And do you know why? Because Kishi nerfed the hell out of it after Itachi's death.

What makes Amaterasu strong is it's versatility, Sasuke was using his Sharingan like an amateur in those times unlike Itachi. But what you failed to realize is it's the perfect distraction as well as the perfect defence.

Furthermore, Amaterasu is used to its full potential when Enton is applied, someone with Sasuke's speed would hit any target he likes using an Enton sword. And now that he has Rikudou chakra Onmyoudon wouldn't work against them.

And do you know why? Because you typing in 'bold' sucked out the potency of 'black' fire

Amaterasu can still one shot 99% of NV though. Just because God level opponents can counter it doesn't make it bad.

I like how even Sasuke admits Amaterasu isn't even a game changer but just a mere distraction against Naruto at VOTE. It's just so funny with all the hype the jutsu has :lmao:.

Of course it had to be nerfed, if it wasn't... basically you would need to just look at someone, and he would die, how is that not op ?

Yes, someone with the Sage's body, that's what it takes to be immune to Amaterasu. But according to you it's fodder.

You can also counter it if you're Yamato or Hashirama z.z

I'd go as far as to say intelligence is less useful than good reflexes in the case of amaterasu. Most of those instances ended due to good reflexes. Knowing what to do won't help as much if you can't react properly.

I don't know what the hell you're reading but that stopped happening after the Pain Arc since Amaterasu was spammed without any way of tactical advantage :th:

I'd say that was a pretty smart move to do in combat

Rotation can also. And Madara absorbed it with no Rinnegan.
