Deidara fought Itachi, but that was MANY years ago, before he even invented C4, or C0, and before training to fight Itachi someday. Now that he's developed C3, C4, and C0, and a Doton Clay Clone to counter Genjutsu, plus a quick scope to counter Genjutsu with even more resistance, this fight won't be THAT one sided, now would it?
