“I’m the greatest Earthbender in the world! Don’t you two dunderheads ever forget it!”
Ah, Toph. Arguably one of the best badasses of fiction, she’s the epitome of “don’t judge a book by its cover”. She’s taken on small armies, invented metalbending, and trained Avatar Aang in the very art of Earth bending. I simply cannot describe her awesomeness in mere words, so I feel inadequate in trying to write this. But I will try my best.
An 11 year old blind girl who learned to earth bend from elephant sized rodents, Toph quickly became a prodigy. She’s fought King Bumi to a standstill, and considering he’s had over 100 years more to practice and hone his skill, that’s saying something. She’s fought off legions of Dai Li agents with ease, and developed dozens of earth bending techniques. She truly is the greatest earth bender in the world.
But her skills don’t end there. She has impeccable acting skills, able to fool and manipulate her would be attackers into letting their guard down. And taunts, don’t get me started on her taunts. You’d better hope whoever she’s fighting is sound of mind.
Toph already has two wins in the DB community. had he fight Terra from Teen Titans, in a breathtaking fight. And :Lady-n-Gentleman: had her fight Edward Elric in a (I don’t have a pun for this one) really good battle. To top it all off, ScrewAttack has confirmed that they will use Toph in a Death Battle eventually.
But who can face the master of metal, the empress of earth, the… I don’t have a third thing. Lets find out!
Bolin (Avatar: The Legend of Korra)
Yes, this is kind of a mismatch. Bolin is an idiot, and an adequate earth bender at best. HOWEVER, his new skill of (!!!!SPOILERS!!!!!) lava bending could even things out.
Azula (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
Oh come on. WHO DOESN’T WANT TO SEE THIS FIGHT! Two of the most badass females of the series? How insane would that be?
Clay (Xiaolin Showdown)
Two masters of earth and martial arts from similar series. The only downside is that Clay refuses to fight girls, so… there’s that.
Onua Mistik (Bionicle)
Once again, both are masters of the element of earth. While Onua has a greater range of control, but he is made of metal himself. Mismatch?
Petra (Marvel)
Marvel’s version of Terra, possibly Petra could put the pain on the princess of pwn. Haha.
Magneto (Marvel)
Toph has the egde in physicality, but Magneto has better range and extremely OP metal-kinesis. It could go either way…
Daredevil (Marvel)
Two blind heros who compensated for their disability with badassery.
Matthew (Golden Sun: Dark Dawn)
Another master of earth, Matthew is nowhere near as adept as Toph. But he does has better weaponry, his djin, and magic skills to even the odds. He can even control plants and has some degree of telekinesis.
Himi (Golden Sun: Dark Dawn)
Same as Matthew. She’s a tiny, young, earth based magic user with enough side skills to even the odds.
Gaara (Naruto)
HEY GUYS ARENT I ORGINAL THEY BOTH CONTROL DA URTH! God, every new DB fan comes up with this one. And to be fair, it’s not that bad of an idea. I just couldn’t resist the opportunity to make fun of this match up.
Soundwave (Transformers)
The wimpiest Deceptacon against a girl who could turn greater beings into scrap metal. Will his size and strength be enough to counter the metal bender?
Jura (Fairy Tale)
Fairy Tale’s own “earth bender”. I know nothing about him, but hey, rock fight!
Rex Salazar (Generator Rex)
While Toph can easily control metal and earth, Rex can manipulate machines and metal. Could be an interesting fight.
Annie (League of Legends)
Another tiny, elemental prodigy, Annie is 8 years old yet can fight against monstrouslty powerful foes and monsters. Both are young girls with mastery in an element and a temper to match.
Lee Sin (League of Legends)
Another Lol champion, this one is a blind martial artist. Yes or No?
Hit Girl (KickAss)
Do I even need to say why this match works? Two of the most badass young girls in fictional history. And while Toph would likely dominate, Hit Girl does have firearms.
Weeping Angels (Doctor Who)
Yes, the angels are made of stone, giving Toph a beginning edge. However, they can move at blindingly fast speeds when not being seen, so they might be able to compete with her.
Next time on Macth ideas...
"Oh No! Counterattack with whatever you feel like man."
