Actually Water Bending Skills of Kya is really commendable, she trained to be a Healer and there's no war during her time growing up and still she was able to fight that way. The Twins kombat with Ming Hua should have been more a good fight, animated did them dirty.
@@CcokeS Katara didn't learn it, Hama showed her but Katara never actually managed to do it. Hama remains the only water bender we have ever seen to draw water from the moisture in the air.
Kya should be ranked higher, in the series she was not taught combat waterbending only healing but she is still extremely good, if Katara trained her well on dueling she could be very excellent.
Kya faught agaisnt Zaheer in a 1v1 and almost beat him, forcing him to retreat, and then held her own against Ming Hua (was outclass, obviously Ming Hua is a beast). Kya was likely just as good as Katara, she just didn't get the same amount of screen time that Katara did.
@@seawolfhikes Yeah Kya vs Ming Hua was pretty much a 1v1 as bumi was running from Ghazan, P'li was chasing the people escaping and Zaheer was dealing with Tenzin. So Ming Hua did outclass Kya, but still, being out classed by the very best of the best yet still holding her own and putting up a good fight is a huge testement to just how good Kya really was.
Tarlock, Amon and Yakkone are top 3 not counting Yue. I'd put Unalaq between Pakku and Ming Hua. He's good but not above Amon's family or Katara. Unless you meant Unavatuu
Number 1 was clearly an honorary mention... That said, i think this list is actual about water benders and the amount the threat the seemed to pose... With the flawlessness of toph at her prime, one can assume that katara, if she were willing to fight, would take out a lot of all these characters, even Amon, one by one or perhaps multiple at a time. The fight properly needs a clear head, one thing most if these characters doesn't have and katara has in abundance 😊😊
Unlikely. Katara would be folded in half at that age... The little bit Toph did killed her back; and if you pay attention to her actions she barely moves herself, but rather makes the swampmud move her around. Any place else she would've fared a lot worse which is likely one of the reasons why she stays in the swamp.
@@Imaginethis_stop being delusional now💀 Amons only mastered bloodbending better than Katara. But Katara has already been able to resist bloodbending from a bloodbending creator in a very first exposure 😂 KATARA's also the most powerful and versatile waterbending master Amon doesn't stand a chance
You have one of the best analysis, ranking power levels without fail!!! Having watch few videos, I must say you earned a subscriber! P.S: Standing Ovation for Princess Yue, Sokka’s first girlfriend😅 (Much respect)
Brooo we’re talking abt a dark avatar here unalaq would most likely one tap her and it’s not funny unalaq one tapped mako and bolin at the same time mako being someone even Amon recognizes
@@MindBursterzexactly, that's the issue here, katara holds back, if she was an antagonist, and she unleashed full force, she would be unmatched, but she's filled with so much restraints
All these years watching Korra highlight I never knew Ming-hua don’t have arms lol. I always think this is just her fighting style to cover her arms in water. 🤯
Honestly she deserves a higher spot, maybe even above katara. She was the only physic water bender who didn’t need blood bending to take down an opponent, and that’s WITHOUT ARMS. Ming hua was an interesting villain.
hama should have been alot higher on the list because as you put toph as no. 1 for creating metal bending hama created blood bending as an idea no one else thought of and not only that pulling water from any source. no other on the list was so creative. at least 3 or 2 if not first place
Yall forget that blood bending is not that op against other waterbenders. If the water bender is stronger than the bloodbender's power it has no effect. (katara being able to free herself from hama's blood bending, Amon freeing himself from tarloq's blood bending AND aang activating the avatar state to over power yakone's blood bending). So again just bc a character can blood bend does not mean they're unbeatable
@yann123 No, I disagree. Bloodbending is easily the most overpowered skill in the Avatar Universe. Did you see what Yakone did to everyone in the council? He performed Psychic Blood Bending on everyone, even with his hands tied. That room included some of the most powerful benders, such as a fully grown Toph Beifong, who is the most powerful earth bender in the scene, and Avatar Aang. Both were powerless against Yakone’s bloodbending capability. Without the Avatar’s plot armor, it’s pretty hard to defeat blood bending. You’ll have to deal with it.
Not to mention when katara did that octopus, tentacle 🐙 like, stance/ move. She also adapted earth bending into her water bending. Katara was unmatched.
