Logan was extremely robbed, and I really feel bad for him. He had been applying since season 6 to be on a Rodent Long Terms season. Five seasons later, he was accepted, only to be voted out first due to an alliance made 10 minutes into the game. This alliance, consisting of Andrew, James, Squid, Denise, and Blaziken, and Josh, dominated the majority of the game, and Logan, along with Danielle, just happened to be on a starting tribe with 4/6 of their members. When they lost the first challenge, they chose to take out Logan, taking Danielle along as a number on the side. I wish I got to see Logan play more.

I don't really know too much about Libby. All I know is that she was blindsided unanimously at the first session when her tribe attended tribal council. I never really got to know her.

Sara did not deserve to play at all. She never responded to my dms, never attended sessions, and was fine with being expelled. I almost actually didn't cast her, as she was the 20th person I accepted.

Bella did not deserve to play in this season either. She never responded to my dms or attended sessions. In fact, she didn't even say anything when she was being expelled. Bella was a waste of a spot. I don't really have anything else to say about her.

Kiersten was actually a pretty decent player in comparison to the others on this season. She came in with a preexisting alliance with Tana, and I was excited to see how that would have played out. Sadly, Kiersten had a family emergency and had to pull herself from the season. I actually think she could have won if she had continued to play.

Josh was actually in a pretty good spot in the game. He was in Andrew's alliance of 6, and even had the numbers to get himself voted as one of the captains. Unfortunately for Josh, Blaziken turned on their alliance, gaining the votes to send Josh home. Josh was an okay player. From what I saw from him, he wasn't the best, but he wasn't the worst. I do wish I got to see more of him, though.

From what I saw, Jaxon actually wasn't too bad. He managed to gather enough votes to become one of the two captains. Unfortunately for him, Josh won the captain duel, and chose to put Jaxon on Upeksha with 4 members of Andrew's alliance and Danielle, who they were using for a number. Jaxon never stood a chance on that tribe and was just one of the many people this season who fell victim to Andrew's alliance.

Throughout Blaziken's brief time in the game, he did just enough to make him one of my favorites this season. He was one of the only people to take a shot at Andrew's alliance. Blaziken was very socially aware. He always seemed to know what was going on, and he definitely had a big chance at winning the season. I was rooting for him until he was voted out. He made all the right moves, and was just screwed over by an unlucky tribe swap. He actually might have been able to stay in the game if Theo hadn't lost power. Blaziken provided entertaining confessionals and attended every session he could come to even when he was voted out. Blaziken is one of the most dedicated castaways I've ever had, and I'd just like to thank him for brightening this dark season.

Although Denise was a part of Andrew's dominant alliance this season, she wasn't a very good player. She was extremely annoying, and almost was expelled at one point. Denise was actually the 21st person I accepted to play, but she ended up replacing someone else. She was mainly just a follower, and I wish she did a little more in the game.

TheoVuitton

What Theo did was absolutely unacceptable. Firstly, he was extremely inactive, barely even playing in the season. He was an absolute waste of a spot. Secondly, he and Matt quit as a session was starting, which forced me to cancel the session altogether. This was after rescheduling the session many times to accommodate people like Theo, who didn't even care about my long term. I don't really have anything else to say.

Matt quit without warning as a session was starting, causing me to have to cancel the session. I don’t really think there’s much else to say about him besides that he was a waste of a spot.

Although Dom wasn't very involved with the game, he was moderately active, which was nice. I didn't really have an opinion on Dom, as he didn't really do a lot. He did end up quitting the game, though.

Jamie was a very perceptive player. He almost always seemed to know what was going on. He was one of my favorite castaways this season. He always had detailed confessionals and was just fun to talk to in general. Jamie was actually in a very good spot for most of the game. He had quite a few allies and didn't go to too many tribal councils. Jamie even acquired two idols over the course of the game. Sadly, many of his allies quit, leaving him alone in the merge. He was blindsided with both idols in his pocket and became the first juror. I really wish he stayed for longer, and I could see him really thriving on a season without this many quitters.

Tana was expelled due to inactivity. Her inactivity had become unbearable. I was excited to see how her preexisting relationship with Kiersten would play out, but once Kiersten quit, there really wasn't anything to look forward to about Tana. She didn't really do much, and mostly was just in the background. Overall, Tana was pretty annoying.

Danielle started off the game on a tribe with 4/6 members of Andrew's alliance. She was extremely lucky that her tribe only lost twice, since if they lost again, Danielle would have been the next boot. She outlived Logan and Jaxon by becoming a side number to Andrew's alliance. Besides following them, Danielle didn't really do anything else. She wasn't too inactive, but she was just inactive enough to be expelled just before the finale.

To be honest, Andrew was kinda annoying throughout this season. He was just really unlikeable, and I didn't enjoy his overly cocky attitude. I feel like he played way too hard and was too much of a gamebot. He didn't really show any emotion. In all fairness though, he absolutely dominated the entirety of the game, and no one can argue with that. He put together an alliance of 6 ten minutes into the game that controlled almost everything. No one was really making an effort to turn on the alliance besides Blaziken. He also had side deals to keep him safe throughout the whole game. It seemed like everyone was close to Andrew. He only had 2 votes cast against him throughout the whole season. Although he wasn't my favorite, he deserves respect for the game he played. I do think that part of the reason Andrew went unchallenged was because 40% of the cast either quit or was expelled, but his game was impressive regardless.

This season went by extremely quickly due to the many expulsions and quits. Because of this, Daniel appeared as the frontrunner to win in the blink of an eye. To be honest, I thought Daniel's gameplay was brash and slightly erratic. I thought he would be voted out early in the merge because of this, but because of the many quits and expulsions, he was never vulnerable. Daniel had acquired two idols over the course of the game. The two idols, in addition to his immunity win at final 5, allowed him to control the final 5 vote. Since he took out Andrew, Daniel became the biggest threat. He could have won if he had kept his immunity streak up. Daniel also had pretty strong connections with everyone, even holding the majority at a point. From my point of view, Daniel had a very strong physical and social game, but was lacking a little bit of strategy.

To be honest, I'm not really sure what Squid did throughout his time in the game since he didn't use his confessional and wasn't a super outgoing player. Squid was a part of Andrew's alliance though. It seemed like Squid was more of a follower, although I'm not entirely sure. I feel like Squid's decision to stick with the alliance was his downfall.

Comedy played very strong social and strategic games, but he never got a chance to showcase them as he was immune for every single vote of the game. Comedy had immunity for every tribal council except for the final 5 tribal where Daniel played an idol on him. He gave excellent confessionals showcasing his strategic abilities. However, it seemed that nothing ever went right for him. Squid, Andrew, and James were all extremely close, so James had two guaranteed votes at the final tribal council. Jamie and Comedy also were rivals up until Jamie's elimination. Because of this, Comedy lost Jamie's vote. By the final tribal council, Comedy felt defeated. He was actually one of my favorites this season. Comedy is just a victim of circumstance. On a different season, Comedy would have done a lot better.

I feel like James was in Andrew's shadow for almost the entirety of the game. The two of them were together for everything except for the final 13 vote when James was exiled. Despite having many opportunities, I never saw James do anything besides follow Andrew's lead. James was a little bit inactive and never used his confessional. I just feel that he's a really lackluster winner.
