I really dont think Amon is an energybender. Just look how Aang, a true energybender and the Avatar took people's bending away and how Amon supposedly does it. Aang uses two fingers to energybend, his Index and and middle fingers while Amon only uses one which is his thumb. You can argue that it doesnt matter finger(s) u use but i think it does. What i think Amon is doing is some sort of hypnosis or breaking of the spirit to make people think they cant bend anymore if Amon attacks them. This is also fueled by the fact lots of people know what Amon can do. If Amon uses this technique on Korra i am pretty sure it would FAIL as the avatar has a near unbreakable spirit (the only way it could be broken as well as the avatar cycle ending is if the avatar is killed while in the avatar state) but since Amon goes and disrupts and attempts to break the soul itself this could trigger the avatar state in Korra.