Everyone above her in ranking were far more skilled and powerful. Most people who say katara is unmatched hasn’t even laid eyes on lok. Ming hua could do the tentacle move WITHOUT ARMS. Katara is incredibly powerful and was definitely unmatched for her time, but she was surpassed.
Surpassed only by Amon, because of his bloodbending, but not by Ming Hua and Unalaq! Ming Hua lost to Mako with a large amount of water and Kya fought very well against her being a healer@@Yeibaldreamss
@@joaog_s2 Ming hua lost because she was struck by a bolt of lightning, which water both conducts and strengthens. Aang “died” the same way. When a lightning bender wants to kill you, it’s pretty much game over. Though It’s tough to say who’d win an actual fight, Ming hua’s greater skills with psychic bending and all undoubtedly surpass Katara.
@@Yeibaldreamss No, Aang didn't die because he conducted the lightning, but because he was hit alone, he wasn't in full control of the avatar state, Katara easily surpasses Ming Hua, she knows bloodbending
One thing that Katara doesn't know, besides Kya fighting super well against her being a healer, Katara's skills are exceptional, and if you doubt it, Katara uses the tentacle technique even better than her.
It wouldn't be fair to compare Aquaman to other characters in this universe. Aquaman is physically on par with the likes of Wonder Woman and despite being weaker has gone toe to toe with Superman and won. Aquaman is also superior to a few literal Gods and even has the Trident of Poseidon, so he has a weapon that was literally blessed and used by the God of the sea and water in general. Aquaman would not only be the most powerful water bender surpassing someone like Katara 1000x over, but he'd also be the strongest character easily obliterating even the avatar state with ease. The avatar at their strongest is only Island level while Aquaman is easily planetary+.
My goodness! Watching this list makes me want to watch the entire Avatar series. I have yet to see it. Though I’m kind of familiar with some characters I’m no where proficient in the hows and knows dealing with benders.
I love how you gave everyone their props and u were actually objective in ur outlook, personally Katara will always be the strongest in my eyes. (she healed the crimple🤭), I also loved how even the least rank felt represented and their strengths were highlighted
Number 1 and 2 are a Spirit and an Avatar, no one puts her in the number one above them, for the normal benders though she is number 1 and should be number 3 on this list, it is not glazing to recognize her abilities and status as the best and strongest normal waterbender we have seen in both shows.
@@j.43I get what you're saying but Amon's power is ridiculous. Probably bad writing, as is usual for Korra, but nobody, not even Katarra, came close to Amon's sheer mastery of the art, including the best display of blood bending we saw in the entire cannon. He could destroy your chi pathways to emulate an aspect of energy bending. Nobody else came close. That's the same level of bending innovation as Toph inventing metal bending.
I love the video BuT Sir put some life and emotions into it. The way you are talking make it sounds like a boring documentary. That aside I love the clips you used for each person on this list. Now am a continue watching to see who is at number 1.
I think Amon should take the number 1. You are right about everything you said about Unalaq but It's not fair count his feats as the dark avatar and if you are going to count this version of him you should also include in the list everyone who had access to Avatar State... That being said Amon > Unalaq but Unavaatu > Amon..... Amon is by far the greatest water bender prodigy of both series....
@@mohazytg3270 but Amon didn't even move to bend. He was hiding he was a bender so we didn't see much of his actual fighting skills. He is definitely the most powerful one.
@@nikai0713 there is no prove he is a better water bender than unalaq , watch season 2 of korra again you will see how good Unalaq was using water bending
Im actually so mad that we couldnt see more of kid aang and kid katara because i would love to see how aang handles being in love and katara too, also i just love good love stories
people always underestimate kya simply because she lost to zaheer and minghua even though she was 55 years old during the fight, was rusty cause she spent most of her life traveling the world, etc... kya could probably be higher on the list in her prime
Yet people also always say Katara is better than Hama even though Hama was ancient, lived in the Fire Nation and couldn't practice her bending as a result or risk getting caught and quite frankly didn't fight to win, but to make Katara bloodbend.
@@SimplymeSVEN18 at first she fought to teach katara how to blood bend but then she later changed her mind when katara was against it hence why she was surprised when katara started blood bending
@@stickypinktip She never changed her mind in that. She literally taunts her into bloodbending "don't let them hurt eachother". It's clear she wanted Katara to bloodbend there. Though she likely was surprised it worked right away. That or she expected Katara to bloodbend Aang and Sokka instead of her. But it suited her goals either way so she wasn't going to protest. Again, evidenced when she goes laughing to prison after congratulating Katara.
