    taylor is an average player all around, but i believe her charisma and clutch comp wins give her that edge over other average winners. also storyline wise she’s probably one of if not THE best winner ever
  • @lamb9770
    Nah literally every single week Vanessas target went home....
  • @MRrichthe7th
    Here is my input on Vanessa, she has stated the had she won final HOH she would have taken Liz to the end and probably won the game because she would have the votes of Steve, Becky, John, Jacky, and most likely Meg and James do to how much Becky and Steve would be hyping up Vanessa. Also I believe the it was a great move to take out Austin because having a showmance in the final 4 would be very risky especially since Austin was a absolute comp beast who would always prioritize Liz over Vanessa meaning if John won any kind of safety Vanessa would be screwed because John would evict her if he won Veto and when it comes to Austin and Liz they would evict her if John won HOH but even if John gets evicted final 4 you would have both Liz and Austin targeting you in the final 3
  • I agree that Taylor is very overrated. She shouldn't have even made it to the end, for final voting. I agree that the producers gave her a lot of help!
  • @_dahtruthTV
    Unpopular Opinion: if it wasn’t for Monte’, Taylor would have lost..
  • The Taylor Hale one is a bitter pill to swallow. Especially when you call Indy one of the worst players, ever. Omg. Good talking points though and I didn't realize it was onyl 2 weeks she was ostracized...
  • Everything you said abt vanessa just wasnt true, vanessa wasnt directly wanting davonne out, she just wanted to keep Audrey in bc everyone hated her, shelli was the one that decided to go with davonne. Jason also was leading an alliance that was coming after vanessas allies, and everyone wanted her to backdoor Austin, who was an ally for her at that point. Her taking austin out was also really good because austin said multiple times behind her back that he wanted her out. The jury also said multiple times that they were voting dor vanessa, the only one thay was bitter was austin. A lot of your reads on Vanessas game just arent true, and while i think she has problems with her game, she easily played the best game of the season. With taylor... im a mixed bag on her, i do think she played the best game of the season, but thats because bb24 was really lacking in gameplay. Taylor is a lower middle tier winner, and she has some positives in her social game, but i dont like her strategic game, especially her first hoh. I think you should've mentioned ppl like janelle, dick, or paul. I think all 3 of them get way too much praise
  • @Dylanvillar172
    Nah I’d disagree with Taylor she was able to come back from a lot of snaking and bullying and it went for about like 5 weeks and then still people being mad at her the whole way
  • @randomnerd2332
    my opinion on your list: 1. Ian- this is definitely one that I agree with, while Ian id definitely one of the most likeable winners he is massively lucky his season, had he not get that 2nd veto he would've been evicted the week of Dan's funeral. I think Ian didn't make a single strategic decision on his own (even flipping on Boogie required Dan & Britney). 2. Kaysar- i'm not gonna argue that Kaysar is some great player considering he has never even made it to jury but that is the magic of Kaysar, he is our favorite prejuror. on BB6 while in hindsight it's easy to argue that he should've evicted Maggie over Cappy when in that situation at that moment it was the right move to take out Cappy. Maggie was not really an active player prior to Cappy's eviction & even wanted to leave instead of him while Cappy was still the clear leader of his side. It is important to note that every single member of The Friendship voted to evict Maggie over Cappy showing who they valued more. While Magge did an excellent job of weaponizing Cappy's eviction afterwards & showed what a great player she was after he left Cappy was still the figurehead to that alliance. So while I would agree that Kaysar isn't really a good player I do think he deserves his status as a prejury icon. 3. Vanessa- there is just so much u are getting wrong about Vanessa's game.While Vanessa's poor social skills would cost her a win in F2 in a good amount of seasons, that jury REALLY respected her game. If u go back & watch the BB17 jury segments that jury really respected Vanessa's game (except for Austin). Even when Austin came into the house bitter that jury pushed back on him about it. Even at the jury roundtable Steve's closest ally Johnny Mac practically said he would vote Vanessa over Steve as he saw Vanessa as the clear better player. In post-season interviews right after BB17 everybody said Vanessa would've wiped the floor against either Steve or Liz in a 7-2 vote if she made F2. U also are wrong on a good amount of Vanessa's moves in BB17. For example she targeted Da'Vonne instead of Audrey that week due to the fact that Shelli (one of Vanessa's closest allies) was the HOH that week & Shelli had a good relationship with Audrey where she wouldn't target her on that HOH while Da'Vonne had a falling out with Shelli's showmance. Da'Vonne was also on the other side of the house while Audrey was always going to be a shield for Vanessa as an early target. While u critcized Vanessa for backdooring Jason right after using the veto on him Jason was by far the most dangerous player from his side of the house as he had the best social game & was the clear leader of his group as well as being the most strategically savvy person from his side of the house. Using the veto on him earned her a good amount of grace from the house that helped her in Becky's backdoor attempt as she pointed out how she used the veto on him while also claiming that it was Shelli who mainly wanted the backdoor of Jason. Blinsiding Austin was also the right strategic move as it would be foolish of her to go into F4 with a showmance in a HOH she can't compete in as breaking up the guranteed F2 is always the best move in the game. It also helped that with Austin gone Liz wanted to take Vanessa to F2 as Liz has gone on record saying if she won the Final HOH she would've taken Vanessa over Steve. 