You know the tier list is bad when Iroh, the man who not only taught firebending to Firelord Zuko, helped Kora as a spirit, and even taught many valuable life lessons to us, the viewers, when the dragon of the west himself isn't in the top tier. Disgraceful.
Roku and pathik in BENDER BASICS already gave it away Even for Lo and Li, they gave life changing advice for the entire azula gang, which really came true.
I do think the air bison and moon/ocean should have been listed under Original Benders for Air and Water respectively. I mean, the siege of the North Pole showed Tui and La (Moon and Ocean Spirit) as the koi swimming in endless circles forming Yin and Yang. And we see the the ATLA group constantly with an original air bender (Appa)
For bisons i said it too. Ang said it himself that they are the original masters. Plus if we think carefully the technic the zahir used in legend of korra, flying, it's the same technic that bisons use to fly. And for ocean and moon spirits it may be the original masters bc like earth air fire had their original masters, they may be the same for waterbanding. Plus in north waterbander tribe, in fire nation attack, ang manage to make them leave with help of ocean spirit by uding waterbanding, both of them. So...
@@JXekil_I Nope, Jeong Jeong taught Aang what are the real intentions of the 4 elements. “Water is cool and soothing, earth is steady and stable, but fire is alive” He basically taught the Avatar the real importance of those elements and he certainly made sure that Aang would find the importance of learning Water and Earth before Fire. I still agree that he's bender basic though
@@Ghastman3085 not really. When Aang finds him you can see the dozens of firebenders he beat all by himself, the creators even confirmed he billed them
You know, i always find it funny when aang say the line "maybe you can give me some lessons" to appa, like come on appa, you suppose to be friend for life anx you never thought about giving aang some lessons ? Lol
Guru Pathik is life-changing for me if not for the Avatar. His teachings to Aang regarding chakras inspired me to delve deeper into spiritual philosophies. I was only 6 when it aired.
Katara and Tenzin are my favorites on the list! I would certainly love them to be my mentors ❤️ And hey, a little honorable mention to Korra, who was Opal's first teacher, who she debuted with as it was her first time teaching someone. And she did very well.
If you ask me I would personally put zuki in gold Star or life changing because her techniques have created a movement that’s more enduring same way how iroh, katara and tenzin shows the smart way to level and challenge yourself to embrace bending.
I’m going to give you one little thing, I think Iroh should be higher on the list under “Original Benders” because he invented a new technique called lightning redirection.
it's not like the lion turtle gave the power to aang. I feel like he just gave knowledge on how to bend another's energy. If anything, i think that raava's light spirit already bestowed that power on the previous avatars. They just didn't know how to use it
Avatar Roku, Guru pathik, Suki, master piandao, Monk gyatso, Iroh, Katara,Toph, Badgermoles, Ran and Sha, and the lion turtle are, in my opinion, the best ones on this list! But the Lion turtle definitely deserves that top spot!😆🦁🐢
My genuine reaction to not seeing Gyatso at the top was putting my hands up to the air, staring at the ceiling and shouting BRUUUUUH at the top of my lungs LOOOOOL 😂😂😂
I feel like some of these where more so directed by how popular they are, I would at least argue that guru patik should be much higher on the list, because he got aang on his way to being balanced and that lion turtle finished it. And Zuko should also be higher, like who else was going to teach him firebending, but also the humility of redemption
The lion turtle is definitely the number 1 spot on all powerful, they gave people bending. And Toph she learned earthbending from Badger moles, and she invented metalbending. Top really is the greatest earthbender in the world. Thanks i enjoyed the video, see you
@@irunny3778wdym doesn’t matter, her discovering metal bending literally speed up the industrialization in LoK. She has an enormous impact on LoK through metal bending alone, not to mention she is the best earth bender too
Love the channel and it's amazing that it keeps on delivering some Avatar goodness to us all! I get how you tried to do this list, but I must say I disagree with a lot of the choices there. Still a very enjoyable video tho. Also, I know the title references the name of the channel, but it is a bit misleading, it makes it look like it wouldn't feature LoK characters.
Great list!! However I think the moon and ocean spirits for waterbending and the flying bisons for airbending should have been included under original benders as well.
Guys I really respect you still make avatar videos after 18 years, But PLEASE. I've been with this cliff hanger of zuko's mom for way too long. Is there gonna be a season 4 post war??? It would satisfy a lot of fans!
