aight so. did a little bit of research and immediately came to the conclusion that Toph is probably out first as much as I hate to say it. once Azula starts with the lightning shit, or Katara starts using airborne water attacks it’s really nothing she can do. https://twitter.com/prvdigy/status/1247217998819196929
her being a blind earthbender is for once an actual handicap in this fight because it’s not against other earthbenders. it’s been confirmed that Toph can “see” airborne masses of earth but that’s it, anything else she’s still fully blind to.
now this is where things start to go any possible way because Ty Lee is a true wild card. if she sits back and let’s Katara and Azula get into it she can easily get the drop on one of em and instantly remove them from the fight by negating their bending.
also if we learned anything from TLA or LoK it’s that even with knowing your opponent can block chi, one wrong move will still get your ass locked up. so, Ty Lee beating Azula or Katara 1v1 is a very real possibility even though I know nobody wants to hear that.
but let’s just assume they’re able to keep distance from her and eventually get her out the fight somehow. Azula and Katara. this is the hardest debate for me tbh. Katara is not a water bender who can just bloodbend at anytime. only way she gets an easy dub is with a full moon.
this isn’t going to be an easy fight for Azula either though. we’re assuming full sanity Azula not end of series Azula here. both have been shown to get the best of each other multiple times, and both have been shown to be capable of negating each other’s abilities zero struggle.
I want to say it’s a draw but after rewatching the last fight between them... yeah no Azula wins. only reason Katara won is because Azula lost her shit, and she just happened to stumble upon the literal perfect trap to defeat her. had Azula been sane she would’ve seen it coming.
had Azula kept calm in the series finale she probably could’ve just firebended her way out of the ice just like we saw Zuko do when Katara trapped him in ice back at the end of season 1. I figured Azula would win from the beginning I was just hoping it wouldn’t be easy.
that’s it. dub for Azula. definitely could have some other outcomes depending on the Ty Lee situation but if she goes out second Azula is always taking the win.
... why did I make this thread. it’s not like my locals actually give a shit about this kind of stuff.
