Blood bending makes sense. It makes less sense that more water benders didn’t get in on that.

The other water benders didn’t get into it because the bender who invented it was the last southwen water tribe bender prior to Katara alive and in prison when she invented it. Why past water benders hadn’t thought of it, probably the same reason Toph is the only metal bender, they never thought about bending the water in blood before. It is also strongly hinted that blood bending is evil.[/quote]

Its hinted that its evil, plus with the exception of the avatar they could only do it on the full moon (I believe that Katara was the only exception to the full moon - fix that if I am wrong).

Outside of Ang, in the end the 2 strongest are Katara (she can bend blood wtf) an Toph. Toph is by far the strongest Earth Bender the only one that could give her a challenge was King Yumi because of his 100 years of training. But come on she invented Metal bending

DAMN I wish I could erase the whole series and watch it over fresh.

OH and in case anyone was wondering. I still have a tennis ball in a large tube sock that I keep in the car just in case some day I run into M.Knight Shamalamafreakinmoviekiller.[/quote]
No I think Iroh was second strongest, then the fire king, maybe non crazy Azula next, then toph/boomy, zuko and finally katara.

Hey, it’s early I got time before I have to go to the range. I’m down for a Avatar Battle.

Now remember the rules this is at the End of the series. And we agree Ang is strongest.

FIGHT:
Katara - Water bender, she NOW can control anything with a water base to it. She would be able to take any and all attackers and use them like puppets. So no matter how strong the firelord or Iroh is she would have control over them.

Toph: Earth bender, who has discovered that she can also control metal. She could destroy whole towns with that power. I think however the only one that would be able to challenge her would be King Yumi with his 100 years of training he may catch on fast.

Uncle Iroh- Firebender the only reason he didn’t take on his brother an defeat him was political remember his speech to the group that an outsider needed to be the one to defeat him or it would come across as infighting instead of an uprising of the other nations. Still even though he was most likely he strongest Fire bender he still needed the comet to do all the stuff they showed him doing on the last episode.

Zucko- Fire Bender remember he had his sister outclassed in there finally fight he lost because Azula tried to kill Katara and he jumped infront of the attack.
He may not be stronger than the Top 3 of the White Lotus Clan.

Prove me Wrong

Katara would depend on whether or not the full moon is out for blood bending (again, correct me if I am wrong), plus it seems blood bending takes quite a bit more concentration and time to work it, time that Fire Lord Ozai, Iroh, and Zuko would NOT give her

47

Okay how bout we just assume everyone is at max power for a fight…

Full moon out for Katara
Commet for Fire benders
Earthquake for Earth Benders
Ang in Avatar mode
Momo and Appa having not been fed

Excluding Ang, I say Iroh wins. The blood bending wasn’t a quick type thing it appeared and she had to fight the other person for control. Iroh wins out of sheer speed and skill to kill her before it happens.

Earthquakes help earth benders? Was that in the show? It sounds logical but I never saw that episode.

It wasn’t. I’m just adding it for logical purposes. I mean if fire benders get a fricken commet that only comes once every 100 years, earth quakes happen much more often than that…

Ya makes sense.

You guys forget that Kitara can also DRAW water out of things,SPOILERS Ahead!!!

she drained water out of all those flowers when she fought the blood bending witch. So I am sure if she wanted to she could drain people dry. Also she used Blood Bending pretty easily on that ship when she was looking for the dude that killed her mom.

END SPOILERS

So in a battle royal, I think Ang trumps all because of his versatility. With Kitara coming in second.

Also don’t be fooled Zuko is not that powerful when you really think about it.

^THIS

Zucko had skills and He in the end proved to be a match for his sister. BUT he was not stronger than his Uncle.

I can not believe how many of these guys are sleeping on how strong the Crazy Earth King was. Goofy Yumi was a bit odd but he cleared out a whole army on his own. Plus the man was over 100 years old. I think he would have been a match for Zucko’s uncle.

54

I’d like to see battle royale of Ang (with no moral issues of killing people) vs White Lotus clan, Zuko, Kitara, Toph, Iroh, Fire Lord Uzo, Zuko’s sister (forget her name).

End of series ANG or AVATAR STATE ANG would wipe them all out. Now outside of that.

The WHITE LOTUS would destroy the rest. Hell I would put them up against the entire Fire Nation if they were all at there best.

Oh and Zuko’s sis is Azula

x2. I thought once he reached and met the ancient dragons(forgot what the place was called) that he would gain more power. He really didnt. He was just able to control his power without anger.

She was always nuts. But yes she had started to flip but she was smart enough to use Katara as a tool to win. With his ability to redirect lightning Zucko was her match. But they both were weaker than the Uncle.

OK-- just finished the series tonight.

First- Wow. Great series. You have to understand, we don’t really have a TV hooked up to cable, dish, etc. Just got Netflix thru Wii, so now have a lot to catch up with, so this series was high on my list.

Fully realized Avatar. No match. I guess that’s the point of the Avatar.

Uncle Iroh - Great character.

Katara- Totally under utilizing blood bending. Man, a little more blood bending could have nipped a lot of shit right in the bud.

The Avatar lineage is a genius literary concept. Leaves room for literally hundreds of Avatar tales.
