A single earthbender would be unable to reshape the landscape to dominate in a land confrontation, but as seen in 218 the Earth King, when working in concert Earthbenders can move far greater masses of earth than they would be able to alone. A platoon of earthbenders for every nonbending unit would be enough to overcome most terrain challenges.

And on the firebenders with upgrades during the comet, the comet only lasted ONE DAY. I'm not saying it would be impossible to drive the airbenders out with a highly organized and extremely efficient attack in one day, and there would be massive casualties, but after that there would be some serious vengeance when the comet was gone. And their "upgrades" would have been long gone before they moved against the Earth Kingdom
