Mike's social game was really good actually lol. Nobody disliked him except sort of Dan and Rodney. But even then, they easily got over it. There's a difference between being an outcast and having a bad social game. He had the flaw of being too dominating and then made the strategic flop of his move at the auction but even editing couldn't hide the fact that Mike was loved by the other castaways in general the entire game even after his alliance turned on him. Yeah I can agree with this. He had a good enough social game to easily win at ftc. I mostly just rank him low because he had to use an idol to save himself from elimination and had to rely on challenges a lot more.

Rodney did not run anything. Dude couldn't even win a reward, let alone make many strategic moves, but wanting to get rid of Mike. I just don't see the hype. I can't be the only one that hates Rodney. Do I like rodney? No. Do I think he played a good game? Yes. Everyone loved rodney, Rodney got the number and he alligned himself closest with the two least likeable people on the entire cast (Dan and will). They had numbers at f6 due to Dan's double vote and Rodney controlled them. Was Rodney bad at challenges? Hell yes. But he had a great social game and a good strategic game I definitely did not see that at all. I watched the whole season in 3 days and that didn't come off in the edit. He was just cocky.

Idk how you can say that when she pretty much tried to dethrone Tom the most constantly and held the most power postmerge of how she wanted to go. She lost to Tom, but so would most people. She's the most underrated ftc loser, but this is off topic asf Sherri gets sh*t on way more than Katie. Katie is just irrelevant to most people tbh so nobody really talks about her. Like Sash or Sabrina. Which is even worse because Katie is the precursor to Courtney Yates only more rude, but has more interesting relationships. Tbh I'd love to see Katie back <3 but lolol at Sash. I'm getting flashes of Dan Lembo's final words to him

If you look at what people said after the fact everyone loved him and thought he was hilarious. He alligned with two unlikable sheep who were even worse than he was in challenges. He played a great game IMO

Everyone said postshow that he got a much worse edit than shown. I felt the same way as you did too tbh lol.

He played a great game IMO I'm not saying he wasn't liked though by the people in the game. Most people can be likable when you're around them 24/7 and you actually get to know them. Even if he was in the Final instead of Carolyn he would have still lost. My opinion is I just don't like him. And I don't care what people say after the show.

Everyone else, but Jenn and Dan would still vote Mike.

Let's agree to disagree then I just think Rodney doesn't get enough credit and the edit tried to bury him because he made it to f4 and they wanted to make Mike into the hero

Why does everyone think being liked= social game? The social game is so much more than that

You just won't win
