the gaang + playing scrabble? kind of narrow sorry sfdghjfhg
I actually have some posts regarding scrabble here and here. otherwise,
aang: insists that the “official rules” are “holding him back” and they should just have fun with it!
katara: insists the the “dictionary” is “holding her back” and she should be allowed to make up new words on the fly!
zuko: thinks that aang & katara are “ruining the sanctity of scrabble”... until he wants to break the rules or invent a new word himself, and then he’ll defend his right to do whatever he wants til his last breath!!!!!
toph: conscientious objector
suki: keeps trying to turn it into a drinking game, so that scrabble might end up actually being remotely fun somehow
azula: obsessed with citing the rulebook every time anyone is even remotely on the verge of having fun. goes out of her way to spell words no one has ever heard of just so she can smugly dare people to “look it up themselves if they really think it’s not a real word”
mai: also a conscientious objector actually. bc this game fucking sucks bro
ty lee: keeps all her tiles until the very end wherein she makes one amazing move and wins the whole game. fwiw, yes this is most of the reason that mai hates playing scrabble
sokka: goes insane whenever he plays scrabble because he gets way too intense about it and insists on beating his own new high score every time he plays. there’s actually no point playing against him because he will win by a landslide and then at the end of the game be like “ugh that SUCKED I SUCK at this game.” never play scrabble with sokka; it is simply a miserable affair for everyone.

which characters from lok are the best at ping pong and which are the worst? Or if you'd rather same question but for the gaang?
the thing is, everyone in korra’s friend group is equally intense about ping pong; when they play, it’s to the death. whereas with the gaang, it’s more varied:
aang: uses airbending to cheat win, and when people point out that puts him at an unfair advantage, he has no compunctions about immediately pulling the “well i would just play with my other airbender friends, but...”
katara: would be really good at ping pong if she actually concentrated on the game instead of spending most of her brainpower on coming up with snappy insults while she plays
sokka: thinks of ping pong as something to do with one’s hands while having a regular conversation, but sometimes he gets too into whatever it is he’s talking about and actually forgets that he’s part of a game and he just dropped his paddle because he needed both hands to gesticulate 
toph: conscientious objector 
zuko: gets goaded into playing every single time, even though he knows full well that he is abysmal at ping pong. he loses every time, and then yells and sets the ball on fire, even though the entire affair could’ve been avoided by him just admitting that he lacks depth perception and is therefore ill-suited to play this game. 
suki: whenever she beats katara, the victory feels hollow because katara’s trash talk is so much better than her’s. she has never once beaten aang at ping pong, but by god, if it isn’t her life’s mission to try.
azula: when she plays ping pong she may as well be going into battle. it’s not just a game, ty lee, it’s life or death!!!!! 
mai: ur just hitting a little ball back & forth? how is this fun for ppl...
ty lee: she likes pretending she’s really bad at it just so that when she does utterly destroy her opponents she can watch their fragile little egos deflate before her. the game itself is meh tho
