ersonally I think it would almost always be a battle of whoever runs out of chakra first (not that it's a scenario we see much from these two). In the battle with Minato vs Ay/Bee, Minato was able to constantly evade Ay. Headcanon is that they'd be going back and forth for a very long time and Minato knew that, that's why he opted to hold Bee hostage for leverage. Don't know why people are saying Minato is better for 1v2ing the brothers, when all Bee did was hold Ay back. Ay loves Bee and wouldn't forgive himself if he let something happen to him thus giving Minato the upper hand.

Scenario w/ sage mode- Pretty sure Ay isn't as strong as the third but the third raikage was able to no-sell a KCM-enhanced Rasenshuriken from Naruto ( who I'm sure is stronger than Minato chakra-wise, not mechanically) even though the 3rd's armor should be weak to it. Now take Minato, who is supposedly an imperfect sage and was also unable to perfect his own Rasengan by combining wind release, what could he possibly do to Ay's lightning armor?

There's only one thing I imagine Minato could do. He could do the same thing Naruto did to the 3rd and make Ay punch himself either with a Rasengan to the arm or by using guiding thunder. It's a little different this time around though because Ay doesn't have the Nukite, only a straight punch so Ay may not be as incapacitated as his father had been.

Scenario without sage mode- Ay has shown to have a tremendous amount of chakra. With it I believe he would outlast Minato for a very long especially since Minato has no free chakra or enhancements from Sage Mode/ Kurama. Ay will straight up tank anything