@@SimplymeSVEN18 at some point she literally gives up on trying to teach katara mid fight and actually starts to fight her did we watch the same show ?!
Ming-Hua is just on another level IMO, Hama is psycho, Katara is so well rounded and versatile (can heal and bloodbend), and Kya uses water as if she was using air.... but Amon is truly in my opinion the best, he technically cannot be defeated unless it's by an avatar.
Im glad to see someone finally give unalaq credit as the best base combat waterbender. As a villian he is by far the worst and that makes many people write him off, but his skills as a waterbender cannot be overlooked.
For me selecting Katara in 4th place is a crime, she literally mastered waterbending + the 2 sub bending elements in less than a YEAR, Amon and Unalaq are grown adults, imagine what Katara could be at her 20s/30s, but ofc she can't stay at the 1st place, Yue is literally the moon and can create giant waves without even an effort, more more than Katara, and by the way she can bend while being a spirit is just insane. Katara should've been at the 2nd place for me.
These commenters are so deluded. Katara is extremely powerful, yes, and a world class water bender and healer, but she is NOT a blood bending master. She showed prodigy potential, but she never mastered this art. By choice. Amon literally used blood bending to take away peoples ability to bend the elements, and not even Katara was able to heal that or reverse the effects. Katara also never learned spirit bending. Her being your favorite character does not make her the most powerful. She was appropriately ranked. Great video 👍
In The Legend Of Korra, Katara was regarded as the best water bender. We only saw Katara as a young teenager who had just been a master for about a year. I would imagine she was way stronger in her prime. I think she should hold the number one spot.
@miraclenweke4784 no bro I didn't watch the animated one🤦🏽😂 I had CN growing up at home not nickelodeon but I've just recently finished the animation what a great series liked it way more than the live action
I never thought about Ming Hua was simultaneously doing like 5 kinds of water bending whenever we saw her fight. I would have tied her with Amon. I know blood bending is the pinnacle technique in water bending. But her ability to do all of that while having no arms is incredible.
Katara in her prime is the most powerful waterbender. She is the best healer in the world, learnt blood bending in minutes and overpowered the creator of blood bending… Her big scale waterbending feats are comparable to avatar state korra’s feats… And she started from absolute zero. She is absolutely the most talented and skilled waterbender of all time. Of course she didn’t develop blood bending due to moral reasons, but I believe if she had, she could’ve been a bloodbender at the level of Amon and Yakone. Actually, blood bending won’t work on a stronger waterbender, that’s why the avatar state negates blood bending. So I think not even Amon Yakone or Tarrlok could blood bend katara because she is just the better waterbender
this is simply not realistic. The only time katara blood bent was when there was a full moon. Amon could easily take her out and that’s okay. She was the best water bender of her time but Amon easily beats her unfortunately
I don't think Katara stood the chance against Amon. she would just lose her bending like the rest. Amon was way too strong so that could resist another bloodbender and recover within minutes after being struck by lightning while Aang was healing for weeks after Azula's attack. Amon is the strongest waterbender in my book.
Katara was a more powerful bender than Hama. Of course she didn't develop blood bending not due to moral reasons but because she didn't know that could be done and nobody else did because Hama was the first to develop it. And it's a good thing that Katara lobbied against blood bending because when blood bending is used on someone it causes psychological effects on a person. And Avatar Ang and Avatar Korra never learned and used blood bending
Even I love katara so much but yes this is so realistic rank.. And im suprise with the number 1 rank and again yue deserves that award and of course our standing applause for her... Love from Indonesia..
It shouldn't be nothing difficult. There is H2O in the air. It's not like she needed to create a chemical reaction to get it. The amount of water you can get is low. From the air you can get 30g from 1m³ in best conditions. And the main reason why nobody else is using it is probably because there is no f**king water in air on south and north pole as it's below 0
If Unalaq is ranked above Amon then so should Katara come she's a true prodigy, if we're basing ourselves off bending in general Amon ranks above all, if we're basing ourselves off simply waterbending feats then I think Katara had more than Unalaq.
