Minato's so overpowered compared to Tobirama, who we only saw fight very briefly and had most of his abilities hinted at rather than actually shown. He's faster than Tobirama, I'd say. But that and Rasengan are pretty much all he has. He pulled Sage Mode out of his ass and then never used it again. I'm assuming they're both alive in this confrontation, so I'm not giving him Kurama Chakra/Tailed Beast Mode.

Tobirama pretty much invented every jutsu ever. He's the greatest Water Style user ever, and according to the databook, he knew how to use all the other elements as well. He was able to kill Izuna, a Mangekyo Sharingan user who was supposedly equal to Madara. Minato lost an arm to Obito; Tobirama turned his own Truth-Seeking Ball back on him. We've seen Tobirama use multiple weapons and techniques to perfection, and I'm sure he'd know the weaknesses to a technique he invented.

So I'll go with my man Tobz on this one: Minato may be better with the Flying Raijin (by the way, who even taught it to him?! Minato: The REAL Copy Ninja), but Tobirama knows more about it than he does, being its inventor. And when it comes to jutsu and intelligence, not many people are better than him.
