First of all if you are a Minato tard half the library get out.

Plot induced-stupidity
People forget about Madara catching Minato's wrist really easily and almost-warping him, but conveniently deciding to warp him slower than he was capable of despite knowing of and already witnessing Hiraishin.
A division of his power
The entire time that he was fighting Minato, he was also controlling the Nine Tails, you know, that animal that was fighting the village, that Minato had to give his life to seal, and that his badass wife had to chain up for him.
Madara was hurried
Controlling the Nine Tails isn't easy. Minato himself was clear that Tobi needs to kill Minato fast, and it's that hastiness that allows Minato to defeat Tobi, as well as a hell of a lot of plot protection.
Sharingan Genjutsu
Minato, like Konan, was staring at the Sharingan, but Tobi seems to actively choose not to use Sharingan genjutsu until the endgame, like Sasuke. That's pretty much plot-induced stupidity as well.
Complete Izanagi
Madara made one Sharingan last five minutes. That's ten minutes of Danzō-style of invincibility and teleportation. Which can be used
intermittently with intangibility, rendering Madara invincible.
Kunai Placement
Tobi's ability conveniently played to Minato's strength as well. Could you find a better position for a Hiraishin tag other than the back of somebody's head? It's too bad Tobi didn't use that feint that he used on Torune...
Minato's Strongest
Tobi tanked and regenerated from Minato's strongest attack in a way that Orochimaru would. So he can be intangible for five minutes, use Izanagi, buy seconds with genjutsu, teleport seal-lessly, and tank
Madara didn't have prep
This claim annoys me. Madara strolled in, murdered all of Minato's bodyguards and nurses with Minato in the same room, marched to Konohagakure, slaughtering many shinobi, and obliterated Minato's family. Akatsuki and him could have come back the next day and taken the Fox back if not for the plot.
