10th Place - Kenji

I feel like coming into the merge the girls from Hwanjie will be the obvious swing votes here as I feel as though Forrest/Giacomo/Valentina will go to them and try to get in their ear in order to break up the main four alliance that formed over on Jeonsa. It's hard to tell which one of the four who would they go after, however I think the argument to take Kenji out this early would be he's a likable presence and he has good connection keeping Sanjay and Mercedes together, voting him out could potentially break that alliance apart and isolate Sanjay in order to sweep him up for future votes.

9th Place: Therese

The girls has made some enemies after Kenji got eliminated, and I feel like Ingvar approaches Giacomo and Valentina to propose that they get rid off one of the Hwangie girls because they could be a deadly trio going late into the game, and he is able to pull Sanjay on board as well. Therese gets targeted because she is a likable motherly figure so she is a social threat, and that she also is the glue between the two girls due to Ophelia being a bit wary around Cleo already. Plus he is also a jury threat with his sob story.

8th Place: Mercedes

After that whole vote off I feel like this vote is a little more simple to understand since I think maybe Mercedes will act a bit cocky/pretentious and just her behavior rubs the majority of the castaways the wrong way so they just ended up voting her because she's just way unpredictable and that her attitude is not cutting it for people to really want her around longer.

7th Place: Valentina

I'm not sure where to put her however I think this could be a good spot as I feel like she's going to get idoled out by someone. My prediction is Ingvar but that's only a small belief in it. I think someone starts seeing her of having a good social and strategic game, and kinda sees her as playing all sides of the game so it finally catches up to her as someone plays an idol and gets her out in a beautiful tribal moment.

6th Place: Giacomo

With Valentina gone all Giacomo has left is Forrest, and I think due to this he becomes sorta in an underdog position, and tries to get the two Hwangie girls to join him in a vote to take out Ingvar however they are still upset about Giacomo blindsiding them in the Therese vote plus they see him as more threatening to the jury as he will have Valentina's vote for sure. So they vote him out.

5th Place: Cleo

With her overall unpredictability, and that Jeonsa wants to avoid the girls having tied numbers in the final 4, they vote out Cleo just due to her personality and how irrational some of her gameplay was/Ophelia won immunity which is also entirely possible.

4th Place: Sanjay

Forrest teams up with Ophelia in the end to try to take out the duo of Ingvar and Sanjay (mostly Ingvar) however the doctor wins immunity after a tough fight with Forrest so he does the next best thing and take out the person that he's been fairly close with ever since the idol play back in pre-merge. It ends up in fire-making between Ophelia and Sanjay, which Sanjay gets sent out the door.

3rd Place: Forrest

He's your classic FTC goat, as he was unpredictable and utterly stupid throughout the game especially at final 4 when he let Ophelia go to the final 3 since she's a huge underdog and a big threat compared to Sanjay. With just his whole crazy antics and overall personality in game he doesn't get many votes.

2nd Place: Ophelia

This tribal council honestly came down between Ophelia and Ingvar however I think Ophelia bombs the questioning, even though she is applauded for being the underdog, some of the choices she made in the game were questionable plus she kinda floated through a lot of the game while the other Jeonsa ate each other up. She gets the votes from Cristian, Cleo, and Therese.

1st Place: Ingvar

Even though Forrest removes his only secured vote in the jury (that being Mercedes) he still is able to smooth talk the rest of the jury and prove that he has been manipulating and reading social situations perfectly. He is a fan of the show so I think he uses his knowledge from previous seasons and also his game from this season to really secure down his impressive performance with his social and strategic game as prove from getting two idols through the gifting, which earns the votes of Sanjay, Kenji, Valentina, and Giacomo.

Idol: This is tricky but I think Sanjay finds it and gifts it to Ingvar as a repaying the favor for using the idol on him.

Remove a juror: I feel like Forrest wins this one and removes Mercedes from the jury cause of their rivalry and his need to screw Ingvar over.

Immunity: I feel Forrest wins immunity for the first episode
