Earth bending is by far the strongest kind of bending hands down. There's absolutley no competing with it on land from any other element. When you have the power to shift the ground under a person's feet, you know you possess a manipulation of the strongest element around. Waterbending is not readily available to water bender like earth benders. They can carry around a little water pouch, but a little bit of water in comparison to the world at an earthbenders fingertips is not much of a fight realistically. Air and fire are readily available, but earth benders don't have to dodge any attack because they actually have a solid element to guard with. The creaters make it seem like all the elements are essentially equal in strength, but earthbending is by far the strongest element period.