That fight between Kya and Zaheer had me gagged bc like the level of detail within the fight alone. The little water ring that she shoots ice out of, actually diminished. Obvs like it was an unfair battle but sis did her thing!
Katara's waterbendeing style is more unique than you might think. Her basics are self taught which already makes it unique, was taught northern style and mastered it. I don't think she mastered or even got close to mastereing southern style since she spend not even a week with Hama. Her bloodbending is basic, but being one of only two bloodbenders at the time already makes you unique. What people seems to often forget is that while she learned northern style properly, she is still mostly self taught and spend more time among earthbenders. Her movement and technic is closer to that of an earthbender. Her dual with Hama is a great example. She blocks and strike most of the time rather than using her opponent's strengths against them, while Hama fights like a proper waterbender by redirecting Katara's attacks. This could explain why Tarlok's and Korra's style of waterbending is also aggressive compared to their relatives in the North. Seems like the South Pole was affected a lot by this.
How I wish Katara was power hungry so we would've seen how she beats these other waterbenders in the ranking to a pulp. I want to see her bloodbend while in rage. 😂
Katara is restricted in use of the bloodbending that it can only be used during a full moon and it effects the mental state so she doesn't use it often. The father and the two brothers were known to use it without a moon. Those three also did not hesitate to lose their minds over the bloodlust of being killers. Not only that Amon found out a way to take away bending using his bloodbending ability.
You have to realize everything we saw katara do was with less than a YEAR of training…. Within a year she became the strongest water bender a live and she was only 14….. all of these other water benders are full adults. It would be safe to assume that katara is stronger than them

Kya faught agaisnt Zaheer in a 1v1 and almost beat him, forcing him to retreat, and then held her own against Ming Hua (was outclass, obviously Ming Hua is a beast). Kya was likely just as good as Katara, she just didn't get the same amount of screen time that Katara did.
@@juliankanzuki2013 Would she have been outclassed by Ming Hua 1v1? She was fighting her AND the others.
@@seawolfhikes Yeah Kya vs Ming Hua was pretty much a 1v1 as bumi was running from Ghazan, P'li was chasing the people escaping and Zaheer was dealing with Tenzin. So Ming Hua did outclass Kya, but still, being out classed by the very best of the best yet still holding her own and putting up a good fight is a huge testement to just how good Kya really was.
Tarlock, Amon and Yakkone are top 3 not counting Yue. I'd put Unalaq between Pakku and Ming Hua. He's good but not above Amon's family or Katara. Unless you meant Unavatuu
Number 1 was clearly an honorary mention...
That said, i think this list is actual about water benders and the amount the threat the seemed to pose... With the flawlessness of toph at her prime, one can assume that katara, if she were willing to fight, would take out a lot of all these characters, even Amon, one by one or perhaps multiple at a time.
The fight properly needs a clear head, one thing most if these characters doesn't have and katara has in abundance 😊😊
Thank you for seeing this video that way, something others are clearly missing.
Unlikely. Katara would be folded in half at that age... The little bit Toph did killed her back; and if you pay attention to her actions she barely moves herself, but rather makes the swampmud move her around. Any place else she would've fared a lot worse which is likely one of the reasons why she stays in the swamp.
Amon 😂😂. The only category Katara beats Amon is in healing.
Combat, Bloodbending and Waterbending, Amon tops everyday.
@@Imaginethis_he has no great waterbending feats compared to katara, other than blood bending.
@@Imaginethis_stop being delusional now💀
Amons only mastered bloodbending better than Katara. But Katara has already been able to resist bloodbending from a bloodbending creator in a very first exposure 😂
KATARA's also the most powerful and versatile waterbending master
Amon doesn't stand a chance
That number 1 was amazing . That’s how u make a top tier list
Thanks a lot ❤️
You have one of the best analysis, ranking power levels without fail!!!
Having watch few videos, I must say you earned a subscriber!
P.S: Standing Ovation for Princess Yue, Sokka’s first girlfriend😅
(Much respect)
Wow, thanks! Welcome onboard 😊
If katara was evil I don’t think anyone can compete with her
She will be too OP
If she was, i promise you i would have put her at #1. But she holds back a lot.
