ALL POSTSOther sub-bending; lava, plant, etc
<p>Though we have seen the lava in a past-life Avatar (Roku) I would like to see at least Korra develop it, though we may not see that again until the next fire Avatar. The plant bending, of course, we have seen in the TLA in the swamp and the puppetmaster episodes. I would highly enjoy seeing more outlets of the four primary bendings. Yet, I believe we'll see something more along the lines of spriit/benders/non-benders aspects happening.

You do realize that the force of air required to strip oxygen from a persons lungs would be enough to keep their mouth open while performering the technique and also air can be sucked out through the nose. By putting hands over your mouth still let's air escape but the point is no oxagen is entering your lungs and all the air is being pushed out like a vacuum which is indeed deadly

I think suffocation would be to graphic for the show... could always have it in a fanon if you're desperate

<p>I could see an Airbender controling an airless zone by ripping all the breathable air out... this would knock a person out. and to the lava thing I think it is both earth and fire... remember the whole mud bending toph and katara did, same but different

<p>^ if the airbender did that he would also knock himslef out. Also @Thebridge14 rember in the omashu episode when azula cuts the air when aang throws an air lash, exactly, someone could just put their hand over the air vent and breathe afterwards. I am going to admit this skill would be deadly, but tooooooooo slow and too blockable.

<p>The lava bending is an Avatar only skill. As for mud bending, I don't know. Like you said, probably a combo move like cloud bending. </p>

<p>@Yerbyrico: just suck all the air out in like a 5 foot radius, then they can't breathe.

<p>@SlowReader Cloudbending can be done by waterbenders without help of airbenders if they have passed and amateur level. @DudeRandom, the bender can just run into your air bubble plus airbenders can't just take oxygen particles off the air, so it wouldn't work.

<p>No, just move ALL the air and create a vacuum

Now we're mixing science with a bending... this is a new layer of complicated...
(Edited by Slow Reader)
<p>Science is highly irrelevant in the Avatar world. and you cant just eliminate air. Oxygen always has to be present on a planet. But IFan air bender could take all the actual air out of a 5 foot radius then the person would die. Its like someone traveling into space they would explode because the internal pressure is higher than the external pressure. IF the air bender took the air out of a person then he would colapse because their body is roughly 60% air(oxygen) and nothing is to support their body.
