Preseason Cast Thoughts

[robbie]

Lidell

Overall, I think this has to be my favorite tribe! It has my two preseason  favorites on it - Leanna and Lance.  These two are some of the most iconic players I have seen play in terms of personality/strategy. I think they're both about to understand the assignment and deliver. 👏 On top of that, we have my two favorite newbies in the cast - Hugo and Sarah! Sorry Brenton. I am rooting for you though buddy. Hugo was easily my favorite male interview and Sarah was easily my favorite female interview!  Although those two were my favorite interview, Brenton was another preseason favorite of mine. I love seeing new players come into the community. I will always root for the new player, and I really hope to see Brenton thrive on this tribe! The only thing I worry about with this tribe is A. Experience. Will Leanna and Lance's previous experience be enough to bond them? Will their previous experience be enough to lead this tribe? and B. Social ability. Will the newer players know how much goes into this game? Will they put in what the others are putting in or will the rest of the players run circles around them? I like to give newbies the benefit of the doubt since you truly never know how much time and passion they're going to put into it. This might feel natural to them and they might just dive in head first.  I think Sarah will be the one to watch on this tribe! I have so much faith in this tribe and I really want to see them do well. Do I think the winner of the game is on this tribe? No. I would love that, but I think experience will be the downfall of Lidell.  Only time will tell though! PROVE ME WRONG! 

Leanna: Lilz! Shimmy! Queen! You know I LOVE YOU!! I love you as a friend. I love you as a player. I love you as a person! I know there was some talk about your previous experience in games, but I dont think that defines you as a player. I have experienced what you can do in games first hand. I think you bring a lot of passion. I think you bring a lot of insight. I think you will bring a lot of fun to  this season. I am so glad and honored to be hosting you for my first prod experience. I know you'll be a force to be reckoned with, no doubt! I think you're a social threat. I think you're a physical threat, and you know the game so well, I know you'll be a strategic threat as well!  I am so excited to see you play this season, and I think no matter what, happens, you're going to bring so much to this cast. A woman is definitely winning All Out season 5, and if it's you, I would be so happy! I think you have what it takes! Secure the bag Shimmy! Secure the mutha frikkin bag sis! 

Biggest Strength: Experience
Biggest Weakness: Her polarizing personality. I personally love Lilz, but I dont know if others love her right away. I feel like it's one way or the other with Leanna. I'm not sure why she rubs people the wrong way, but I feel like others (mainly girls -  actually some guys too) just dont love her at first. I think if they take the time to get to know her, take down the wall they have built up against her,  they will love her! I felt the same way when I played with her. I wasn't feeling her at first (because she seemed like the queen of the tribe and I just swapped into a minority and felt fucked - I was a little biased),  but once I got to know her - I thought she was the sweetest person! I think she needs to work on doing that with people too though. Put in the work with people so that their first impression of her  isn't their only impression of her! Get on them calls girl.  Sing to them 😂. Let them see Leanna,  not shimmy! They will love you! 


Sarah: I'm probably the most excited to see you play Sarah in the whole game! Honestly, I STAN! Right off the bat! I think you have such a great strategy coming into this game. I think you have a dope personality. I can see your passion! I can feel how bad you want to do well, and believe me when I say, WE ARE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU!! If there's any chance that you go out early this season, I'm quitting prod. PERIOD. I couldn't take that emotionally! You're so good and such an easy player to root for! As a newbie, I dont think the VL sees it just yet, but prod is behind you 1000%. You were easily an auto cast when you applied/interviewed! Do I think you're going to win this game? I'd love that, but realistically,  I dont see it. I see you making jury for sure. I think this is the game that you will do well enough that you're proud of the game that you played, but take what you learned from this game and be ready to go into your second game and capitalize on those mistakes. If you dont win your second game, you'll for sure win your third or fourth. It's so hard to tell, and if you win this season of All Out, I will actually write you an apology  because you'd deserve it. This is not me rooting against you. This is me  trying not to be misted by your greatness and thinking logically. You remind me so much of Olivia,  it's crazy! She's a legend,  and I think you very much give "Olivia" in terms of your social prowess, strategic views, and passion for the game! There's no way  you dont do well in this game! Just based on your interview and your energy in your prod chat, I could see you winning! I just think there's a learning curve that comes with ORGS, and if you dont know what to expect or look for, it's hard. Not impossible, but hard.  I do have faith in you and it feels odd to even doubt you because you're so good, but I wonder...is it too good to be true?...nah lol you're hella dope and I'm rooting for you! Easily my favorite female applicant this season (Don't tell any of the others that I said that 😉😂 ) Prove me wrong and secure the W sis! A woman is definitely winning All Out season 5, and if it's you, I dont think any of us would be surprised! We Stan newbies! We Stan strong players! We Stan the energy and passion that we know  you're going to bring to the game! THIS IS A SARAH STAN ACCOUNT.
P 👏E👏R👏I👏O👏D👏 