Brooo we’re talking abt a dark avatar here unalaq would most likely one tap her and it’s not funny unalaq one tapped mako and bolin at the same time mako being someone even Amon recognizes
@@Aso_officialwell because he fused with Vaatu, Unalaq without Vaatu then it would be a fair fight
@@MindBursterzexactly, that's the issue here, katara holds back, if she was an antagonist, and she unleashed full force, she would be unmatched, but she's filled with so much restraints
She really holds back, otherwise no one on that list would have matched her water bending prowess
Nah the editing is top tier bro
Thanks
All these years watching Korra highlight I never knew Ming-hua don’t have arms lol. I always think this is just her fighting style to cover her arms in water. 🤯
Honestly she deserves a higher spot, maybe even above katara. She was the only physic water bender who didn’t need blood bending to take down an opponent, and that’s WITHOUT ARMS. Ming hua was an interesting villain.
You forgot to include the swamp benders. I was patiently waiting for their rank.
13:37 nice and clean transition, good ol' memories.
hama should have been alot higher on the list because as you put toph as no. 1 for creating metal bending hama created blood bending as an idea no one else thought of and not only that pulling water from any source. no other on the list was so creative. at least 3 or 2 if not first place
hama in her prime would go crazy
Thank you for this
With no bloodbending, the only character that could defeat Unalaq is probably Ming Hua. With bloodbending, it's Amon.
Amon could still defeat Unalaq even without bloodbending. Amon is a powerful waterbender. We just don't see him waterbend that much.
Whos that
Yall forget that blood bending is not that op against other waterbenders. If the water bender is stronger than the bloodbender's power it has no effect. (katara being able to free herself from hama's blood bending, Amon freeing himself from tarloq's blood bending AND aang activating the avatar state to over power yakone's blood bending). So again just bc a character can blood bend does not mean they're unbeatable
@yann123 No, I disagree. Bloodbending is easily the most overpowered skill in the Avatar Universe. Did you see what Yakone did to everyone in the council? He performed Psychic Blood Bending on everyone, even with his hands tied. That room included some of the most powerful benders, such as a fully grown Toph Beifong, who is the most powerful earth bender in the scene, and Avatar Aang. Both were powerless against Yakone’s bloodbending capability.
Without the Avatar’s plot armor, it’s pretty hard to defeat blood bending. You’ll have to deal with it.
Even with the blood bending ,Amon would still lose to unalaq
Great video. May i inquire about the pronunciation of the characters names though?
One scary night, Katara met Hama....
My favorite is the thins they could kill any won who stands in there way
Not to mention when katara did that octopus, tentacle 🐙 like, stance/ move. She also adapted earth bending into her water bending. Katara was unmatched.
Everyone above her in ranking were far more skilled and powerful. Most people who say katara is unmatched hasn’t even laid eyes on lok. Ming hua could do the tentacle move WITHOUT ARMS. Katara is incredibly powerful and was definitely unmatched for her time, but she was surpassed.
Surpassed only by Amon, because of his bloodbending, but not by Ming Hua and Unalaq! Ming Hua lost to Mako with a large amount of water and Kya fought very well against her being a healer@@Yeibaldreamss
@@joaog_s2 Ming hua lost because she was struck by a bolt of lightning, which water both conducts and strengthens. Aang “died” the same way. When a lightning bender wants to kill you, it’s pretty much game over. Though It’s tough to say who’d win an actual fight, Ming hua’s greater skills with psychic bending and all undoubtedly surpass Katara.
@@Yeibaldreamss No, Aang didn't die because he conducted the lightning, but because he was hit alone, he wasn't in full control of the avatar state, Katara easily surpasses Ming Hua, she knows bloodbending
One thing that Katara doesn't know, besides Kya fighting super well against her being a healer, Katara's skills are exceptional, and if you doubt it, Katara uses the tentacle technique even better than her.
Katara over yakone when his fears trump hers? Ok dude wtf
Those waterbending combat speed are crazy. I wonder how fire nation beat them in the past
Exactly
They didn't
The south water tribe was practically a village and they still put up a fight against the fire NATION and the north was never taken.
They didn't besides the southern tribe which is a village
Excellently Ranked 👍🏻
Thanks! 😁
Badly ranked
Yakone is definitely the most dangerous water bender in the Avatar universe!
