Sasuke Uchiha is an exceptional shinobi and boasts what often seems like an endless array of incredible talents. He's famously known for possessing the Sharingan, the dōjutsu kekkei genkai of the renowned Uchiha Clan. Thanks to his visual prowess, Sasuke has the ability to perform many of the strongest techniques that the entire Naruto franchise has ever seen.
Sasuke may excel in certain abilities outside of his Sharingan, but without it, he'd be considerably weaker and incapable of using the vast majority of his show-stopping techniques that were crucial in both aiding him to victory and defending him from harm against formidable enemies.
10 He Wouldn't Be Able To Predict His Opponent's Next Move, Making Him More Vulnerable To Attacks
The Sharingan is known for its proficiency in attack prediction, thus improving the ability to evade or counter incoming attacks. Sasuke is able to comprehend an opponent's next move before the enemy strikes, giving him the huge advantage of always being one step ahead of the game.
This ability proved useful when Sasuke faced Haku early on in the series as it allowed Sasuke to dodge many potentially fatal attacks once he was trapped in Haku's Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals.
9 He Wouldn't Be Able To Create Stronger Techniques By Copying Jutsu
Sasuke's winning move in the Chūnin Exams Preliminaries was based on Rock Lee's Front Lotus.
Their brief, though unpleasant encounter before the exams started allowed Sasuke to beat Yoroi Akadō by copying the first two steps of Lee's original technique then putting his own spin on it to create the Lion Combo.
8 He Wouldn't Be Able To See Chakra, Meaning His Ability To Strategize Would Weaken
Although the Sharingan isn't as competent as Byakugan when it comes to seeing chakra, Sasuke is still able to see someone's chakra flow to an extent, meaning he can determine its formation and if there are disruptions to it.
This means he can strategize and understand his opponents better during a battle.
7 He Wouldn't Be Able To Awaken The Mangekyō Sharingan, Which Gave Him Tremendous Strength
The Mangekyō Sharingan is an advanced form of the Sharingan and grants the user powerful abilities that vary in each eye, whilst also retaining their existing Sharingan abilities.
Sasuke's Mangekyō Sharingan was awakened as a result of the trauma he experienced from finding out the truth behind his older brother, Itachi Uchiha, after his death.
6 He Wouldn't Be Able To Use Susanoo, So His Defence Would Be Weaker
Susanoo is the strongest ability that a Sharingan user can possess once they have awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan in both eyes.
Known for its ultimate defense, Sasuke has avoided many potentially fatal blows and shielded himself alongside the rest of Team 7 from the effects of the Infinite Tsukuyomi thanks to this ability —and subsequently managed to save the world as a result.
5 He Wouldn't Be Able To Use The Highest Level Of Fire Release: Amaterasu
Another technique that Sasuke would be without if he didn't have his Sharingan is the Mangekyō Sharingan dōjutsu, Amaterasu. It is known for being the highest level of Fire Release, where a user will produce black flames through their visual abilities. These powerful flames will not extinguish until their target has been completely incinerated.
Sasuke would have likely died alongside Team Taka during their mission to take the Eight-Tails if he hadn't been able to use Amaterasu.
4 He Wouldn't Be Able To Aquire The Rinnegan, Which Made Him Strong Enough To Save The World
After overusing his Mangekyō Sharingan, Sasuke was left almost blind. To stop this, Obito implanted Itachi's eyes into Sasuke, and as a result, he awakened the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, meaning his ocular damage was fully restored and he could use his visual techniques without the worry of ruining his eyes again.
He was also able to obtain the Rinnegan when he was given half of the Sage of Six Paths power after telepathically being sent to Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki after Madara stabbed him. This was because he combined his newly given yin chakra with his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, thus resulting in the awakening of his Rinnegan.
3 He Wouldn't Be Able To Use Genjutsu & Gain Enough Strength To Control Every Tailed Beast
Sasuke used his Rinnegan Genjutsu to immobilize the Tailed Beasts so he could absorb their power in order to defeat Naruto and become the Hokage of Konoha, something he couldn't fathom doing if he was born without the Sharingan.
Luckily, his dangerous dream never came to fruition.
2 He Wouldn't Be Able To Use Space-Time Dōjutsu Which Allows Him To Travel To Different Dimensions
Space-Time dōjutsu is only made possible because he acquired the Rinnegan, which again he could only receive in the first place because he was born with the Sharingan.
This technique allows Sasuke to create a portal where he and a limited number of others can travel to different dimensions. Sasuke is able to travel to both Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's six dimensions, and Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki's dimension.
1 He Wouldn't Be Able To Use Chidori, Meaning He Couldn't Use The Majority Of His Attacks
Sasuke is only able to perform his signature Chidori moves because of his Sharingan. Although Hatake Kakashi originally created the technique, Sasuke has crafted a multitude of powerful Chidori abilities, including Chidori Katana, Chidori Stream, and Kagutsuchi Chidori.
Sasuke was taught Chidori by Kakashi as they trained for the final Chūnin Exam battles in which he debuted for the first time against his anticipated rival, Gaara.
