One of favorite part of SF6 was ranking up each character individually. It really gave me a lot of incentive to grind out other characters to a certain level to gain a better understanding of their kit to counter them and I really hope that the Avatar Legends devs add a similar feature to their ranked mode. Anyone else feel the same or would you prefer a flat rank applied to your profile rather than each character individually?

We all know the answer to that. She'd throw hands and likely wouldn't be too upset over having to kill him. The real question is whether she'd end up falling for Zuko or Azula when they're older.

After thinking about it for a bit, Zuko and Azula share quite a few traits with Mako and Asami/Korra. Zuko and Mako are both Firebenders from broken families of some sort only Mako's relationship with his brother is the inverse of Zuko's with Azula, and Mako was loved by both his parents. They're both stated to be handsome and they both have a dangerous edge to them and a stoic outer shell hiding a caring personality.

Azula is a genius like Asami and a prodigy like Korra, and I think they would both naturally bond over bending and pushing themselves to the limit. Azula is also prideful and headstrong like Korra though more poised and tactical before her breakdown. I can definitely see Korra falling for an older Zuko and then discovering she's bi after spending some time trying to rehabilitate Azula. Apparently the developers think so to based on their interaction in Avatar Legends story mode. What do y'all think?

I keep seeing the idea that Airbding is lowkey the most OP element because Airbenders can suck the air out of a person or create a vacuum. This seems to ignore the context in all the instances we know of when an Airbender does this.

The three instances we know of are:

1. Zaheer - Creates a vacuum and sucks the air out of the Earth Queen's lungs. However, the Earth Queen was a frail old lady who couldn't fight back and the process required Zaheer to perform complicated movements uninterrupted.

2. Monk Gyatso/Yang Chen - The more relevant vacuum benders. Gyatso performed it against comet enhanced Firebenders, and Yang Chen performed it against combustion benders. Both impressive instances of Airbenders creating a vacuum, but what's not usually mentioned is that both instances were also performed against people in an enclosed space.

Everything suggests that an Airbenders ability to remove the air from someone's lungs is very situational. Either their opponent is helpless and unable to fight back, or the environment has to be favorable to the Airbender by having some enclosed space that can be used to utilize the vacuum.

Regardless, Airbending isn't particularly OP. No more so than any other element when they're in a favorable environment and are able to use their abilities the fullest.
