Craig - He ate. But yeah, won competition after competition and was in power the whole season. i wanted him out for so long, but it was so difficult, him getting Vincent to use the Veto, is one of the strongest BB moves I have seen and I still am kinda confused by it. But yeah, even if he did depend on winning out, it was only because he dominated so much beforehand.
Layla - She was someone who always had good reads on the house and had herself set up to win in the end against myself / cam / vincent. Probably could have played more dangerously with her HoH's to make it to the end, particularly for 12th and could have set up herself more with swing voters to last longer. But she still could have won if competition wins went differently.
Nicky - Definitely someone who I felt to be the strategic minds of the other side, Nicky played quite well all season, despite being nominated a lot and should have left earlier but always managed to pull through. However, I do think he was setting himself up to lose against Craig, which pulls him down.
Eoin - A dominating force but too on the messy side, made broken promises and was obnoxious. However, someone scrappy and always had a decent level of control and found himself out of dire situations.
Zach - He knew what was up a lot, but also failed to socially integrate himself well, making a bad decision to take Eddie out, but definitely once he had a good read on the house, he played really well.
Newz - I think Newz was someone who definitely could have snuck his way to the end and won, he had a great social game and again had good reads on the house. I think he was possibly holding back with competition wins and made it significantly further than the rest of the winners so I definitely respect that.
Vincent - I think Vincent was really great at convincing me with his pitch to stay and had some great ideas, but him using the veto on Craig was an awful move, which did cause his eviction, so due to that move, I am unable to place him higher.
Cameron - He literally could have been at 100 days ago and played the same game, I give him credit for putting himself in that position but I don't know how conscious that effort was, so I cannot rank it that highly.
Kevin - A bit of a wildcard, Kevin always had good reads but never got to utilise them. He didn't quit and kept fighting, so I put that above the other people as I respect players. I don't think he did anything in particular wrong.
Daniel - Basically quit, asked for veto to be used, knowing that he was the renom, knew that he could get an extra double vote but didn't bother to ask for it. Played really well up until 10th, but yeah, he basically gave up.
David - Made no independent move himself, he took out Daniel's enemy who was not going after him and used veto because Daniel told him too, taking out his own ally. Quit the game basically, and got unanimously evicted. I find it hard to rank him as he didn't do a single independent thing.
Jake - Had the right ideas but played too volatile and did not even attempt to create long term bonds and heal old enemies
Eddie - Had a good grasp on social politics but made a terrible move which caused his eviction, however, I am glad that he did as it helped me get here.
Jacob - Played very slowly, didn't do much
Will - Lasted one week
Macken - Basically quit the game
