Is it water, earth, air or firebending? And why?
What kind of bending in "Avatar" is the most powerful kind?
That's like asking what martial art is the best. There is no best.
It all comes down to an individual's skill and experience.
Fire or water, they both have secondary properties that the others do not. Like lightning, or ice, and blood bending.
^Never heard of metal or lava bending^
@dmnb2wavy: I'm not forgetting them but since he and his family are the exception and not the norm, it is still the same.
Unlike what most people say, I feel earth is thee strongest element while air is the most versatile element. Fire and Water are inbetween and can vary from situation to situation
The best secondary bending element though is hands down blood bending
Most "powerful"?
depends on which actions involve the most energy utilization per unit time.
I would assume that earth bending requires the most energy to accomplish (since earth is the most dense and most massive material), compare to the rest (air (gas), water (liquid), fire (hot gases and probably some plasma?))
"Fire" could be more powerful depending on how much heat content you are transfering.
"bloodbending" is probably the most directly and effectively lethal to blood bearing creatures but is pretty much useless for any other non-blood related purposes.
On average it would an air bender or fire bender I would think, they are less affected by conditions like an earth bender and water bender are.
(Lack of water or lack of earth)
Ignoring amons family blood bending has strict conditions so it would be simultaneously the weakest and most powerful among the secondary bending abilities.
In just raw power it should go: lightning bending, combustion bending, lava bending, metal bending, and then flight.
