The second round finished with Logan's vote off. It was totally a devastating vote off, Logan was obviously emotional and it shows how much he really enjoys the game. I don't think he put up the fight I wanted to see him put up when he found out it was him, but now thinking about it - it was similar in the final 5 of Season 1 when the vote was him, he really didn't campaign and just accepted it. He is still great, dedicated player that will be missed.

Laborie Tribe: Oh god. Holy hell this tribe will be SO messy when they go to tribal. First of all, there's 3 idols. Andrew, Alex and Ryan. I don't want this tribe to lose, I just like everyone too much.
Alex: Probably on the bottom of the tribe at this point. Ryan and Emily have their sights on him, probably a bit in part because of the age difference. So watching Alex idol himself will be ICONIC. Slay me Alex, SLAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY.
Andrew: Up until this round, Andrew had been playing good. Once he told Taylor about the idol, he fucked himself. Because Taylor immediately told Ryan and now Ryan , the person with the most power, also knows the most information and can use that against him. The fact he's in a solid alliance as of now is good though.
Emily: Her slaying her tribemates is so funny to watch. She delivers great confessionals, and she's still got a really good grasp on making social connections. I want her to keep doing well, I could really see her being a winner.
Matthew: Out the gates, I loved Matthew and he's easily become one of my favorite players. He's hilarious, smart, and extremely savvy. HOWEVER, if anyone got the shit end of a tribe swap, it's Matthew. He's already in the minority with Alex, and Alex has an idol that he doesn't have. My guess of now is that Matt will leave if this tribe goes to TC, but I hope he can make some magic happen and stay safe another round.
Ryan: Ryan is in the best spot on this tribe, BUT the problem is, two of the people not with him have idols. He needs to be very careful with that and not get blinded/too cocky because Alex is smart and knows Ryan is a big threat. If Alex plays an idol, Ryan NEEDS to play his or he will probably go home with it in his pocket. Overall, so far so good, he now has the 2 girls completely loyal to him on this tribe which is all he needs for now.
Taylor: She's doing good for herself. Getting Ryans complete trust early was very smart, he is someone that could be a shield for her later in the game. On top of that, she helped create the four person alliance and I really feel like she's not going anywhere until at least another swap/merge. Overall, her stock in the game is rising but like Ryan, she just can't get too comfortable.
Canaries Tribe: Sigh. I'm so sad that Miranda is once again probably going to be the one to leave. I don't know why this tribe, Amos specifically, thinks of her as the biggest threat but whatever !
Amos: If anyone should be thanking the Survivor Swap gods, it's Amos. His ass was GRASS on the last tribe, and this time around he swaps with the one person who actually trusts him along with another duo who Nate has a pregame relationship with in Josh. Good for Amos, I still want to root for him, but he did get very lucky , just don't waste it.
Bodhi: He's so funny. LOL. I think he's absolutely fucked not only in this tribe but in the game in general, probably not making merge. However, his plan to fake an idol is hilarious. He definitely isn't the best game player in the world, but he is someone that's very entertaining and I enjoy watching. Him wanting to work with Miranda is amazing, and I'm definitely rooting so hard for the two of them to make some magic happen and stay in the game. He's grown on me the most this round of everyone in the game.
Josh: Nothing much has changed with him, in my opinion that is. He's still in a great spot, he's still a deadly player, and he's still has power. Good for him. I respect Joshs game and I have a feeling Ill grow to root for him, but at this point I'm really rooting for the two underdogs, Miranda and Bodhi, so I wouldn't mind Josh being dethroned at all.
Miranda: I thought the swap would be Miranda's saving grace, butttttttttt that's not really happening. She's still the target of this new tribe, Amos and Nathan really really really want her out, not sure why other than her being a returning player/threat when she has no allies in the game besides now Bodhi lol. I'm going to keep the #pray4Miranda hashtag going and hope for the bestttttttttttttttttttttttttt. #TeamMirandaandBodhi
Nathan: I am a little annoyed that he wants to work with Josh just because they know each other from another game. Obviously, it happens and I won't hold it against him but I just wish he would play a little different. I don't really have a strong opinion with Nathan at the moment, however I do think this swap , like with Amos, SAVED Nathan's game. Just because now Nathan can make new close relationships with Josh and Victoria, whereas he wasn't going to be able to in his last tribe.
Victoria: I want to root for this one, but she's just making it really difficult. I like her awkwardness in confessionals, but I don't feel like there's many layers there to her game. I just don't want to see her be Josh's little puppet all season because that will just ruin her for me. I think for now she's in a great, safe spot. I just want to see more when the merge hits, or sooner !
Dennery Tribe: Abi and Patrick on the same tribe HAHAHAHaha can't wait to watch this shit show.
Abi: Mess , but a lovable mess. I don't think Abi thinks I like him, but I really do. He's going to bring the drama and I know when this tribe goes to tribal it's going to be a fucking HOT ME$$ , big in part because of Abi!
Adrianne: IDOL! She got one, YAY! Her and patrick teaming up isn't surprising at all, they both do need each other on this tribe and I feel like the two of them have the social relationships to stay safe and get each other to the next phase in the game. Adrianne is a good player and possibly going to be a big threat come the merge, I look forward to seeing what happens here.
Andy: I wish I had more of an opinion on Andy, but it's just hard to know. I think it's really good that he got on a tribe with Adrianne, and he better hope that she has enough sway on this tribe to keep his butt safe.
Eric: I just don't know what to think, like Andy. No real opinion because nothing has really happened with him.
Patrick: KING slaying already. Patrick's in a fantastic spot in the game overall now. He still has Ryan/emily/nathan all super close to him on other tribes, and now on this one he already has an alliance with Adrianne and Stephen. I love it, I didn't know how this swap would go for Patrick but unsurprisingly he's figured it out and in a good spot like always. #GoPatrickGo
Stephen: I lovedddddddddddd Stephen before the tribe swap, and now that he's not only on a tribe but ALIGNED with two of my favorites in this game, makes me love him even more. The Patrick/Adrianne/Stephen alliance will be who I easily root for on this tribe, and Stephen is (besides MAYBE Matthew and Bodhi) the funniest person in this cast and I love his personality and how effortlessly he shows it in confessionals.

