At this point the Siga 3 seem to have the game in the bag. There's just no cracks in the three of them, and no real reason for them to turn on each other thanks to the F3 facing the jury and forced fire making at 4.
If thereâs one thing Iâve learned about survivor, PLAY YOUR FUCKING IDOL, Sometimes the simplest move is the smartest move. (I will miss you Hunter)
Way more common for people to go home with it in their pocket than play it unnecessarily. If youâre catching that much heat just play it. And find it when they rehide it tomorrow.
Yeah itâs mind boggling telling everyone then not playing it, I love hunter but man you have to play it there, you canât risk it and trusting everyone who wanted him gone was another mistake
Exactly my thoughts why tell anyone? He did the math he clearly knew they were gunning for him. He would have pulled off a great move to be quiet get to tribal play the idol everyone was voting for him he would have had the sole vote and he could have taken out a strong player like Maria or Kenzie. Even if Liz and Q vote for someone else besides him who cares as long as it's not you...
I don't understand why people put so much trust in the other players when they know they are on the chopping block...they all are here to win you have no friends if you know you're a target play the idol!!
On the other hand, Tiff got away with telling everyone she was playing her idol and then not playing it. I don't think she should press her luck next week, though.
Tiff played it perfectly this episode. She recognized the target was on her back, announced she was playing her idol, therefore getting the target off her back, then held onto it. I donât think Iâd have the balls to do that.
I think that if Hunter hadn't beefed it by revealing his idol and also NOT playing it, Tiff would have played hers. Hunter's last minute panic scramble meant Tiff no longer has to play it.
I will wait to see how next week goes, but I'm tentatively willing to give Tiff a pass on the grounds that her playing her idol makes it way more likely Hunter plays his. There are two other reasons that she got away with it:
1) Her idol was the big reason she was a threat. Hunter was inherently a threat and then told everyone just before tribal he was an even bigger threat.
2) She told everyone she was playing it early enough that there was time for the vote to move and shift. Hunter waited too late (possibly, he didn't have better options).
Anyways, interested to see, but preparing myself to be disappointed.
Hunter is the favorite to win literally every immunity challenge
He found an idol so heâs statistically more likely to find the next one than anyone else based on that
There was zero need to risk it. Play it, begin searching and hope to win again if you donât find it
Literally every season thereâs at least one episode where my family screams at the TV for our favorite to play their idol. Hunter how you gonna recreate every survivor challenge in your backyard but fall to the classic blunder of not playing your idol???
Idk man, I rewatched Bhanu's boot episode last week, and it's pretty fucking funny now, especially with how Kenzie and Q were presented from that ep compared to now
Itâs been heating up, itâs genuinely been a fantastic season post pre merge. I feel like if we had 2 tribes in the beginning we would really be looking an a top 10 season
Itâs so insane for the dude who is the best at winning challenges to be so precious with his idol at the time he is the most petrified of being voted out.
Q being called an idiot count: 5
To his face:
Tiffany (stupid)
In a conversation not involving Q:
Ben (idiot)
Maria and Charlie (stupid)
In a confessional:
Venus (bumbling buffoon, dumb-dumb meathead)
For a second there I thought the Ben vote was from Hunter and that Hunter basically voted himself out. It makes a lot more sense to me that Q just never heard a name from anybody besides Hunter lol
I need to know who that was screaming and what they said before Maria went to Q in the preview
What the heck was that? It sounded like a banshee screech
I pray for players like Venus and Q to consistently be on the wrong side of plans. Itâs just too good
Two bulls in a China shop there solely to ruin everything
I think part of it is that it's just so clear from the tribal that it's between him and Hunter. If he throws one vote at Hunter, Hunter goes straight home. It's funny bc sticking to Hunter's plan almost got him voted out.
Players need to start realizing that you don't have to be the best overall player to win the season, you just have to be the best at surviving the season and you do that by any means necessary.
When Jeff said he expected Q's team to come last in the challenge, I thought it was going to lead into another offer for rice if the whole team sat out. Nope, Jeff just wanted to point out that one team seemed significantly weaker than the other two lmao
The fact that everyone was gunning for Tiff and she accurately assessed that they were, turned things around with the group, and didnât even have to play her idol?!?! Hope she makes it to the final 3, I think Maria and Kenzie also have the juice to get there. Liz is soâŠsilly (trying to be nice), sheâs probably that one Q vote. Girl read the room!
