It isnt necessarily an assumption. Its a fact,in some ways. Darui has no sensory skills.So how will he find out where Zabuza is?
We don't know how keen Darui's senses are but if we look at this from a feats perspective, I guess I stand corrected.
Are you serious? Is Kakashi a fodder according to you?
In Part 1 Kakashi managed to overcome the mists effects only after allowing himself to be cut so that the dogs could track the scent of his blood.
So,
1)Kakashi is an elite jounin. It worked on him, I dont see why it wont work on Darui. If I am not mistaken Darui < Kakashi.
2)Silent Killing can and will kill Darui. Unless you can prove otherwise.
Well no but Kakashi chose to use his ninja dogs due to the particular situation at hand. He had to protect Tazuna and Sakura from Zabuza so summoning the dogs would make the best strategy since if Kakashi himself goes after Zabuza, it would give Zabuza an opening. I may have to reread/rewatch that fight though, I admit I might be wrong here. During their first fight, Zabuza's hidden mist didn't make Kakashi useless, it only made Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura feel weak and pathetic since they were genin level back than. IIRC, Kakashi also has a keen sense of smell without his ninja hounds too so I don't think he needs them to beat Zabuza. In a 1 VS 1 scenario, he could go underground to escape the mist so Zabuza can't hit him.

Anyway I think Darui>part 1 Kakashi.
So why the hell couldnt Kakashi do all this when he fought Zabuza?? He had to summon a ninja dog. Darui cannot summon ninja dogs.
Already went over that.
Darui is trapped in thick mist, with no idea where the next attack will come from. Attacks by an attacker who can use water clones and is a master of silent killing. It is a sorry situation for Darui.
So he cant See, Hear, Feel, Taste , Smell. Complete Impairment upto a certain range actually.
True I guess you are correct. Although keep in mind that even in a foggy situation, you can still see what is immediately in front of you so Darui may still be able to react and counter if Zabuza chooses to charge him from the front. Although with water clones and other diversions chances of Darui do seem pretty low.
Make it low-mid. Zabuza shouldnt be messed with.
Meh I'll make it mid difficulty but not low.

Thats fine with me.

They cant be keener than Kakashi's.

I will give you another situation.
Kakashi and the entire Squad 3 versus the 7 Swordsmen of Mist.
How did they find out where the Swordsmen were? Using sensory Ninja.
Until they were given directions all they could do was stand in a Swastika formation and defend. Offense was never an option.
There is no other way around the mist, apart from sensory ninja or extraordinarily skilled trackers such as the Inuzuka Clan Shinobi.

I gave you an example of current Kakashi now. Darui<Current Kakashi.

Okay I guess I was wrong completely but I can't make it low difficulty based on the fact that Darui's lightning attacks do have a nice AoE and Zabuza would also be at a disadvantage if he can't see an attack coming. Don't forget that laser circus may emit a bright enough light allowing Darui to see a bit better in the mist.

You were'nt wrong completely,just in some places.
You have a point though, it shouldnt be low difficulty because of the Raiton advantage.
So I settle for mid diff.

I doubt the light would actually be effective, Zabuza always tries to move behind the target, so where ever Darui is looking, more than likely Zabuza's not in that direction

His techniques aren't weak? Dude, he has mist+silent killing and that was even feared against the 10000 ninja during war, Water Clone and Water Prison, very useful and tactical techs even used by the great Kisame, and Water Dragon and Giant Vortex Jutsu, both large scale techniques used by Kabuto......

Maybe to fodders his techniques are strong.. But to ninjas from Akatsuki or Madara, Naruto, Sasuke he can't do anything.. And about the water Dragon, his hand sealing is quite slow. Kisame can do technique like that with a few or one hand seal..

Its obvious you havent read any of my previous posts.
Is Kakashi and the entire Squadron 3 a fodder according to you?

Another thing, why are you comparing Zabuza to Madara and Akatsuki? This thread is about Zabuza vs Darui, Not about how strong Zabuza is.

His technique has certain advantages over Kisames, or at least so was seen in the anime. I will have to check in the manga.

Are you mentally challenged? Why are you comparing him to the top 10 ninja of all time out of the hundreds of thousands of ninja in history? He is in the top 50 ninja around mid 30's-40s, NikesonmyFeet made a thread on that.

And how is his techs only good on fodders? Dude.....he can beat Darui......And he can beat Zetsu, Konan, and Hidan, 3 Akatsuki

You should have read it because to him and I, you kind of sound ignorant.
