Orochimaru can't use the Hokages for 1 v 1 fights.

In order to remove the Hokages from the RDS he needs sacrifices to actually get the bodies. So yeah people saying Oro would win because of Edo Kages are wrong.

It's not 1 on 1 if he has others with him to begin with..?

He doesn't have to keep removing them every time he summons them. One and done unless they're resealed

He always has bodies laying around too

Dat logic... Edo Tensei requires prep time. Any fight with anyone using Edo Tensei means that that someone made the necessary preparations before the fight...

In case you didn't know, the edo Hokages and his arms are now free. If he release the kages, they won't go in the RDS anymore but rather in the afterlife or wherever souls go in Narutoverse

Edo Tensei should never count in 1v1 scenarios.

Lmao i hate that people consider edos in 1v1, i mean summons are cool but edos are NOT summons they are people and if your going to count them obviously the person with the edos is going to win( kabuto with 40 edos gtfo, orochimaru with kages? gtfo) because they dont have to fight and edos dont die it defeats the purpose of 1v1

There is no specific rule in 1v1's that say you cant do this or you cant include this ability. You can specify either
Oro (without ET) vs Naruto
Oro (with ET) vs Naruto
and debate accordingly. I dont even join in on many vs threads but Im tired of everyone complaining about how this or this doesnt count in vs threads. It all counts unless specified otherwise. Youre debating unprovable things from a manga that can only be revealed by one guy, far away. No one can really "win" a Vs thread debate unless the fight happens in the manga.

^ Because the user would almost always win. With that mindset you recognize that the Edo user is more powerful, but want to see how the ninja fares IF he/she could not use that jutsu.

False. I realize that the user would LOSE without it, and that they require the help of actually powerful ninja as support when they get their asses handed to them in a real 1v1 fight.

Wow. This is a bad thread
If you're just going to say Orochimaru needs prep time then say it.

Lets not play stupid. First off, Orochimaru has shown very few of his abilities, we can't determine his strength based solely off he's capable of without his arms. Edo is a jutsu just like any other, deal with it.

There aren't a lot of fair circumstances in vs threads. You can choose to restrict them if you need but there really isn't a point.

Is sharingen fair?
Jinki fair?
Puppets fair?

That's some twisted logic. So people in Narutoverse are more important because they are humans ? So Gamabunta is just a tool or Manda ? LOL What about the Snake and Toad Sages... Edo Tensei is a technique. That requires skills to use. It definitely count in a battle.

Think back to the fight between the Third Hokage and Orochimaru right after the chunin exams. He summoned the First and Second Hokage using Edo Tensi. Smh

The thought of Tobirama, Orochimaru, or Kabuto getting their "asses handed to them" by anyone is just so silly. No ninja can go undefeated, but these shinobi definitely do not need Edo tensei to wipe the floor 99% or narutoverse. But with Edo tensei? I will be cautious and say that they can defeat with 99.6% of narutoverse (maybe not Tobirama, since he presumably did not use talismans on his Edos).

No Oro cant use the edo hokage in a 1v1 because a) its not a 1v1 anymore & b) because edo hashi will murder him..