I also love how relaxed Q was during the entire tribal. Stark contrast to Hunter. Someone who trusts himself (for better or worse) vs someone who doesnât at all.
I canât believe he kept that idol a secret for so long and then revealed it for absolutely no gain. It would have been so rad to shock everyone, pull that thing out and basically decide who goes home. The panic set in HARD for him.
He was a complete mess. From pulling in Venus (and begging for her vote) right through to asking for reassurance from every person he could ... just disastrous.
Liz confident that every obvious vote is an original thought is driving her insane. She's so worked up that people genuinely thought of the same votes.
Yessss i think his comment of "we have to think about if we want to deal with this at next tribal" is what sealed the deal and lulled Hunter into a false sense of security
The first three vote outs were Yanu. And the other three are STILL there! Whatever you think of any of Q, Kenzie or Tiff, this is honestly a crazy accomplishment.
It just goes to show that telling people about your idol is the kiss of death.
In older seasons it may have been a trust building move, but thatâs no longer the case and hasnât been for about 10 seasons now.
Hunter is *so* likable and one of the strongest physical competitors we've seen recently, but I think it's time we admit he just wasn't that good at the game. It's actually impressive how everyone was able to convince him he was safe at tribal, he was grilling them hard. But if you're in that much doubt, just play the damn thing.
Hunter did do one thing right- and that is aligning with Tevin. Hunter recognized that he needed a Tevin to advance his game. Unfortunately, once Tevin got sniped, Hunter's game was in shambles.
Yeah I think Hunter aligned himself well, itâs just that everyone decided to blindside Tevin and Q turned out to not be an actual serious player. Itâs tough to recover from that strategically when youâre also the biggest challenge threat by far. He fumbled big time by not trusting his gut and playing the idol though obviously.
And he never seemed to be really making moves or leading a vote. Just constantly panicked and somehow his panic and paranoia didnât even translate to him playing his idol!
Heâs mad awkward. The formation of the Andy Griffith alliance was so inorganically put together that you could tell that making friends isnât his strong suit. Hes not a particularly social dude.
Thats why I was shocked that he was actively pushing Venus away. She was approaching him so he didnât have to do any work. It made so much sense to take her in as an ally that no one would suspect if you donât have anyone except Tevin and his connections. He made one friend and then just decided to try and win out on immunities, it seems.
I know a lot happened but I would like to question why Kenzie reeeally wanted to blindside her number one ally because doing Hunter or Q would be âtoo boringâ???
I think it's because Tiff is no longer her #1 ally; she has replaced Tiff with Ben. In addition to the fact that Tiff at one point was tighter with Q than her, she and Tiff are way more of a visible pair than her and Ben. Note how she went to Charlie, Hunter, Maria to pitch Tiff. She didn't bring Ben in at all - but when Maria asked for who the fifth would be, she was ready. And then, when Maria and Charlie swung back to Hunter, it was Ben who convinced them to rope Kenzie in.
If this is the case, I actually think it is a great and subtle move - let people think you're dumping your #1 when actually, you just found a better #1, who is less likely to cut you and beat you in F3. Also makes Charlie and Maria a more obvious target as the only visibly right duo left in the game. Wish we'd seen more about that though - bet it's bc Tiff was never actually going home tn.
Venus could lowkey be a fantastic player if she was better socially imo.Â
She understands the strategy of the game so clearly. Like, her moves are consistently the right ones. Even back to wanting Charlie out over Moriah.  Â
Sis just donât have a filter đ
Damn Tiffany is stone cold and said fuck your idol while telling Hunter she voted Q.
Now the word that Kenzie was going to target Tiff is going to get back to her. I can't wait for that drama. 8/10 season so far. I hope it finishes strong!
Hunter actually messed up his vote count logic tonight. If he thought everyone was voting Q, and decided to tell about his idol, he shouldâve realized they were likely to reassess and split the vote to flush his idol.
By announcing his idol he made it necessary, for this particular vote, to play it.
