I find it hard to believe anyone with more than 200 games gets stuck below battle ruler but I've recently learned a lot of people actually are stuck there. It's weird to learn this since for me all it took was learning how to grab that's it.

So how do people get stuck that low in rank? Let alone get stuck in red ranks or orange ranks? I feel like someone could mash their way to fujin. So what's keeping people below that rank? Do they just not press buttons at all or can they just not learn?

I keep seeing people talk about aang is better or korra is better but each time I hear it i notice the bias people have. Like ignoring that aang left the air nation and didn't train. Or that korra opened the portal and let spirits into the world.

I'm curious of if we get all info who actually is a better avatar.

I understand the discomfort and dislike of withholding info from the population but the danger of allowing people to have magic is way too high to just allow people to have it.

I've had a lot of people get upset when I say this so I'll address some common things people say.

1. "We can make rules that limit use and regulate it." In my opinion this is an on paper idea. One that works on paper and falls flat on its face when it's introduced to reality.

Sure we could try to limit use but there are issues with this. You can't constantly see people at all times. Anyone could make a spell and take it with them and unless you physically searched them it'd be hard to tell they had a dangerous spell. And since the spells as small as your hand could level a city the danger is way higher than weapons we regulate in the real world.

2. "Bombs can do massive damage too and everyone has access to them." They do not that's something people say to make the two things sound the same. In reality a good bomb needs not just knowledge but a fairly smart person to make it. A dangerous spell only needs the ink and a drawing tool and some misplaced runes that's it. And in way worse cases bad ink.

3. "We can regulate ink and make it so only certain people have it" this is just the same as the pointed caps are doing the only difference is now everyone knows they are doing it. Which would lead to a big issue between wizards and no wizards.

The other issue is if you think something like the black market wouldn't get their hands on that you're crazy. They'd get the ink somehow one way or another.

4. "We can educate people so they don't abuse it" educating people doesn't mean they won't abuse or miss use it. It just means now they know how it works. No matter how many people get educated about the dangers of shooting people they still do it. Now imagine if that gun was a wall of water that could flood a city with ease.

And this isn't counting the people so curious they try their own things.

5. "People won't be smart enough to make the difficult spells" thats the best part is they don't have to be. If coco showed us anything is you don't even need to know spells you just need the ink and a spell you can trace. An entire uneducated group becomes dangerous if a single person can draw the spell for a nuclear bomb and pass it out to trace copies.

I'm curious to what other people think bc Ive been getting mixed messages in my friend group. I also love discussing stuff like this. Bc magic is extremely helpful and extremely dangerous.

I've been told those ranks are impressive but after getting my third character there and only having a total of about 200 ton300 games on him I find it hard to believe.

So is anyone lower than supreme just fodder? Even on my main character and my mess around character it feels way too easy.

For context I'm also beating gods with this newer character. Only every once and a while and I lose mirrors but it's still happening it it DOES NOT feel like it ever should.
