That would be a very weak defensive method against someone like Tobirama. Tobirama can FORCE the uchiha out of his defensive ring. When he beat Izuna, he marked one of his kunai with his FTG mark. He can do the same to force sasuke out of his protective ring, and even then Sasuke would still have to watch out not to get burned by his own flames while trying to escape Tobirama. Not a versatile defensive method.

If you look closely, there are three techniques that made the cumulonimbi clouds:

1. Sasuke's and Itachi's Gokakyu colliding 2. Itachi's Amaterasu (which by the way covered the whole forest around them, which is, as you may come to notice, quite a large area) 3. Sasuke's Goryuka no jutsu, which he btw used in his cursed seal version 2 form.

Still think this is not "much" more than itachi's ordinary amaterasu? I think it is.

Your question does not make sense at all. I am saying that you would need much more steam than fire to heat up the atmosphere.

Don't know.

So yeah, you're basically implying sasuke would keep his susano'o up all the time just not to get hit by Tobirama. He can't do that. Don't think tobirama would not know about this(having watched and even FOUGHT a Susano'o user that is many times superior to sasuke in every aspect of battle). Don't think Tobirama would not try to finish the battle as soon as possible. If you think that Tobirama doesn't have any jutsus that can destroy his susano'o or even overwhelm it so sasuke is out of balance. I think you are familiar with Suiryudan, or even Suiton: Suidanha could be used here.

What makes you think he'd have the time to do it? Tobirama can engage him in close quarters combat from the beginning of the match, or even when their fire and water techniques collide. His clones can use the FTG technique, and he can make a clone with a marked kunai. Himself and his clone could then try to mark sasuke.

You are basing your arguments on the (false) fact that Sasuke has immensely large reserves of chakra, and that he can afford mass spamming susano'o and amaterasu.
