If you are in a fight. Which Rinnegan abilities would you rather have?

Nagato's Ablities.

Madara's Abilities

Stop with this versatility nonsense. True warriors focus on what gets the job done. There is a reason Madara focused purely on Susanoo

The most inaccurate way of saying it but okay. Madara relied on his Susano’o ability and wood style abilities because he kept on wanking Hashirama.
He even threw a wood style ability at Bm Naruto and that thing didn’t work.

Versatility is important. The more versatility you have, the less chance you will encounter an opponent that is simply a bad match up for you. If you only have one thing, then if someone comes along who can beat that one thing, then you're screwed!

That for instance, is why Naruto's potential loss of RSM is such a bad thing! With just BSM, all Naruto can do is just nuke stuff with pure energy. He is basically just a watered down Dragon Ball character. Having said that, if Naruto encounters an opponent who also fights like a DB character, but who has even more energy than he does, then Naruto is probably screwed!

Like for instance, if BSM Naruto were to fight even the likes of Krillin or Yamcha in a crossover battle, then Naruto's whole arsenal would be rendered worthless since the DB characters literally swat attacks like bijuudama away like flies! You aren't even on Goku's radar if you can't at least destroy a planet with little effort.

Now with someone more versatile like Sasuke, I'm not saying that it is likely that he'd win, but at least with Sasuke's versatile arsenal he might be able to beat a DB character by paralyzing them or putting them down with genjutsu. Alternatively, he could say, swap with them via amenotejikara just as their ki attack is about to hit him, and basically make the DB character hit themself with their own attack. Sasuke could also absorb their energy via rinnegan and do other stuff.

If Naruto still had/has RSM (9 bijuus, truth seeking balls and everything), then though the chances would still be slim, he could potentially hit a DB character with a truth seeking ball and kill them that way since truth seeking balls destroy what they touch on at least a molecular level. Alternatively, he might be able to seal/bind their movements with a magnet release rasengan and then cut off their head or something.

However, none of these options are available to him without RSM, and he is stuck being weaker and unable to beat the likes of Yamcha!

Do you see what I mean when I say versatility is important? When you have versatility, then you have ways/options to beat a variety of opponents, even if that opponent might be stronger than you.

Now imagine Madara trying to fight a DB character with just susanoo alone. He'd get wrecked! Goku, Krillin or any of those people would just punch that susanoo to smithereens with no difficulty whatsoever and then get back to taking a nap or eating a sandwich!

If we throw in some versatility on Madara's part however, then it might be a different story.

See what I mean? (This is all coming from a Madara fan by the way)

edit: To answer the question, I'd rather have Sasuke's rinnegan, but I still hold that "Nagato's" rinnegan abilities are the common abilities to at least all Hagoromo based rinnegan eyes (by Hagoromo based, I am referring to Hagoromo's, Madara's and Sasuke's, the ones that came from Hagoromo's chakara), if not all rinnegan eyes.

Lol.

Nagato's rinnegan is weaker because he's an Uzumaki. As soon as Madara got his real rinnegan (not the crappy one from edo tensei) he took a massive shit on all the bijuus with just ONE EYE.

2 rinnegan Madara (real rinnegans) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> EMS Sasuke

I would pick the AK-47, but if we're speaking strictly the Rinnegan powers each grant, then it got to be Sasuke's.

Like Madara's it's installed with six path abilities and in addition, has Amenotejikara while retaining all Sharingan abilities: no eye is as versatile as Sasuke's, to be honest.

The Sharingan alone is versatile. Combining it with the Rinnegan is a rape on those two.

you will never see sasuke use all the paths cuz he cant lol. The only arguement his fans can bring to support their claims is "he's nerf" thats a poor counter argument and it provides nothing to back their claim.

Jack of all master of none comes to mind, I'd rather be a Jack of some und a master of others.
this is a solid mindset to have in life but when it comes to the elite levels of something its best to be a master and proficient at what works best.

Look at IT, Medical and law fields.

Solving normal/tough problems is easy for a jack of all trades but solving the critical and difficult ones is where the master comes into play. Thats the point Im making
