As always, mi short thread, i always make them very short, read it before posting okay?

In my opinion, he's underrated by some (fodder), and overrated by some(kage level). This is my exact opinion about him:

He is a very strong shinobi (physicall strenght) , he was able to send kakashi fliying with just one kick and he could use the heavy kuribichoro with just one arm.

I'd putt him as a HIGH JONNIN level, BUT, able to beat some KAGE LEVEL shinobis. Why? He has a very OP atack (shame we only saw him using it against a sharingan, wich is its perfect counter) This atack is hidden mist+silent killing, imagine, fighting a very fast and strong oponent wich you can't see or hear. He would be able to beat some akatsuki ass IMO, this technique allows him to kill opponents much stronger than him (always that they don't have any doujutsu).

PD: The fact that he is able to beat some kage level nin, doesn't make him kage level (kakashi can solo a bijuu with kamui, but he isn't bijuu level)

I am making this thread because he's my favourite character (i am not a fanboy and i have proven it)

Well, he's definitely jounin because that's what he's ranked as in the series. Beyond that, who cares?

But still Kabuto did edo him too, and proved that he's still a good fodder. Anyway, Zabuza character might not be as strong as u think he would. Thats y Kishi buried it first.

He's actually VERY powerful, just had a really bad match-up against a Sharingan user.

I honestly think he's pretty weak in general. His sword is the weakest out of the 7 and the only jutsu to make him deadly is silent killing.

But I believe he is the weakest swordsmen alongside jinin akebino

High Jounin level, but still not good enough to be kage level.

Zabuza is strong.

He can kill everyone that isn't a sensor or have sharingan or byakugan.

Even then he could do it.

he is underated indeed... when he was trying to assasinate the 4th mizukage he probbably went up against obito too but just didnt know obito had sharingan or he did but he never really talked about the assasination so he wouldnt give early clues to the later plot i believe

What bad match up ? His most potent jutsu (Hidden in the Mist) is super effective against the Sharingan due to the Mist being made of his chakra so the Sharingan can't be used to determine his location through chakra-seeing and it also makes genjutsu useless against him... Now if it were a Hyuuga who could see through the Mist, it would be a bad match up. Kakashi was the one at a disadvantage

He had huge and powerful suiton attacks and great control of suiton affinity(controlling the mist at will over a large scale). His silent kill is always difficult to handle especially when he combines it with Kubikiribôcho and finally, he fought Obito, which prove he is strong :D

I dont know why ignorant people like u think Zabuza was the weakest out of the Swordsmen:

1. He was noted multiple times in the manga to be the best at Silent Killing and that no one compared to him at it.

2. He was the only one out of them to be able to use the simple Hidden Mist Jutsu. So since he died the other Swordsmen were quickly defeated. Without Zabuza their power is strongly weakened.

3. He was shown to use at least 1 other jutsu. He can perform Giant Vortex Jutsu, Water Dragon Jutsu, Water Prison Jutsu, and Water Clone Jutsu.

4. Only him and Kushimaru were Anbu

So just because his sword was weaker he is the weakest? Zabuza was the strongest out of the ORIGINAL Seven Ninja Swordsmen, when I say original I'm excluding Kisame.

He's surely an elite Jounin but I personally don't believe he can beat the Kages that we know about although he'd give a few of them a rather hard time.

Show me a scan of when Zabuza did this?

Well IMO he is mid-high jounin level since he has jounin level suiton, nice stealth, strength, stamina and good at CQC.
