Not a lot of options for Minato. If you don't like auto barrier, you could try using normal Gaara (preferably with breakthrough). Minato+Gaara+Kurenai+Wind; another option is Kushina instead of Minato in the same team. There are some variants with Gakido also, but I assume you've tried that already.

If you ever get Madara [Founder], you could try the team below (stack initiative on main):

you c*e ohnoki kurenai fire main and minato :D

Hey. Thank you for the reply. I have Gaara with 4stars fully breakthrouged. Working on getting him up to 5stars. I also have Hashirama. I might get his breakthrougs in the future I haven't really decided on whether its worth going for it or not yet. I know Madara would be the best option, but unfortunately I have only spent like 60scrolls into gnw treasure and still working on getting my kage super rare. I used to think we were going to have the same skill trial System China had and we were only going to need like 3star Az or breakthrougs and so on, but turned out thats not that case obviously… I could and probably Will try going for gnw super rare eventually but I feel like as a f2p it just takes way too much time. In the past I tried using both Gaara and Gakido. Played around with them for a while but I came up with the conclusion that as far as wind goes Iruka and Kurenai are my best options. I guess I could give Gaara a try, though. I mean back then I didn't have his breakthrougs. One thing is that I'll be getting Masked man in the following days. That might help me out a bit, not sure yet.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I actually considered using that team. Maybe replacing Kurenai with Masked man considering I'll finally end up getting him in one of the following days. But to be honest I'm just not sure I have enough initative to rely on auto-barrier just yet.