Nice video 👏🏼
Thank you 🙌
👏👏👏👏
I wanna see how Aquaman would do in this verse
I know right! Lol 😂
It wouldn't be fair to compare Aquaman to other characters in this universe. Aquaman is physically on par with the likes of Wonder Woman and despite being weaker has gone toe to toe with Superman and won. Aquaman is also superior to a few literal Gods and even has the Trident of Poseidon, so he has a weapon that was literally blessed and used by the God of the sea and water in general. Aquaman would not only be the most powerful water bender surpassing someone like Katara 1000x over, but he'd also be the strongest character easily obliterating even the avatar state with ease. The avatar at their strongest is only Island level while Aquaman is easily planetary+.
He would be cooked
@@miraclenweke4784 he would cook indeed
My goodness! Watching this list makes me want to watch the entire Avatar series. I have yet to see it. Though I’m kind of familiar with some characters I’m no where proficient in the hows and knows dealing with benders.
I love how you gave everyone their props and u were actually objective in ur outlook, personally Katara will always be the strongest in my eyes. (she healed the crimple🤭), I also loved how even the least rank felt represented and their strengths were highlighted
Thanks 😊
Actually in the anime, Yue said that she feels her bending stronger in a full moon. It is a hint that she is a water bender herself
Pretty sure Katara said that
Cartoon
No it's a hint that the spirit of the Moon is stronger in the full moon.
I want Team Avatar continuation when they group up animated
I believe the most powerful water bending ability would be the ability to take water out of not just the body of plants but animals as well
Was expecting you to glaze katara and put her at number one like everyone else. Absolutely loved how realistic and unbiased this ranking is
Thank you so much for your comment 🙂 Also check out my other videos 😉
Number 1 and 2 are a Spirit and an Avatar, no one puts her in the number one above them, for the normal benders though she is number 1 and should be number 3 on this list, it is not glazing to recognize her abilities and status as the best and strongest normal waterbender we have seen in both shows.
Oh the online community always ready to take away from Katara. Great video .
@@j.43I get what you're saying but Amon's power is ridiculous. Probably bad writing, as is usual for Korra, but nobody, not even Katarra, came close to Amon's sheer mastery of the art, including the best display of blood bending we saw in the entire cannon. He could destroy your chi pathways to emulate an aspect of energy bending. Nobody else came close. That's the same level of bending innovation as Toph inventing metal bending.
@@j.43Amon is #1
I love the video BuT Sir put some life and emotions into it. The way you are talking make it sounds like a boring documentary. That aside I love the clips you used for each person on this list. Now am a continue watching to see who is at number 1.
I think Amon should take the number 1. You are right about everything you said about Unalaq but It's not fair count his feats as the dark avatar and if you are going to count this version of him you should also include in the list everyone who had access to Avatar State... That being said Amon > Unalaq but Unavaatu > Amon..... Amon is by far the greatest water bender prodigy of both series....
Nah, for pure water bending moves unalaq takes it
@@mohazytg3270 but Amon didn't even move to bend. He was hiding he was a bender so we didn't see much of his actual fighting skills. He is definitely the most powerful one.
@@nikai0713 there is no prove he is a better water bender than unalaq , watch season 2 of korra again you will see how good Unalaq was using water bending
As a dark avatar blood bending would be useless against him so 🤷🏾♂️
How did you come to your conclusion when we rarely saw him water bend? Amon is the greatest blood bender but not water bender
Awesome
Perfect list and perfect rankings! Please do one on firebenders. 😁💯
I have that already, check my channel 😉
@@MindBursterz I just watched it 😁
I appreciate the shot out for yue lol
If Aang would’ve trained Kya like tanzin .. they would’ve been top notch siblings.. if they wasn’t monks too 😂
I think Katara
great and unbiased ranking, only one I think can be moved is unaloq, below katara btw
great titles
Thanks 😊
Nice one
Thanks 🔥
I would say that the bloodbenders who don't need the moon have the upper advantage especially in the day
Im actually so mad that we couldnt see more of kid aang and kid katara because i would love to see how aang handles being in love and katara too, also i just love good love stories
people always underestimate kya simply because she lost to zaheer and minghua even though she was 55 years old during the fight, was rusty cause she spent most of her life traveling the world, etc... kya could probably be higher on the list in her prime
Yet people also always say Katara is better than Hama even though Hama was ancient, lived in the Fire Nation and couldn't practice her bending as a result or risk getting caught and quite frankly didn't fight to win, but to make Katara bloodbend.