Biggest Strength: Personality, Passion
Biggest Weakness: Lack of Experience 

Hugo: Hugo! My boy! Not gonna lie, when I saw your application, I kinda wrote you off. I clicked on your Facebook page and you looked 12 😂 (Update the profile pic bro 😂). Then we got on call, and I was like Whoa! You were so much fun. You brought so much energy, personality, and character to your interview. I left the call and I was like okay...I'm a Hugo STAN! You were easssssiiiillllly one of my favorite interviews this season - if not my favorite!  I think your previous ORG history is going to help you out a lot. You have a game or two under your belt so you know what to expect, and I think that's good to have coming into this game. You can play the newbie card and pretend you dont know what you're doing since I dont think anybody would ever find your previous game.  I love how "cocky" you are, but it's not a cringe cockiness that annoys the hell out of everybody. I think the fact that you laugh right after you say stuff like "God I look good" is so hilarious to me. You're going to be one to watch this season, and I'm here for it! I'm the president of the Hugo Stan club lmao and I hope to see you do well. Do I see you winning the game? Idk man. It's hard to  say because I  love this cast so much. I'll say it again though, you were one of my favorite interviews! Either you or Rizo. I hope that you two meet in the game because I know you'll hit it off. Honestly, you'll vibe with anybody in the game because you are a vibe in general! I hope you're able to convert your livelihood to American time zones. I think if your tribe mates are able to get on call with you and keke it up, there's no way you dont make merge. If you make merge, I could see you making it deep in the game. I hope your previous org experience comes into play and you're a beast at the challenges, otherwise you might be too likable and get taken out. Nobody wants to see that. 

Biggest Strength: Personality
Biggest Weakness:Time Difference 

Brenton: Brenton. Brenton. Brenton. I really am not sure how you're going to do, but I'm so excited to have you this season! I think you're one of our more quiet players but if the right person sees value in having that “loyal soldier” as an ally that you claim you want to be, you could go deep! I’d personally love an ally like you in the game if I were playing, but I'm not in the game. Will others feel the same way? Idk. I'll say that I am rooting for you and I really hope you do well! I hope that your first ORG experience goes well and that you're able to be the social butterfly that you want to be. I personally dont see the social butterfly aspect based on pregame chats and your interview, but I hope that you are a social butterfly. Maybe you're in the cocoon part of the butterfly stage, and I hope that when the game starts that you spread your wings and fly 😂. On a serious note, I think you're a great guy. I can tell you're very kind and you're a super fan. My fear for you is that you dont realize how much time/effort really goes into an ORG, and I fear that you wont realize it until it's too late. I think you'll be playing checkers while others are playing chess, and I think that's just a difference that will come with experience. A lot of first time  players dont realize how much goes into these games, and I fear that will be the case for you. My hope for you is that since you're such a survivor fan, that you'll come in, love the experience, and your social game will take off. I have  the  same worry for you that I have for Lance, that when you're away at your camp this summer,  you wont have the time to put in the much needed work with people and be an "easy" boot due to activity and challenge performance. I hope that I'm wrong and you come in here and truly shine! I love seeing newbies do well, and again, I hope your first ORG experience is a great one, so prove me wrong Brenton! I'm rooting for you!

Biggest Strength: Love for Survivor 
Biggest Weakness: Not understanding how much goes into these games


Lance: Spicy Dicy King Lance. Man oh man! I was so pumped when I saw you apply! You know how bad I wanted to see you come back to the ORG world. Some people are turned off by your ego and arrogance, but I see it as confidence. I see a person who has proved that they can navigate a game socially, physically, and strategically and do well at it. I personally love it. If you have it, flaunt it. When I first saw you play a live game, I was like who is this guy? How can I get him to play All out?!  Fast forward to applications opening for All Out 5,  and you're here, and I'm PUMPED! I know a live game and an ORG are different, but I am confident that your skills will be transferable. There has been some concern with you potentially being inactive and missing time for a live game at the end of the season, and I reallllly hope that's not the case. I know your heart is in Live games, but I hope you meant it when you said you signed up because you have the time  to play. If you prove that you're here to play and here to win, just know I am rooting for you 110%! I believe that if you're here and you play this game, you're going to play 👏 this 👏 game 👏. You had us all hype when. you interviewed, and I cant wait to see you play this game! Let's get it Lance!

