A's eyes were following Minato, and he never took another step after his first max speed launch Yeah, everyone agreed that he was mid-step, except yo...wait a minute...

his leg was just back because that is how he launched and only the second time when he was going slower in prep for his own counter attack did he actually use his feet to run forward No. You previously said Ay was "floating". Ay's right foot is on the ground though, so I'm less inclined to believe your interpretation, especially now. Moving goal-posts and all. The second time Ay was going slower? Based on what? And Ay always uses his feet to run forward, it's not that significant.

, or do I need to put red circles on screenshots for you to get it?? Ay running is a lot simpler than you make it out to be though. There's no "floating" or "launching" involved. I looked through chapters 542 and 543, and there are 3 pages, all 3 pages where we see Ay's feet on the ground. So it's a stretch to make such wild assumptions.

A was also not sweating nor worried when Minato grabbed the Kunai behind him. Don't know how you can guess that, seeing as we can only see half of Ay's face on that panel.

His actions thanking Bee for intervening and asking if Bee was ok, beg to differ.

A said he and Minato exchanged blows and that "a finer shinobi never lived" he wasn't referring to Minato's being the "strongest that ever lived"

Well, the context of Ay's statement was "exchanging blows with Minato" as you pointed out and that means combat. So yeah, he was referring to combat ability with Minato. Hashirama was speaking in context of a shinobi enduring for their village as per his conversation with Sasuke.

Minato can't actually beat A, you need to just stop already. I've discussed several ways he can actually.

@Baby

Ch542, pg 14, there's movement lines all around Minato though. Particularly on his arms, shoulders, head and legs.