@@cyberdevil657 Spoiler! To make it short. Zukos Mother left Ozai, went to the spirit world, changed her face and deleted her memories, started a new life with another dude and got her own family. They found her, didnt know it was her at the beginning and found it out in the end. Its not really that great of a story to be honest.
If I would choose my mentor, Avatar Mentor: Kyoshi Earth Bending Mentor: Toph Fire Bending Mentor: Iroh Air Bending Mentor: Tenzin Water Bending Mentor: Hama
Interesting ranking. I was with you up until Avatar Aang. Even be what you quoted in the video would put him on the "Life Changing" ranking. How he restored the Avatar state to Korra and his line even helped me in my personal life when he said "At one's lowest point is when they are open to the greatest change." Stongly suggest to re-do or make a correction and move him up a rank.
Iroh and Tenzin are by far the best characters of the shows. The way I look at it, everyone has to undergo a phase of Tenzin, before being able to become an Iroh. While Atla was superior, Korra really did capture the struggle of getting on terms with oneself with Tenzin.
Dude Iroh mentored Zuko, the rest of the Gaang and more, whether it’s bending or wisdom. Dude this current tier is sheer disrespect. Iroh deserves his own tier at this rate
3:44 how many "sources" does fire bending have anyway at one point they said it was the breath at one point they said it was your stomach at one point they said it was the sun at one point they said it was sozin's comet and then it was actually two dragons with rainbow flames as the true source of firebending though they implied that was ancient firebending not modern if i remember right?
Not sure about lo and li. Having to deal with azula since birth...well... no easy task. azula is very intelligent, and im sure the sisters had a lot to do with it.
Iroh Lernt the way of the elements, the way of life and the way of the spirits, he is the one true Teacher, he taught disipline, awareness, and most importantly that Honor comes from modesty not pride, he would be the best Avatar ever.
I wouldn't rate Toph, Iroh and Katara in the same tier. If Toph is Life-Changing, Iroh and Katara are higher. Toph's teaching methods are not "mentor" type. Also, would've rated Pathik and Roku higher. Anyways, Iroh and Katara are two of those mentors I would loveee to have!
So this list contains people that aren't really benders. despite being a "bending mentors tier list". and a lot of those rated are below where they should be IMO.
I think that Guru Pathik deserved a higher spot, for his wisdom and how strong the avatar state is.
And he knew Laghima's philosophy.
@@user-hx9qf3ps6o that too
@@turtlesrprettycool3379 I’d say gold star.
@@turtlesrprettycool3379bssjjsjs❤
Exactly my thought.
The fact that Gyatso made Aang a master by the age of 12 while constantly making him have fun should prove that he deserves a way higher spot!
Zuko was life changing. I dont think anyone would argue he is less than that.
He literally saved his life by teaching him how to redirect Ozai's lightning
Facts
The top list was made obviously by Toph
You know the tier list is bad when Iroh, the man who not only taught firebending to Firelord Zuko, helped Kora as a spirit, and even taught many valuable life lessons to us, the viewers, when the dragon of the west himself isn't in the top tier. Disgraceful.
Thank you
Thank You Sir
Fact ✅💯
Well he isn't All Powerful or an Original Bender so hes really the highest he could be
they ranked him in the top tier, what do u mean? the only two tiers higher were reserved for the beings that created bending or higher
I'd think that Toph should be "Original Bender" since she invented and mastered Metal bending.
Not really, cuz metal bending is just earth bending the small rocks insinde a metal
But Dai Li were metalbenders before her. (Remember how did they locked Long-Feng and generals)
@@user-hx9qf3ps6o No they weren't. They always used Earth in it's base form.
@@controlman7490 Вut they could lock the metal shackles.
@Сергей Макаров No? The Dai Li always used rock cuffs? What are you talking about? They never metal bent.
Hama was definitely life changing for Katara--maybe more life scarring, but definitely life changing.
It says it on the video.. Hama CHANGED Katara forever...
I love the line delivery in "You want to stop breathing?"
This Tier list is Detention rank. It plays like someone never watched Avatar, just read a Buzzfeed article about it and decided to give it a shot.
I agree
Roku and pathik in BENDER BASICS already gave it away
Even for Lo and Li, they gave life changing advice for the entire azula gang, which really came true.
"this ability would later save aangs life"
proceeds to be put in "valuable"
Actually jinora should also be in this list ,
She trained the new Airbenders and the avatar as well, in both air and spiritual stuff.
No
She's not in avatar the last Airbender
Nor is tenzin
@@nwqxrrnor is tenzin in avatar the last airbender he is only in lok (legend of korra)
@@krishankumarsingh3424 I know
I would love to have both Iroh and Toph as my mentors.
I want them too
especially Iroh, Toph might throw you around a bit much.

