Blazing rings and arcs: Spinning kicks or sweeping arm movements create rings and arcs to slice larger, more widely spaced, or evasive targets. Zuko used a circular motion with his feet to create an expanding ring and successfully knocked Azula down during their Comet-Enhanced Agni Kai.
Fire blade: As a more advanced version of a blazing arc, firebenders can create thin blades of fire by narrowing their flame projections, which can subsequently be launched at opponents. Azula used this technique when she cut open a wall. Zuko used this to free Azula from Katara's water whips.
Blocking fire: A skilled firebender can defuse and extinguish an oncoming fire blast from another firebender by using a swift kick, jab, or any other defensive maneuver, allowing them to stop attacks.
Fire circle: A technique demonstrated by the Sun Warriors. They created a circle of fire and suspended it in the air for an extended period of time. The Tribesmen made these circles with the Eternal Flame just before Zuko and Aang were to be judged by Ran and Shaw.
Fire daggers: Blowtorch-like jets which are created from the fist or fingertips to use as close range sword-like attacks. However, they lack the ability to actually block physical objects. Both Zuko and Azula have used this technique, the latter to hold Kuei hostage during the Coup of Ba Sing Se. Korra used a variant of this technique, creating a blowtorch as opposed to a dagger to cut through the chains that were binding Tenzin and his family during the Equalist victory rally. Mako used this technique to threaten Two Toed Ping for information regarding the theft of Future Industries' entire stockpile of technology, Korra also used this technique when getting ready to fight Macao and Lily at the Misty Palms Inn.
Fire streams/Blast: Another basic firebending ability, firebenders can shoot continuous streams of fire from their fingertips, fists, palms, or legs. These streams can be widened to create flame-thrower like techniques. Fire Nation soldiers often used this technique to damage or destroy villages or towns.
Fire whip: An extension of a fire stream, this continuous stream of flame can be utilized as a whip. The prison guards at the Boiling Rock used this to round up the prisoners during a lock down, and a trainer of the Fire Nation circus employed this technique to intimidate Appa. Zuko used a larger version of this in his fight inBa Sing Se, creating streams of great length for continuous mid-to-long range combat and using it to counter Katara's water whip technique.
Fire lashes: An even further extension of the fire whip/stream, firebenders can create a long lash of fire and bring them down on their enemies, like Azula did to Aang, or create smaller, multiple lashes and envelop an area with fire, like Zuko did.
Fireballs or "Fire-jabs": A basic ability, jabs and punches produce miniature fireballs and missiles of flame. These can be charged up to create larger, slower bursts, or swiftly and repetitively fired to keep opponents off balance.
Flame redirection: In a similar fashion to waterbending, firebenders are capable of changing the course of an incoming fire blast and redirecting it back at the attacker using fluid motion. This move exemplifies the use of firebending as an extension of the body and is used infrequently in modern combat in favor of more offensive maneuvers.
