Bending Tier List

Airbending > Waterbending > Earthbending >>>>> Firebending.

Airbender s can fly and have super agility. Waterbenders have super versatility. Earthbenders can build their own house. Firebenders suck.

It is important to draw wisdom from different places. If you take it from only one place it become rigid and stale.

Understanding others, the other elements, the other nations, will help you become whole.

Yea I just bought that, thought there were more but it seems like the next issue comes out in june :/

according to amazon there are others but the Promise seems to be the really important one right now.

 

[KingK]

And if they weren't airbenders/waterbenders could they still pass on a pasive airbending gene.

Yes, I believe that could be possible.

could be that the others take after sokka, and are morons.

Sokka is the best.

The Promise is the only one with sequel material. It's basically Book 4.

SO

MUCH

RAGE

 

[Infinite Justice]

Firebending is as useful as the other elements outside of battle. Unless you want to be a living torch/battery.

i would like to firebend my tea anywhere (Iroh was such a boss)

Pretty much.

Out of combat, the only ones worth any value are air and earth.

However the thing about lightning is the speed. It should in theory be the fastest bending ability.

What was he doing firebending his tea? For such a wise old man that was a pretty stupid move.

It was pretty crazy given their current status and location but i will agree with Billy here (plus i guess it shows anyone could have a Brain fart in this series). Plus we also got a great reaction from Zuko about it as well.

 

[WrenchNinja]

Jet died.

Are you sure? It wasnt really clear.


Anyway, loving the show. Tenzins kids are adorable, I hope they get a day in the limelight episode. Milo is like Aang on caffeine.

 

[jasonng]

His lack of presence in The Promise pretty much confirms it in my opinion.

You guys need to brush up on your quotes.

 

[WrenchNinja]

I was quoting Sokka.

GOAT. So hype.

i realized the your response was similar to what Zuko said but since it wasn't verbatim i thought you were asking it yourself

oh well

 

[Wiseblade]

Greatest of all time.

It was almost exactly verbatim!

 

[Aaronology]

It'd be kind of weird if at least one of those kids isn't a waterbender or at least a non-bender. Unless Katara has super shitty genes or something.

Air Nomads don't have non-bender children, though. I'm not sure how that works when the blood gets diluted but it's not too surprising that Aang didn't have any other/non-bending children.

 

[Emitan]

my sister is so dumb

she didn't even know they were making a new avatar show until i told her tonight

 

[Infinite Justice]

almost wasn't enough!!

[CornBurrito]

So like, genetically, could air benders make a come back from Aang's lineage?

Yes, but the creators said the air nomads as a culture were irreversibly destroyed.

Out of combat, the only ones worth any value are air and earth.

However the thing about lightning is the speed. It should in theory be the fastest bending ability.

You kidding me? Waterbending could purify seawater, and drinking water is a valuable resource.

Firbending can be used for metallurgy. Though now they have metalbending so...

edit:

Also considering how often balance is stressed in the Avatar world, I wouldn't be shocked if their were in-universe restrictions on airbending so that it wasn't clearly superior. I'm guessing being a pacifist is pretty much necessary for everyone but the Avatar to learn air.

 

[Cwarrior]

excellent in everyway, looked superb in hd

minor complaint

Spoiler

Couldn’t they save that shitty romance for season 3, it’s only opening episode and there already shoehorning that romance crap in it.
It’s already set in stone shipping of zuko 2 and kora (maybe there trying please the zoko and kitara fans after all the trolling, form the get go)

I just didn't like the love at first meeting thing. with kora all on his nuts at first sight and the episode ending with both looking at each others location like some star crossed lovers romeo and juliet shit

tiny complaint to two amazing episode, but knowing avatar the original had the anng and kitara romance which was handled really and wasn't overdone or got in the way of anything

Spoiler

It wasn't love at first sight. Korra might not even be into him. Her looking at the arena at the end seems more like a fascination with the pro-bending world.

Also there's gonna be romance in this series and you gotta deal with it.

 

[Cwarrior]

I liked the way the last air bender handled the romance, this ehhh don’t know I know for one thing the pair is already set in stone.

Spoiler

it's zuko 2

 

[Emitan]

Didn't notice this my first time. Crazy BURN Korra:

Will bookmark this for when Korra ends up with Bolin.

 

[Qwomo]

I bet Bolin's first name is Anne.

The least you could do is get the names right.

If they didn't bother in the movie, why should he in a forum post?

yep

Spoiler

it's clear she looking at the arena thinking about the pro-bending world tournament, Zuko 2 i don't know, there maybe some other unkown reason where going to find it out later , but i still say think the pairing is set

 

[Arment]

Finally got around to watching episode 2.

I thought

Spoiler

Bolin

was a little flat on the comedy side if that was their intent. Otherwise this is looking to be just as good if not better than the first series.

 

[CornBurrito]

I don't like Jughead or Edward.

FUCK YOU!

 

[shadyspace]

This non-bender girl better be awesome or Gaang Ver. 2 is going to be a total wash.