@@SimplymeSVEN18 at first she fought to teach katara how to blood bend but then she later changed her mind when katara was against it hence why she was surprised when katara started blood bending
@@stickypinktip She never changed her mind in that. She literally taunts her into bloodbending "don't let them hurt eachother". It's clear she wanted Katara to bloodbend there. Though she likely was surprised it worked right away. That or she expected Katara to bloodbend Aang and Sokka instead of her. But it suited her goals either way so she wasn't going to protest. Again, evidenced when she goes laughing to prison after congratulating Katara.
@@SimplymeSVEN18 at some point she literally gives up on trying to teach katara mid fight and actually starts to fight her did we watch the same show ?!
@@SimplymeSVEN18 hama has potential but she doesnt have the same amount of power as katara
The next subject you should do is "What if Osai wasn't evil, changing the story completely."
Ming-Hua is just on another level IMO, Hama is psycho, Katara is so well rounded and versatile (can heal and bloodbend), and Kya uses water as if she was using air.... but Amon is truly in my opinion the best, he technically cannot be defeated unless it's by an avatar.
Exactly
Ohh mad the member and the red ladies is my favorite she is deadly
Im glad to see someone finally give unalaq credit as the best base combat waterbender. As a villian he is by far the worst and that makes many people write him off, but his skills as a waterbender cannot be overlooked.
He has the avatar state here
Unalaq & Yue don't count because of spirits so indeed Amon is the GOAT/MTOAT.
For me selecting Katara in 4th place is a crime, she literally mastered waterbending + the 2 sub bending elements in less than a YEAR, Amon and Unalaq are grown adults, imagine what Katara could be at her 20s/30s, but ofc she can't stay at the 1st place, Yue is literally the moon and can create giant waves without even an effort, more more than Katara, and by the way she can bend while being a spirit is just insane. Katara should've been at the 2nd place for me.
She should be 4th. Behind Amon, Tarrlok and Yakone
These commenters are so deluded. Katara is extremely powerful, yes, and a world class water bender and healer, but she is NOT a blood bending master.
She showed prodigy potential, but she never mastered this art. By choice.
Amon literally used blood bending to take away peoples ability to bend the elements, and not even Katara was able to heal that or reverse the effects. Katara also never learned spirit bending.
Her being your favorite character does not make her the most powerful. She was appropriately ranked. Great video 👍
In The Legend Of Korra, Katara was regarded as the best water bender. We only saw Katara as a young teenager who had just been a master for about a year. I would imagine she was way stronger in her prime. I think she should hold the number one spot.
I'm pretty sure they said she was the best healer but nonetheless katara in her prime would soo cool!
The fight movement animation ws so great!!!
Its a crime that Amon was not #1
Yakone and his sons should be top 3. They can do everything a waterbender could do, plus bloodbend effortlessly.
I just watched the live action Avatar series I think it's time to go watch the animation now
U mean rewatch for me though?😊
@miraclenweke4784 no bro I didn't watch the animated one🤦🏽😂 I had CN growing up at home not nickelodeon but I've just recently finished the animation what a great series liked it way more than the live action
9:40 to 9:45 aang realized that he was the avatar💀💀
Katara will always be number 1. No one except her, mastered blood bending in a few minutes
Well any water should theoretically be able to bb during a full moon it took hauma long time bc it was discovered yet
katara at no 4 is a crime she was really strong at 14-15 imagine her in her prime
The thing about katara is your basing her abilities from where she was in TLA. She couldve been even more powerful between then and LOK.
thats exactly why i cant wait for the new show we going to see them at prime
but not more powerful than daylight bloodbenders
What about korra?
He talk about 1 element not the avatars
@@Yleam
I know but in the air raking he put aang in the ranking
I never thought about Ming Hua was simultaneously doing like 5 kinds of water bending whenever we saw her fight. I would have tied her with Amon. I know blood bending is the pinnacle technique in water bending. But her ability to do all of that while having no arms is incredible.
