Sasuke's an experienced fighter, sure. But that doesn't mean he's a *good* one.


 * Underestimated Lee and almost got his head kicked in.
 * Got the world's creepiest hickey from Orochimaru.
 * Let his anger take over and got mind-fucked by Itachi.
 * Thought he was tough enough to take on the Sound Four.
 * Only won because Orochimaru was weakened, which he admitted.
 * Just barely escaped Deidara's C0.
 * He didn't kill Itachi; illness did.
 * Almost died like 4 times fighting B.
 * Almost killed by A, Mei and Onoki within the same hour.
 * Danzo could have killed him, but he was holding back in case he had to fight Tobi.
 * Stabbed through the heart by Madara, with his own sword, .04 seconds into an altercation.

Sure, Sasuke has a lot of jutsu, but that doesn't mean he uses them. Kirin was a badass jutsu and actually really powerful, but he only used that shit once. It would have killed Itachi if he didn't have Susanoo. He was able to imbue a Fuma Shuriken with Lightning chakra and rig it to dismantle, that could have come in handy sometime. And there was that one time he used Fireball Jutsu and ran it across multiple wires. He may be experienced, he sure as hell isn't learning anything.

Unlike Naruto, who actually strategies and uses feints and makes himself look predictable, Sasuke just runs in, Chidori's, Susanoo's and Amaterasu's the shit out of everything (which is also why he started going blind like a week after he got his Mangekyo). Kaguya would have killed him. Easily.