Every
one does And I would Like Zuko too

Master Piandow, however you spell it, also taught Zuko swordsmanship
Jeon Jong in bender basic? Nooo, he taught Aang one of the most important things of fire bending: An uncontrolled fire will only make destruction.
That’s pretty basic😂

@@Stanley_Pines. I was referring to the original comment, the other information he gave does make him a bit more valuable, but not all that much.
please dont turn off the comments. I'd love to see the comments about the avatar from people around the world.

how is patik basic and zuko valuable? without those two aang would be toast in his battle with ozai
Other than that, who did Zuko teach? Arguably the dragons did more.

What about tui and La, the flying bisons, and king Bumi???
idk about king bumi, but i definitely agree with tua and la and the flying bisons
Aang was a master air bender before he learned of him being the avatar. Insane.
Why isn’t the sky bison included in the original benders?
and the moon spirit
Roku disrespect will not be tolerated
Roku must know that Aang must learn to bend the water and earth before fire
Exactly
I seriously want my dream top mentors to be toph, katara, iroh, bagermole and monk gyasto.
If you can bend
If you ask me I would personally put zuki in gold Star or life changing because her techniques have created a movement that’s more enduring same way how iroh, katara and tenzin shows the smart way to level and challenge yourself to embrace bending.

I’m going to give you one little thing, I think Iroh should be higher on the list under “Original Benders” because he invented a new technique called lightning redirection.
I think it shoud be a category just for uncle Iroh, he is in my opinion the most winsdom of the humans masters you mention it
Where is the moon isn't it an original water bender
Toph is who invent metal bending..
it's not like the lion turtle gave the power to aang. I feel like he just gave knowledge on how to bend another's energy. If anything, i think that raava's light spirit already bestowed that power on the previous avatars. They just didn't know how to use it
am i the only one who thinks that most of this tier list makes no sense?
what about the flying bisons?
Toph should've been original since she invented metal bending and almost was self-taught.
But dai-li were metalbenders before her. Remember how did they catch generals and Long-feng
@@user-hx9qf3ps6o They didnt metal bend. They just flung the chains at him. But i know what you mean. It is kind off confusing at the first watch.
No
Haven't even watched the video yet, Iroh goes on top.
No
apparently he doesn't
0:53 I was immediately laughing at the fact that there was a detention tier🤣
Avatar Roku, Guru pathik, Suki, master piandao, Monk gyatso, Iroh, Katara,Toph, Badgermoles, Ran and Sha, and the lion turtle are, in my opinion, the best ones on this list! But the Lion turtle definitely deserves that top spot!😆🦁🐢
Toph was an original bender though
They all learned from great teachers and mentors, thanks to them they perfected their powers and abilities.
Toph literally invented metal bending
And where is APA has the original air bender??? And.... huummmmm, who is the original water bender???? :0
the original waterbenders are tui and la ( the moon and water spirits) or its just the moon itself

Iroh should've been higher due to his impact on almost all the last airbenders characters and even us the audience
the boulder takes issue with that list. Iroh should be on top of any list he is in.
Suki in a video of “Bender Mentors”. K
The way toph trained korra isn't training its more like rehabilitation to get korra back to her former self
Where are the air bison and moon and ocean spirits
