What are you talking about? He is a freaking monster, the only problem i see with him is that his chases are a pretty bit difficult to match.

His ninjutsu growth is huge, he is *most certain combo initiator, and his mistery is insane. Combine his mistery with sage naruto to trigger it as prompt in round 2, and a fire main buff to ignited (which i read once it's about 80% buff, biggest one ingame), and you have one of the best lineups with this current meta.