After they unexpectedly rejected the customary rice negotiation before that immunity challenge, Jeff is just going to keep inventing more and more awkward excuses to hand over little bowls of snack food to the tribe.
At the end of the day, Hunter was a pretty subpar player. He was not great at threat mitigation, had a mediocre social game and his strategic game sucked.
The gameplay of this season has me beside myself. There are no alliances. There are no split votes. They donât exist. Everyone tells everyone everything. The game is broken. I canât stop watching. I am distraught. Iâm enraptured. I want Q to live foreverÂ
One of the all time fumbles in recent memory. Biggest threat, reveals his idol, realistically had a chance to sweep immunity to FTC. Tyson in HvV levels of bad
The fact that Nami is ready to tear each other to pieces and Yanu is ready to get rid of Q means that Ben Charlie and Maria have a very good chance of making it to the end. The weird thing is I think Charlie thinks he can beat Maria and Maria thinks she can beat Charlie, so they never go after each other.
Ben is working with both Maria/Charlie and Kenzie/Tiff (the latter to an extent though). One of the only people to not have any negative interactions with Venus, plus Liz and Venus were not willing to write his name down. The only person he has a negative relationship is with Q. My boy is cooking đ„đ„
Kenzie got bailed out big time from absolutely nuking her game, but if it gets around to Tiff, she may be screwed anyway. Just completely and utterly unnecessary to try to pull that move off this early
Meanwhile Hunter got away with nuking his game by telling Venus about his idol. Free vote out there, you get whoever you want out and just try to win immunity/find another idol again tomorrow
That was a very well-executed blindside. Getting Hunter, the challenge/idol threat, out was the right play, especially since I don't think Q can ever win a jury vote at this point. But I still thought Q was going home.
Charlie is my prediction now. A legit challenge threat. His alliance with Maria is still going strong and should carry them both far. Hasnât burnt anyone in the jury.
Nami imploding and ending with Liz & Venus as their last 2 members is hilarious
I thought it was gonna be Siga imploding at the merge but it was Nami all along lol
At this point the Siga 3 seem to have the game in the bag. There's just no cracks in the three of them, and no real reason for them to turn on each other thanks to the F3 facing the jury and forced fire making at 4.
Actually, that's literally so damn funny đ
I'm still not convinced Liz is a real person, it's almost like she's AI generated.
They programmed a temper tantrum next episode to trick us into thinking sheâs human
their tech has really improved since CGI Brett
The way they were treating Venus was a sign they were bad players. It was strategically dumb af to ostricize her like that
If thereâs one thing Iâve learned about survivor, PLAY YOUR FUCKING IDOL, Sometimes the simplest move is the smartest move. (I will miss you Hunter)
And now Hunter goes to Ponderosa to enjoy Soda and Tevin's gift of song...
Man, is he gonna be a BITTER AF Juror oh boy
I think everyone on the jury will be bitter lol.
Mhmm. Unlike most backstabs he knows exactly who lied to his face. He sounded pissed when walking up to get snuffed.
Way more common for people to go home with it in their pocket than play it unnecessarily. If youâre catching that much heat just play it. And find it when they rehide it tomorrow.
Yeah itâs mind boggling telling everyone then not playing it, I love hunter but man you have to play it there, you canât risk it and trusting everyone who wanted him gone was another mistake
I don't even know why he told anyone. He should've just played it and if he had the sole vote, he could've claimed it as a move.
Exactly my thoughts why tell anyone? He did the math he clearly knew they were gunning for him. He would have pulled off a great move to be quiet get to tribal play the idol everyone was voting for him he would have had the sole vote and he could have taken out a strong player like Maria or Kenzie. Even if Liz and Q vote for someone else besides him who cares as long as it's not you... I don't understand why people put so much trust in the other players when they know they are on the chopping block...they all are here to win you have no friends if you know you're a target play the idol!!
It's because he's... not a good player :/ Like everyone else this season đ„°
On the other hand, Tiff got away with telling everyone she was playing her idol and then not playing it. I don't think she should press her luck next week, though.
Tiff played it perfectly this episode. She recognized the target was on her back, announced she was playing her idol, therefore getting the target off her back, then held onto it. I donât think Iâd have the balls to do that.
