Edo Tensei kind of destroys the spirit of "orochimaru vs Jiraiya" as it would be "whoever Orochimaru summons" versus jiraiya.

Still, it seems that Orochimaru's surpassed the other Sannin now that his body replacement jutsu is perfected and now that he's had time to absorb the information uncovered by Obito, Madara and Black and White Zetsu. It still part of his ability, even kabuto stated this at one point. Removing his ability to use edo tensei would make this match more balanced. We still don't know how strong he(it?) is now.
