Could a Byakugan user dodge Shinki's attacks better than a Sharingan user?

I think the benefit of having 360 degree vision would've helped covering any blind spots and also getting tagged by Shinki's Iron Sand and if the Byakugan user were to be tagged by his Iron Sand they could use Gentle Fist One Blow Body to expel the Iron Sand from the body

Also do you guys think Sarada utilized the Sharingan properly in the CE Battle Royal?

I suppose so. Byakugan and sharingan go neck to neck if its 3T sharingan. It depends on user till then. Like hinata wouldn't do any better than sarada but neji would.

Yes to the first, 360° vision is defintiely beneficial.

No to the second due to nerf and bad writing.

My only concern with Sarada this episode was the lack of genjutsu usage

She couldn't think. Shinki presence was just overwhelming. I am actually surprised she didn't faint based on how the episode was written.

You're not the only, she had many opportunities to do so even to create misdirection to head shot Shinki. Or use other jutsu to counter but she didn't do any of it after figuring out the weakness straight away. There's no guarantee she would've won but we definitely would've had a better showing of her abilities.

Sarada's usage of the Sharingan has been garbage. Whenever Sasuke went from base to Sharingan we saw results.

Vs Haku - evaded his attacks whilst saving Naruto. Haku knew that if the battle continued, he would be lose, so he used the unconscious Naruto as bait.

Vs Lee, was getting whipped, activated his Sharingan, revealing 2 Tomoe for the first time, still got whipped but the results were phenomenal. Copying Lee's moves allowed him to defeat Yoroi, and Gaara. The latter of which 5 Gate Lee failed to beat.

Vs Orochimaru - Outsmarted and burned his face off.

Vs Gaara - Activated for Chidori, and wrecked.

Etc.

Sarada used it against that fodder she defeated in 3 seconds, as if it was required. Then against Shinki did nothing.

Sad, but true. I wish when she activated it she actually did more. Maybe they will change things once she gets more than the worst form of Sharingan. I mean, in some fashion, 1 Tomoe has got to greatly reduce the sharingans effectiveness. We saw how major the improvement was when Sasuke went from 2-3 against Naruto, going from barely keeping up with inhuman speed and reflexes to suddenly demolishing him in every way in close combat, seeing his movements before they even started.

Fingers crossed she started fighting like Itachi when she gets more Tomoe.

Byakugan/gentle fist would be more beneficial than Sharingan in this case.

I'll go with the Byakugan since that's the area where it shines over the Sharingan. Whether the user could physically react or not is another story though.

Hell no, the hygua doesnt dodge they counter if not they spin like balarineas real fast. And somehow deflect dmg. ....so stupid hell no any way the hyuga clan techs can do anything. Maybe the open plam but THAT was some ass pull move given to them to make up for nejis death.

Gentle fist will have an effect. Just ain’t shit anyone can do once he flies. I’d be a defensive uphill battle.