Biggest Strength: Everything
Biggest Weakness:  Scheduling


Potential Alliances: 
Power Duos:  
Leanna/Lance 🤞 - would be so dope.
Leanna/Sarah  - almost guaranteed.
Leanna/Hugo - Flirtmance?
Lance/Brenton - Bromance
Brenton/Hugo - Bromance?
Sarah/Brenton - Newbie alliance
Lance/Sarah - The Queen to his King?  🤞 


Trios: 
Leanna/Sarah/Hugo - I feel like is the most obvious potential trio here
Leanna/Sarah/Lance - Could run this tribe and this game.
Sarah/Hugo/Brenton - Newbie alliance?
Brenton/Hugo/Lance - Guys alliance?  🤮 

Potential Enemies:
Lance/Leanna?
Brenton/being active?
Hugo/American Timezones? 

Leader of the Tribe: Leanna/Lance...

Most Likely to find an advantage: 
Leanna
Hugo

Most  likely to be first boot: 
Brenton
Lance - for inactivity? I  honestly dont think this will be the case, but I have to take it into consideration. 


Game Predictions: 
Here's what I'd love to see. I'd love for Leanna to be at the head of this tribe with Lance. Sorry  newer players, I'm a little biased. I want Lance to have his queen as he described in his video and for it to be Leanna and they run this  tribe together! I dont want this tribe to go to tribal though because I'll say it again. Lidell is by far my favorite tribe! So that's scenario 1: King Lance & Queen Leanna come together and run this tribe/game. Do I think that will happen? No. lol

I always say, "expect the worst,  pray for the best." On the other side of that eager hoping, I am worried that Leanna will feel like she has to step up to the plate and take a leader role on this tribe when she finds out that 3 of her tribe mates are new or newer to the community,  and Lance, being the confident person that he is, wont like taking direction and two will clash and it will be a Lance VS Leanna thing fighting for power;  and sadly I think Leanna wins  this one. I  think Sarah sides with. Leanna no matter what. I think Hugo and Leanna really hit it off,  no matter what,  and I'm not sure what Brenton will do! He's the joker in this deck of cards 😂. I'm curious to see if Lance and Hugo would hit it off with both of them being super confident in themselves. Will that attract one another or turn each other away? I guess we will find out folks. 


Prejury VS. Jury: (Sorry guys. -  this is just based on reading the rest of the VL and your activity/excitement so far: 
Leanna: Jury
Sarah: Jury
Hugo: Jury
Brenton: Prejury
Lance: Prejury (Please prove me and the rest of the VL wrong 🤞)

Tulgey

Coming into this game, I personally think Tulgey will be the "weakest" tribe. Dont get my wrong, I think everybody on this tribe is GREAT! I want to see everybody on this tribe do well, but when it comes to challenges and what not, I dont see this tribe doing well for some reason? I think this tribe has strong players, but do I see a strong tribe? I dont. I think either Tulgey or Dinah will go to tribal first, and it honestly makes me sad because I love both of these tribes. I hope that Felix is able to take a leader role here and lead them to victory.
This is the one tribe that I really dont know what is going to happen? The dynamic of this tribe is so interesting and I can't wait to see how it plays out. Do I see a winner on this tribe? Honestly....I do 👀. Guess you have to keep reading to see who that winner pick is.

Aleem: Are you my winner pick? Sorry Aleem, you are not my friend. I hope that you have fun, but I dont think you're taking the crown buddy. I think you're dope though. You're one of our more mild guys on the cast and honestly, I love it. I feel like mild has a "negative connotation" to it, but I dont mean that in a negative way. I mean that you're not a big personality and there's nothing wrong with that. In fact, I think it's going to keep you out of the forefront of people's minds. I dont know much about you, but the people who know of you from prior game experiences love you! I think there's a reason for that, and I'm so excited to see what you bring to the game. I think your mild nature will either take you deep in the game, or people wont gravitate towards you and vote you out because of it. I think in a group setting, you're not going to be the "main character" which again isn't a bad thing. I think you're going to capitalize in a one on one setting. I think that's where Aleem shines, and I'm here for it. I just hope that you put in the time. I hope that your personal life still thrives, but I wonder if it's going to take precedence over this game and people might not get the time that they want with you. On the flip side, your partner also has played a game, so I'm sure they get it. Maybe that's not even a factor in this game and he will go all out? Who knows. If Aleem puts in the time, I easily see him getting top 4, no doubt. I hope Aleem does as well as the viewers want him to do. I low-key have my doubts, but I'm rooting for him!

Biggest Strength: Lowkey Personality - perfect for a UTR game.
Biggest Weakness: Time? I honestly done know what your weakness is. I hope it's not time and you ball out this season! Dont have much to go off of, but we will see.

