I'm really wondering what will happen at tonight's tribal council because there was some tension from Jacob at the last tribal between him and Luis, especially with the fake idol play.

Now I am wondering, will it be 4 vs. 2? It could go any way on that.

Escudo + Serpiente vs. El Sol again.
Escudo + El Sol vs. Serpiente this time.
Serpiente + El Sol vs. Escudo this time.

It would make sense to go after Escudo for the numbers, but I know sometimes larger groups crumble when they get to the merge, so I could see why that would not be the first choice.

Will there be a #blindside tonight? :O

i'm happy that alxyandra is gone. Luis is making this game interesting and he is good tv! :D

I agree -- Luis is panning out as a more interesting character than I originally thought to be.

Alexandra is gone, and I think that could really push Clair forward deep into the game.

LUIS'S ASS NEEDS TO GO.

He was horrible in a group game I was in with him that just ended, he played an awful fucking game and was disgusting.

so far, i'm rooting for luis, ethan, ben and sagar.

I think merge is going to be AMAZING with all these players mentioned above. This season is good already but I think merge is going to be superb.

I don't see an original Escudo surviving tonight, but if I do, I will be impressed.

If Luis and Jacob don't see that merging 6 original Escudo members is not a real potential danger, I'm not sure what is. But, I suppose, you never know.

yea, i'm also expecting joel or will to go tonight. It's impressive to see how luis went from misplaying an idol to now really controlling the tribe.

Oh, and congrats on getting black Logan :)

Also, pleaseeeee continue the top 10. There is only 2 more moments XD

Will do Newz. XP

logan requested i kill some newbies egos hey

rooting for sagar and clair btw

I wonder if this merge will top the All-Stars merge? Got a lot of interesting dynamics goin on I think.

To #blindside or #notblindside is the question?

my gosh this merge is going to be insane. I have really high expectations for a good merge.
I think this is where ethan and ben, as a duo, get tested because they haven't been to tribal yet so they don't know who is their true ally and who isn't.

I'll catch up on all this soon x

Rating Merged Players that I know!

haycsclair >
Clair's strengths lies in her social game - she's so easy to get on with, and she's one of those unexpected players. You think she's going to be a wilting flower, but she turns out to be a venus fly trap and can swallow some of the biggest players whole. The problem is, as soon as you know with her how the magic trick is done, as in how her 'game' works, she suddenly becomes the number 1 target, so lets hope she can keep her true self hidden.

obscurity
Sagar is an excellent player, and very diverse! He's hosted enough and played enough to know how to play a lot of different scenarios. My problem is, no matter how good his social game is, people are going to want this big named player gone! How can he bypass this target? He'll have to play a sly game to do so!

Ethan000
Ethan is a great player, very heroic, very solid, great at challenges, and he can set himself on cruise control and go far! My concern is that people can't help but LOVE to blindside Ethan. He's one of those targets that seems so juicy - he's the 'we gotta blindside' guy, so Ethan will have to use his connections and wits to keep one step ahead!

bigben1996
Ben is great, and with this cast, my pick to win potentially! He's very strategically, very friendly and just not enough of a threat to be valuable to an alliance as well as hidden to enemies. Ben just has to do what he does best and realise the threats, and remove them quickly and without attention.

Number1SurvivorFan
He's in my frat, and is so enthusiastic and a lot of fun! I think his energy will come across and people will be dying to work with him or use him as a number. Hopefully he'll be willing to make the necessary cuts and think far ahead enough to get him into the right final 3. I have high hopes this lad!
