Top 10 Times Sokka Was Actually Brilliant on Avatar: The Last Airbender

[@TCWRebelsResistanceWords]

I'm surprised the scene when Sokka came up with the fake firebending in Roku's temple wasn't mentioned. Yeah, it didn’t work, but the scorch marks were able to fool the guards into opening the door. That right there, turning a failed situation into an opportunity for potential success, is completely brilliant

[@God_3712]

that was a brilliant plan but Katara was also great there

[@jeremyscungio16]

Like Jaron said that was one of katara's great moments

[@TCWRebelsResistanceWords]

@@jeremyscungio16 it was primarily Sokka though. It wasn't until after Sokka said "That blast looked as strong as any firebending I've seen" that Katara realized Sokka was a genius

He shows leaderships, comes up with a great plan to defeat all the airships counting on his friends assets, protects toph when she can't see, get to show his swords and boomerang abilities, while staying the sokka we know, joking around.

[@OriginalMokthol]

The only one I disagree with is Sokka "fooling" Wan Shi Tong. He used Wan Shi Tong's trust in the Avatar to lie about misusing the knowledge there, but Wan Shi Tong didn't seem to fully believe Sokka. It wasn't really clever, just a fib. Other's have mentioned it, but Sokka coming up with the idea of how to make a submarine work was clever. Not only that, but he had the idea of using explosives to fake firebend at Roku's temple. Sure it didnt work, but then said they could use it to make it seem like it worked.

Sokka gave me hope. I was often perceived as not very smart, but I think outside the box and come up with solutions. Now many people asking me for advice and it makes me finally feel so happy that I can help others.

[@voiceacticon667]

This is exactly why I never felt sorry for Sokka not being a bender throughout the show: he is strategic and brave all through out. He doesn’t give up and is just as capable in a fight, along with his smarts. That’s why I don’t take kindly to characters making fun of Sokka not being able to bend. I never felt sorry for Sokka not being able to bend because Mei, Ty Lee, Suki and Piandao are all capable fighters. Piandao fought and defeated a hundred fire benders by himself. So much so that they never bothered him again. If Suki, Mei, ty Lee, and Piandao can do much in a fight, why can’t Sokka? Sokka became my favorite character in the first season when his smarts was introduced.
