As you might remember did Minato have actually access to the Kyubi's chakra and that it enhances all kind of jutsus/techniques due to the viability and strength of the chakra. His skill with FTG was never stated to be inferior, yet was it stated that Minato's capabilities were higher, considering that one had access to something that improves the caoabilities of jutsus and the other not makes the reason for this obvious, it's Kurama's chakra that made Minato's FTG better and not the difference of their actual skill. Tobirama could have gotten Kurama chakra to enhance his abilities but considering he didnt do so highly implies that he lacks the skill to FTG so many people and it wasnt a stat/chakra issue.

Being a trickster isnt going to take away his movement or combat speed, so this is one of the most moot points ever. Of all time." Yet is the focus of Tobirama's fighting style not outspeeding his foes like Minato (as we saw him/Minato do against Ay, Obito and etc.), but to deceive his opponents and let them think that they have the control of the fight as Madara stated it in Chapter 661. He was the fastest ninja of his time, but his focus lied not on it, but on his wit and that is why he is mainly a Trickster and not a Speedster, since he utilises his speed mainly in conjunction with his deception, as he for example did against Izuna. Checking 661, the conversation he had with Madara is not reflective of Trickster fighting style. Their confrontation was more examplery of a Battle Pragmatist and the way Madara described Tobirama painted him as more opportunistic, not so much decietful. Tobirama attacked people who thought they won. He waites until Madara thought he won and let his guard down, then went for the quick and easy blindside kill, that is not how a trickster operates.
