I never see anyone address the fact that Deidara had Tobi place Explosive Landmines for him during his final battle against Sasuke. This had a great effect on the state of the battle( sort of) and yet they say Sasuke's victory was an asspull, and even go on to say that whenever he has outside help (whether if they are just sitting around E.g. Tobi and Karin in the Danzou fight, or actively participating as in the Taka v. Killer B fight ) it somehow invalidates his victory(or loss) or makes him seem weaker.

*I.e.

Deidara would have probably lost faster if not for his outside help.

Ty and Sasuke solos (lol =D)

Sasuke should've been dead but plot armor is too strong.

"I'm out of chakra" *does boss summon, genjutsu's him and gets inside in 1 second literally*

That's undeniably an asspull

Sasuke would have blitzed if Tobi wasn't there to distract his 1st strike. Oddly enough Sasuke planned the whole great snake escape in the 1st place. Sasuke never said he was out of chakra as well. Deidara just assumed he was. Sasuke solos and haters gon hate.

Sasuke never said he was out of chakra tho he was only in that state because he used chidori on himself. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sasuke wasn't going all out either.

So really it was 2v1 for a while and Sasuke keeping himself from killing Deidera. If plot was anywhere, it was on Deidera's side.

Correct. Sasuke never wanted to kill Deidara anyway. Did anyone notice that Obito had to resort to Intangibility to evade Sasuke, when the guy was keeping up with KCM and BM Naruto? Let the denials come!

Also, the best feat from Minato where he rescued Kushina is beaten by about thrice the distance Sasuke covered when he evaded the mines' blast by exiting right, and we only see about 80% of the explosion on screen:

Deidara is forced to use Shī Tsū because he thinks that 'Sasuke's movements are definitely too fast'.

Please look at Deidara's size and the Dragon's size.

Now check out the size of the explosion.

Sasuke escaped the explosion and Deidara comments on his speed once again, saying 'Damn, he's fast!'.

Best Minato Body-flicker feat: - Note the size here. The size of the cliff and Obito's head. Now compare it to Dragon size, along with Deidara's size and the size of explosion: and .

Note: Minato covered the distance exactly from Kyuubi's arm to that cliff.

That's 'Literally' about thrice the size of distance Minato covered.

Not to mention the fact that none of the Kages in the summit - bar Onoki - took Sasuke alone. Not a single one! That's Sasuke for ya.

I would love to see a panel for the bold, when he was using additional chakra to keep Orochimaru suppressed. The rest happened on-panel? I must have missed that.

Problem with this is that we already know that Deidara can create clay clones, and we know he can use hiding like a mole technique. Those two right there are manga facts.

Basically, Deidara could have easily planted the mines himself with the aid of a clay clone, he just used Tobi coz Tobi was already there. Seriously you're grasping at straws with this one. This was in no way a two on one fight. If it were, Sasuke would have been neg diffed by Tobi on his own.
