Eww. Little pervert.

Fact is, Toph and Katara would never kill each other, so I doubt Katara would be willing to use that water puppet thing on Toph, since it would probably kill her. And if Toph sucked Katara into the ground, I doubt she would leave her there to die. I say it would be a stand off. Even with a huge body of water around, and Katara had the biggest advantage because Toph can't see through water, I doubt either of them would beat the other. If she can't see Katara, all she has to do is make sets of walls, or bury herself and stuff, and Katara wouldn't be able to find her. If Toph had the advantage, and katara didn't have a body of water around, Toph would win. Same thing, underground and from under the ground, bury Katara too. Or kick her ass the regular way. So: if Toph has the advantage, Toph wins. If Katara has the advantage, neither of them win. And I severely doubt Toph would be stupid enough to accept a challenge taking place in the middle of the ocean or something.

I say that Toph would??beat??katara badly, And Katara is one of my favorite characters. It's?? in plain view Toph is??a far more experienced bender plus she's a whole lot more powerful?? than your average earthbender. Even if Katara does not move around much she'll sitll??loose once she moves??that's it.??

TOPH WOULD WIN EARTH IS EVERYWHERE AND TOPH IS VERY VERY POWERFUL, PLUS SHE'S ALOT MORE EXPERIENCED AND SHE BENDS DIFFERENT FROM THE AVERAGE BENDER.

I already said it: the human body is 75% water, so Katara could bend all of thop's body liquids and make her literaly explode into a meaty red fluid, then she can freze that flud and lick it as a popcycle. She can do that before Thop can even lift a rock!!

Katara make a move faster than Toph? Toph did more than a couple of moves and sent a shockwave through the ground in the time it took the boulder to take one step-- AS HE STARTED RUNNING. If Katara really knew that puppet trick, she'd never be able to do it on Toph before Toph took cover. She wouldn't know where Toph is to be able to do that trick, since Toph could just go underground. As I've said. It's logical.

you DO know that katara can bend water she can't see, right?

bones are not composed of enough minerals to bend. but cells are composed of enough water to bend. and swamp people can bend water in plants, so why not people? by the way it says it's possible on nick.com

Waterbending at its highest skill contains the most powerful technique among all the Bending Arts. At close range, expert Waterbenders literally uses an opponents body against them by harnessing the ample amount of water within the human body to control their opponent like a puppet master.

K, I didn't get that from nick.com beacuse I couldn't find it, so I got this form wikipedia. I know, wikipedia is not trustworthy, but if it isn't, then I guess this must be false too. Still waiting on that link.

nope. wikipedia is right.

but i was talking about a more fair scenario where there is a small pond/lake whatever and dirt ground. toph can hide underground, but katara can hover on top of the body of water where toph can't see her (but she can still randomly fire rocks from under the ground, though it won't be very effective). but katara can also "spill" the water onto the ground and freeze it so toph can't see anything on land. if she comes up, katara can slide over to her and bend her limbs. if she decides to stay down there, it will be a draw cuz nobody can hit either opponent

That last part is exactly what I said. Rather than come out and risk being controlled, Toph would do the smart choice and stay down. if she can't win, then it's a draw. If Toph has an advantage though, and there are no boddies of water around, Toph wins.

Well gee, before it starts? I assumed they would start at the same time. And like I said, Toph reacts FAST. If anything, before the match starts SHE'LL be the one making the first move. In the time it took the boulder to run one step, Toph took her stance and made an attack. Or if Toph had the advantage and Katara DID try that puppet thing anyway, the attack only works at CLOSE RANGE. Toph wouldn't be stupid enough to get close to Katara if she knew that puppet trick.

See, there you are assuming Toph wouldn't know Katara knows the puppet trick. But you are also assuming Katara knows the trick at all.

And I know you were kidding.