Alicia: Are you my winner pick? Yes...yes you are. I think Alicia is dope. She's a Lakers fan. She's a Marvel Fan. She's a hooper! She's everything I'd want in an ally! I'm just confused? Why is she always the bridesmaid, never the bride? Second place twice? No ma'am. Not this time. Idk how you got to second place twice and didn't get the dub. Is it your FTC performance? Is it how you're sending the people to jury? Sis watch this video from Cirie. It's basically made for you lol! You know what to do. I need you to just do it! If it aint broke, dont fix it! I need you all in, and going all out. Just tweak that last part of your game. Act like it's the 4th quarter and close out the game like Kobe! lol okay...enough of that. I have so much faith in Alicia. My only fear is that she will over correct and make a mistake that will tank her game. What worked in your first game that you got second, or even second might not work here. I feel like it's a good bases to go off of, but be loose with it if that makes sense. I hope that she treats this cast like a brand new cast and assesses the situation accordingly. There's going to be times where she can say, "I've seen this...I know what to do. Or oh, it's stupid to split a vote here." and use that kind of mentality when it comes to "If it aint broke, dont fix it." But you can't treat this cast like there's a blueprint and every game is cookie cutter, which I dont think she will do. I dont know what to expect from Leash, but I know she's going to do well! That's a fact. I see her being able to bond with the girl, kick it with the guys, compete with the best, and outshine the rest while maintaining a good threat level. My fear is that others will know of her success and come for her edges because of it. "Oh she always gets to the end." - a hater. Aht aht. Dont come for Leash sis. Issa queen! Issa winner! STAN ALICIA FOR CLEAR SKIN!!! GET VACCINATED TO PREVENT COVID! ❤️

Biggest Strength: Everything
Biggest Weakness: Trying to dumb herself down (her words not mine) and potentially being clocked for it! We know a bad bish when we see one! Own that sis! 👏


Carly: Carly. Carly. Carly. Coming into this thing, I....wait before I even say that, I'll say this. I LOVE YOUR PERSONALITY! I think you're so nice, so personable, and such a vibe. As a person, dope. In an ORG....idk? This is what I was going to start off saying...in an org setting, I (as a player) would have a love hate relationship with how nice and personable you are. From a prod standpoint...You're dope. Hands down. No questions asked. Unproblematic Kween Shit. As a player, I think I'd worry about you. Is she too nice? Can somebody humanly be this kind? Is she playing me? Is she being fake? That would be what's going through my head personally. It's almost like it's too good to be true. I do think you come off as genuine, and you're a very sweet person, but I wonder if the others will think how I might think if I met you in a game and you were your fun, sweet, bubbly self. It's giving teacher. It's giving auntie (the cool auntie). It's giving "the person that you run into in public that is going to stop you and talk for sure". (This is all speculation from your video). Again, in person...I'd love that. In game, I dont know if I'd trust that. While I am a firm believer in, "be yourself regardless of if people like you or not. If they dont, it's their problem, not yours..." I hope that people dont see you as being "too social" and try to target you for that. I think it works in a Big Brother game where you want to be well liked so that you dont go on the block and if you do others dont want to vote you out, but in a Survivor game, it could be your detriment. I hope that you're aware that you might come off as a social threat and dial it back in a group setting and let people see your personality in a one on one setting. I think you're smart and you're going to do so well! I can see you being the social KWEEN on this tribe and I'm sooo here for it. I just hope Felix isn't threatened by it and doesn't come for those edges sis. 👀 Beware! 🚨

Biggest Strength: Personality
Biggest Weakness: Social Threat? I hope you're calm, cool, and collected on tribe calls and show them your fun bubbly self on 1 on 1s! You dont have to be the center of attention (not saying you are that way...I just personally think that's a good mentality coming into the game), but with how personable you are, people might expect you to lead the convo and you might naturally do so....dont do it sis.


Erin N: I'm so excited to see Erin play this game. Erin is in the Brenton boat where I have no clue how they're going to play this game. HOWEVER, I do think socially, Erin will be a little more social than Brenton? That's just based on the interviews though. Brenton could surprise the hell out of all of us, but on the flip side, so could Erin. Going into the season,  I think Erin will be similar to Aleem. Quiet, calm, cool, and collected. I hope that Felix will take Erin N under his wing and show her the way! Do I think she will gravitate towards Felix? Not really. I see her liking Carly maybe (but wont everybody lol)? I have no clue with this tribe honestly. I know know one things for sure, they better protect Erin at all costs. Period! 👏 I worry that the competitions might be a shock for Erin, but I think if she puts in the time that these kinds of games require, I could see her playing the perfect UTR game. I think she and Aleem will vibe because they have the same calmness demeanor to me. They remind me of that meme where the dog is sitting in a burning building with fire around him. 😂 I think with this being both of their first ORGS, they will be able to keep up with each others pace. The only thing I fear for Erin is that she's too nice? If she can come out and be diabolical behind closed doors and be ready blindside people, OMG....I would Stan - I mean I already do, but even more. Like....I have a Stan card, but if she was to cut throats, burn bridges, lie, and snatch edges...I'd upgrade this Stan card to a platinum version; one of those heavy ones that's metal and not just plastic.  I think her calm demeanor will keep her safe in the game. I dont see Erin N being seen as a threat in any way shape or form, I just hope that she doesn't get swap screwed. If she does, good game Erin. Thank you for playing. I dont see her surviving a swap minority, but if she sticks with the majority, she's easily making merge. Could be a hot take, but I'm going to stand by my word on this one.

