I've already explained how it's overrated. It's being overrated here because there are apparently some who believe it alone can counter over half of the Rinnegan's arsenal.

Nagato absolutely dwarfs Minato in the versatility and sheer power of their techniques, as well as the amount of chakra and stamina they both have. If humoring the possibility that Minato’s chakra is naturally as resilient, that still wouldn’t be the case given the Rinnegan’s ability to greatly enhance the users chakra. Nagato was able to maneuver behind Bee coming close to taking him off guard while he was still fast flying through the air from the force of a Shinra Tensei that was strong enough the pull the over 20 feet tall trees from the ground, and still managed to then dodge Bee's attack and counter his Lariat while he was in HCM form, and this was while Nagato was a crippled edo being controlled by an inexperienced user of both Nagato's body and his Rinnegan. That's absolutely ridiculous.

" The kurama avatar's roar alone could give nagato's weaker shinra tensei a run for their money." Stuff like this is only further advertising that you people have no clue what you're talking about. Nagato's basic, non focused shinra Tensei while preforming through a path of pain after fighting off Naruto and the Konoha village completely shit on all 3 of Naruto’s gigantic toads from Mount Myoboku, breaking bones and rendering them ineffective for the remainder of the fight. A CST from an Alive Healthy Nagato blows Minato and his overrated arsenal out of the water. Minato can be close or far, using FTG to port wherever, Nagato will know and he'll be ready. His sensing with his reflexes were so great that in the middle of battle he immediately reacted to Itachi activating his mangekyou by noticing mere pressure in the eye and announced it to Bee/Naruto before any technique had finished, and I’m sure we are all aware of the ciricle jerk regarding Itachi’s speed. If Minato is dumb enough to try and get close to Nagato to land a tag on him, and Ningendo doesn't kill him instantly, Nagato will blow him away as well as the surrounding area. All chakra based attacks are useless here. CQC is going to be a joke for Nagato here. An instantaneous force capable of flattening a village isn't going to leave such little effect on an opponent when engaged in combat that they'll be capable of porting to another location unscathed anytime it happens. Minato has virtually no experience using the Kyuubi or SM, and I haven’t even brought up the Gedo Mazo, and yet some feel it's appropriate to argue that all Minato needs to do is tag Nagato before then blowing him up with a BD. You nincompoops are hilarious.

It still is giving me an ERROR if I try to post the rest of my reply, so oh well. I've made my point, and if you still don't agree than writing anymore won't change any minds.

It is clear to me that Kishi had Nagato above Minato, especially base Minato.