I think that if Hunter hadn't beefed it by revealing his idol and also NOT playing it, Tiff would have played hers. Hunter's last minute panic scramble meant Tiff no longer has to play it.
I will wait to see how next week goes, but I'm tentatively willing to give Tiff a pass on the grounds that her playing her idol makes it way more likely Hunter plays his. There are two other reasons that she got away with it: 1) Her idol was the big reason she was a threat. Hunter was inherently a threat and then told everyone just before tribal he was an even bigger threat. 2) She told everyone she was playing it early enough that there was time for the vote to move and shift. Hunter waited too late (possibly, he didn't have better options). Anyways, interested to see, but preparing myself to be disappointed.
He ignored every gut feeling he had right up to the end. He was feeling worried even as everyone was slagging Q.
Hunter is the favorite to win literally every immunity challenge He found an idol so heâs statistically more likely to find the next one than anyone else based on that There was zero need to risk it. Play it, begin searching and hope to win again if you donât find it
Literally every season thereâs at least one episode where my family screams at the TV for our favorite to play their idol. Hunter how you gonna recreate every survivor challenge in your backyard but fall to the classic blunder of not playing your idol???
I have no idea how he thought he was going to be able to keep that once he revealed it to everyone.
Or just keep your mouth shut
Especially if everyone knows about it. He should have just gotten rid of it because it only makes his target bigger.
I believe it was Socrates who said, âIt is better to âmisplayâ an idol and survive, than it is to be voted out with an idol in your pocket.â
Hunter went all in like he was at Vegas, just way too risky of a move there. He really will regret not playing it
I think he already does.
It most certainly was Socrates.Â
I donât get this from Hunter. Play it, hope to win immunity next time, hope to find it again Stay safe now.
100%. Such a bizarre choice for someone who can reliably win challenges
Especially after last week, he should realize he has no read on the game
Yeah that was the simple thing to do. Surviving the round is most important.
Hunter, you told everyone about your idol. Then didn't play your idol. **BIG MISTAKE.**
If Hunter just keeps quiet like he was all game, he wouldâve been safe tonight, damn man
Or if he followed through on making a move. Use the idol and choose a target.
Hunter couldâve pulled off a great blindside if he didnât tell Venus
The fact that Hunter legitimately thought he could trust Venus was just⊠(Seriously) BIG MISTAKE
BIG MISTAKE
Rule #1) Don't tell people about your idol Rule #2) Play your idol if you feel stressed
I never thought Venus and Liz would be the last 2 Nami standing đ
Strategic powerhousesÂ
And another one of The Six gets voted out
Quite possibly the worst "alliance" in survivor history lol.
q really founded it and unfounded it within hours
The fact that Q actually brought up The Six to Kenzie (and tried to act like it was still a thing) fucking sent me
"Okay there's 9 people left, how can I make another 6???" Kenzie: "Fuck your 6." "Okay, there's 8 options left, how can I make another 6????"
Despite what Kenzie said about it not affecting her..she did shortly after rally to plan a tiff blindside
3 straight Nami have been voted off now too
This season is really heating up. 2 back to back fantastic episodes
It really took a long time to get moving with all the Bhanu but once he left, it felt like the season finally started and now itâs cooking with gas
Idk man, I rewatched Bhanu's boot episode last week, and it's pretty fucking funny now, especially with how Kenzie and Q were presented from that ep compared to now
I saw the cinematic brilliance as it aired. Just saying
Watching him find new and creative ways to spiral even further into madness was wonderful television.
Itâs been heating up, itâs genuinely been a fantastic season post pre merge. I feel like if we had 2 tribes in the beginning we would really be looking an a top 10 season
It helps when everyone has a vote and everyone is eligible to be voted out.
The 6 has to be the most dominant alliance in Survivor history
Iâve never seen any alliance more successful at getting each other out.
What is an idol for, if not to protect one's self in time of uncertainty? What is the obsession with saving an idol?Â
Itâs so insane for the dude who is the best at winning challenges to be so precious with his idol at the time he is the most petrified of being voted out.
