He's fast but he hasn't shown the speed in my opinion to easily evade Tsunade plus she doesn't always have to hit her mark. She can use to area around her as backup. And she knows about the uchiha prowess so of course shed be smart to try and avoid being caught in genjutsu. Plus yes you're right but then again it all depends what type of genjutsu. For all we know she could be great at dispelling it or she can suck. They've never shown it. Things such as Tsukuyomi is different. And I swear everyone is like Itachi just use genjutsu battle done. Yes basically said out to be the best but it all depends if he's stopped or delayed of doing so. Plus most of his gen jitsu shown was things you'd know was genjutsu so its not like he showed a complex one that one won't figure out in time or can't break out. Naruto was an exception. We all knew he was butt in gen jitsu. Genius I requires good chakra control and should be smart with it. Naruto wasn't too bright and only had decent chakra control at best which is why he had to preform the rasengan with clones. Anyway I said he'd beat Tsunade but destroy is a bit much in my opinion.

I'm sorry, what? How are stats rigged? Itachi has a 5 in BOTH the speed stat (how fast he can move) AND the hand sign stat. And considering Itachi could keep up with both KCM Naruto and Killer B, I think he's shown he's more than fast enough to evade Tsunade with ease. And area-of-effect attacks aren't exactly accurate and hard to dodge; even Kabuto had no problem avoiding Tsunade's AOE attacks in Part 1. I'm not saying Tsunade isn't strong or anything, just that her style of combat just doesn't work on someone like Itachi. :)