Biggest Strength: New Player - I know it might not seem like a good thing, but I think it makes her the perfect candidate for an ally! (praying Felix sees value in Erin as a newbie and takes her under his wing, but I fear he will choose Aleem)
Biggest Weakness: Challenges. If you dont know what to expect, sometimes it's hard to be good at Challenges, and sometimes you really need to win a challenge. Dont worry girl, I didn't win a physical challenge the first time I played. I was confused asf...how tf do you bounce a pencil into a cup? I still dont know, but good luck. 😊 


Felix: Felix oh Felix. I think you're easily the most strategic male in the game...actually I think you may be the most strategic person in the game. I had mixed feelings about you coming into this game. (I'd like to add, I dont think anything bad of you. I just dont know if you're going to be the villain that I hate because you're taking out my favorites, or if you're going to be the strategic master mind that makes great moves that I absolute love) Anyway...I  still have mixed feelings and I'm not sure what to expect from you, but I'm here for it. Karen helped clear up some of my mixed feelings on the preseason round table, so be sure to check that out. She's lovely and had some great things to say about you. She actually jumped on just to give you and Leanna props on who you are as players and people. I actually loved that. #StanKaren...now back to Felix. I want to see you do well, and I love how strategic you are, but you come off as a game bot. I know you said that you want to change it up this season and just have fun. Do I see that happening realistically? I dont if I'm being honest. I hope that you do have fun! I just think with you checking who liked the posts , who joined the group etc, even before the game started, I dont see you changing and just playing to have fun. I honestly love it though. Idk how that would help you, but I love the effort and dedication.  I feel like when you said you were going to change, you were referring to not being mean, which I love; but I do think you're going to play hard. Is that a bad thing? No. Not at all . I want to see you go all out. I want to see you do really well and pull out some crazy moves. I think you saying that you want to change it up is what makes me feel conflicted. I want to see you own your game. I want to see the crazy Felix that I heard all about. I keep referring to you as the "heart breaker", "The draft killer", the "The Favorite slayer". That's the Felix I want to see. I want to see the Felix that pulls a move out of his ass and it sticks lmao. If you do change it up though, I'll be happy to see how you change it up. I dont know how you played before, but I'm looking for the Felix that will show everybody who is claiming to be a villain this season what a real villain is. 😈

Biggest Strength: Strategist
Biggest Weakness: Wanting to change it up! Dont do it....I want you coming for edges this season. Find your ride or die and be loyal to them and only them.


Potential Alliances:
Power Duos:
Aleem/Erin - The quiet cuties
Alicia/Aleem - Sporty Spice 😂
Felix/Erin: New School Meets Old School
Felix/Aleem: Ned School Meets Old School
Carly - Anybody (Queen shit)

Trios:
Carly/Alicia/Erin: The trio we want to see.
Alicia/Felix/Aleem/Carly: (I know that's 4...I can count): The Sports people....Does Erin watch sports? Idk. Just throwing this out there in case I'm right, I can say "I cAlLeD iT" lol 

Potential Enemies:
Felix/Carly?
I literally dont know with this tribe. What's about to happen? Lordy...

Leader of the Tribe:
Felix?
Carly?

Most Likely to find an advantage:
Felix
Alicia?

Most likely to be first boot:
Aleem - Sorry bro
Erin? - I doubt it.

Game Predictions:
Literally no freaking clue. I honestly dont know, but I really cant wait to find out.


Prejury VS. Jury: (Sorry guys. - this is just based on reading the rest of the VL and your activity/excitement so far:
Aleem: Prejury
Alicia: Jury
Carly: Jury
Erin N: Prejury - I dont actually think Erin will go perjury, but if you all go to tribal twice, it will either be Aleem and Felix or You and Aleem. Just my thoughts.
Felix: Jury

[robbie]

Dinah

I cant tell if Dinah is my favorite tribe or Lidell....Hmmmm. Either way...I absolutely love this tribe. This tribe overall is the most aesthetically pleasing. The variety. The flavor. The personality. The charm. The dedication. It's all here on the tribe. Dinah checks all boxes and I pray that they dont go to tribal. Lord, I'd be DEVASTATED to see any of them go. Dont do it Becky. I need Dayle, Tushara, Rizo, and Anna Lynn to put together their previous experience and figure out these challenges. I need this tribe to ride it out to the end. Top 2 and they aint number 2! I need this tribe to Never go to tribal and be the final 5. That's it. That's the tea. 

