Perhaps it takes more chakra and stain's Obito's Sharingan more the faster he uses the technique.

He simply couldn't.

Kamui takes time to absorb, FTG is instant.

Nah. I was just being immature. Your title is a bit funny, if you choose to read it that way.

Actually, I wanted the title to be like this, but yeah its kinda funny i know....

But why did he said that he would warp him faster next time he touches Minato? Minato even stated if one of them touched first, then that one wins, AND by that he meant if Obito managed to touch Minato, he would be dead.

The only counter to kamui is KAMUI.
and if saying konan beat obito please re read the manga.

Only Kamui, but what about FTG?

Minato owned him twice in a row during the kyuubi attack, and directly slashed him with FTG instant attack during this war once, so i'm saying that Kamui is not that OP, but of course it does has some incredible effects in 1 vs 1..... however if Obito meets someone who uses FTG is guaranteed finished no doubt.

Plot,arrogance, wanting to warp him instead of repeated tbbs or mokuton attacks.
Clearly we wouldnt have a story now if obito tried harder.

The warping itself takes time.

Obito said that he would try to warp him as soon as he had touched him the next time but in all honesty, it makes little difference and is mostly just arrogance.

Time and time again we've seen the swirling indicating there's a time consuming process involved, if it were instant, we wouldn't see the swirling warping for so long.

Obito has to open the dimension > set the absorption in motion > absorb. FTG users just go, end of story.

FTG's simplicity is often seen as it's drawback, because it doesn't have the extra gimmicks of Kamui but when the former faces the latter, it's simplicity gives it the advantage.

Maybe Obito just doesn't like to suck Minato?
