Could Mei (with intel) beat Itachi?

How do fireballs clear away mist? They will illuminate a small area for a moment with their brightness but once it fades the mist just comes back. Not to mention, Mei can extinguish the flames with her suiton before the fire even does anything, forcing Itachi to put up his Susano'o in response to the attack.
A typical Itachi fanboy response.

I don't know where people are saying that katon will clear the mist. It has never been shown in the manga to work.
Kakashi's entire batallion was under the hidden mist and you are going to tell me that none of the ninja are where capable of using fire techs?

Yes she can, Itachi has horrible stamina. He'll put up Yata Mirror, waste chakra on shooting Amaterasu, and die off chakra exhaustion. Itachi will win if he blitzes right from the start, or use genjutsu

Wouldn't Mei be already in Tsukiyomi before she can even finish her justsu? The thing is, Itachi knows people so well that he is able to react before people even begin their attack, quote: When Oro "attacked" Itachi, but Itachi already acted first, when Kurenai/Kakashi "attacked" him and already fell into his genjutsu from the get go, and when Sasuke "attacked" Itachi (Sasuke was able to counter because he also had Mangekyou Sharingan... does Mei?).

Unfortunately i can't rep you yet.
Although i disagree that she has any chance of winning whatsoever, i do agree that its not stomp in Itachi's favour.
Good effort nonetheless. Only NB vs fanatics think "Amaterasu one shots" and "Tsukuyomi gg" Lol

Well Mei already made eye-contact with Sasuke at the Kage Summit, and so did Danzo in his battle with him (twice), yet they both harbored full intel on Sharingan genjutsu. Looking into someone's eyes, especially the one's of the Uchihas, is inevitable; considering that there's also the option of coercing an individual to make eye-contact. I mean there's a reason why Kabuto covered his eyes with a hoody when both Itachi and Sasuke arrived at the cave and had a small talk before the the battle even begun. To bring the point home, Mei will inadvertently or unconsciously glance at Itachi's beautiful set of ocular entities, and be caught in an illusion at the very beginning or mid-way towards the battle. And I haven't even discussed the Finger genjutsu.
In the event that Mei miraculously doesn't get caught at the initiation of combat, Itachi still has answers to her techniques:
For one, by reading her hand signs, Itachi's 3-T Sharingan would grant him precognition of the impending jutsu. Due to this, he can swiftly counteract with, let's say, a Water Style or Fire Style attack, consiering that his hand seal + jutsu execution speed was too fast for a 3-T precognitive Kakashi + Kurenai and a senjutsu, reflexive enhanced DSM Kabuto, all before Mei has the opportunity to even activate any of her jutsus, including the acid mist. Basically, he'll interrupt the initiation process:
Even if she manages to utilize her corrosive acid mist jutsu, Itachi has the necessary body flicker/reaction speed to jump out of its vicinity as it's being released, and reply with a Katon or Suiton, in which their aggregate of condensed molecular particles will collide with that of the mists' and ultimately push it away via momentum, which shall adequately leave visible spots in the area, giving Itachi the visibility to perceive and track Mei's presence.
Once his sight is locked on her, Itachi can go about in speed blitzing her from behind, like how he quickly appeared to Killer Bee's rear without the latter noticing:
Or send a throng of full-sped flock of crows charging at her, making Mei flail, which provides Itachi with an opening to land a lethal attack however he wishes (kunais and shurikens to her vital spots, maybe).
Contrary to what most believe, Itachi doesn't need the Susanoo, Yata Mirror, Totsuka, or even the MS for that matter to defeat Mei. His overall speed coupled with genjutsu utilization would prove to be way too overwhelming for her.

there's several big problems on Mei's end:
1. Her hand seal speed is slow.
2. She's a glass cannon.
3. Even with the Kirigakure jutsu, she won't be able to see Itachi either.
4. Mei won't be able to discern his clones from the real thing.
5. Only Gai has shown the ability to fight a Sharingan user w/o looking into their eyes.
6. Itachi had considerable striking power, even when he was sick.
She still has a shot, but with all of those things going against her, i don't see much of a reason as to why Itachi can't beat her.
