TheOriginalOne 10,130 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Toph would definitely be the winner of the fight. As much as I love Bolin, I do to think he can put up much of a fight against Toph when their in their element. Let's remember, Toph is regarded as the best earthbendet in the world! No way she'll lose the fight. Unless, of course, like Vendetta said, she gets surrounded by lava which would block her "vision". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
windzo 751 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Actually if she gets surrounded by lava she gets a big disadvantage cause she can't see through it. Pretty sure she will still be able to because even if there is lava around her as long as she has earth to stand on she will probably still be able to feel the earth in the lava and around her I mean if she can feel the eart in metal I am confident she would feel the earth in lava (but it will probably be hard for her to see using lava soo you prob got me there) but hey like I said she can predict Bolin's movement before Bolin even does anything so im sure she wont get herself in that situation or its highly unlikely Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betty Who 62 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Oh my this is an interesting battle! like everyone is saying, Toph obviously has her seismic sense, but if Bolin were to counter that by lavabending a moat around her, that would put the battle in his favour. The trouble is, whether Bolin would think to do that on his own... not that he's not intelligent or anything, but he seems to fall back on the forceful probending style more often than thinking carefully about each move. It's also been established that he likes to work as a team player, often relying on his brother or someone else to make a plan and urge his confidence on. In that sense, I'd have to go with Toph. Bolin would certainly put up a good fight, and the lavabending would throw her off if he were to use it to his advantage, but chances are she'd find a way to end the battle long before that.

It seems that Toph is dominating the battle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAXX 275 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Many of you are saying that the seismic sense can be counteracted with the lava, but its high density would still let the seismic waves travel through it And if anything Toph can still put some metal grips on Bolin's limbs, Kuvira style :laughga: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it's in a liquid form and it continains fire which is plasma, a phase between gas and liquid. So it will definitely be more difficult for Toph to see across the Lava.

windzo 751 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I more thing I wanna add in tophs favor she can easily dig her way around the battle field she will be able to tell where the lava is coming so she can move around it unless bolin tries to turn the whole place into lava but it will need him to focus alot which im sure toph wont allow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nino 12 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 She's one of the best benders to ever live. She would wipe the floor with Bolin before he ever got the chance strike. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he is one the very feew nown lavabenders as well, you can't say that the battle is unequal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolin literally idolizes Toph (as evidenced by their visit to Zaofu) for how great she was. She could easily dodge the lava with her Toph magic and strike Bolin down. I just feel that even with lavabending in the picture, Toph is still the greatest Earthbender we know of, other than Kyoshi obvs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good enough obviously. I can't find anything else to Earthbenders that is close to her except King Bumi and probably Avatar Kyoshi (I say probably cause we don't know that much about her).
