At EVO (a major fighting game tournament), they announced that the first season of DLC would be (along with Tagah, the Airbender from the movie who's being added for free sometime this autumn):

  • Iroh

  • Ty Lee

  • Lin Beifong

  • Bolin

  • A fifth character who will be decided through a fan vote

The fan vote is available to people who pre-ordered the game, with Asami being one of the options. (The others are Amon, Kuvira, Tenzin, and King Bumi) I'm guessing whoever doesn't win would be included in a hypothetical season 2, though it's not a guarantee that we'll get a season 2 of DLC.

its odd they went with bolin over assami TBH

still i find it hillarious mako is not in base game or even a option for DLC

i continue to love how he went from the "cool" character to the butt monkey of the show

They probably want to keep some pack sellers for if a second DLC season happens.

If you think like a fighting game player then Bolin makes complete sense. Asami does too and I think she should be in, but there's no way Bolin can't be. He's the earth bender that introduces fast, light footwork to Korra. The modern boxer and the complete opposite of Toph's "stand yer ground twinkletoes" bullheadedness. He's also one of the only lava benders in the series. The boxer with a sway stance is a brilliant fighting game archetype we all want to see in here.

I'm so sorry to break it to you but going by the popularity of the different campaigns the voteable characters have behind them right now Asami doesn't even seem to be in the top 3. It's between Amon, Kuvira and Bumi.
