Water is one of those natures that are truly effective only in a specific environment, although there's a few exceptions and very skilled users can use high level water release techniques with no nearby source of water. Its effect even though has been defined, hasn't been well demonstrated. It can change: viscosity and state of matter. I just wonder what Water Release: Rasengan would do besides some damage obviously...

My most favorite basic nature is Wind... Just so many applications. Not to mention you can't see wind, only its effects.

Lightning is just an inferior wannabe wind imo, fewer applications and lesser cutting power. Although one gotta admit it looks cool and flashy.

I agree earth is great and the most versatile.

Fire is the least versatile, although in terms of raw power arguably the most destructive... Looks cool and flashy too, I mean, Fire Dragons...
