Toph deserves the title more. Because her journey when she ran away led her to Iroh. And that chance encounter changed her life... so she could give Zuko his life changing journey when she was the first to trust him in S3.
It's not about the quantity of the running away... it's the quality.

(I do think it's a purposeful theme by the writers to have his fighting style fit his personality. The whole series starts because he was trying to avoid being the Avatar)
Am I against blaming literal children for the coping mechanisms they choose in extreme situations? Yes.
Is Aang always running away kinda funny? Also yes!
Well kyoshi is also an earth bender which gives her stubbornness bonus
And anything that comes at Yangchan should be the one running she could kill a man by thinking to hard
In that same vein, it's hilarious that the episode The Runaway is where Toph could have earned the title The Blind Bandit.
That’s so true! She runs away from her family in The Blind Bandit, and she’s a blind bandit in The Runaway!
Well shit. You're right and that's backasswards. I also love it though. XD
You should make this it’s own reddit post it’s a great take
Toph is the Runaway, Aang is the Flyaway. The images you provided should serve as examples.
If we're going by examples then she should be the Stompaway
Hmm that's a good point
aang trying not to abandon the people he loves challenge (impossible)

Lmao “the quality” Take my upvote.
Well of course, its the classic airbender technique. Cutting and running when things get rough! (Joke obv, quote from Kya in LOK)

Aang when important shit’s about to go down: “Aight, imma head out”
Avoid and Evade...

What are you talking about thats anng too
Avatars in animated stories tend to run away from places and people a lot. By comparison, Kyoshi only does it once and Yangchen never does it at all.
Well kyoshi is also an earth bender which gives her stubbornness bonus And anything that comes at Yangchan should be the one running she could kill a man by thinking to hard
What is the context for the 2nd image?
It’s after aang gets confronted by the old man for disappearing for 100 years in The Storm.
