become so acute there.
so while altering his positional depth, shikamaru would simply chuck kunais, flashes & explosives until the ranges favored him. he is a better weapomns technician & strategist afterall.
U can't look at match ups like a card game where every jutsu to be played has a ''fair chance''
in a neutral scenario, that is usually never the case, and in this case, hers won't even be played
True Shika has precision with his tech over Ino, but I'm not sure it can be disputed hers is faster? In an open field with intel, at the very least she should be aware that Shika's plan would be to create diversions to keep her busy while he snags her with the shadow. If she's able to keep her distance, come out of the obvious smoke bomb and aim at the stationary Shika, I'm pretty sure she would get him.
Has Shikamaru ever been shown to move while his elongated shadows are not yet connected to someone?

shika won't be stationary until he's close enough that her jutsu becomes unusable. they can both use shunshin so its not like he'll blitz her, but conversely, she can't just maintain 30 meters indefinitely just because she wishes for it w/o any other jutsu to alter their particular match up dynamic.
her jutsu is absolutely linear, while his has multiple variations & can incorporate tools to enhance its properties, as well as taijutsu to a very limited extent{but when compared to inos bag of nothing, its a heavy factor)
I don't consider mobility as an issue for either of their jutsu, rather its range. I feel they can both apply on the run if they need to. but at this point, his shadow ''clutch'' jutsu from the war arcs ''ino-shi-cho_yo-yo combination'' prolly outclasses her completely in terms of speed & ''1 vs 1 range''
