Here’s the thing…yeah Brad and Sierra’s side is down on numbers. But they’re the ones with the 3 idols (from Troyzan and Tai). So this may be one of those pot shot rankings. Here we go.
10. Andrea Boehlke- Andrea has the numbers now, but I don’t think she 100% has Zeke’s trust, nor does she trust him. Any sort of crack in an alliance could send it spiraling into doom. Here’s the thing…we saw WEEKS ago a scene where Troyzan said he didn’t trust Andrea. Why would they include this scene? This is finally the week where Troyzan’s side is down in numbers, he’s going to need to play the idol, he’s coming off of an immunity win…Who is he going to take out with this idol? The answer: Andrea.
9. Sierra Dawn-Thomas- Sierra is still public enemy #1 on Andrea’s side. But Sierra has some nice protection coming from those idols from Troyzan and Tai. If Troyzan or Tai wants to look after themselves, Sierra may be on her way out, especially because she is down in numbers, but things change so easily in this game, and maybe this week taught Sierra to not be so comfortable, and now she can take a back seat and start to let someone else drive. She’s still the biggest target in a lot of people’s eyes. She has three idols within her alliance, she just needs to make sure they play them for her.
8. Zeke Smith- Zeke’s sloppy game play last episode may have secured Zeke at least 4 more weeks in this game. Zeke screwed his own game. No one wants to award a flip flopper (as they probably learned from Tai Trang in Kaoh Rong), so I think Aubry, Michaela, Andrea, and Cirie all become targets before Zeke does. They can cut him at any time. But Zeke will always stay low because he is unpredictable, but the difference between him and Michaela is that Michaela still votes on a loyal basis, whereas Zeke tends to roam week to week.
7. Michaela Bradshaw- Michaela is getting on lots of people’s nerves, and I feel bad for her. I don’t see any scenario where she wins. But maybe what she’s doing is buying her more time. She’s not appearing as any sort of threat. As annoying as she is, Brad has said time and time again that there are much bigger threats than Michaela.
6. Sarah Lacina- Sarah was in the power position, and made a great move. Her edit is setting her up for either a win or one of the biggest downfalls ever. For that, she’s right here in the middle. I really don’t know if Brad and Sierra will try to get her out now, or try to smooth talk her into joining back up with them. They might have to rope her back in, otherwise, they’re doomed. Sarah is valuable in this game, but emerging as a threat. Wild card.
5. Aubry Bracco- Props for Aubry for jumpstarting the Debbie boot. Even though she did make the move to cut Debbie lose, I think more people will be mad at Sarah for flipping than Aubry for targeting Debbie. Aubry still has no true solid alliance, so I think there are bigger fish to fry. But then again, she has no solid alliance, and people may want to take her out like they did Hali for those reasons. Like Sarah, she’ll be a wild card depending on how people respond to the Debbie boot and who they blame.
4. Cirie Fields- Cirie should be targeted, but people just see Andrea as the bigger strategic threat. That is awesome news for Cirie. Awesome news. I find it funny how Cirie wasn’t targeted after that incredibly powerful moments. Do people not realize that if she makes it to the end, she wins in a landslide? She really is a mind bender, and needs to write a book for people to learn by.
3. Brad Culpepper- People are still more threatened by Sierra than they ever will be of Brad. Why? I have no clue. But it looks like Brad just has to keep laying pretty low, and wait for the end to make a huge move.
2. Tai Trang- People still don’t know about Tai’s two idols. Tai lost a close ally in Debbie, but as long as he lays low, he will remain off of the target. Tai is playing a good game right now. He just needs to keep it all up.
1. Troyzan Robertson- He won immunity, he got a hug with Jeff, and while his alliance is now down on numbers, Troy has an idol. This is perfect because now he can finally use it and even out the numbers again. Who does he use it to get out? The edit suggests Andrea, but honestly, we’d be happy to see him idol out anyone, considering we really haven’t seen the big, showy, flashy Troyzan make any big moves yet. He’s been fading in the background but hopefully he’ll win more immunities and have an awesome idol play soon. With his side lacking in numbers, I think this will be a big episode for Troyzan to maybe make that move we’ve been waiting for.
I feel a lot less confident about pretty much everyone except for Troyzan and Tai. So, as for who goes home, Andrea, Zeke, Michaela, and Sierra have been the multiple-mentioned targets in this game. Sarah and Aubry haven’t been targeted, but they made a move that may upset people. Cirie seems to actually be pretty safe, as does Brad, but really anything is possible. I just can’t stop thinking about the scene in episode 2 or 3 where Troyzan said how he didn’t trust Andrea and would like to see her go (simultaneously finding his idol in the same episode). Editing sometimes foreshadows, sometimes doesn’t. I say it does in this case, or at least for prediction sake.
Here’s the thing…yeah Brad and Sierra’s side is down on numbers. But they’re the ones with the 3 idols (from Troyzan and Tai). So this may be one of those pot shot rankings. Here we go.
