I still thought Korra should have had an advantage by knowing all 4, but I guess maybe Vaatu was at peak strength at that moment.
The same thing happened with the Fire Lord and Aang during the end of the first series. The Fire Lord could only bend fire, but was powerful enough because of the comet to be a serious threat. Vaatu was Unalaq's comet.
The difference in my opinion is that Aang was 5 years younger and barely had training in his non-native elements. He had less than 1 year of water-bending training and maybe 1 month of fire-bending. Whereas Korra is now 18 and should be a master in everything but air.
But you have a good point about Aang's stronger spiritual connectiong giving him a stronger avatar state. Korra often did the thing where her eyes glowed like she was going into avatar state, but she only got a short boost of power instead of going into god-mode.
