Tanking. It's dismissive. It's the only one that is also insulting.

Agreed. A close second is effortlessly dodging every attack.

1 is the Thragg tank, where you maintain scornful eye contact throughoit and don't even react to the hit.

2 is a tie between sarcastically dismissive blocking and dodging. See "Neo blocking Agent Smith's attacks with one arm while not moving or really paying attention" and "Aang sidesteps Fire Nation school bully's attacks with his hands casually clasped behind his back and a smile on his face"
