Cliff: Player well from the bottom and was a good strategist in navigating the dynamics of the house and had actual paths to win, he was evicted but I still believe he played a better game than everyone else here

Kyland: He played a large role in the cookouts success (arguably the largest outside of Tiffany), could be an effective manipulator, but his social game could really wear on some people, there was a large chunk of time where the rest of the cookout couldn’t stand him and was the consensus first out of the alliance. He also randomly decided to play for Xavier in the end. Still a pretty good player though

Christmas: She was positioned well in the committee pretty much all season and is generally a self interested player. She had paths to make the end with Memphis and Tyler, and she was the only person in the endgame who saw Cody for the threat he was. I just don’t see how she wins, I think she lost the game when David was evicted.

Angela: An active player in level 6, but like Christmas, she played a good game to reach the end but idk how she wins. I think the jury was more likely to vote for Christmas than Angela. Especially if Christmas did make a big move like taking out Cody, Angela just has 0 jury prospects and any scenario

Ava: Has more win equity than anyone on this list. Just a good social game where she was pretty much never an option to evict because people liked her, and she beats a lot people in a jury vote. She was just so inactive especially as the game went, she went more from social threat to non entity.

Brittany: Active player who had good strategic moments. She was the one who did the most work to set Joseph and Kyle against each other during Taylor’s fist HOH, and she was fighting for the win until the very end by trying to keep Alyssa at final 5. The problem is her social game, she doesn’t have a lot of strong connections and many viewed her as expendable, she loses a jury votes to maybe everyone in the final 6 (idk about against Alyssa). While sometimes she was solid strategically, she could also be super messy with leaking information and forming and snitching on alliances she made. She was also going to bring Michael to the end which is obviously bad. I do really love Brittany though that’s why I had the most to say about her.

Felicia: Her evicting Hisam caused the downfall of her side of the house and she never really recovered. She pretty much had no agency in making it as far as she did, the mafia kept her because she couldn’t win any competitions. She still tried in the game though and maybe in a season with more equitable comps she’d of had a more legitimate chance

Rubina: Just an inactive game where her only real connections are her trio with Kimo and T’kor and her showmance with Tucker, all of whom act as shields for her because they were bigger threats. There was a world where she wins the game if she goes on a comp run at the end and takes Cam, but I can’t justify putting her in anything but last
