Fair to Say Tsunade is a better support character than 1v1 fighter?

[sharingansennin]

In Gokage fight she was able to help everyone with the chakra, the healing, the power, she's more of a support type fighter than a 1v1 battler

 

[Kαmi]

Very fair IMO. Besides Naruto, she's the best support fighter there to me.

 

[Rainbow Dash]

This was obvious from the moment she was portrayed to be the Sakura of the Sannin.

 

[Kirikoe]

i thought this was already established... she is very much there to help those on the frontline but atleast if it comes to a 1 v 1 she has what it takes to defend herself

 

[AllseeingSharingan]

No she can do both. Her 1v1 battle skills are amazing too. She used all that charka healing others. If she was by herself she could battle hrs n hrs

 

[Edo Odin]

Obviously. She's a Medic Ninja. Their job is to be a support, rather than a front fighter.

[~Naruto&Itachi~]

Naruto solos with the BM cloak

 

[FemmeFatale]

Yes and no
She was the only one who stood a chance against him, no really. She is a watered down hashirama with his healing abilities and better strength.
Tsunade was said to be I unmatched in combat, and if we look at what she did with Naruto and his kunai, her speed feats, and her drunken 6days restless and rusty state of mind while fighting Kabuto....not to mention Sakura sasori feats, who adapted tsunDes fighting style, we can peice together a powerful fighter.

Yes she got stabbed in her fight with Madara but she was being reckless.

We never seen a full powered Tsunade, if anything I'd say her support role is her handicap.

Also her senses are enhanced, as seen when she read orochimaru's condition, meaning that her skills in tracking countering and analyzing her opponents attack are enhanced. Tsunade is probably the best tai jutsu fighter, yes better than Gai, Gai only has speed over her, people equate speed with the power to blitz, Tsunade tracks her opponent, she is too durable to kill, and her strength is unmatched

Tsunade is probably the best tai jutsu fighter, yes better than Gai

Ahahhah

It is not just about speed, by the way Gai have shown better tracking feats than Tsunade; he could track 5 gated Lee and can fight an opponent by mererly looking at their feet.

Also he has better technicality than her, not just speed. Even you watch them in same speed, he has more techniques, versatility, and weapon usage.

 

[Headmaster]

Lmao using that medic logic from 2012 this is 2014 that logic cant be used.

Tsunade is not just a medic
kabuto is not just a medic
chiyo is not just a medic

Ahahhah

Yes, but if he was her speed and they fought she would destroy him simply for the fact that any hits he would block from her would be devastating regardless. His speed is a key factor in his taijutsu, he has shown more form than her but that is irrelevant if she is quick enough to hit you IMO.

By the way, how can we compare tracking feats? I'm not aware if she has any.. she's been in like what two fights

We don't even know how Tsunade could deal with a fast taijutsu user anyways, lack of battles means we cannot see how this sannin handles certain things.

OT: She is a better supporter than 1v1 i mean her greatest skills are medical ninjutsu related and even just to fight as a supporter to someone with her taijutsu is already threatening.

In 1v1 though she's not bad she can defend herself and possibly pull wins.
