Which is a dubious victory, given what Madara says about him;
Even then, they were rivals constantly fighting to a stalemate. MS Izuna, who was equal to Madara then, low diffs someone like Minato

It's reinforced by Madara that no one is close to Hashirama, it's reinforced by the manga that no one is close to Hashirama & Madara.
Tobirama is not in their league.
That's after Izuna's death only, Hashirama was always superior to both, Madara was probably slightly stronger than Tobi before Izuna's death I'll give him that at least.
 
I think Minato is stronger than Tobirama but I definitely don't think the 8th gate "reaction" is a great argument.

That Kakashi instance is more of a feat for Kakashi, it's pretty consistent with other things he did in the war arc.

Tobirama's reaction feats aren't really anything super crazy though, Minato is just better at what Tobirama does, it's really that simple. Bijuu Minato vs Tobirama is a murderstomp though, Bijuu Minato vs Hashirama is a much more fair debate
I agree that Kakashi and KCM Minato is more a feat for Kakashi which is pretty insane since it was KCM Minato. For me its hard to say who beats who Tobi vs base Minato. Toss up either way since I think Tobi has a greater arsenal than Minato who is faster overall. If Minato uses SM though then he’d take it for me but IIRC he says he hasn’t practiced it in combat much so unlikely he would try it.

If we want to talk Tobi’a reaction feat then here’s one of his best since this was against SM Madara.

This one doesn't really mean much to me since he lol diffs tobirama afterwards, I don't think madara was really taking it seriously to actually scale it to tobirama, if he was actually more comparable to madara in speed, he wouldn't have gotten shish kababed, he could've just ftg'ed outta there
 
Might Gai's movement speed is faster than Juubi Jinchuuriki's reaction time and Minato completely shits on it. It's by far and none the best reaction feat outside of god tiers like Sasuke/Naruto.
It’s not faster than Juubi Jinchuuriki’s reaction time, Madara reacts to Gai’s initial attack every time, he was only trapped due to the air pressure Gai’s punches created, and still had reaction time to surround himself with Gudo Dama.
Madara even reacts to Night Gai, with monologue time to spare.
 
Are you seriously asking that question? Minato was borderline depressed after learning Tobi was Obito. Besides, Minato was directly involved in the fight against Obito while Tobirama was observing the fight from outside, so it's easy enough for him to notice what Obito did with the Gudodama, unlike Minato. That doesn't place his reactions higher than Minato by any metric.
Ok he was observing fine… what about this?

While being attacked so fast no one else knew what was going on (not even Hashi’s clone could do anything till after) he placed explosive tags on Juubito and marked him with the FTG seal before ANYONE knew what happened

The Fourth and Minato didn’t even realize he did it till he told them

:araboss:

This is one of the most unscalable feats ever.

Well battles are never determined by one shots. Tobi can dodge Madara but he isn’t perfect and Madara is either faster overall or also his healing hax played a role so he could’ve let Tobi take a hit and catch him there I dunno. But you can’t take that feat away from Tobi since nothing indicates Madara wasnt taking it seriously in that attack.

"nothing indicates madara wasnt taking it seriously" is a textbook argument from ignorance. I need reason to believe hes taking it seriously, because of the later events we see that to me indicate he's not. I'm not saying battles are decided by one shots but Tobirama should've not been hit that shishkababed if he was really comparable in any facet to madara in speed. If tobirama realized that his attacks werent doing damage, he's smart enough to know to retreat
