#1) Cara Maria (2)
Cara is proving herself to be a leader and veteran despite making almost a huge blunder. She was able to recover from telling Dario and Raphy they were going into The Pit, then sending in Stephen and Thomas, and still managing to get Stephen to understand. With the players being broken up, Cara will be one of the strongest, if not the strongest, female player. Unless people target her early, she can make it to the big time.
#2) Cory (3)
Cory is the rookie underdog. He's a strong competitor and not making any waves in the drama department. People are drawn to him and probably would not like to see him leave. If Cory remains under the radar, he could sail his way deep into this game.
#3) Johnny (5)
Bananas must be thrilled that he will be split from Vince. It makes his target just a bit smaller. Johnny knows how to manipulate and in a team setting, he will want to take charge. The only factor that could hurt Johnny is how exactly players are selected to go into The Pit.
#4) Jamie (2)
Jamie was sitting pretty with Cara in the top but in a game of veterans, losing her could be a good sign for him. If Jamie can break out and become his own person, he could see a clear path to victory. Like Cory, he hasn't seemed to rub anyone the wrong way and is strong in the challenges.
#5) Dario (7)
Dario is tricky. He was able to sway Cara into not sending him in. But he used scare tactics. While it worked, it proves that he has an ego. Dario and Raphy seem to have big heads and will want to prove their worth. Some players will stray from that. Others, like Bananas, will likely feed into it and be willing to fight.
#6) Raphy (7)
Raphy is tricky. Because it's hard to tell him apart from Dario. With people breaking up into teams, perhaps the twins could use it to their advantage. Maybe play a little game of parent trap. Raphy is a strong player. But he's still a newbie.
#7) Mitch (3)
Mitch is like that good kid that has no idea what he's doing at the bad kids' table. Mitch has a great smile and is loved by all. And he seems like a legit player. He will likely float so far under the radar that he will see the final challenge just because everyone forgot he was there.
#8) Anthony (4)
So here's the thing about Anthony being ahead of his cousin Kelly Anne. Anthony is broing out and that is a good sign. Kelly Anne lost her closest pal in Cohutta and will need to find some new friends. Cara seems like the most viable option for her. But as far as Anthony goes, if he and his bros continue their game, he will carry Kelly Anne far.
#9) Leroy (12)
Leroy takes a giant leap by cutting the cord from Candice. No offense to her but she was holding him back. Leroy must be thrilled. Leroy is a vet with some strong ties. If he can take a leadership role, Leroy could skate through for some time. Again, the struggle will be how the players are determined for The Pit.
#10) Shane (11)
Shane is the life of the party. How can you not love him! Like Leroy, being detached from Tony will only be for the best. Shane will now have to prove he can play alone and be a dominating force in the challenge. Otherwise his slim stature will get him a place in The Pit.
#11) Kelly Anne (4)
Kelly Anne had a great alliance going with Cara and Cohutta but losing Cohutta is bad news. While there's likely no bad blood between her and Nany, both former loves of Cohutta's, it could be an excuse to be a target. Kelly Anne has proven herself to be a fierce competitor time in and time out. But being one of the older kids this time around could backfire.
#12) Nany (6)
Nany is trying to change her ways. And so far, so good. Nany has played best when she was trying to prove herself to her partner. Going partnerless in a team setting may allow her to take a backseat. Or panic even more that she's letting more people down if she fails. Either way, her head is in the game now more than ever.
#13) Aneesa (10)
Aneesa is an outcast. She fits in but anyway you cut it, she is the odd man out. Being the oldest person present could make her an easy target. Or it could benefit her with the young ones trying to use her for her knowledge. She needs to get with the vets and find security fast.
#14) Camila (8)
Camila is not going to want to fight against Larissa and that will likely cause drama. Drama is usually a good sign to get yourself booted. Camila is one of the lowest ranking vets for a reason. This new format will work against her.
#15) Thomas (9)
Thomas likes Cara and that is the only reason he forgave her. There was absolutely no strategy behind it. In fact, he should have used it to his advantage. While the fans know something is brewing, once Abram arrives, Thomas better sleep with one eye open.
#16) Stephen (9)
Being a twin must suck. It's probably that Stephen was always the cooler twin growing up but now in The Challenge world, he is the forgotten one. Stephen is literally along for the ride. And he needs to do something soon before he is completely lost in Turkey.
#17) Vince (5)
Vince is a firestarter. Being away from Johnny will work against him because he has no one to fall back on. Vince needs to prove that he is worth the headaches that he causes. Stirring drama for drama's sake is a bad strategic move. One person catches wind and he could kiss his chances goodbye.
#18) Nicole
Nicole is full of emotions. Being separated from her cousin could prove bad for her. She has been holding onto Nany for support. Like Camila and Larissa, she won't want to battle Nany. Nicole will need to lay low from the drama and prove that she is a competitor.
#19) Larissa (6)
Here's the thing about Larissa. She's virtually a replica of Camila in animation and electricity. She does not seem to have any strength as a challenger though. Larissa must prove her worth fast or she could be seeing the Staten Island Cousin in The Pit.
#20) Rianna (10)
Rianna has alliances with two people who just don't fit into this mix of people. And that's hilarious because now separated, she sticks out as a weak player. Rianna needs to hope and pray that Mitch is on her side so she has support otherwise she is an easy scapegoat.
#21) Tony (11)
Tony is getting a reputation. Depending on the time of day and whether or not he has alcohol in his system displays a different side of T.Raines. Tony is an easy target for a guy's elimination because of his drama.
#22) Candice (12)
Candice should be crying now that she's separated from Leroy. This is a worse case scenario for her. Lord help the team that is stuck with her and one of the Long Island Cousins.
#23) Jenna (13)
Jenna wants to play. Brianna doesn't. And now that they are apart, Jenna must be thrilled. But that doesn't help the fact that she's still a super weak player. Jenna must rely on her social game to take her far.
#24) Brianna (13)
She doesn't want to be here. It's a proven fact. Unless someone talks some sense into her, the team stuck with Brianna will throw her in the first chance they get.
