I've been rewatching the series and I got to say Avatar-verse lightning looks slow as hell. To me it looks lightning was moving slower than an arrow or regular fire blast, combustion blasts look like the fastest thing the series to me.
"Also, we don't even know if the lightning in the Avatar verse has real lightning speed, thus assuming that said lightning is moving at the speed of real lightning/drift velocity is ********.
In short, MHS Avatarverse is likely an outlier considering that Korra barely reacted to a Supersonic+...
Understandable I'll probably stick with Comic Vine and Who would win Reddit, I still don't agree with using the outlier as fact but this is a Wiki after all. I mean the series state Aang can move at the speed of wind so MHS is too far out there for me.