Katara in her prime is the most powerful waterbender. She is the best healer in the world, learnt blood bending in minutes and overpowered the creator of blood bending… Her big scale waterbending feats are comparable to avatar state korra’s feats… And she started from absolute zero. She is absolutely the most talented and skilled waterbender of all time. Of course she didn’t develop blood bending due to moral reasons, but I believe if she had, she could’ve been a bloodbender at the level of Amon and Yakone. Actually, blood bending won’t work on a stronger waterbender, that’s why the avatar state negates blood bending. So I think not even Amon Yakone or Tarrlok could blood bend katara because she is just the better waterbender
Stop wanking. Katara is strong but she’s not on the level of Amon.
this is simply not realistic. The only time katara blood bent was when there was a full moon. Amon could easily take her out and that’s okay. She was the best water bender of her time but Amon easily beats her unfortunately
I don't think Katara stood the chance against Amon. she would just lose her bending like the rest. Amon was way too strong so that could resist another bloodbender and recover within minutes after being struck by lightning while Aang was healing for weeks after Azula's attack. Amon is the strongest waterbender in my book.
Cap
Katara was a more powerful bender than Hama. Of course she didn't develop blood bending not due to moral reasons but because she didn't know that could be done and nobody else did because Hama was the first to develop it. And it's a good thing that Katara lobbied against blood bending because when blood bending is used on someone it causes psychological effects on a person. And Avatar Ang and Avatar Korra never learned and used blood bending
Tonraq never defeated Unalaq, Unalaq wiped the floor with him… great video nonetheless!!
the way he says toph kills me
And amon
but katara is recognised as a master of every form of water bending and the best at most of them to ever live, canonically.
That’s is an absolute lie, she’s not a master she’s a beginner. And she is the weakest waterbender on this list
Amon washes Unalock, idk what you're talking about.
Even I love katara so much but yes this is so realistic rank.. And im suprise with the number 1 rank and again yue deserves that award and of course our standing applause for her... Love from Indonesia..
Awwwnnn Thank You so much❤️
Please stay tuned for more bending contents.
@@MindBursterz i'm always here and im always enjoying your videos 😊
I think hama should be place a lil bit higer .....she collected water from the air
It shouldn't be nothing difficult. There is H2O in the air. It's not like she needed to create a chemical reaction to get it. The amount of water you can get is low. From the air you can get 30g from 1m³ in best conditions. And the main reason why nobody else is using it is probably because there is no f**king water in air on south and north pole as it's below 0
The ending was hilarious af
kya wasnt train on fighting only a healing trains and she almost beat zahere like mother like daughter
If Unalaq is ranked above Amon then so should Katara come she's a true prodigy, if we're basing ourselves off bending in general Amon ranks above all, if we're basing ourselves off simply waterbending feats then I think Katara had more than Unalaq.
Ming Hua was born without arms. She did not lose them because she never had them.
True... thanks
Amazing
Thanks
Amon is a terrifying opponent to face
Yes he is😉
Very articulated
No. 1 was exceptionally!!
That fight between Kya and Zaheer had me gagged bc like the level of detail within the fight alone. The little water ring that she shoots ice out of, actually diminished. Obvs like it was an unfair battle but sis did her thing!
Katara's waterbendeing style is more unique than you might think. Her basics are self taught which already makes it unique, was taught northern style and mastered it. I don't think she mastered or even got close to mastereing southern style since she spend not even a week with Hama. Her bloodbending is basic, but being one of only two bloodbenders at the time already makes you unique. What people seems to often forget is that while she learned northern style properly, she is still mostly self taught and spend more time among earthbenders. Her movement and technic is closer to that of an earthbender.
Her dual with Hama is a great example. She blocks and strike most of the time rather than using her opponent's strengths against them, while Hama fights like a proper waterbender by redirecting Katara's attacks.
This could explain why Tarlok's and Korra's style of waterbending is also aggressive compared to their relatives in the North. Seems like the South Pole was affected a lot by this.
Amon is the #1 bender we’ve seen on this show out of any element tbh
How I wish Katara was power hungry so we would've seen how she beats these other waterbenders in the ranking to a pulp. I want to see her bloodbend while in rage. 😂
Katara is restricted in use of the bloodbending that it can only be used during a full moon and it effects the mental state so she doesn't use it often. The father and the two brothers were known to use it without a moon. Those three also did not hesitate to lose their minds over the bloodlust of being killers. Not only that Amon found out a way to take away bending using his bloodbending ability.
I don't care what anyone thinks about the legend of Korra, It's still one of the best!
Even though i don't like the show, but i agree

All bloodbenders are by definition better than all other benders. Amon 1, yakone 2, tarrlok 3, this top 3 is undenieble

Hama too. You don't end up the last waterbender standing in the South for no reason...
