So FTG+Rasengan/Kunai Slash isn't going to work on an expert sensor like Nagato Shinra Tensei has a 5 second cooldown. which is like what, 4.9 seconds longer than what Minato needs to rasengan his ass? Minato can blitz in, Shinra Tensei, Blitz in again. He has Sage Mode which he can use to prevent Preta on-contact chakra absorbtion. We haven't even seen Minato's other jutsu (what with his arms being torn off and being unable to make handseals and all).

Being a Sensor has very little to do with defeating Hiraishin. He may be able to sense or see the attack coming, but if he can outblitz Obito's Kamui, he can most definitely outblitz nagato's....everything.

Hiraishin makes Summons obsolete (though he can himself summon giant toads without effort, so we'd likely be looking at a full Naruto-VS-Pain style Toad Escort.). he can outblitz the various birds, dogs, etc. If he marks Nagato, it's over. And he has the speed and capacity to do so. As i said, Nagato can delay this final move pretty long (what with summoning a bird and staying in the air and all)

Abilities like Chibaku Tensei can be out FTG'd. Abilities like Shinra Tensei especially. Asura Path does nothing. Human path is dangerous if contact is allowed, yet speed once more makes Minato nigh-impossible to catch. Animal Path is supportive but has no finishing move (that works on Minato). Preta can block various Ninjutsu but still requires the jutsu to be seen, or reacted to.
