So like..meltan dies the next time they don't win immunity, right? Still this will have some interesting fallout even if it's not an especially surprising result.

Do we have any idea how Deoxys really feels about Meltan? Might hinge on that if Meltan goes home. Regi might still try and backstab Meltan but if he does he'd just be back where he started last round.

If I'm correct and everyone hates Deo now, he might be viewed as a goat, in which case I can see the other players taking him out. There's already a liked "goat" in Tapu Lele and going near the end with two "goats" would be pretty bad for a lot of people.

I think a lot depends on fallout with Deo and Poipoi. They could easily phrase it in a way to get back on Hoopa and Celebi's good side, but knowing Regi and Meltan, they might try to work with Hoopa and Celebi and take out the obvious flip floppers.

I feel like this game went pretty much exactly how previous Shrek games went tbh. Helped with an immunity win and two idol finds. But he's always a massive target at the merge lol.

There's already a liked "goat" in Tapu Lele and going near the end with two "goats" would be pretty bad for a lot of people. That didn't seem to stop everyone from wanting to take both Tapu and Deo before.. if people feel like they can't trust his vote they might go for him but this entire round's rigamorole happened because, in my opinion, Reggie tried to take out the obvious backstabby goat and the threats were like 'oh no, my goat!' Since a threat went instead of a goat I would expect all the threats to be on the radar. It's like pringles, you can't vote just one!

Hmmm, not surprised by Coba having Deo as their top but...curious if it will stay that way. Also hope we get some...actual jury talk soon.

You could be right Sabrina. I don't think everyone viewed Deoxys as a "goat" yet though. Just as someone a lot of people favored a matchup against. (I doubt they've crossed notes that everyone wants to take Deoxys to the end yet)

I dont see anyone thinking Deo is a goat anymore. Whether or not this was a game changer remains to be seen, but Deo now has a feather in his cap that he can claim he killed off the biggest villain in the game. Dont think it's true, we don't know who or what truly swayed Poipole yet but I think this move atleast makes it look like Deo is playing to win. Tapu is still the main goat... I'd argue celebi is kinda a goat too, has Celebi really done anything yet to stand out from under Hoopa and Cobas shadows,?

Maybe. If I was saying what I -hope- happens then I would hope everyone realizes Deoxys is playing them and gets 6 votes this round.

YAY REGGIE SURVIVED!!!
I think the game now will turn from 2 different sides to being a game of taking out the big threats to win and so it’ll be interesting to see what happens and how people vote