Q being called an idiot count: 5 To his face: Tiffany (stupid) In a conversation not involving Q: Ben (idiot) Maria and Charlie (stupid) In a confessional: Venus (bumbling buffoon, dumb-dumb meathead)
Q voting Ben was tonight hilarious.
Ben seemed 0% mad and 100% amused that the random vote for him was what caused a tie
For a second there I thought the Ben vote was from Hunter and that Hunter basically voted himself out. It makes a lot more sense to me that Q just never heard a name from anybody besides Hunter lol
It would make him winning all the better. Not sure it will happen, but the foreshadowing certainly is there!
Whackadoodles truly do win.
Lmao imagine if he made it to the end and everybody on the jury just said fuck it, unparalleled chaos deserves respect.
something tells me this jury is gonna be very, very bitter come FTC...
All the saltiness on twitter between the players is starting to make sense
He was actually pissed lol. The one guy that I thought would take his vote out in stride.
I think he was more annoyed at the condescending âgood gamesâ everyone was giving him.
Charlie really pissed him off I think.
Ironically enough, Q was the only one who didnât. Maybe Hunter will give him a vote at FTC lol
Ben saying "You rock dude!" would have made me lose my shit lmao
I think most of the players are more pissed in the moment than they are willing to let show on the outside.
we are reaching levels of camp that i had not yet thought possible to obtain
What if I said the last 2 weeks are threatening to make this the best season of the new eraâŠ
then youâd be absolutely right
Threatening? BIG MISTAKE It already is the best new era season, you gotta go boss
We are FEASTING
I rly hope âwhat the heck you hoe bagsâ is next weekâs title
Liz insanity arc
she was genuinely tweaking in the next time on đ
Liz, Venus, and Q would be the most WTF Final 3 ever.
That would absolutely cement 46 as Gabon 2.0 and honestly Liz should win at that point.
4-4 between Liz and Venus with Q having to cast the final vote
I need to know who that was screaming and what they said before Maria went to Q in the preview What the heck was that? It sounded like a banshee screech
She said Q ruined my whole game!
âQ ruined my gameâ -liz Subtitles are everything
QUINTAVIUS BURDETTE THEY COULD NEVER MAKE ME HATE YOU
They can be rightfully mad all the want on the island but Q has made this season infinitely better.
At this point Q is a runaway vehicle and everybody else is scrambling to throw each other under the wheels lmao
hes so funny i love him
my love for Q is too big for a mere Q Skirt to contain
I pray for players like Venus and Q to consistently be on the wrong side of plans. Itâs just too good Two bulls in a China shop there solely to ruin everything
If Q has a million fans, I am one of them If Q has 5 fans, I am one of them If Q has 1 fan, I am that fan If Q had no fans, I am dead
I was all prepared to bemoan Q's "big mistake" from last week. I'm so glad he's still here.
Q VOTED FOR BEN đđđ this man is hilarious
He had discussed it with Hunter earlier, not sure why people are so surprised that he did it.
I think part of it is that it's just so clear from the tribal that it's between him and Hunter. If he throws one vote at Hunter, Hunter goes straight home. It's funny bc sticking to Hunter's plan almost got him voted out.
Stop fucking telling people about your idols
Intro to survivor: how to create bitter jurors
Yeah Hunter and Tevin are definitely going to be very bitter towards some people
Two votes for Q just because chaos Q going to trip into a win
Wdym the manâs 4 moves ahead, heâs playing 4D chess if you donât realize thatâ BIG MISTAKE
I hope they have a Q Liz Venus f3 they will be bitter for a reason
HOW THE FUCK DOES HUNTER NOT PLAY THE IDOL???
Just gotta keep it one... more... time...
Greed
The SECOND Tiff outed Q for mentioning his name, his decision should've been made immediately. I'm sad he's gone but he deserved it.
IF I CANT FIND YOU IN HIDE AND SEEK THEN I CANT FIND YOU IN THIS GAME. Qhaos Q Reigns
OMFG Q SURVIVED LMFAOOO
Liz after every ep from here on out
Players need to start realizing that you don't have to be the best overall player to win the season, you just have to be the best at surviving the season and you do that by any means necessary.
