The Legend of Korra - Worthyness - 2012-06-05
Don't think that Amon is an airbender. Yes it is possible that he could have survived (like the air bison), but it's not likely considering that Aang was considered to be the only and last airbender (hence the title of the series). I will agree with you on the fact that Amon may have been a bender before and I believe that Aang probably took away his bending (or somehow slipped up during the process and let slip the ways of energy bending, hence letting Amon take away people's bending).
And Spirit isn't directly related to the Air benders like Water benders are to blood bending. Spirit is available and within every person (Uncle Iroh was possibly a highly spiritual fire bender for example). The Air benders were more spiritually focused than the other arts solely because they were air nomads and that was their culture. It would be like comparing a normal, every day christian to a priest- they're both spiritual in their own way, but the priests have dedicated their lives to gaining more spirituality(or in this case, being closer to god).

Amon idea
Good point though. I was more referring to sort of secondary skills, though, but you've got a point.

There is gonna be an episode next week according to my guide.

The Makorra and Asami drama crap in this episode felt so unnecessary. I wish I lived on a planet where romance didn't need to be shoved into every TV show and movie. And I think Mako is becoming one of my least favorite characters. Otherwise great episode. Amon is a BAMF.

God, I felt so bad for Asami

I really should learn to stop looking at this thread before i watch the episode.
Guessing it hasn't hit the internet proper yet, since i can't find it. (i found one, but it was low quality)

He's just an extremely powerful bender, I presume. The moon just strengthens waterbending so blood bending is more feasible, but it's not a technical prerequisite. Yakone also seems more powerful than Tarrlok since he can bloodbend people just by looking at them.

Also, I'm happy that Amon took away Tarrlok's bending. Tarrlok was a true pimento.

The first video doesn't work, you need the second one, just above the links at the bottom.
About the episode:
Lin for president. that is all.
And seriously, Tarloc asked the right question. WHAT is Amon? It's clear that Tarlocs bloodbending affected him slightly, but he just shrugged it off, even better than Aang could.
