In my time on the forums I've seen a bunch of people post about how they hate when people use ninjas like BT Kushina, Edo Minato, Kakuzu. They say it's lazy to use these ninja, it doesn't require any strategy and it's just an auto-win if you have them. Basically people don't like the centralization of the meta around a few characters I guess. I personally disagree that it's an "auto-win" to use those ninjas, but I get it, I'm tired of Edo Minato too. And I'm interested in non-meta or at least less-meta teams. If I were a whale who could beat most people with any team I'd definitely try out some more unconventional ones.

So anyway I want to know, from the people who always complain about meta ninjas, what are some teams you actually respect and think are cool? Or even if you don't hate the meta, what are some cool teams you've seen or built that don't have, like, BT Kushina, Minato, Kakuzu, Rinnesasuke, or GNW Madara in them? I'll also take it if one of those ninjas is on the team but in a support role they don't usually fill.

I'll start. I like the idea of teams with BT Edo Tobirama. I think he has potential but he's not really meta so most people don't have him 4* and I don't see him much. But when I have seen him, I've seen that he can hit hard. In some setups he could be like Kakuzu if you did it right. Plus he has that barrier! I haven't seen anyone use this exact team but I think something like this could be cool:

Imagine Tobirama's skills are +2 mystery, +2 standard, Y+1 chase, and +2 for both passives. Ramen Naruto would have all BT +2 except the passive (Y+2).
