Bukhara is gonna be a powerhouse, Chazz and Sagar are both very strong in challenges

I hope the returnees last since I adore all three of them!

Agree with Ryan. #TeamBukhara

Also, I will begin to interview the castaways this season via Leli's After Show once we've arrived to the jury stage of the game. I think that's when these guys are mostly bitter which leads to a great after show!

a lot of fairly unknown players, which always makes for an exciting season :)

This cast is pretty good. We should see a nice season

People I'm rooting for:
Joel <3
Alan <3
Chris
Marcus

Those are the only 4 I like for can stand. Tbh I know Blake and he plays similar to me thinking he knows everything and is the shit, he doesn't have a chance in wining but if people are smart they'll take him  to the end cause he can't win. Chazz is friends with Blake and kinda sheeps him in the sense of if one of them hates someone they both do so I think they will be a duo that people will split up

Sagar will be a physical threat for sure, if their smart they won't let him get merge but he will make it and get far tbh. Also I'm interested to see how the returnees will do, hopefully they do well

I'm honestly #TeamBukhara & #TeamFergana <3 I love a lot of people on both of those tribes. This shall be an interesting season! I'm so excited for what's to come :)

This will be a very good season.  I like everyone in this cast but the duo of Blake and Chazz is going to be very entertaining.

Bukhara loses the first challenge, but I think it was because it was non-live. I think they're going to do well in live challenges. Both Chazz and Sagar are experienced players on the site. I think Qarshi is going to be in trouble once the live challenges start.

From an Old Timer Leli's Player i can absolutely say that the cast is diverse and we can see some drama. i just think the game will be quiet for now. i sense a follow the leader type game play early on.

Just have a stalk on the players profiles I think I can see a premade alliance already formed off Mel and Red and if I'm good at judging I think Tico could be apart of that alliance because he always runs to majority

Apart from that and the obvious Chazz and Blake alliance (which I know of prior) then I can't really see any other alliances tbh. I just hope with this tribal Sagar, Syd and Chazz don't actually team up lol

I have a lot of favourites this season hoping one of them will come out on top

Mike is the Francesca of this series.

OMG MIKE!

Literally agreeing with Nat he is #FrancescaStatus Poor Mike :(

Oh well still rooting for my foursome to remain in the game :)

Don't know a huge amount of people in the game.

Mel is a friend of mine and a good player. She did get fortunate with her tribe with a lot of natural allies. Chris, Red, maybe even Tico.

I think I have played with Anthony before? Though not really sure :/

Ouch @ Mike Francesca-ing.

I'm actually hoping Ami does well, she was actually in my first ever alliance in my first ever group game. She is a very loyal player, and strong in challenges.

But this season looks really exciting and I'm glad Leli's game is back as it is always a great game to watch unfold!
