Genjutsu suggestion

[Joker1480]

From what I've seen in Naruto games/Manga, Genjutsu is a lazy man's game. From what I've read in questions it seems things like handseals and grinding won't be looked into, and the result being more intense gameplay. If you had some kind of button combination or something (not really creative for this kinda thing) that makes both the user and the target have to actually 'fight' even while in Genjutsu. This will cause the target to be preoccupied, and the user would be too. I don't see why it has to follow Naruto guidelines to the letter where you just use Genjutsu and tell your comrades to beat down the target, while the target struggles through it all. Genjutsu should be difficult, but at the same time people who want it as a main form of fighting can grow accustomed to. The user would have the advantage knowing the Genjutsu was going to hit and prepare for the mini-event while the target is caught off-guard, retaining the Genjutsu way.

We can always do a rock paper scissors kind of system with Genjutsu. One Genjutsu defeats another but that genjutsu is defeated by another genjutsu and etc. When Sasuke and Itachi fought, the first portion of their fight was Genjutsu. This would make the Genjutsu tree a lot more active and more similar to Ninjutsu or Taijutsu, example being Fire vs Wind, Fire wins. Of course there will be more genjutsu than 3, so maybe we can find a total number of genjutsu that is, hopefully, 9 in total.

Memory is a bit fuzzy on Sasuke vs. Itachi full fight scenes except for crazy op lighting hell storm ending, but if you are getting at Genjutsu users being able to send a Gen-clone to attack using all your own moves, that would be interesting as a more advanced genjutsu. It could be a clone that everyone can see but can only be stopped through some form of genjutsu counter or clashing of two Gen-clones. There could be a delay from using the jutsu to the Gen-clone using it, and higher chakra amounts per use of jutsus. It could have lowered damage since it isn't real, all in your head, maybe?

 

Again, just ideas, spin these off of anything you can think of, but make sure to add balance. (I tried to for this)
