Fuck you, that's why.

Since when was Tobirama considered fodder when he was tied for being the fastest ninja in the Narutoverse with Minato?

Choji = Kin/Gin >>> Tobirama, thus Tobirama = fodder. Duh. :maybe

------------------------------

I won't lie. I'm a Tobirama-sama fanboy. His EoS zenkai was some pure, indefensible bullshit. But I don't give a fuck. His aesthetic is the shit (#RealNinjasWearBlue). When Kishi went "Oh, hey. Toibrama is now the godfather of every worthwhile jutsu, the fastest thing after your mom dropping trou at the dockyard, and he's the picture on Orochimaru's personal body pillow", I just nodded along and ordered my own Senju cuddle bro. Pretty sure this dude can literally 1v1 anyone beneath the version of Madara that put him down in canon. And I think he can probably take this fight.

A bare minimum of 4 Tobirama's working in tandem via Hiraishin is just a fucking nightmare IMO. Once he's marked the battlefield (and even just with him and his clones marked) Tobirama gains full spatial control of the metaphorical arena. I think something that gets overlooked is that Hiraishin can teleport others with just a touch. So he can control his enemies positioning, as well as his own.

With OBD stats, one of Tobirama's clones could tag the far side of the planet in a blink, or yeet a tagged kunai into space. Only the latter would make for any kind of game-winning BFR, but just the act of being shuffled around could be extremely disorienting. And this kind of confusion could combo well with more basic ninja skills like the Transformation technique and even the standard Clone technique.

Madara proving that Tsunade can be bisected really handicaps her regen's combat effectiveness. Decapitation + Hiraishin to distance the body from the head should put her down permanently. Not that it matters, it would be a cold day in hell before she ever tagged Uncle Tobi. If it weren't for her keeping the others alive, she could legit just be ignored. Well, she could be ignored. Katsuya, less so. Oro didn't want any part of that acid, and Katsuya's ability to swarm the battlefield via a nigh-infinite number of mini-mes makes for a very tangible threat. She should really go down first.

Jiraiya and his summons are non-threats outside of Sage Mode. SM could be trouble, though. Especially if Jiraiya reaches the form before Tobirama can put down Oro or Tsunade. SM let Jiraiya keep pace with multiple Peins, its precog is the one thing in this match that could help mitigate Tobirama's speed advantage. Unfortunately for Jiraiya, Tobirama is an extremely adept sensor ninja. There's no way J-Man can stay hidden long enough to pull this off. Not unless the whole squad rallies around letting him reach the form.

Oro's regen is the real deal. And he'd obviously last the longest in any scenario. Tobirama is smart enough to engage with clones, so I don't see him being taken down by poison. But I'm also not 100% sure how he puts Oro down. Outside of ET's continuous explosive tag technique, Tobirama doesn't have a good way to put all his raw DC behind a single attack. No way to blast Oro away in one go. Maybe that space BFR has more merit than I thought. :hm
 
I think what takes it for me and most other people is because Tobirama is a very practical and rational man. As a ninja with actual common sense which isn't a trait most characters in the Narutoverse has, this makes him especially dangerous. For recap, look at how Sasuke and the rest of Team Hebi shit themselves when Orochimaru summoned the four dead Hokages and Tobirama broke Orochimaru's control and his killing intent cowled them; with even snake man looking like he was realizing the error of his ways.

Add in his fondness to combining Hirashin with infinite spawning self-replication and self-summoning exploding tags and its ridiculous how overpowered and versatile he is because only few Kage levels or above ninjas ever mastered all five Chakra types much less are seasoned sensor-types. The only reason Hashirama is stronger is because he has Senjutsu Mode and Mokuton as well. Also if I remember right, even as a Edo Tensei summon, Tobirama after being split could still create Shadow Clones and teleported the Juubito with little effort; something Minato admitted he couldn't do.

Also Tobirama is quite adept fighting since childhood against the Uchiha Clan and their Sharingan/kekke genkai doujutus. The man beat Izuna, the most powerful Sharingan-user who had mastered the Mangekyou Sharingan via misdirection and and use of Hirashin. He's incredibly resistant to illusions and genjutsu techniques from what the best of the best like Izuna and Madara could offer, a legendary swordsman, and the fastest ninja besides 8 Gates Gai and Minato. They even had to retcon the Gold Brothers into having absorbed tons of the Kyuubis chakra to explain how he died.
