@Kirito.

Edo hashirama seemed to stalemate edo rinnegan madara. he got stabbed by 6paths rods but madara got restrained by wood dragons, so I call that an even fight. six paths chakra seemed to close the gap for madara.

I was also just saying that hashirama's sage mode is capable of reacting to Hirashin giri, so it should be able to react Ameno at the very least. meaning sasuke will have to do a bit more after he appears with his S/T/N to finish him.

Hashirama was most certainly a clone spammer. He probably doesn't spam a 1000 IC, but he uses at least 2-3. He didn't use it much against Madara because clones split his power and madara developed enough skill with the sharingan apparently to see through the ruse. So Hashi would outlast madara then clone feint him to finish him off once the sharingan deactivated.

Also, I'm pretty sure madara's genjutsu doesn't work on hashi. Hashi is literally a sea of chakra and has expert chakra control. Madara, while great at genjutsu, isn't an itachi or shisui at it from what I've seen, so his genjutsu probably doesn't create any meaningful opening on hashi, which is why he stopped using it over the years.
