The challenge looks amazing! Some things that stood out were: Swift vs Isaac (maybe a challenge) Johnny R and Nany kiss Jessica and Dustin kiss Jordan and Johnny fight Nany and Cohutta kiss Wish they would've shown more of the drama though.

Just saw this on buzzfeed too. Awesome so it's a Duel format but one player is randomly selected and the other is chosen by the winner of that weeks mission. Should be interesting.
Looks pretty good. As for the Johnny/Jordan fight...I never believe a fight unless both people are shown in the same frame on camera. BMP is too good at generating hype over miscues at this point that unless it's blatant it has to be taken with a grain of salt.
I like that Johnny isn't "Johnny" on his jersey on this show, but "Bananas"...it says Bananas on a helmet.
One thing I don't like is that they seem to rotate jersey colors. That's annoying. The name might also be misleading...unless there's some higher power picking people up for teams between challenges the concept of a "free agent" isn't accurate...but to be fair "Rivals" and "Exes" weren't exactly truthful when applied to every pair those seasons.

The missions look good but when will they give the T-Bone type challenges lol
Randomly selected? That is stupid. What drama does that create? How is that fair? Between that and the lackluster trailer I just lost a whole lot of interest in this challenge.

I think this just blow preshow alliances out the window.
The length is just like Cutthroat where the challenge didn't have a specific theme to it and it would reveal too much in my opinion. Just be the first seconds we already know the f12;D
I Like the competition and challenges we seen in the trailer.
But it was horrible for the simple fact that this season doesn't have a catchy name and theme that will attract new and younger viewers of the age demographiv MTV wants by itself like Rivals/Exes. I have two problems with this trailer:
1. Why it was only one minute? When most trailer for every other season are almost 2 minutes?
2. They should have shown more of the drama, fights, ect and not just 5 seconds of it. I feel like this is not going to attract new viewers, since at the end of the day this is a reality TV show most people turn it on to see the drama. This Trailer was lacking all that.
Haha Nia gets rag dolled at the end of that trailer.
Also...maybe the one attached to RW tonight will be longer...encourages people to watch the show and whatnot.

The name is not catchy! They really should have just kept it The Challenge! Thats all I see in the trailer too!
Pinkrose - I don't mean a final 12 final challenge...I mean the final 12 remaining.
That scene with the girls going head to head is very similar to last year on Rivals 2 when they showed a similar shot and we were able to tell who remaining in the final mission / second/third to last challenge.
Here is what I picked up -
The 12 players left close to the end -
RED JERSEYS-
Zach
CT
Laurel
Devyn
BLUE JERSEYS
Leroy
Johnny Reilly
Cara Maria
Jonna
YELLOW JERSEYS
Cohutta
Johnnny Bananas
Nany
Theresa
Face-offs -
Dustin vs Frank
Preston vs Cohutta
Chet vs ??
Nia vs ??
Hookups -
Jordan and Laurel
Jessica and Dustin
Nany and Aneesa
Nany and Cohutta
Nany and Johnny Reilly
A longer preview will be shown later tonight. This is an exclusive clip that buzzfeed received.
Last year US Weekly and Entertainment Weekly both got separate trailers along with the main 2:00+ trailer on mtv.com
we'll get a better look later!

Classy.
[QUOTE=k1989;395323]Anyone else wonder why it is going to be on Thursdays now?[/QUOTE]
Because Wednesday is really competitive for 2 shows taht have been on TV for Almost 30 seasons and 25th Seasons.
Thursday night will help ratings in my opinion, since it's not going against rating magnets.
On Nany defense her kiss with Johnny R look like a True and Dare kiss lol Love Nany but she does hookup a lot and then you guys go hard on Jonna smh

Didn't he have a gf though?! They broke up after he got back... and she was pretty mad about it!

Averey and Johnny broke up before this challenge.... He was single filming this show.

Are you sure because Averey didn't tweet that she got dumped till after filming for The Challenge was over.
It looked like to me whatever team that is formulated for that mission, if you lose, you flip that stone thing and whoever gets the skull and crossbones has to go in. So voting may not be occuring much, besides the politics of forming the best team each mission for yourself and your team
Also jordan and Laurel at around 31 seconds, so that rumor appears at least somewhat true

I am 100% sure on that one

Some of the missions do look like teams!
Well Zach and CT were in red for the hall brawl type thing, so i am not sure if they all choose or what but i think somehow they form a way to decide teams whether it be the winner is a captian and picks first and it goes on and on however many are left, or what, but my guess is the losing team goes into the picking thing to see who has to go in and i guess 2 people would have to draw the x stone to go in i guess or whatever. but not sure how individual misisons would work than, maybe they all are team, but it's still individual becuase in a way the people on your team are only your teammates a brief period it's still all about your own survival
[QUOTE=Livewitpeace;395337]Do you know why they broke up?[/QUOTE]
I don't know the reasons, but I heard because he had trust issues especially leaving for 1-6 weeks. Which was a **** head move of him because she was going through a hard moment on her life.
is it me or is that 4 women going up the volcano thing at the end of it? meaning 4 women made at least a portion of the final? it's very hard to tell if they are guys or girls but id say they look like women
i have a good computer, and buzfeed took like 20 min to load this whole thing, so i have much time to look at freezeframes while it loads, geez...
The challenge looks amazing! Some things that stood out were: Swift vs Isaac (maybe a challenge) Johnny R and Nany kiss Jessica and Dustin kiss Jordan and Johnny fight Nany and Cohutta kiss Wish they would've shown more of the drama though.
I agree; however, it made me exited and now I want more lol
Just saw this on buzzfeed too. Awesome so it's a Duel format but one player is randomly selected and the other is chosen by the winner of that weeks mission. Should be interesting.
