Was this purposely made to make it hard to counter? Considering you wrote your reply within the quote as to make it unquotable.
Anyways, Suiton does not pack a wind force behind it to move objects. That's like saying waves in the sea have the directional wind force to move clouds in comparison and equivalence to a powerful wind gust. It doesn't take a genius to realise water cannot generate as much wind as a wind gust itself would, saying otherwise is naive. A water dragon itself also does not create a powerful wind force around it, it simply creates a powerful mass wherever it is present and moving towards. Fuuton like Atsugai is wind itself, thus it can push things towards an opposite direction. Why? Because it is wind, this is logical..
Mei gives her Suiton a pushing force.
And about the rest? Tell that to Madara's Susanoo.

Her being tired does not lead to her hand seals becoming slow. Her body is exhausted, and she is running low on chakra, that does not mean her fingers are now in lack of speed, not remotely. Tsunade reacting was because of the Byakugo, however, Mei didn't react not because she was exhausted, but because her hand seal speed is slow. Anyways, that just comes to show Tsunade was capable of jumping in front of Mei before Mei could even finish her prep, signifying she isn't as fast you are making her out to be.
She finished her hand seal lol. What are you even talking about? She just couldn't execute her jutsu in time. And Tsunade was under the Byakugou Seal effect - fresh and constantly healed.
Kakuzu's reaction speed movement speed (via shunshin) are more than enough to evade those slow moving lava quantities. Has anyone even been hit yet by the lava without having initially evaded? No. Saying the lava is quick enough to hit Kakuzu would be amusing. Sasuke was capable of evading her quickest moving Youton while his back was turned to her and his body was exhausted [You must be registered for see links]. Saying Kakuzu would fail to do so with his immense reaction speed would be inaccurate.
Kakuzu has Shunshin? Mind reminding me that part? Moreover, I was refering to immobile Kakuzu in Domu - if he dares to use it.
He doesn't get hit, and even if he is hit, it will most likely be a partial body Domu, not a full body Domu. This would mean he cans till freely move regardless of the Youton on his body. Anyways, even if he will absolutely be hit by the Youton, the correct method of defence is not Doton, but rather having his near infinite threads take the attack, and then cut them off.
Partial body Domu isn't saving him from and no Domu at all isn't saving him either from all the lava left on the ground.
With Youton temperature and stickiness, he's not having enough time to do any of these thread things you mentioned.
You are correct, it is likely Hiding like a Mole knowing the fact tendrils could not move under such pressure underground. However, I fail to see why Hiding like a Mole would have any negative impact on Kakuzu. No jutsu will be capable of reaching him down there. Water will have no effects as it won't pass through the sand like underground after kakuzu has passed it. Youton is to viscous to even move through there. Futton has shown to be localised instead of a constantly dispersing jutsu, so it will also not be capable of reaching underground (let alone having effect if it does). Furthermore, nothing suggests he cannot use a full body Hiding like a mole if he can use it with one hand, meaning any Youton is evaded with this, and sneak attack can be created with this to restrain Mei's movements, while Gian charges an attack to decapitate Mei.
I never said it was Hiding like a Mole. It must've been some Doton jutsu to enable his hand move underground. And he's never shown an ability to do that with his whole body, especially other hearts not wielding Earth Release.
Do not compare Kakashi's speed to Mei's sharingan or not. Nothing suggests Shikamaru would've ever made it in time to counter, he merely attempted to do counter, as why not try when you have a slight chance?
But Shikamaru DID react to it... It doesn't matter if it was something hidden in the scroll, a kunai or a sealed Kyuubi in his pocket. He was going to attempt to counter Gian but Kakashi was first. He was a Chuunin with 2.5 in speed. But maybe you want to tell me that Mei isn't faster than that?
Anyways, Mei will have to react in time, but of course, her reaction speed feats do not even compare to the likes of Kakashi's. She will have to jump? Yet she has no notable feats of instantaneously jumping without any running, seeing as though that requires immense strength to pull off, which she has no proof of. Evade? No, especially if two are coming at her. Anyways, I have already mentioned a tendril through the ground to catch her feet while Gian is being charged will cause her to either be caught or be distracted, either or; she ends up dying. For your point of her countering, I can't tell fi you are being serious. Kakashi countered with Raikiri, also known as Lightning cutter. It was foreshadowed it was so sharp he can cut bolts of lightning with it, so for obvious reasons, he countered Gian. Mei can counter with what exactly? Youton? No. Fuuton? No. Suiton? No, unless she wants to die from the water conducting the Raiton.
Lol, lava-covered ground (in case she misses with Youton) creates a perfect CQC and underground defense. He's neither coming close to Mei as long as she's in the lava nor sending any underground hands, since they would burn before even getting through the lava layer.
And considering that Ino had time to warn them and THEN Kakashi jumped in and THEN he countered Gian, Mei could easily JUST dodge it.
