well i expect nothing less from u as blaze said u are the only minato fan that use logic,no reason why we can't discuss, even if we have differing opinions
nagato did put a lot of chakra into the deva path as opposed to the other paths true. and naruto was greatly advantaged with having knowledge and not having the deva path fight for most of the fight.
but personally i think the animal paths, and any summon apart from katsuyu and hanzo's ebisu, is almost useless in that level of a fight. the deva path evaded bunta's attacks really easily, and minato is faster. Naruto also wasn't hit by any attack apart from the deva paths', and he doesn't have teleporting to bail him out.
the only attack which i realistically see hitting minato is shinra tensei, especially bigger ones. this is because minato probably couldn't teleport away in time, the kunai are all blown away, etc etc. It disrupts minato's strategy and is very powerful. for that to happen however, the deva path needs to be in minato's range, and i'm assuming other paths will also get hit by the attack. and if deva path uses larger shinra tensei, he will hurt minato too, but the gap will lengthen and it will create an opening for minato to put a mark on him.
the most frightening thing about minato is that even simple sparring with him is very dangerous, as he can put a seal on you and then you have to win before you get killed basically. that's why i think he'll win, the deva path has to make just one mistake against him, like choosing to dodge a kunai instead of blowing it away, or sparring. the other paths are really a non-factor. And it's already been shown that a rasengan is enough to take down a pain, even the deva path. and minato does his rasengan much faster than naruto, in less than a second, and his is slightly larger than naruto's original too. the animal, reviving and deva paths were all taken down by rasengan.
ok lets start from the animal if i remember the dog and the crab/shrimp pets is actually quite formidable why ?
the dog cannot be taken down physical attack u have to seal it inside a frog barrier like j-man did
and the crab/shrimp that beast can shoot soap/bubble like to cover the entire ground and it will automatically take minato footing,
that's why i said the 5 path aside from deva will use that bird to go airbone while deva will fly on his own,
and shinra tensei will definitely hit minato but 1 shinra tensei is not enough to kill someone like minato as we see kakashi he got hit from 2 shinra tensei and completely helpless, now u say deva will have to use the ultimate shinra tensei, hmhm deva is airbone so yeah he can kill minato with that but its not a smart choice, snice there is a wild chance that minato will dodge the attack and deva will completely useless after using the power of the six,
hmhm yeah i agree taijutsu is fcking forbidden against minato try touch him and he will put the FTG mark somewhere in ur body, i even think that the reason why tobi need to use zetsu part for his arm its because he have to cut the parts that got hit with FTG since that's the only way to remove it.
oh and also a mere rasengan cannot completely paralyze the path as we seen the naraka path is completely fine when the animal path summon the other path before deva wreck konoha, but that aside since all the path is on the air so minato will never reach them.
