I perform the Rat → Dog → Tiger hand seals while focusing my wood chakra and spread it in front of me over the ground.1. Excellent point! A decoy, yes...always a great idea!
2. Hide them in trees in a forest technique I'll teach you later!
3. Another great canon move, will teach you more about it as well.
Rest is perfect! Excellent job!
Alright, proceed to form the handseals of Rat → Dog → Tiger, and then have Wooden pillars surround you at a rapid speed around you much like a shield.(Moku Bunshin no Jutsu) – Wood Clone Technique
Rank: B
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 20
Damage points: N/A
Description: The user creates clones of themselves made of wood that then sprout out of their body or are created from any nearby source of Wood, Earth or Water. These clones, however, are quite special as they maintain a mental connection to the user, communicating back to him even from long distances. An advanced use of this technique is to transform the clones into seeds that, once implanted or swallowed allow the user to track an enemy (that has it implanted or ingested it) by pinpointing his position through the same mental connection. Versatile, these clones can use Wood techniques as well as Earth and Water techniques up to S-Rank. This technique, when created by Uchiha Madara, creates clones with EMS/Rinnegan and capable of using the EMS/Rinnegan techniques like Madara himself.
Note: Follows the Clone battle rule usage restrictions

What could defend against?
Then I create several thick wood logs in line, each one of about 3 feet thickness from the earth, from either side of me using my wood chakra.
I freely manipulate them while creating them to form an arch and I make them to interlock at the center thus each individual wooden log will interlock at the top of forming a wooden dome.
All this process occurs at the same speed shown in anime.. Which is pretty fast btw..0_0
This wooden dome can be used to defend against equal ranks of most elemental jutsus except for lightning jutsus from one rank less of this dome.
Also this dome doesn't confer protection against any jutsus from behind me or below me.
Not to mention the fact that it blocks my vision at the cost of protecting me which is again a disadvantage.
I hope I conveyed my thoughts properly...
I'm dizzy... ~_~