The new Laborie tribe is extremely interesting. There's 3 groups of 2, 3 idols in each group - crazy crazy crazy. If this tribe went to tribal council, it'd be a freaking mess.
Alex is on the outs of his tribe, not only is he the youngest but he was also fairly inactive at the swap because it was his birthday. What would possibly save him is that he has an idol and 1) he is aware he is at the bottom. 2) Nobody thinks he has an idol. He just needs to make sure the person he votes for 1)doesn't play THEIR idol or 2) doesn't have an idol. I don't see Alex lasting very long even if he plays his idol. He doesn't really connect with most people and I think a lot has to do with his age.
Andrew is in an interesting position in this tribe. For some reason he thought it was a good idea to let Taylor know he has the idol. Taylor went and told Ryan, who is now concerned about Andrew and is planning to blindside him sooner than later. Although Andrew created that four person alliance with Ryan/Taylor/Emily/Himself, that can keep him safe for the first round but I don't know how safe he will be after, considering Taylor isn't telling him that Ryan wants him out pre-merge. It'll totally be interesting if it comes out, Andrew would go crazy.
Emily is still doing great. She's forming relationships with people, is fairly good at reading her tribe-mates. I think Emily will make it very far, as said before, I think her downfall may be being associated with Ryan if he ever gets dethroned.
Matthew has easily become the standout of his tribe. He was swapped into a tribe where he landed in minority but he has worked his ass off. First, Alex told him he has the idol which establishes trust. Second, he has distanced himself enough from Alex that the Majority has even felt comfortable talking to him about getting Alex out first, WHAT? He has played up extremely well for the majority to like him and not even split votes. He has this plan where everyone votes Alex and Alex votes one person, being Ryan. And it can totally work, if Ryan doesn't play his idol which I assume he must unless he thinks Alex voted Emily. If Matthew pulls this thru, it'll be huge. But he has to be careful because if Alex and Ryan play their idol, all votes are canceled and Matthew goes home.
Ryan has reached the level of being too comfortable and wanting to pull moves just for the hell of it and that will be his downfall. He thinks he is so good with everyone that he can take down who he wants. But little does he know that Matthew is plotting his demise. It can be very possible that Ryan ends up losing Matthew and Andrew as allies real quick. Or that Matthew gets caught and Ryan continues to rule. Nevertheless, Ryan is a character and losing him this early would suck but it's nice to see him having an opposition.
Taylor is playing this game smarter than her first time around. She's forming a great relationship with Emily. Ryan and Andrew both trust her and Matthew likes her a lot. Taylor doesn't appear threatening to anyone right now which is very good for her. Her number one in the game is Bodhi which i missed how they got so close. Anyway, that'll be interesting if they meet later on in the game.

This tribe is an interesting one because it's formed of wildcards and people who were in the minority in their old tribe. I actually really like this tribe
Amos really did benefit a lot from the swap, he was guaranteed first person voted out of his tribe. Amos really trusts Patrick which is like WHY, he is the person that wanted you out the most. I feel like Amos biggest downfall, as well as others in the game,will be trusting Patrick. Nevertheless, he is in a very good position in his tribe, he has a majority alliance of 4 and I don't see him leaving while this tribe is tact.
Bodhi is in the bottom and he is well aware of it. He is very funny and interesting but he just doesn't seem to have a lot of time to spend in the game. Him getting voted out wouldn't be a huge thing. He is around for challenges etc but he really isn't getting through with the socials. He thinks that messaging someone once and asking for an alliance is enough, it's not. He needs to really work on forming those relationships that other people are forming while he is offline. Something about him makes me want to root for him because he is a crazy and i lowkey want to see the Taylor/Bodhi duo. But other part, I don't know if he is ever going to get it that for him to do well, he needs to actually interact with players.
Josh is again in a very strong position. He did good aligning himself with someone as loyal as Victoria, she hasn't grasp the scheming part of the game yet which can benefit Josh a lot because she'll always stick by him. I think he is a hilarious and smart which also going to help him along. I want to see him go far, he has a lot to give.
Miranda is again the first boot of the second tribe is she in. I don't know if she's just unlucky or is solely based on she's not around to talk to her other tribe-mates as much as the rest. I understand that the four person alliance in this tribe happened quick but it doesn't seem like she's putting work to find cracks or get in close with people (i may be wrong). But knowing that you're at the bottom and being okay with it D: This game has been difficult for her but she's really funny and has a great personality so it's not impossible to get close to others.
I think Nathan is great, I think he was very smart to use the only person he knows in the game Josh to create that four person alliance. I mean i guess it was a no brainer, Nathan has an uphill battle i think in this game and other people align based on people they know or not a lot so he ought to use any resource he can get at this point. He is very strategic and I can see him getting far
Victoria is staying in the loop which is interesting. I still wish she was scheming more overall but for now she's doing fine, no one is threatened by her and she's making social connections. She'll be going far I believe. Good on her.
