So they were talking about shunshin when Minato is known throughout at that point because of ftg right? Minato was known for his speed and FTG, raikage also said in 541 that no one was faster than him since Minato died. FTG users also need to be faster than their opponant to hit them after FTG or else the opponant will counter them like Juubito and Juubidara did to Minato.

If an enemy is faster than an FTG user, they wont be able to activate FTG before the enemy hits them, like Juubito did to Tobirama. Minatos speed feat was that he set up his counter attack before A could hit him, and was landing strikes on him before he could move, not the act of escaping with FTG
