Thread: The Challenge: Battle Of The Seasons - Premiere Sneak Peek

Watching the preview clip, I felt like Team Austin shouldn't be there. They seemed really out of place with all the fresh faces. For some reason, I didn't feel the same way about Alton and Trishelle...

I wonder if I would have felt the same way about Austin if Sydney had remained on the show.

Out of the 32 cast members, only 12 of them are vets (by Challenge standards of 3+): Trishelle, Chet, Sarah, Jasmine, Alton, Camila, Big Easy, Cara Maria, Brandon, Danny, Melinda, and Wes. Dunbar and KellyAnne would have been on the list.

Regardless of how I feel about them, I think that this will be a fun season.

I was really hopeful that Frank wasn't going to be his normal self since he and Zach were all buddy-buddy, but then the first thing he really did was be all like "NO ASHLEY! DON'T TRY AND BE NICE! I WANT YOU TO PROVE ME WRONG, BUT I'M GOING TO WALK AWAY SO YOU CAN'T ACTUALLY PROVE ME WRONG."

I never really had a problem with Zach or Ashley, and enjoyed them quite a bit, so I have no problem rooting for the San Diego team since I enjoy 3/4 of them.

I'm rooting for Las Vegas, Cancun, and Brooklyn. Those are probably my favorite teams.

I love how fresh this challenge is feeling. I also live how they called New Orleans Back 2 New Orleans

This format is pretty interesting… Seeing as one pair determines the fate of the team, it could be in their best interest to throw in the strongest two people in and keep the team full, but if they lose, then the team only has two weaker players…
Or the two strongest people on each team will stick together and throw in the weaker players and have a better chance of making it to the finals. Not sure which strategy to employ, but that’s sure to cause some drama.


By the way... so if the winning team has 2 people, they're making 125K each?

I don't get why they are promoting this surprise mystery team like it is actually a good team. That is like the Victoria Secret fashion show promoting a sexy surprise model, and then Honey Booboo's mom comes out in lingerie.

Just saw the challenge preview. Lots of new people and hopefully good drama as well. The biggest disappointment I saw was Trey thinking about alligning with Austin. I'm like "really"? Overall, I think this is going to be a good season.

Yes, they'd both get 125k

The only problem with trying to get rid of your two weakest players is that, if I heard correctly, if your team doesn't agree on which two players to send in then then power team gets to pick

So, if Brooklyn wants to get rid of JD & Devyn for example who's to say that those two agree to go in. Personally, if I was on the power team and I had the chance to pick I'd always send in the stronger guy on the team and the weaker girl. Best chance to take out the opposing team's top players. For example, if Austin was sent in and couldn't decide I'd send Wes in with Lacey, CJ & Jasmine for Cancun, Alton & Nany (assumption) for Vegas, etc. The one exception would be Brooklyn. I'd probably send in Chet & Sarah because they don't really have an "alpha" male.
