Honestly neither, you can just run root of warrior and your 3 sword ninjas are immune to debuffs, then run Iruka or Jugo instead of Gakido/Karin to shield and boost damage of others, you already have one of 2 summons needed for that build, gold Cat, gold Snek also works.

I have not got a Iruka & Gold Sneak and Gold Cat does not work

both are good, i would play 1st one tho, that gakido is annoying af

3 Talents with Fukurokumaru.

This was probably the best lightning team pre kage treasure, everyone run it, it works even better with Iruka instead of Jugo once you get him.

lol Jugo can't use his chase attack with this lineup...

You could just go with Gakido - Sasuke - GNW Kiba, with shark, lai giri, clone, ANBU assault, and any mystery and standard you want.

lol,you never play LM,Jugo work with serpent,change chase to repluse to knockdonw

Of course 1st pict is better. U can build root team n gakido can protect himself by his skill to immune debuff.
I prefer this line up
