The Challenge: Best and Worst of Invasion

Now that Invasion is over I felt like this was a necessary topic. Describe a COUPLE (not 10 things) that you liked the best or was your favorite and what was the worst or least favorite of this season (Gamer we know your fav was ashley winning so come up with something else lol)

Best

-Cast: Best cast in a few challenges imo

-champ eliminations being classic elims was great

-intro: idk why i loved the intro/music. Just couldve been better with each cast members photo was shown

Worst

FORMAT- how tf do you waste such a good cast on a shitty messy format. Having 4 uds automatically make the finals without having to face champs in elims was stupid.  Champs uds should've had to face each other in elimitations. Would've been better with a ud paired with a champ or champs captaining team of uds

Final tiimes not being shown

Overall prob 2/3 best season in the last 5

The worst = The monotone host.

The best - 

Return of Shane, Darrell, Marie and Ashley K

Sylvia's debut

Ashley and CT winning.

 

The worst - 

Marie and Bruno being sent home first.

No Champs vs Challengers eliminations.

Best

-CT winning

-Return of Shane, Darrell, and CT

-Classic Eliminations

The Worst

-Champs vs Champs & Challengers vs Challengers

-Zach and Ashley K could have been replaced with better champs (ex. Derrick K & Evelyn)

-Too many episodes (felt very dragged out this season)

Best:

- cast (return of the RR)

- new winner

- music

- eliminations

Worst:

- format

- disadvantages we had in daily misions

- no Champ vs Challenger elimations

- final

The worst was clearly the format. I don't think CT, Darrell, and Johnny should just automatically make the final because of who they are...but the fact that the POSSIBILITY didn't even exist for them to go head to head to head was incredibly dumb.

However, I do sort of like the concept of the newer people having to play their way into the main game...just not to the extent it was done.

BEST:

-Some great new faces (Kailah, Sylvia, and rise of Amanda stand out to me)

-Queen Ashley taking her rightful throne.

-Return of Shane and Darrell. 

I'm probably in the minority here.. but I think the format was done right. All of ya'll seem to forget how the RUINS panned out. Let's be real.. None of the underdogs could have even taken out Zach let alone Bananas, Darrell, and CT. This was the ONLY way to get Underdogs in the finale and to potentially get new Champs.

-Laurel showing a different side of her this season.

Worst:

-Cory skating by to the final and flopping. 

-Nicole, in general.

YES 

The best :

- Some cool fresh faces.

- Ashley and CT winning.

-THE MUSIC OMG  <3 <3

- That classic eliminations

Worst :

- format : Yes the Ruins was a mess, but here the underdogs had really an easy way to the final. They should have figured something else. 

- Disadvantages at the missions, that was horrible, especially that 6vs4, it could have been a great mission. They should have bring more champs ( more epic eliminations *_* )

They should have bring more champs ( more epic eliminations *_* )

I have a feeling that they really struggled to get female Champs. Susie and Sarah are anti-Challenge now. Veronica is only coming back because of Shane/Darrell coming back I think. Paula/Evelyn/Emily are all not down. This is why next season needs to be a team challenge so there's more Champs.

Best:

-Kang Darrell taking out the 2 trash

-Jenna getting sent Home

-Queen Sylvia!

Worst:

-*********

-The second elimination

-Jenna's and Zach Storyline

Best - Amanda and Shane

Worst: Camila, the Zach/Jenna storyline

The first half of the season was drawn out and annoying-- we need the big draws from the start, and we need the possibility for anyone to go against anyone else in an elimination.  There really wasn't any good reason two challengers had to make the final at the expense of any number of champions.  Darrell against the Champ gauntlet were great eliminations... but Cory and Nelson skated by with wins against a pretty soft crop.  This cast had great potential if it hadn't turned into essentially two parallel competitions.

YES!  It was amazing.   Definitely a stand out for me as well. 

BEST: The return of CT, Darrel and Laurel. 

Good casting choices, and as far as format goes it's the best they've had in years.

 

WORST: Theo

Ashley K 

Bruno going home so early. 

Camila beating out Laurel and Cara Maria, but in actuality this led to an Ashley win so I guess I can live with that. Not that I was really rooting for her from the start, but she was the true underdog and her reaction to winning proved this. It nearly brought a tear to my eye, and usually I just watch this show to see some cool challenges, some big bails and a couple freakouts, not to be emotionally moved, but it was just such an honest reaction of joy and shock all wrapped up into her quivering body, and the call home to her mom was a beautiful ending. She's come a long way from her Real World season where she seemed to be a bit off her rocker and a total pisstank.   

Best:

1)Amandageddon unleashing havoc in the house. Having everyone so pressed they were in tears and having casuals so in their feelings. I lived for every moment, such a icon and such a good villain. 

2)Return of king messy Shane

3)Satisfying winners for once! Both CT and Ashley deserved it. 

4)Awesome challenges and eliminations. Loved the idea of doing champs doing the most iconic eliminations + the return of physical eliminations after none on Rivals 3.

