Earth benders in the show didnt' use their powers as well as they could. Why not do the quicksand thing to all enemies and trap them in the ground.

Though an evil airbender could just bend the air out of anyone's lungs.

But I'd probably still be an earth bender

Airbender for the flying. They're possibly the most powerful individually too. The Air Nomads were peaceful people just chilling and minding their own business, didn't even have any kind of formal army and still put up a good fight against the fire nation who had a huge professional army and still had to use what was basically a cheat code power-up with Sozin's Comet

Plus they get cool flying bison

Firebending must suck. Being surrounded by fire all the time. Sweating your arse off.

Earthbending is powerful but kinda boring.

Waterbending would be peaceful and airbending would be refreshing

I can’t believe I agreed with Bowl Jackson but I do. Air for the win

My top pick is Water Bending because I love the ocean. I would like to explore underneath the deep blue see without the use of a submarine.

Fire benders can shoot fricking lightning out of their fingers



Also you get your own goddamn dragon

Not exclusive to air. Plus you don’t have to wear a lame squirrel suit.

I'd probably go water with blood bending, otherwise air.

Waterbending. Good luck stopping me with bloodbending.

I do love how each element has a very rational argument for being the most powerful given your perspective. It’s a point Shymalan completely missed. He thought firebending was overpowered, so he nerfed them making them only manipulate fire and gave Sozin’s Comet the ability the animated characters had in day to day life. But the fact that they can create fire is the only thing that puts them on a level playing field. Waterbending would clearly be the most powerful were there not limits on it, but they have some good explanations for it. Like even if you were up against an evil Airbender who would collapse your lungs, an evil waterbender would burst your heart instantly in retaliation.

I hate how waterbenders in the show/movie NEVER use ground water to their advantage. Is there a reason this was never used?