4. Dr. Will- while I do agree that Will's BB2 game is overrated as a winning performance I can't deny that it is one of the best playing from the bottom ever done on the show. Dr. Will went from having his entire alliance gone by week 4 & being the easy next eviction to making it all the way to F2, a turnaround in game that we really don't see in modern BB. Dr. Will effectively made himself a leech onto Hardy & Nicole as Nicole would say a couple of times in the season that Dr. Will was her most important ally over Hardy who wanted to be ride or die with her. While u can say Dr. Will only stayed in due to him being an easy beat Dr. Will put in the work to make everyone think that & make that the reason he should stay. Dr. Will's BB2 game is about as close to a Sandra Diaz-Twine game as u can get. & in BB7 the fact that Dr. Will made it all the way to 4th despite everyone knowing how dangerous he is is a testament to just how good he is, as had Dr. Will made it to F2 he would've wiped the floor with everyone as Boogie was seen as nothing more than Will's lapdog. 5. Taylor- I find it pretty common in the BB & Survivor community for winners who heavily relied on their social game to be discredited ( especially if they are women). People always knock winners like Taylor, Natalie White, & Kenzie down if they are sitting next to a more strategic player which is noticeable to me. The fact of the matter is that YES Taylor did have a great social game that shouldn't discredited for some BS "production interference" garbage. As soon as Indy left the house she had nothing but positive things to say about Taylor despite just being evicted on her HOH in her ineterview with Julie. Jasmine was the same way as in the interview with Julie she talked positive about Taylor as a person despite being one of the more anti-Taylor people. The idea the production interfered with the jury to ensure a Taylor victory is complete nonsense. Turner went on to say after the season that the only reason he voted Monte was because that was who he thought the others were voting for & had he known Taylor was gonna win he would've voted for her instead, showing he even wasn't really that high on voting Turner. as Michael noted all of the moves Michael made his season was done to benefit Taylor as Michael had no need to tell about Kyle at the point that Taylor would've been evicted. While I don't think Taylor is probaly a top 25 player of all-time I think it is time that winners who mainly relied on social skills get their due.
  • @TheHelmaroc
    Yes, Vanessa's actions are of someone hated in the game. People didn't particularly like her socially and pretty much everyone recognized that she wasn't loyal and was only looking out for herself. And she STILL made it all the way to the final 3 where she had a 2/3 chance of making it to the end and winning. I feel like if anything that makes her game look BETTER, not worse.
  • @tdcustoms2283
    I don’t think Taylor is overrated at all but just my opinion, there is a video called the sword about Taylor explaining how she won and her social game was amazing
  • Will wasn’t great in 2 but he controlled all stars. All stars is a top tier season and they wanted to get rid of Will right away. Him almost winning is comical
  • @srasra1949
    Vanessa...I couldnt stand that paranoid rude self centered baby. She was aweful. I would hate to see her come back. Huge bully. I was never so happy to see someone lose. I loved that Steve won.
  • @AuzzieDonkey
    Though I completely disagree with the Vanessa pick, it's nice to see someone finally bringing up Will. Easily the most overrated player to have ever won let alone participated.
  • @lucastoft4948
    I was waiting for Da'Vonne to appear. She was incredibly mid, but people act like she was some top tier player because she spoke with high confidence
  • @mJiTtB
    Ian is overrated? I don't think most people rank him particularly high to begin with, he's hardly seen as one of the great winners. I think he's perceived as a winner who was weak socially, and dependent on winning competitions, which he did win. He did make the correct decision to take Dan to final 2, and to take out Jenn at final 5, forcing Dan to align with him at final 4 against Shanielle. I think some people falsely criticize him for not targeting Dan in response to Dan targeting him at final 6, however, if Dan goes out at 5, there's NO way Ian gets to the end without winning at 4 and 3 with the three people he'd be left with. He probably should have backdoored Frank in the double eviction though, instead of putting him straight up. I do give him credit for the fact that BB14 is easily the hardest season of Big Brother to win as a first time player. Not only do you have to compete against 4 returning players, two of whom are winners, but they also get a 3 week free pass (provided they don't lose all three of their players) while the players were forced to take shots at each other and get blood on their hands. You could argue Frank and Shane were the most screwed by this setup (or Jodi!).
  • @ocho33
    Big nah on Vanessa. I used to think the same. She’s legit the best player to never win.
  • @TreverBeast
    You misspelled Kaysar's name, as well as Taylor's last name, for the Video Chapters 😅
  • @tdcustoms2283
    Taylor was still being bullied until Nicole was out which was week 4
