It's amazing to see how well the lore in Avatar has been developed, so much so that it's made the live series as well.

Its popularity is partly due to the nonsensical bent of fighting that we see on the show. The fights are moving well, and some have such a long build-up, but it still goes beyond our expectations. These battles are particularly notable.

Sokka Vs. Master Piandao
A new unbending battle in a bent world
This fight isn't your typical head-to-head skirmish, which is what sets it apart. Sokka, not a bender, has always fought in a world dominated by bending powers, and his special abilities didn't go much beyond his boomerang abilities.
But this duel is where he will prove himself not only to others but also to himself. Master Piandao's skills are unparalleled, and he is a famous member of the White Lotus, and his calm demeanor in the face of Sokka's shock creates great excitement in battle. In the end, you don't just root for Sokka; you are fully convinced that he is a warrior in his own right.

Man arsonist
A new type of bending introduced in battle
When Combustion Man enters the series, he changes the bending rules a bit. His ability to channel firebending through explosive blasts is unlike anything seen in previous Avatars. This long-range mode is terrifying, like a sniper, forcing everyone to stop constantly.
He doesn't need dialogue to be intimidating, as his silence and laser focus, designed for takedowns, are enough to make you fear him as a villain. Its introduction expands the possibilities of bending, and the fight against it is famous.

The White Lotus Vs. The Fire Fire
Ba Sing Se's final finals
This fight is like the Avengers meeting in the world of Avatar. The Order of the White Lotus, consisting of legendary masters such as Iroh, Bumi, Pakku, Jeong Jeong, and Piandao, displayed their full power in a spectacular clash.

Qatar vs. Zuko
Fire Vs. Water at the end of the first season
The end of the first season wouldn't be complete without this famous fight. Katara and Zuko clash in the Northern Water Tribe, and the stakes couldn't be higher. Zuko's pursuit of the Avatar is fueled by his desperation for his glory, while Katara protects Aang and his people.
Katara improves her skills throughout the season, which initially surprises Zuko and makes him feel lonely. But he lets his guard down and Zuko succeeds in finding the opening and winning. It was nice to see the climactic rivalry that had been building up all season with Zuko succeeding for a while.

Toph Vs. The Wrestlers
Just when you think the little blind girl won't fight
When Toph enters the Earth Rumble arena, it's a moment that turns all her hopes upside down. A blind little girl, who is completely invisible, faces off against a group of land-rolling rebels, and she doesn't just hold her own, she dominates.
The fight showcases Toph's unique talent for manipulating the ground and acting recklessly. Boulder in particular despises him, and Toph takes him down quickly, using her trust in him. It's a fun, over-the-top fight that cements Toph as not only a good bender, but one of the strongest Earthlings in the series.

Katara and Aang Vs. Azula and Zuko
Two battles in season 2 that defined the story going forward
Season 2's final battle is a dramatic, high-stakes showdown that sets the stage for a darker tone. Katara and Aang face off against Azula and Zuko in an action-packed battle.
Azula's calculating temper is in stark contrast to Zuko's fiery and unpredictable anger, while Aang and Katara struggle with a sense of purpose and unity. The moment Azula attacks Aang in the Avatar state is a shocking twist that leaves the audience in awe. It's not just a war, but a turning point in the series, where the villains will be defeated, and the heroes will face their worst defeat yet.

Qatar vs. Hama
Period bleeding
The confrontation between Katara and Hama is one of the darkest moments of the series, introducing the terrifying idea of bloodshed. Hama, a former member of the Southern Water Tribe turned bitter opponent, forces Katara to fight mentally and physically.
The fight is a moral dilemma that is wrapped up in a dramatic fight, with Katara's compassion as she defeats Hama in a bloodbath, even though she doesn't want to. The fight is probably one of the most painful and memorable moments in Avatar.

Avatar Roku Vs. The guard
A hint of what the Avatar is really capable of
In a moment, Roku's spirit takes over Aang's body to buy time for Team Avatar to escape, and in the process, you discover the true meaning of Avatar. Avatar Roku's fight with the guards shows the full power of the Avatar.

Aang Vs. Lord Fire Ozai
The show has been building up to this fight ever since
This is the battle the entire series is built on, and it's offered at every level. Aang's battle with Fire Lord Ozai is both visually and emotionally amazing. Aang, using the full power of the Avatar State, finally becomes a fully Avatar, while Ozai unleashes the destructive power of Sozin's Comet-enhanced fire.
The choreography is amazing and the final moment where Aang chooses to spare Ozai's life to get rid of his bending is a powerful decision that stays true to Aang's character. It's not just a fight – it's the final payoff to Aang's journey as the Avatar and it's the best ending to the show we could have hoped for.
1
Zuko Vs. Azula
The unexpected side scheme managed to attract the top spot
The Agni Kai between Zuko and Azula is arguably one of the most emotional fights in the entire series. Azula, descending into madness, unleashes her fire, while Zuko faces her with a calm determination that reflects his growth. The music and sound design combined with the contrast between Azula's blue fire and Zuko's traditional orange flames make the fight look amazing.
But what really makes this fight stand out is the emotional weight behind it. Katara's intervention finally secures Zuko's victory, but the final Agni Kai was so famous that it was written into history, remembered even in the days of Avatar: The Legend of Korra.
