As for jutsu vs. jutsu, Kirin wins at long range, Rasenshuriken wins at close range ( assuming naruto is good enough to make it connect )
Kirin can't be countered, it can be blocked there is a difference. Its an unavoidable technique afterall and are you trying to insinuate that naruto's rasengan wouldn't be stopped by something like Susanoo's shield, not to mention that with Naruto's rasengan you can just get the hell out of the way. What does this long range short range thing have to do with anything if its rasenshuriken against kirin, the two techniques against each other. Besides its been well established in Naruto that long range trumps short range.
