Advanced Firebending Tutorial

Finn_Bueno_, I do not appreciate this tutorials intentions; purely to outsmart Kirby, who is evidently a much more experienced bender than you. I’ll start with the negatives:

Fire vs Fire
For one, you’ve disdained the concept of chance, which has a massive role in lightning. And, with experience, I can tell you that certainly does not have good aim. This is a flaw in the tactic you indorse, and could result in a loss. Also, in regard to combos, why use Fire Jet + Fire Shield, when you can use Fire Jet + Wall of Fire? After all, Wall of Fire does a significant amount of damage in comparison to fire Shield.

Waver vs Fire
“When they are separated from their source, they are completely powerless”
As it was pointed out above, waterbenders are able to bottlebend. This enables them to attack off land. From familiarity with waterbending, I’ve known many waterbenders to win against firebenders on land. This, is called false advertising. In addition, a waterbenders main move is Water Manipulation (something PK hasn’t been able to fix!). A waterbender would use this in close-combat with a firebender to block their Fire Blasts. Torrent isn’t vital, and is most commonly used to hook, or damage from a distance.

Earth vs Fire
Earth isn’t slow. It just does not need to be fast. However, when called upon, earthbenders can be. In addition to a waterbender, I focus on earth as well, and once more, this has been falsely advertised. And in what way are earthbenders predictable? Their transitions are slow, I must admit, but you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between Earth Smash and shockwave in transition, now would you? An earthbenders range is also around the same as a waterbender, with earthsmash having a distance comparable to torrent.

Earth vs Air
One thing I noticed is the fact that Airshield can block Fireburst. Using it against airshield is rather useless, and wastes time in the battle. And, finally, airbenders tend to ‘run and jump’ while using Air Swipe to deal damage. Using Air Blast would be useless in that situation.

-Removed because of advertising-
Knowing you play on the same server, you're "knowledge" shouldn't be taken in any consideration for anything. Also, most of the things you said are wrong, and other coders can back me up on that.
Reported for advertising.

Most of the things he said were right based on the server he plays on. It really depends on the configuration of the server. But I play on many different server and have experienced many different styles of any bending so I can confirm most of this from experience.

Saying that Chkirby is a more experienced bender doesn't seem logical because he has to rely on fireblast spam to actually be any good
I can gladly fight you anywhere you'd like, also I can use other tactics I just enjoy that one much more. It's just a preference not my only tactic.

I am glad you understand that a lot depends on the configuration. But yeah, most things comet just said are incorrect, simply because they aren't coded that way. @AlexTheCoder can back me up on that.

Omg I love you xD
I dunno about WManip, it fails me a lot but maybe that's because I gotta train my aim. But Surge? Oh, surge is broken into pieces. I can't set up a single surge shield, and many benders know that it is one of the vital Waterbender's defences!

It has always been like that, it's something Orion did.

@Vidcom , I suggest you close this thread, because it has no actual use, and it will most likely result in a flame war.

The intention of this thread was too teach fire benders some techniques they might have not known. Not to start a flame war, that was not the intention of this post, I apologize if it comes off that way but honestly we wanted to help the being community.

Yeah, every since the water update, surge has been alot weird.
