Final Round

It's hard to tell where most of the crowd that have been out for a while will vote, and that's where the swing is.

So my brief synopsis by how I think things are going:

Urbosa-Came in sort of as the "frontrunner" but that's a relative term since I don't think there is a clear one here. That being said, I don't think it's a complete loss, but I do think there is a bit of trying to claim moves that weren't altogether hers to claim and trying to pander to the jury which some of them are seeing through. I think she is still winning, but despite having amazing perception throughout the course of the game, she's not reading the room as well as I feel like she could.

Mipha-Was never going to get certain votes here. The strict fact of the matter is that there are jury members/players that will never vote for someone who was removed from the game whether it be by an idol or not. Typically, I am of that same opinion, so it's hard to discredit some of this. However, my mindset has changed a lot in recent times and I do think it's a rash judgement, I'm not perfect, my mindset can be changed. I think that Mipha has an agenda and it is playing out. I think she is still a strong contender to win, especially with that FTC auto vote that somehow managed to still be in someone's hands by this point. She could be having a much worse FTC, but is not doing horribly and I think could be a really interesting dark horse upset depending on how the votes are split. With 14 votes up for grabs, Mipha could definitely pull enough in in order to win.

Revali-In my opinion, Revali has had to do the most in order to stand a chance at this FTC, but he was always someone who had a shot to win it due to a really interesting gameplay. Originally, I thought this would be completely between Urbosa and Mipha for the win, but Revali's kind of getting scrappy in the 12th hour and it's not gone unnoticed. I don't know if it's enough to win at this point, but man if this were purely a debate and no game involved, I would say that Revali is doing the best job defending aspects of his game. I don't know that he will pull enough votes away from Urbosa or Mipha to actually win this, but it would be QUITE the upset if he does.

Any of these three could win and I think I would be satisfied. It's a really good FTC and three really good players are here and are actively fighting for the title. It's nice to see

So I clicked on the video in revali's thread and followed reccomendations for a bit and now I have a new favourite song. If I was in the game I would cast my FTC vote for him based on that alone

I think FTC on MS tends to take a format where the strongest speaker(s) have to do the convincing. In this instance, Urbosa (and Revali) is clearly a stronger speaker than Mipha, so she's being more deeply critiqued from both positive and negative angles. If she does well enough, I think she wins. If she doesn't, I think people default to Mipha (unless she does *particularly* poorly).

I think Mipha's going to win, and I really don't love that outcome, because I do think Urbosa would make a better winner, especially because as Kass rightly points out, if Mipha had her druthers she would be sitting next to Khoga and losing to Khoga. And also like someone getting that individual time to socialize with the Jury is such a massive advantage that no one is even thinking about because they were the Jury, they did the socialization.

I am happy for Mipha if she wins though. I just don't find her game to be that impressive.

My thing against Mipha isn't only that she was voted off, but that even once she returned, I don't really see the badass player the Jury sees. Even in her speech I don't see it. She never really drove strategy in the game. She never drove anything, and she didn't have to work at being seen as a goat, other people saw that in her because she'd been eliminated.

It's one thing if you run the game and are super dominant and drive strategy once you return, but Mipha wasn't. She's basically the same as Revali, only Revali didn't have the benefit of getting voted out and having a private bonding session with Jurors who passed off their items.

Mipha is 100% a weak winner

Yeah
