So out of different variants of poison usage in combat those are the most distinct/prominent (feel free to add more info here, as usual I'm tired and might miss something):

Sasori's use:

Advantages:
- His poison is spread all over his weapons and even iron sand constructs, so there's a big chance of contact;
- His poison is unique and it is hard to extract it and create the antidote.

Disadvantages:
- It takes some time to kill victims, meaning they do have some chance of being cured;
- There *is* a chance to dodge his weapons (and even poison clouds).

Torune's nanobugs:

Advantages:
- They seem to act quickly and can probably kill in less than a minute;
- Only Torune (and his father) had the antidote. And poison kills victim quickly enough, leaving no time to research and create and antidote.

Disadvantages:
- They can only transferred by touch (not counting filler but even there he couldn't just spread them around easily);
- You can tear off a poisoned body part to survive, they don't affect the whole body at once.

Hanzo/Ibuse's usage:

Advantages:
- Poison spreads through air, and Ibuse can create a fairly large cloud. So, a good chance of hitting the opponent;

Disadvantages:
- It can be countered with a breathing mask;
- Also like Sasori's poison it doesn't kill immediately. And Kankuro and co. were seemingly cured quickly from it.

So basically we have poison that has high probability of actually reaching the target but doesn't kill quickly and the opposite. We've also seen minor/non-combat uses of poison. Which uses do you think are the best? Which would you use? Come up with some new ways to use poison if you want.

I honestly don't feel that the fact that it takes some time to kill can be considered too much of a disadvantage for Sasori. A single touch will paralyze you completely, and even if he decides to leave the victim alive for some reason, there's only a single person who has been shown to be able to create an antidote in the world.

Personally, I feel that Sasori has this one without much doubt.​

Sasoris is probably more deadly, Torunes is most likely more accessible.
But either way Tsunade counters it.

They weren't really elaborated upon that much. Shizune can spit poison clouds, Oro uses poison a lot but in mostly in non-combat situations. His true form was itself poisonous, right? But it wasn't seen in action since Sasuke, er, resisted it I guess?

But if you want to you can put up an analysis of them, like I said I'm quite tired at the moment so I may be missing something :|

Sasoris is probably more deadly, Torunes is most likely more accessible.

Yes, given enough time, I guess Sakura/Tsunade/Chiyo could have created antidotes against most poisons but it doesn't mean they are carrying a chem lab with them all the time :|

Lmao, no in the war Tsunade counter Chiyo poisons effortlessly and it embarrassed her, lol.
And I think she is better than Sasori, not only can she counter his poision, (Sakura feat), but she also have hype of her own

Shizune must be pretty badass in it too, because she said not even I can do anything about it.

I'm sorry Hanzo dominates anything to do with poison.

His is the ultimate poison, a tiny bit of it and you die instantly without even noticing. Hanzo had to wear a mask because he would accidentally kill people just by speaking and breathing in the same room as people...

There are others who are talented with it but Hanzo takes this,

First of all, why post a tiny pic which you can barely read instead of the page itself? [ ]

Second - This still does not change his point, the fact still stands that in order to actually cure the poison, they'd need ingredients and time in order to create an antidote. It's not something one can do in the middle of a battle.​

She got taught about it and all that shows is that she's more qualified about it than Jiraiya or idiot Naruto, this humble brag (of a manga page of her failing and being helpless) isn't good proof.

Also you're not seriously trying to say she's more talented than Sasori, Kankuro or Hanzo are you

But he told Mifune that his poison kills in 3 days (or so). It paralyzes you instantly yes, but doesn't kill right away.

Tsunade could be a pretty deadly offensive poison user. She has done it before in terms of tricking Jiraya but i mean in the midst of combat.

Her poisons are odourless and colourless, tasteless. Something I haven't seen from other poison users. If she were to use them in battle she could be pretty awesome.

Her goal doesn't even have to be to kill the opponent with it. However, to turn the match in her favour. Look how she made poison to mess up Jiarya's chakra control. Imagine if she were to take on a ninja and criple them in various ways they would be useful to her. Especially because she is close-mid ranged fighter.

Ha, just imagine that combined with that jutsu she used to mess up Kabuto's nervous system. That's be pretty awesome.

Yeah body pathway dearrangement, but alas it seems some of the great combo ideas of the naruto fanbase were never thought of :S