Anna Lynn: Let me put some respect on your name...Anna Lynn Starr (Yass hunty with 2 r's. It's the flavor for me). You are everything and some more. You need to be on real Survivor. You need to be on Big Brother. You need to be on the Circle. You need to be on somebody's TV because you are it. You are the moment. You re so kind and charming, and I think people are going to gravitate towards you (as they should) and you're going to be in the best spot by far on this tribe. What's an alliance without Anna Lynn. You can't spell alliance without AL lol. Okay...I'll be serious now. On the flip side, I dont want you to get voted out because you're too likable. You seem really smart though and I feel like you know how to manage your threat level. I have high hope for you. I love your "align with people who fill in those weaknesses you feel like you have" strategy. I think it's a perfect potential strategy, keeping somebody who might be a bigger target than you in the game and capitalizing off of their threat level. You betta! I honestly dont have too much bad to say about you. Is it because you have a fan club and they'll come for my wig if I do say something bad about you? Partially; but you're also just dope. Period. I'm rooting for you in this game and in real life. Get the bag sis! 

Biggest Strength: Personality - Social Queen
Biggest Weakness: Potentially being too well liked? Also Challenges. What if the person who is good at challenges wants to target you because all they have is challenges and wants to take out social threats?

Dayle: Dayle Fleming...Honestly...stan. and I'm working on upgrading that Stan card the platinum card so I can get more points when I swipe this card.I'm just so curious to see how you're going to mesh with this tribe because I honestly dont know. I think you're personable enough that you'll be okay, but I cant say 100%.  I think the people in the VL who know you, know that you're the truth. I think your prod chat speaks for itself. You know how to connect with people. I think your previous experience is going to help you. I think you're smart and strategic. I cant wait to see you be a fire cracker and I feel sorry for the person on the receiving end of the boom. I can sense that you will cut a bitch with your words. Thank Ricky for digging up XTC 3 lol. I hope you do well, and I honestly dont expect anything less. I think you've been around enough and done well enough that you know what's up. I see you going far in this game. I am so hype to have you on the cast and by the end of the season, I KNOW you're going to be a VL favorite. I dont think they see it now, but just you wait...Everybody will be trying to be part of the Dayle (tries to think of a cool fan club name) - hmmm I'll come back to that, but it's happening. You have the perfect balance of likableness/strategy that if people dont know you, they will want to work with you and give you information and it might come back to bite them. I feel like you're an underrated (by the VL)  force to be reckoned with, and I'm here for it! Do I see you getting to the end? it's going to be a journey for sure, but not impossible. Oh and...please...for the love of Godt, please dont tell people about your previous experience or how long you've been playing or that you host. I feel like they might try to target you because they think you know a lot of people or know the game too well. We dont need that sis! 

Biggest Strength: Experience - Personality
Biggest Weakness: Experience? I know I put it as your strength too, but if people recognize you, they might try to target you for that.  


Monte: He's sassy. He's saucy. He has personality. He has charm. He's a barb. He's a queen. He's here and I'm here for it. I am so excited to have Monte in this game. I feel like in the personality category, there's not too many that can keep up or compete. Monte's winning. I see him being well liked and giving great vibes to everybody on his tribe. I dont see a world where you dont like Monte. He has a big personality, and I think he can take it down a notch if he wants to, but should he? nah. Dont dull your shine for anybody! Honestly though, I feel like I'm underestimating him strategically. Part of me feels like he wont be a strategic mastermind, but I hope he surprises us. I could see Monte having some of the best confessionals this season and I'm so pumped to see them. I think when this season is over, no matter how well he does, Monte will have a big impact on this season. Mark my words. I know every ORG is about to be asking him to play, and I just want you to know, I dug him up from the trenches of twitter. 😂 I will be his manager going forward lol kidding. You know you're a star when you can initially interview with your camera off but we can still see your personality. That's star quality. I hope you surprise the hell out of all of us Monte! I hope you're more strategically focused than we're giving you credit, and I do think there's a great chance that you will be! Y'all better a ticket to the Monte show! He's going to deliver this season! 


Biggest Strength: Personality
Biggest Weakness: I'm honestly not fully sure? Part of me wants to say strategy, but I think you're a lot more strategic than I thought. 

