I like to think that Mae would have taken Azula down. I don't think Azula and Mae were ever really friends. Mae was around Azula because Azula is the Princess. Somehow or other it was decided between their parents that Mae would be a suitable playmate for the royal children. Even if she wanted to stop playing with Azula, her mother would have made her as it would have been very impolite to refuse a Royal invitation. When Mae is shown as a child she is away from Azula and Ty Lee, she only finds joy when Zuko is around. She always liked Zuko so she would have to dislike Azula. And Azula was not really nice to her, Azula enjoyed making her do things, and not always pleasant things either...(the bear). He is the only thing she likes about her life there. I imagine it was probably pretty hard on her when Zuko was banished. So when Azula came calling she was extremely bored and also obligated and hopeful at the prospect of seeing Zuko again. Mai shoots her arrows and daggers with precision and accuracy - kind of like the Yu Yan Archers morphed ... she could have slit Azula's wrists, heart, throat in one shot...disabling the bending and killing the princess before she could get that first shot off. She can also takeout more than one person at once if necessary. That's something that I don't think Ozai could have gotten past easily. It is good that Ty Lee stepped in when she did. Azula was angry, but Mai was in total control.
