For an incredibly smart guy, Ed is dumb. Horacio and Kyland would have definitely taken him to the end no matter what had he just sided with them. Jay's alliance showed their true colors last week when it comes to him and if it weren't for Horacio/Kyland constantly coming back, he would be number 1 on the hit list. Now he'll be targeted by both sides. The smartest move Nurys could have done was to save ZaZa and let Olivia go home. She contributes nothing. Their alliance had a great chance at winning inidividual dailys and taking power from there. I get it but Olivia is worthless.

So Jay is allowed to smirk/smile but Kyland isn't? Lol at Jay saying he will get physical. Nurys 100% should have saved Zara. Ed, your alliance has said your name. Ugg

In hindsight, that's true. But at that point they didn't know if one person came back or two (or some other angle even). She should've saved Horacio IMO. He's the best guy in the house by a mile.

Also, I agree with this:
quote:

Horacio knows he can beat every girl and every guy besides Ed and Kyland no matter the challenge. Maybe Emmanuel for some challenges.He is too nice about it, but he’s right and he knows it.

BUT...you can't play that game and keep going into elimination every single time. It never works out well and eventually you will run into something that you aren't good at or if you just have an off day, and you will go home.
quote:

With this format, I don’t see how Jay gets sent in.

Also agree with that. As much as I hate Jay, he and Michelle have played the game well so far and kept themselves VERY protected and cushioned. That's another reason I don't like this format of save you, you save him, he saves her, etc. Jay will NEVER be at the bottom of that totem pole.

And Ed will likely learn the hard way where he stands in his alliance. You aren't a top 3 dude in it (Jay, Emmanuel, Corey). Likely not even top 4 if you consider James. So at best you're 5th just ranking the guys (and obviously he was behind Asaf as well). And most of the girls are also above you as well. Whereas he could join with Horacio and Kyland and be top three and they can all plan on running the final together.

It's just not smart. On top of them already having said your fricking name.

1000%

Ed and Nurys both had chances to really strengthen their alliances. If you get a team of Ed, Horacio, Kyland, Nurys, and Zaza, that team is almost certainly gonna have a winner each week. You really only have to worry about Emmanuel.

I’m super bummed Z went home. I don’t think there’s another girl in the house who even gets over that wall, let alone doing it in the mud. She’s a beast, sucks she got sent home.
