I'm calling it - Soundbending is going to be the new sub-speciality of Airbending. When Avatar's creators promised to "blow us away" they meant to blow us away with noise.
Think about it - Lightning-bending, a sub-discipline of Firebending, has enough in common with Waterbending that a technique extrapolated from Waterbending can redirect Lightning. And Water and Fire are supposed to be opposites! Air and Earth are supposed to be opposites - one is free-form and swirling, the other being solidly rooted. When is Air most 'solid'? In a shockwave. In sound.
Sound-bending. Shockwave-bending.
It's going to be interesting. I'm putting dibs on this for now. Let me see if this prediction comes true.
