No it's completely different you implied Minato would just camp behind a tree and wait for Sasuke to worn out.
Gaara was taking the hit, it's a strategy that doesn't implies retreating so it's totally legit.
You're stupid, Gaara activated his sand armor because his sand shield couldn't keep up with Lee's speed. So he had to. The scratch on his face means nothing at all it has been clearly stated that the sand armor isn't resilient and it's purpose is to absorb the impact.
Again you ignore logical argumentation in favor of random insults.
WHEN is it stated that the Sand Armor ISN'T RESILIENT? If its purpose is to absorb impact and it managed to deal with the Extreme Lotus, it'd have to be PRETTY damn resilient.
If Lee used the extreme lotus Gaara would not have been dead, are you done pulling things out of your ass? The outcome would have been exactly the same, Lee would be half dead on the ground begging for Gaara to spare his life. Again, he didn't break through his sand armor with this punch, he just scratched it.
First attack Lee landed scratched Gaara's face, BECAUSE HE WAS UNARMORED. If he'd used the Extreme, or even the Initial Lotus at that point, Gaara would have lost. Hell, if he'd just kept attacking and not allowed Gaara time to use the Armor, Lee would have won.
Who cares if it was Gaara's toughest fight to date? It still wasn't enough to even make him bleed or injure him at all. If Gaara used so much chakra then how come he wasn't exhausted at the end? How come he wasn't injured just a little bit? You want to contradict manga's facts little fanboy? He did bypass the sand shield and kinda broke a bit of the sand armor., but in the end he didn't even scratch Gaara.
Well, if, as YOU REPEATEDLY STATED, Gaara was just toying with Lee, then wouldn't YOU care, as you now found out you were wrong? Gaara was bleeding from a scratch to the face. Contradicting manga facts isn't what I'm doing, and I even dish out less meaningless insults.

"Fodderized" means he did nothing impressive, even though he should have.
Lee displayed the greatest taijutsu feats yet shown in the manga. At least TRY to make sense...
Every time you reply you lose a bit more of your credibility.
Sasuke has surpassed lee's taijutsu in few months of training and BY THE WAY Gai's taijutsu is much superior to Lee's, you must be reading the manga upside down that's why your arguments are so flawed.
The wikia states that the armor sand is only made for absorbing impacts, go read it yourself. Or was it just Lee's hits that weren't powerful enough?
Again no Gaara wouldn't have lost, his sand armor would have protected him, quit saying the same bs, it's refuted.
I'll end this by saying that if Lee actually managed to push Gaara's too far he would have unleashed Shukaku just like he did in his fight against Sasuke. Now why do you think he didn't resort to using Shukaku? Well frankly because Lee didn't put up much of a fight, he didn't feel like he needed to. Here I just gave you 2 mangas facts proving that Gaara totally owned Lee. You can't contradict those, you lose.
Lee went mad bull on gaara,but unfortunately he wore himself out too much using the lotuses,especially the firdt one that failed,that was what made gaara get the advantage,before lee went gated mode,gaara attacked him,weakeneing him even more,so when he entered,the strain on him was much more than normal,and the fact he was kinda exhausted beforehand shortened the time he would hve spent in gated mode. Lee at that time was really very strong,just that he wasnt too experienced in using those moves yet. If not,he could have won that match,kishi trolled him greatly in part 2
So, here's a punch from Lee, unweighted but otherwise unenhanced:

A SINGLE punch with NO GATE ACTIVATED managed to completely remove Gaara's Sand Armor over a large portion of his face.
Here's Gai stating that the Initial Lotus is enough to break the Sand Armor:

And seemingly with good reason, the Lotus causes large-scale destrustion to the environment, nevermind the opponent:

But with the Fourth Gate active, Lee causes comparable damage with his FOOTSTEPS:

That kick ALONE should have been enough to completely disintegrate the Sand Armor along Gaara's jaw.
And then there's this combo:

You must be registered for see images
You must be registered for see images

Gaara should, by all rights, be reduced to bloody paste after all that. Unless the whole combo was WEAKER THAN A SINGLE UNGATED PUNCH, which seems to be the case:

If you look at the aftermath of the Etreme Lotus, Gaara's Armor is ALMOST COMPLETELY INTACT. And he himself stands up a moment later, seemingly none the worse for wear.
That just seems wrong to me.
Whaddaya think?
P.S: Who else wants a minion they can legitimately shout "EXPLODE!" to and expect something awesome to happen?
You've already got owned, you have absolutely nothing to say about this so keep your nose out of this.
In fact I doubt this other dude will find anything to say against my reply.

And every time you post I lose faith in the idea that you even read what I'm writing.
I wrote "YET SHOWN IN THE MANGA." Has Sasuke "surpassed" Lee at this point? Has Gai fought? No? Then I must be correct, unless you have other examples.

Gaara was a psychopath with an obsession about blood. Sasuke made him bleed (more than Lee did).
So Gaara lost control. Using Shukaku is less of a tactical decision (Oh no! I am outmatched! Time for my secret weapon: Shukaku!) and more of a sign that he's completely abandoned rational thought in favor of allowing "mother" to obtain some blood. How can you NOT know this?

The Armor is made for the single purpose of absorbing impacts. HOW does that mean that it isn't resilient?
So, using the Extreme Lotus on Armorless Gaara, or on the inferior armor originally shown, would STILL result in the Sand Armor protecting him?

It also says that it's nowhere as resilient as the armor of sand, go read it as I said, I don't like spoon feeding people, you know.
Gaara wasn't armorless at this moment, he can activate it his armor of sand at any times, again, the results would have been exactly the same.
Yes and you know it, Sasuke actually made Gaara bleed, unlike Lee.
How can I not know what? If Gaara unleashed Shukaku there's nothing Lee could have done, he would just get crushed just like Dosu during the chunin exam break. But frankly he didn't have to resort to this.
The manga proofs are still on track :
Gaara wasn't injured a bit after the fight
He didn't need to use Shukaku.
This is carzy lee got cheated and is a well know fact the only reason lee was
Because plot really no one in the C exam could have beat lee . That all fact
The one people that had a chance was naruto
