Julie Chen ( KruidVatMan) - Julie was on the wrong side of the numbers. Her persuasive personality just couldn't save her this time. Sad to see her go, but with how the game started, she would have needed a miracle to save her.
Michelle O. ( Snick427) - Michelle was on the outs of her tribe, not aligning with anyone at all. The majority saw her as a wildcard, and took their loss as an opportunity to take her out. She was very charismatic and a hard worker, but people were scared of which way she would go in terms of alliances.
SWAP
Cameron ( SeanDouglas) - Cameron was definitely one of the more entertaining castaways this season. Sadly, like in his last season, the swap really screwed him over. He had been with the majority and could have gone deep, had the swap not occurred.
Betty ( Kgunzrok) - Betty was voted out due to her lack of strength in challenges, and the fact that they needed a stronger tribe. She was very endearing and very kind to everyone, but kindness could only get her so far in the game.
Ross ( Valero7) - It was a shame to see Ross go. He was very optimistic, and very charming. He was blindsided when Ellen played her idol, meaning he was the one sent packing. Like Cameron and many others, he could have gotten a lot farther, had the swap not come into play.
Ellen ( HelloCat) - After one huge blindside, people were getting worried about her strategic and social strength. Going back to tribal, Markiplier played his idol, negating the votes casted against him by Ellen and Sia, ultimately blindsiding Ellen.
SWAP
Finn ( Latisha0987) - The final victim of the swap, Finn. Nick, Sia, and So were in the minority on the newly formed Bayon tribe, but at tribal, Finn was completely blindsided, only Sia voting with him. Everyone had seen his villainous gameplay his last season, and weren't willing to take the risk of letting him make the merge.
MERGE/JURY
Nick ( SeanDouglas) - Nick was seen as a physical threat, and for playing the game very hard from the first day. Zoella won immunity, basically sealing his fate. At tribal council, only his ride or die partner So voted with him. Everyone else, even his previous allies blindsided him, and So.
Shawn ( SeanDouglas) - There were only two reasons that Shawn was voted out. First, So Kim won immunity. She would have been the target but she was safe that night. Additionally, Zoella became the new target but she played her idol, blindsiding Shawn. He was a physical threat, and at the top of Zoella's hit list.
Ariana ( NicoleF) - Ariana was playing a fairly decent game, not placing herself in the spotlight but after So won immunity again, she was the next victim. G-Dragon was able to steal the vote of a castaway, and he chose Kelley who was shown voting for Ariana. All of her allies turned on her, except for Peyton.
Sia ( Blazer44) - After Markiplier won immunity, to some, the vote was pretty clear. Take out Peyton, Ariana's closet ally. Markiplier however reunited the original Bayon tribe and took her out, while Peyton played his idol. The idol was essentially wasted seeing as majority of the votes were for Sia.
Zoella ( Kgunzrok) - Zoella was playing a very fearsome game. People like Shawn and Ariana, were victims of her reign. She had been in a very good position, until So won immunity again. The castaways began to scramble around, and the vote came down to a 3 way tie between Jacob, Peyton, and Zoella. G-Dragon played his idol on Jacob, leaving the vote a tie between Zoella and Peyton. Two power players from Bayon. So Kim, betrayed her Takeo alliance by voting Zoella instead of Peyton. On the revote, Markiplier and Michelle M. switched their vote from Jacob, to Zoella.
Jacob ( Latisha0987) - When both Peyton and Nick won immunity, the target was clearly So. Nicolas and G-Dragon were angry at her for lying to them about the previous vote and decided she was untrustworthy. While those two and Jacob voted against her, So reunited the post swap Bayon tribe alliance. They had the majority, and decided Jacob was the most threatening.
G-Dragon ( Wuau) - Michelle M. won immunity, while the two sides were clearly divided from the previous tribal. At the vote, So joined back with Nicolas and G-Dragon, to take out Markiplier. Sadly, their three votes weren't enough, seeing as the other side had the majority and after a tie, G-Dragon was sent packing.
Markiplier ( GHRocky100) - People were beginning to see how strategic Markiplier was being. He had made a lot of friends, won a few challenges, and was really playing strategically. Nicolas won immunity, and the two targets were So and Markiplier. So used her persuasiveness to sway the majority into blindsiding Markiplier and in a unanimous vote, he was taken out.
Michelle M. ( HelloCat) - Michelle was another castaway who was playing an Under The Radar type game. After Peyton won immunity, So was being targeted. Once again, she somehow managed to convince everyone else to vote out Michelle and in another unanimous vote, Michelle was eliminated.
Kelley ( Latisha0987) - The robbed player of the season! Everyone in the final four was very deserving of the title Sole Survivor. So won the final immunity, and decided that loyalty was most important, teamed back up with Nicolas in tying the vote between Nicolas and Kelley. Since no one was willing to change their vote, both Kelley and Nicolas competed in a fire making challenge, where Nicolas beat Kelley, causing her to place fourth. One reason for voting her over Peyton was that she had more friends on the jury, and played a more outgoing game.
FINALE
Nicolas ( Zombiekiller2802) - He got one vote, which was from Ariana. He played a fairly decent game, but he wasn't in power most of the time and didn't really build many social connections. It did take a lot, to get to the final three with this hectic of a post merge and Nicolas pulled it off so he does deserve some credit.
Peyton ( PizzaWithCookirs) - Peyton had a pretty good physical game, and he stayed safe for the most part. At one point in time, he had become the main target, but he managed to avoid elimination. He won a couple of immunities and bonded with multiple people. He got two votes. They were from Jacob and Michelle M.
So Kim ( CrimsonEnnui) - So really mastered all elements of the game as demonstrated throughout the season. At the first tribe swap, there was no majority on her tribe, but after her ally Cameron was eliminated, she found herself in the minority. After the second tribe swap, she managed to stay alive long enough to make it to the merge. When her closest ally Nick was eliminated, she became the next target. So won many immunities, saving herself numerous times from being eliminated. At the final few tribals, she was able to sway the people that had been against her to vote out one of their own. At the final 4, the move to take out Kelley over Peyton paid off seeing as she won.
