Bananas 7-8 in eliminations. In 16 seasons, Bananas has 8 finals & has won 6.

CT 5-3 in eliminations. He's obviously also been very good at avoiding them over the years. This is his 7th final in 13 seasons (2 wins).

CT elimination losses

poorly designed DQ where he murdered brad in the duel
adam throws it for bananas and CT still almost wins single handedly in rivals
puzzle to bananas in free agents

CT elimination wins

crushes shane in an eating challenge
evan in a physical/puzzle where evan was so intimidated he tried to cheat by writing the solution on his arm in the duel
evan/nehemiah destruction in rivals
killed leroy in free agents
killed darrell in invasion

could even give him win by wes as proxy against jordan and bananas in champs v. pros

he doesnt have to do anything to avoid eliminations since everyone is scared ****less of facing him

bananas is 1-6 in his last 7 eliminations with his only win against the powerhouse of dario/nicole

I was shocked this didn't happen.

guarantee there were rules about what you could do

CT has proven in the past that he doesn't have elite endurance. Whatever season they were on the ice mountain in the final and CT was completely gassed comes to mind. And that was when CT was "in shape". At eliminations he is a beast and IMO his only legit loss is in the HU puzzle to bananas. He also plays a great social game now too, which wasn't always the case 4+ years ago.

CT is a great competitor and has been my favorite on the show for over a decade, but Jordan has more endurance.

The final will come down to 2 things:
How much endurance actually comes into play. I feel like the last couple it hasn't matter as much as it did about 2-7 years ago, when they were just massive endurance finals.

The partner situation, its pretty clear CT is with cara and Tori will be with Jordan. There is a lot of variables in that. It's also possible they mix it up and have every guy/girl combo happen at different segments in the final like they did last season. Again lots of variance.

Given everything, I think Jordan is the favorite to win it all for guys.

On a different note, I used to really like Cara but now she just annoys me so bad. I probably started off the Cara wagon when she got the HJ from the tennis player and cheated on Ab. I hate how some of the vets have a false sense of entitlement about the game. Just accept the fact you got played and move on CARA. Notice the difference how CT handles it and how Cara did, completely different approaches and for their long term game play(beyond this season) it benefits CT much more. I haven't really liked Jordan much in the past (expect when he went hu with John and got rocked LOL) but i completely agree with him in that cara argument.

Also Cara just riding CTs coattails in that pruge and thinking she has anything to do with that victory annoys me. Any other girl paired with CT advances there as well.

As much as I hate aneesa , i give her props for cheering for Jenna after she was eliminated. Leroy just super cool dude all the time and rooting for hunter against his biggest allies is also great.

Tony is drawing dead at this point to make finals. 80% derrick, 20% hunter advance to finals. Probably 55-45 without hunters wrist issue.

Girls should be a great battle actually. I have it Jenna>Kaliah>>Cara without know anything about the challenge to come.

Overall been a solid season so far.

I hope if they do have 1 partner through all of the finals, they allow for the ultimate dirty play and the ability to screw over your partner and take all the cash. Doubtful CT would screw cara, but its possible he finds it in him and thinks about all the diapers at stake. Would love to see that.

its camilla in the finals, as annoying as she is on the show she is still a pretty elite elimination challenger

i think camilla > kailah > jenna if it is truly individual. if theres a way for 2 to gang up on the third then camilla is way behind

finally catching up. haven't seen the last 2 episodes. can't find the second to last one for wahtever reason its not on demand

have the latest recorded

these hammers are really dumb

wow ct killed it lol

jordan wins the second spot every time

bananas didnt even get to the puzzle lol

lol at layup tony still being there

cara is the world's biggest idiot

cara is likely on a performance enhancing drug. she's probably just flat out taking roids

lol hunter was such a great addition

guy truly has nothing but the challenge

loooool pros vs champs looks amazing

if they continue to go the way they do and expand their player pool it definitely seems within the realm of possibility they eventually add pros to the actual challenge cast

someone like TO seems competitive/crazy enough to actually do it

challenge could be coming BACK

and it seems pretty evident that jordan is the best one there. the guy is insane.

cara is completely insufferable

so is camila

why didnt jordan pair with kailah wtf

lmao tony is so god damn stupid it's hilarious

what a shame hes still here

hunter with some terrible luck with his hand

damn CT killed it

lmao how ****ing long was jordan doing this without one puzzle piece wtf

camila is the nut low man

i've got tori as H.O.T.

I got most of bus’ comments as spot on

You think hunter has terrible luck with his hand? You should see Jordan's hand.
