It's Orochimaru obviously. No one can top his versatility. Everything you need, he's got it.

- Kakashi
- Sasuke (Hebi)
- Hiruzen
- Madara
- Jiraiya

These are the most versatile characters... Not in any order and not all of them.

You just named the least versatile character in the show as an example of versatility.

Actually, Ash-bones is very versatile because it corrodes any defense and her execution of it precludes evasion except for those with elite reactions such as RSM Naruto. It's literally tailored for almost any situation honestly.

Because one attack is tailored for any situation doesn't make the character behind it versatile.

Madara can have his susanoo up, that would be tailored for 99% of situations in the manga. Doesn't mean if he just sat there in his susanoo for every fight he's a versatile character.

She's strong so her attacks are going to be tailored for any situation, that much is a given.

Good, then you literally concede that she's versatile.

ToshiZo is right though, using Amaterasu flames for multiple scenarios is considered versatile, being able to use over 1000 ninjutsu techs for specific battle scenarios is considered versatile, having an avatar that can be applied to different scenarios isn't, that's just straight up raw power.

P.S : Madara not being the most versatile doesn't mean he's not one of the strongest, you can still be in top 3 and not versatile, Kaguya being the best example. Couldn't apply her ability to fit different battle scenarios yet was still almost unstoppable

P.P.S : Madara having potential to be versatile =/= being versatile. He made it clear his strength is relying on raw power, versatility isn't part of his fighting style unlike Sasuke or Orochimaru.

Well yea if that's what this thread is asking. Top 10 strongest characters.

Doubt it is though.

Power is naturally intertwined with versatility, but it's not the only factor, hence why Kaguya is versatile, but not one of the most versatile. Grizzy was just illustrating how one jutsu can make one pretty versatile with Ash-bones which is not erroneous considering it is a versatile offense that corrodes any defense.

Nope, power level and versatility are two separate things. You can be versatile and have low power like part 1 Kakashi. Kaguya wasn't able to apply her Juken to CQC, was never able to use element jutsu like Hiruzen, Sasuke or Naruto, and didn't even attempt to use copy jutsu nor Rinnegan feats let alone COAT.

For someone of her level she's the least versatile. What would Itachi or Sasuke be able to do with her RinneSharingan, what would Hashirama be able to do with her Six Path Senjutsu and what would Neji be able to do with her Juken ? Now compare how they would use her power to how she used it. That's why she should not be considered in the top 10 versatile list.

Again, I'm talking about versatility NOT power level

I already said this, you can have a versatile single attack, but that wouldn't necessarily translate to being a versatile character.

For example, if someone manages to counter your versatile attack, how you deal with things from there would be a test to see how versatile you are, not your single attack.

Inability to deal with the situation could expose you as a fraud.

And the chances of that are very slim. In Kaguya's case, only a select few have countered the attack, but merely being countered by it by a few individuals does not discredit how said jutsu has been effective for 99% situations.

Dude, no one is saying Kaguya isn't versatile, all we're saying is her versatility feats are NOT worth putting her in the top 10 list.

Sasuke has a Susanoo that can't be countered by 98% of NV, but if he solely relied on Susanoo that wouldn't be enough to make him the most versatile character, cause in the end of the day he's only using the same jutsu in the same way, it's a feat displaying raw power not versatility.

Never argued that she was in #10, but claiming that she was among the least versatile ninja is false. Either way, Grizzy's point had some truth to it and served its purpose to illustrate what versatility means.

Which is exactly why the attack is versatile, not her.

Lmao..

An ancient being with Rinnegan and byakugan, capable of dimension jumping, universe destruction and creation isn't versatile.

If she wasn't nerfed she would have killed everyone. With literally anything in her arsenal.