Rizo: RizGod! My man! The "hate" is real from some people in the VL, but it's friendly hate. You're easy to love to hate if that that makes sense.  My opinion of you wont change. You're dope. You're an icon. You're funny. You're entertaining. You're dedicated. You're giving what you're supposed to gave and I love it here. Even before the game has started,  you're a joy to have on the cast. I. know some people think you have an ego with he whole RizGod thing, but who cares.  It's fun. I love that you laugh at your self and you're so carefree and charismatic. I think if anybody is going to deliver this season, it's RizGod. I think you're going to bring strategy. I think you're going to bring entertainment. I think you're going to bring Rizo to the table, and feed us this season. You were easily one of my favorite interviews. I can't pick who I liked more out of you and Hugo, but you're both dope and I wonder if you're going to hit it off when you meet. Anyway...I think if you just be yourself this game, it could be yours to take. You're such a dope person in general, and if you get to the end and secure the W, I wouldn't be surprised at all! I'm rooting for you RizGod! You're also in my draft, so I need you to understand the mission and execute.

Biggest Strength: Experience - Familiarity/Knowledge of others potential threat level 
Biggest Weakness: Honestly not sure....I see no flaws with RizGod lmao Das my boy! 

Tushara: Queen! I am so excited to have you on the cast this season. You're so charming and I think people will naturally gravitate towards you. Your first game doesn't define you, and I see you coming back, righting those wrongs, and making a run for the end. My only fear for you is that you might get to eager and pull the trigger before you're supposed to shoot your shot. I know that's talking in a lot of code, but what I mean is...You mentioned wanting to make big moves multiple times. I understand wanting to play the game and make moves, but I hope you have some finesse with it. I dont doubt that you do, and I'm sure you're very capable. If you're able to pull off brilliant moves and flips votes, I'm here for that. I just dont want to see you go because you did too much trying to make those big moves. I f eel like you're coming into this game feeling like you have something to prove, and I can understand that. I just want you to have fun, make big moves, make good connections,  but again...have fun! I think you will and I think you'll do well in this game, I just know how it can be to feel hyper focused on proving something to yourself that you get tunnel vision and lose sight of the bag. Cant have that sis. Get to the bag! You have potential to make it to the end. I'm rooting for you and want to see you added to that winner picture at the end of the season.

Biggest Strength: Drive - Dedication 
Biggest Weakness: Being Too Eager? Feeling like she needs some redemption after conquest? This is a new game. New experience. I think she will be okay and have a great all out experience. Just dont hyper focus. Have fun T<3

Most Likely to find an advantage:
Dayle? 
Rizo?

Most likely to be first boot:
Hopefully nobody, but...If I had to choose, I'd have to say Tushara for playing too hard too quickly.

Game Predictions:
Literally none. I dont want any. How about...this tribe wins out and they  all make it to merge? okay? cool.

This has to be the most interesting tribe to me. I was not sure of how the tribe dynamic of Tulgey would go, but this tribe has to take the cake when it comes to who tf is going to work with who? I love the different personality dynamics of this tribe and I cant wait to see how it plays out. We have people who want to be villains. We have people who want to be the queen of the game. We have people who want to come in and just have a good time. Honestly, I'm excited for all of it. I have no clue how the dynamics of this tribe will go, and I love the unknown. Let the chaos unfold! 

Alex: I'm so excited to see Alex play this game. Alex was another twitter find, and he killed his interview. I believe he might have been our first autocasts of the males. You cant help but love the guy. He's so personable. He's very well rounded, and he brings a different strategy to the game. I'm always curious to see how people play when they say that they want to play a villain role. Does that mean you're willing to cut people to progress your game? Or are you intentionally getting people to like you so that you stab them in the back? I need answers. I guess we will find out in game. I'm curious to see how Alex and Erin H will work together. They both want to play the villain role, but Erin wants to play it with other Villains. I think Alex's "play the nice, quiet, laidback" strategy will make him miss out on an opportunity to have an ally that has a similar taste in allies. Alex has mentioned that he will miss the first couple of days due to his grandfathers passing. I hope that he is able to bounce back after missing two of the most important days. My fear for Alex is that he has won one before and will think that the strategy that he used in that game is cookie cutter for all of his games. This is a new beast, and I hope he's able to adjust to the learning curve.

Biggest Strength: Personality. Strategist. 
Biggest Weakness: Missing the first few days? I hope you're able to bounce back. I want to see you play this game. Also potentially trying to replicate his previous strategy and not playing based on who he is on a tribe with in the game. 

