Misconception: "raikage would have won"

[Amaterasuice]

The Sasuke vs Raikage right was going to end in either a double murder (with AY burning to death and Sasuke bleeding out), or one fatally insured. That being, Raikage without a leg or Sasuke horribly crushed.

you're proof? wouldn't the arrow be the color of susanoo where the flames don't cover? clearly there is nothing there because its pure flame

Yes yes they would. Unless Sasuke covers the whole thing with enton of course.
Look at it this way. The only time enton displays cutting/piercing properties is when it is used in conjunction with susano.
It didn't do anything but burn those jubi clones when Sasuke used it here

So unless you have any manga scan of enton piercing or cutting without being launched from amaterasu, its clear he just envelops the arrow with flames.