WOW SHREK FINDING IDOLS AND PLAYING LIKE A BOSS. I'M A FAN. *BELLOWS LOUDLY IN APPRECIATION*

GIRATINA RANKS THE REMAINING PEOPLE: *RANKROAR*
1. HOOPA-PRIOR TO THIS ROUND I ACTUALLY FELT LIKE COBALION WAS HOLDING HOOPA BACK TO A DEGREE. SO LONG AS HE WAS IN THE GAME, I THOUGHT HOOPA WOULD BE OVERSHADOWED. NOW THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED, I THINK THAT WE WILL SEE HOOPA FIGURE OUT HOW TO USE HIS IDOL LIKE A BOSS. I THINK I'M MOST EXCITED TO SEE HOW HOOPA FINISHES THIS GAME, EVEN IF IT ENDS. I'M JUST HOPING FOR SOME FIREWORKS AND MAYBE SLIDING INTO THE END LIKE A BOSS. HE DOES HAVE A BIT OF AN UPHILL BATTLE, BUT I'M CONFIDENT IT WILL BE A FUN ENDING TO THIS GAME.
2. MELTAN-ASIDE FROM BEING THE #1 THREAT, HE'S ACTUALLY PLAYING THE MOST OPEN GAME OF THE LOT. HE CLEARLY IS WILLING TO CONSIDER OPTIONS, IS VERY FRIENDLY, AND IS SEEN AS A THREAT. SHOULD HE SOMEHOW MAKE IT TO THE END, I THINK HE HAS THE BEST SHOT AT WINNING. GETTING THERE IS ANOTHER THING ENTIRELY. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE IF HE CAN KEEP AVOIDING ELIMINATION.
3. TAPU LELE-WHETHER OR NOT SHE ACTUALLY HAS A SHOT WILL DEPEND ON HOW WELL SHE IS ACTUALLY PLAYING THIS GAME, WHICH, UNFORTUNATELY, SPECS AREN'T SEEING A LOT OF. WE MOSTLY HAVE TO SEE WHERE SHE'S AT BASED ON 3RD PERSON PERSPECTIVE FROM OTHER PEOPLE, AND ASIDE FROM HER KINDA CALLING OUT REGI, I HAVEN'T SEEN MUCH. THAT, COUPLED WITH EVERYONE WANTS TO TAKE HER TO THE END OF THE GAME THAT DID RESPOND PRIOR, MAKES IT HARD TO JUDGE. I CANNOT SAY SHE IS PLAYING A BAD GAME THOUGH, SHE'S CLEARLY SOCIALLY MORE DOMINANT THEN WE ARE SEEING IN HER CONFESSIONAL. WHAT I ENJOY THE MOST IS THAT SHE HAS ON HER RESUME THAT SHE'S WORKED WITH BOTH SIDES OF THE FENCE, WHICH MIGHT BODE WELL FOR JURY MANAGEMENT.
4. REGIGIGAS-PRIOR TO LAST ROUND, I HAD REGI HIGHER THAN THIS. I THINK HE'S ON THIN ICE EVEN IF HE GETS BY A ROUND OR TWO. I THINK WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO SEE SOME PRO PLAYING, WHICH I KNOW REG IS CAPABLE OF, IF HE WANTS TO HAVE A SHOT AT WINNING.
5. DEOXYS-I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHAT HIS ACTUAL GAME IS AT THIS POINT. MAKE A MOVE? PANDER TO THOSE LEAVING? DEOXYS PERPLEXES ME. IT'S DEFINITELY A GAME THAT WILL GET SOME MENTION, BUT I'M NOT SURE HOW MUCH LONGER THE GAME CAN BE KEPT UP.
6. POIPOLE-IT'S EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO REALLY GET A GOOD READ ON THIS PLAYER. NOT MANY PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT POI IN THEIR CONFESSIONALS MUCH AND HE'S DEFINITELY NOT POSTING IN HIS. HOWEVER I'VE ALWAYS NOTICED THAT HE SEEMS TO BE A KEY VOTE THAT MOST PEOPLE GENERALLY DEPEND ON AS A NUMBER. THIS HAS BEEN AN EFFECTIVE PLAN IN THE PAST. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE HIM TRY TO CONVEY HIMSELF AS A WINNER IN THE END.
7. CELEBI-I'M NOT SAYING CELEBI HASN'T DONE GREAT WORK TO GET HERE. I THINK EVERYONE WHO GETS TO THE FINAL 7, DIDN'T GET THERE MERELY BY CHANCE. HOWEVER, I'VE SEEN NO INDICATION THAT CELEBI HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO WIN IF THEY MAKE THE FINALE AS A SPEC. I WISH THEM THE BEST AND DON'T THINK YOU DESERVE BAD WORDS BY ANY MEANS, I JUST THINK OTHERS ARE GOING TO BE SEEN AS HAVING MORE MOVES AND IN GENERAL HAVING PLAYED BETTER. GOOD LUCK!

Weird, if you literally reversed your list, other then switching Regi and Tapu, that would be my ranking of people most/less likely to win.

MINE WASN'T NECESSARILY MOST/LEAST LIKELY TO WIN, BUT WINNABILITY DEFINITELY DID HAVE A FACTOR IN IT. I GUESS I'D PROBABLY SAY "MOST EXCITED TO SPEC FOR THE REST OF THE GAME" ?? THAT SOUNDS KINDA RIGHT. *GROWLS BUT ONLY A LITTLE BIT TO INDICATE A SOFT DOMINANCE*

No matter what happens in the future, I'm proud of how Regi was able to step back and take inventory and work that last tribal. He was for sure gone, but he's learned from the experience and is going to be an even better player as a result. He still doesn't have the best read on everyone, but it's good enough to get by. He was making too many moves for the sake of making moves rather than advancing his game.
That being said, I think the players are seriously underestimating Tapu. Tapu is universally liked, and in a game where the final 3 is going to be the survivor of all threats, if she's in the finals with someone aside from Meltan or maybe Hoopa, she could easily say "I intentionally allied with meat shields" as a survival technique, but as my strategy. All she has to do is stand up and go "All ya'll be trifling and I'm just sittin here laughing" and because she's a good sponge - if she can outline the bad moves others made to benefit her, that would show how restraint is the winning strategy when you've been long-term allied with meltan/regi/deo.

I agree, all she has to do is be cute and be up against two people who aren't cute. Usually 'obvious goats' get an aura of dislike around them for existing and there's no hint of that towards Tapu. Her biggest hurdle will be not knowing how to be cute in the right way at FTC.

Post by Giratina on Feb 26, 2019 2:14:34 GMT
I AGREE. TAPU LELE HAS A LOT OF OPTIONS AND A LOT OF SOCIAL SWAY. IT WILL BE VERY INTERESTING TO SEE WHO UNDERESTIMATES HER ENOUGH TO GET HER THERE. *BELLOWS AGREEINGLY*

Do we know if it's a final 3 or a final 2 yet? Because it would make a huge difference this game.