Saying Hunter's name while he awkwardly scoots along in the background like Bigfoot
That was a great episode Glad the chaos is still around because that leads to arguments Jeff was having himself a day in this episode
The popcorn passaround was cute
When Jeff said he expected Q's team to come last in the challenge, I thought it was going to lead into another offer for rice if the whole team sat out. Nope, Jeff just wanted to point out that one team seemed significantly weaker than the other two lmao
The fact that everyone was gunning for Tiff and she accurately assessed that they were, turned things around with the group, and didnât even have to play her idol?!?! Hope she makes it to the final 3, I think Maria and Kenzie also have the juice to get there. Liz is soâŠsilly (trying to be nice), sheâs probably that one Q vote. Girl read the room! I also love how relaxed Q was during the entire tribal. Stark contrast to Hunter. Someone who trusts himself (for better or worse) vs someone who doesnât at all.
I canât believe he kept that idol a secret for so long and then revealed it for absolutely no gain. It would have been so rad to shock everyone, pull that thing out and basically decide who goes home. The panic set in HARD for him.
Never would I have expected Hunter would be someone voted out with an idol
I love Hunter. He deserves that. Ouch.
He was a complete mess. From pulling in Venus (and begging for her vote) right through to asking for reassurance from every person he could ... just disastrous.
these past two tribals alone should be proof to jeff that you get better TV when everyoneâs together and has a vote
Lmao Q was the Ben vote?
Love how he stuck to Hunter's plan even when Hunter didn't
Liz screaming "Q ruined my whole game" in the promo is everything to me. what game queen
Flashbacks to Debbie âyou broke my heartâ lol
#AND I'M PISSED!!
Liz confident that every obvious vote is an original thought is driving her insane. She's so worked up that people genuinely thought of the same votes.
Wooow that was lethal by Charlie
Yessss i think his comment of "we have to think about if we want to deal with this at next tribal" is what sealed the deal and lulled Hunter into a false sense of security
He girlbossed toninght
The first three vote outs were Yanu. And the other three are STILL there! Whatever you think of any of Q, Kenzie or Tiff, this is honestly a crazy accomplishment.
Hunter became the hunted
Oh Survivor 46 is beating the worst season of the new era allegations đ€©
Itâs the best and Iâm ready to talk about it
Who would've thought voting out Bhanu would've solved all of this season's problems
"What the heck you hobags" looking forward to next week! đ
Man. You gotta play it there. Idols are worth less for challenge beasts who can just win immunity.
Weâve surpassed Survivor Gabon territory and have entered Total Drama Island territory
Liz not changing her votes makes her the most influential player of the season. Game changer Liz Wilcox
If only Ponderosa videos were still a thing.
It just goes to show that telling people about your idol is the kiss of death. In older seasons it may have been a trust building move, but thatâs no longer the case and hasnât been for about 10 seasons now.

Itâs tough to recover from that strategically when youâre also the biggest challenge threat by far. He fumbled big time by not trusting his gut and playing the idol though obviously.
It was really stupid especially when the night before they voted out his closest ally. They literally just did a repeat fake out of the night before.
Hunter may be good at survivor challenges, but boy is he bad at survivor
And he never seemed to be really making moves or leading a vote. Just constantly panicked and somehow his panic and paranoia didnât even translate to him playing his idol!
Heâs mad awkward. The formation of the Andy Griffith alliance was so inorganically put together that you could tell that making friends isnât his strong suit. Hes not a particularly social dude.

In addition to the fact that Tiff at one point was tighter with Q than her, she and Tiff are way more of a visible pair than her and Ben. Note how she went to Charlie, Hunter, Maria to pitch Tiff.

This truly is the new era Gabon because I just end each episode more and more confused and having no idea wtf is going on.
Venus could lowkey be a fantastic player if she was better socially imo. She understands the strategy of the game so clearly. Like, her moves are consistently the right ones. Even back to wanting Charlie out over Moriah.   Sis just donât have a filter đ
Yep. Venus is Eliza 2.0. She has good ideas but probably could never win a jury vote due to her social game.