Anders: Not gonna lie, I wasn't super hype about Anders coming into the season, but I get it now. I think he's one that has to grow on you. I think in real life,  we'd be great friends. I think he's an interesting  person, and I'm so curious to see how he gels with the rest of his cast.  Kilby described Anders and compared him to beer. He said, "nobody picks up beer and drinks it the first time and thinks,  wow this is great. It's something that you have to drink over time and let it grow on you." and I have never heard a more true statement. I think that is Anders to a T! I think once you get Anders, you get Anders. I hope that makes sense. I feel like Anders says he doesn't have much to prove, but I dont know if he actually feels like that  low-key. Part of me feels like he has to do well because of his performance in Endure and Conquest.  I hope that's not the case. At the end of the day, I just want Anders to have fun. I want people to get to know him and for him to realize that those games dont define him.  He doesn't have anything to prove, and doing well in ORGS  doesn't mean anything in real  life.  Not saying he doesn't realize that already,  I just want him to have fun. That's what this is all about.  I'd honestly love for Anders to come in and play a Villain role.  I'd honestly love for him to make moves and do what he needs to do to get by. No matter what happens,  Anders just know, although I may not have been fond of your interview, I think you're dope and I'm rooting for you!  

Biggest Strength: Experience
Biggest Weakness: Not everybody likes "beer". In a small tribe of 5,  it might be hard. to. find people that you gel with in the event that you go to tribal first.  


Erin H:  Honestly,  I stan! I think she's going to play a more calculated game than Alex and play the villain role better. She says she wants to be a villain in this game, and honestly,  I'm here for it! When she says she wants to be a villain, I dont get a "I'll fuck you over just to say I did vibe". I see her being strategic and smart about when to cut people. I mean look at her picture! She is poison Ivy from Batman! I thought she was good in her interview and I love that she realizes what mistakes she made in her second game. I've said it once and I'll say it again. I love seeing people play their second game because they get to right their wrongs from their second game. I just hope Erin H doesn't over correct and cut her allies too early. On the flip side, I hope she doesn't fall victim to working with the wrong villain. She's playing with fire with this strategy, but I'm here for it! I hope you out villain the other villains this season Erin H! Let's get it!


Biggest Strength: Strategy
Biggest Weakness: Aligning with other Villains?  Idk...it might work

Gerda: Queen  Gerda! I'm so hype to see you play this game! You were by far one of my favorite interviews. Idk if you mean it when you say you dont want to work with women, but I also love that you go against the grain.  I j just hope that you work with people for who they are and not because of their gender identity. I think that if you align with the right people, you will go far in this game. I know you said like working with men, but honestly, I dont see too many people who dont want to work with you. I hope that you have an open mind coming into this game and take allies as they come. I love your personality, and I hope the transition from what youre used to compared to discord goes well. You're so easy love and root for. I want to see you do well! Just dont come for the wrong person. It could result in you being dethroned! 

Biggest Strength: Experience - Ability to connect with others
Biggest Weakness: Turning down allies just because of gender

Malcolm: Malcolm! My main man! I am so hype to have you in this game. Malcolm is one of the most genuine, kind,  smart people I've ever met. He is going to bring soooo much to this season! I think Malcolm will be a forced to be reckoned with, no questions. Coming into this season, his previous ORG experience wasn't the best, but he challenged us as a casting team to find a diverse cast with minimal connections. I feel like we do that anyway,  but I especially strived to do that this season. I think if Malcolm finds the right people to work with in the game, there's no way he doesn't go deep. I feel like there's no way that you can talk to to him and not love him. I easily see people gravitating towards him and him finding himself in a leader role! How well he manages that leader role will determine how far he goes! I'm rooting for you Malcolm! Let's gooooooooo! 

Biggest Strength: Social game
Biggest Weakness: Honestly idk? Will he be familiar with potential challenges?


Potential Alliances:
Power Duos:
Malcolm/Gerda: The "Older" than the rest of the tribe vibe
Erin H/Alex: Bonnie and Clyde
Anders/Alex: The A Team

   

Trios:
Gerda/Malcolm/Anders?
Alex/Anders/Erin H
Alex/Anders/Malcolm: The Nerds 3.0


Potential Enemies:
Gerda/Erin? 
Anders - potentially anybody?

Leader of the Tribe:
Malcolm
Alex?

Most Likely to find an advantage:
Anders?
Malcolm?

Most likely to be first boot:
Anders?
Alex - since he has to miss the first two days


Game Predictions:
I'm predicting that Malcolm and Gerda will align, Alex and Erin H will align and Anders might be the swing and decide who goes home. 

It's been  mentioned that Anders might say that Alex  is an easy option since he missed the first two days, and idk how well that will sit with this tribe. Malcolm seems compassionate, but it may stick as Gerda/Erin H seem more cut throat. Could that bite Anders in the butt or will it stick if they go to tribal?