5)Anything having to do with Amanda, Ashley, Marie, Latoya, Laurel, Sylvia, and Shane.

6)Ashley K getting a second chance after I never thought production would cast her again!

Worst:

1)Bananas, Zach, Kailah, Cara, Jenna, Cory, Dario, and Nicole. Everything about them annoys me and I honestly dislike them a lot(besides Jenna, she's just annoying with her storylines and confessionals this season)

2)Shane and Amanda being robbed of the final. 

3)The music. I know a lot of people liked it but playing pop music during a supposedly climatic elimination did not get me excited or amped. They should do that heavy metal music again.

4)****** up format. Like seriously they get such a fresh cast then **** it up with some bullshit team format then back to individuals. Bloodlines 2.0

 

Best:

The Bloodbath. Created drama, tension and uncertainty. Just what a challenge needs.

The daily missions were well thought out and added variety. The contraptions were well built and cool (the catapult, the "roll with the punches wheel", the "Fallout" platform was awesome)

Shane

 

Worst:

Nicole and Sylvia with the dumbest move in a season of dumb moves in not going to Tony & Cory's side on Skeletal Fracture. This would have been a completely different challenge if they had not been so stupid.

Nelson talks way too much. I'm also skeptical of his "thuggish past".

The move-in by the champs was underwhelming. They had to scrounge like racoons just to find a place to sleep. Not befitting of champions. They should have been given their own house or had a secret luxury room waiting for them that underdogs didn't know about.

Best:

- Cast. Best and most diverse cast in years in terms of what period they are from show wise. Great returns and debuts. What more can you ask for?

- Bananas, Zach, Cara going home early. It allowed the show to remain fresh for the most part.

- The winners.

- Lavendar Ladies

Disliked:

- Format for the most part. I appreciate we got to see Bananas vs. Darrell but format was too twist happy.

- Jenna/Zach storyline. Actually Jenna all together. 

- Camila.

Best quotes

Camila: "Free the titties"

Worst quotes

Cory confessional during X-it: "We all feel like farm animals, going around in a circle..."   Wtf? When do farm animals go around in circles?

Best:

CT, Darrell & Shane returning - and Sylvia & Bruno getting a shot

CT being ok with showing vulnerability regarding Diem's anniversary & the Loi Krathong tradition (I am not crying, you're crying)

CT winning & Ashley too

Worst:

that champs could only go against one another (Although that did get rid of Zach and Johnny so yay for that part but booo for Cara, Laurel & Darrell)

that Sylvia & Bruno left so early

That no one ***** slapped Cory for whining and said "You know why!" <-- I would have enjoyed that very much!

Best: Format because otherwise we'd get another CT vs Bananas final and Laurel vs a scrub. I don't enjoy watching the same people being handed a final season after season due to friendships and dedicating their life to work out for this show Smile Vets had to survive only 4 rounds compared to the Underdogs potential 8 rounds. 

Worst: Nothing!

Jenna being eliminated by Anika, Amanda, and Ashley was the best thing about this season. Other than Marie and Toya returns along w Shane and D Smile

Nicole getting 3rd place was the absolute best hahaha

Also, I'm so confused. How is it that Darrell, cara, Ct and Veronica are all on The Champs vs Pros and supposed to be on season 30 as well? Could it have been a mix up?

And wasn't Shane, laurel and Zach supposed to be on champs vs pros?

True or False ?

This was the most diverse and interesting cast since the Duel 2 .

Also, I'm so confused. How is it that Darrell, cara, Ct and Veronica are all on The Champs vs Pros and supposed to be on season 30 as well? Could it have been a mix up?

This was filmed awhile back.

Filmed weeeeks ago

Best: Seeing Darrell, Shane, Bruno and Sylvia this season, great music, finally a new winner not the same old winner bullshit

Worst: Well not really worse but, they should of like had the cast in the intro music interacting with each other (after episode 3 when the champs invaded) , Camila's attitude in the final made me want to slap her in the face, Cory in the final (Should of been Shane), the Sore Losers in the final reacting they got Second and Third Place ( Camila, Nicole , and Nelson) . Like WTF be ******* greatful you got money damnit.

Best: Shane and Darrell being brought back, more RW rookies/less AYTO, Zach/John/Cara all going home early, Darrell eliminating John, Jenna not making the final 

Worst: the format, Marie/Bruno getting eliminated first, Camilanator and making it to the end, Camila bragging rights about "beating" Laurel, Darrell/Shane losing right before the final, all the "to be continued" episodes, the 3 day final.

Honestly worst was all of Cory's quotes and anytime he spoke. I rewatched Rivals 3 premiere and the very first thing the ******* said 

Waz going on everybody it's Cory and I'm single.... I'm single I said it again, waz going on world. So hopefully some do these girls take my bait and we'll see what happens. 

 

His basic *** hasn't changed a bit on invasion

Poppin bottles we turnin up tonight.