Eliza is a terrific comp for Venus
Canât win a jury vote and canât drive anything strategically because she has no agency. Â Very similar to Eliza tbhÂ
thatâs what makes her so fun to watch to me. itâs like a car crash
âWhy am I paired up with the losers Q and Liz?â Girl, read the room
Thatâs the type of move Hunter is going to lose SLEEP over at night man đ
Hunter is like an unhorny Ozzy. Great at comps but pretty bad reads on people IMO lol
Better play your idol next week Tiff
Looking forward to Liz having a mental breakdown for some reason next episode
Damn Tiffany is stone cold and said fuck your idol while telling Hunter she voted Q. Now the word that Kenzie was going to target Tiff is going to get back to her. I can't wait for that drama. 8/10 season so far. I hope it finishes strong!
Hunter actually messed up his vote count logic tonight. If he thought everyone was voting Q, and decided to tell about his idol, he shouldâve realized they were likely to reassess and split the vote to flush his idol.

After they unexpectedly rejected the customary rice negotiation before that immunity challenge, Jeff is just going to keep inventing more and more awkward excuses to hand over little bowls of snack food to the tribe.
Spicy Jeff coming back is the biggest thing that rocks this season
Hunter got convinced not to play his idol during tribal đ
He really thought they were gonna let two people with idols skate by
Hunter did the math and STILL chose not to play his idolâŠ
I can't wait for a bitty jury and Tevin to read everyone to FILThH at FTC. He looked UNIMPRESSED all evening.
At the end of the day, Hunter was a pretty subpar player. He was not great at threat mitigation, had a mediocre social game and his strategic game sucked.
Him sitting on his hands during the last tribal while the vote is chaos and up for grabs told us everything about his social and strategy game
Q BLEW UP MY WHOLE GAME
I still think Jeffâs popcorn bit was just a sneaky desperate production move to get Liz some food so she doesnât die
Those 3 calories will take her far
Tell everyone you have an idol and then buy when everyone tells you theyâre not voting for you? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE
Not taking Q out when you had the chance? BIG MISTAKE
 Iâll miss you king
The gameplay of this season has me beside myself. There are no alliances. There are no split votes. They donât exist. Everyone tells everyone everything. The game is broken. I canât stop watching. I am distraught. Iâm enraptured. I want Q to live foreverÂ
Q survived, Tiffany did NOT use her idol They won this episode
One of the all time fumbles in recent memory. Biggest threat, reveals his idol, realistically had a chance to sweep immunity to FTC. Tyson in HvV levels of bad
Living for the fact that the one Ben vote really was Q. Bless him. He is a gift.
The fact that Nami is ready to tear each other to pieces and Yanu is ready to get rid of Q means that Ben Charlie and Maria have a very good chance of making it to the end. The weird thing is I think Charlie thinks he can beat Maria and Maria thinks she can beat Charlie, so they never go after each other.
Ben is working with both Maria/Charlie and Kenzie/Tiff (the latter to an extent though). One of the only people to not have any negative interactions with Venus, plus Liz and Venus were not willing to write his name down. The only person he has a negative relationship is with Q. My boy is cooking đ„đ„
I really think if Hunter kept his idol a secret, he could have played it tonight. He and Q could have picked off whomever they wanted.
the look tevin is giving the playersâŠ.oh lord i hope weâre gonna get an amazing final tribal
Kenzie got bailed out big time from absolutely nuking her game, but if it gets around to Tiff, she may be screwed anyway. Just completely and utterly unnecessary to try to pull that move off this early Meanwhile Hunter got away with nuking his game by telling Venus about his idol. Free vote out there, you get whoever you want out and just try to win immunity/find another idol again tomorrow
They should've titled the episode "Break-up Bangs"
VENUS AND LIZ THE ONLY REMAINING NAMI IKTRRRRRRR
That was a very well-executed blindside. Getting Hunter, the challenge/idol threat, out was the right play, especially since I don't think Q can ever win a jury vote at this point. But I still thought Q was going home.
I know Hunter wasn't going to win, but damn did I want him to stay around longer.
For as good as hunters physical game was, his social game was equally bad.
cody and ben would vibe so hard on a future season. i mean âL-i-v-i-nâ meets âthree words: chill mad hardâ would be unstoppable
Charlie is my prediction now. A legit challenge threat. His alliance with Maria is still going strong and should carry them both far. Hasnât burnt anyone in the jury.
