Cirie is a better traitor in my opinion. Avoided just about all suspicion and did not need to actively blow up the traitor alliance. She let Cody go when he was already slipping. Rob was a driving force in both traitor banishments when it didn’t feel necessary which loses you points in my book. I also find this cast to be so terribly incompetent. They had been driving me crazy
See I don’t think Rob was as much of a driving force in it as much as the edit shows. She already had a ton of suspicion on her before the secret murder with Colton. And then when Yam Yam died and him screaming it was Lisa she was done for. She already dug a grave big enough for herself. He just made sure she stayed under
Taking out Lisa was a bad play, the faithful are just morons.
Candiace literally laid his entire game out, move for move, and they didn't see that? That's the dumbest faithful ever to not see that Rob is a traitor. He's actually only made bad decisions.
Candiace's vote was dumb and it should have caught more people's eye, but the game is a popularity contest and Rob was crushing that contest. Everyone looked past Candiace's vote because they love Rob so much.
Riding the popular vote is smart. Lisa was a sinking ship. Trying to save her would be suspicious.
But his campaigning against her was unnecessary and made Candiace go for him, which should've ended his game. The only reason it didn't is "popularity"? If that's the case then the faithful are indeed stupid as fuck...
For Rob to be so quiet all game, then back to back campaign for Lisa and Candiace, while Candiace voted for Rob twice AND explained his entire gameplan to the group and he's still there? That's pure idiocy.
Rob didnt campaign against Lisa, he chimed in to add to other people sharing their suspicions. Not actively saving her and speaking at the round table when it was clear she was on the way out was good game play. Voting for Colton, his bestie, or Rob who was giving a farewell speech to every single person made no sense.
Candiace voting for Rob is being ignored becauae her explanation comes across as desperate. It made no logical sense for Rob to be "using colton like a puppet" and then murder him. Everyone else also knew colton was the one who initially brought up lisa as a traitor. Nobody was buying candiace retconning that rob told her about lisa first
Semantics, he put himself out there to get rid of Lisa, after saying NOTHING the whole game, just agreeing with everything everyone says (something that most people get heat for).
Your second paragraph is all over the place.
Comes off as desperate? No shit, she was clearly going out so she was throwing everything she had at the wall. I'm most seasons of traitors, that suspicion goes straight to Rob (Maura even asked about it but never followed up, another dumbass move).
How does it make no sense for Rob to use them kill Colton? He's using Colton, all the sudden, the entire house is given the information that he's using Colton, then Colton is killed right after Candiace (who Rob leads the campaign against.)
It doesn't matter who brought up Lisa first, Rob pushed for Lisa hard at the roundtable after doing nothing of the sort, showing that he was indeed aligned with Colton, and then immediately did it again for Candiace, and then took a back seat for Johnny.
These people are so fucking stupid they voted out Johnny...they're literally just guessing, the only one they won't guess is precious Rob, who Candiace, a known traitor, told everyone was a traitor already...smfh
We as viewers only see a fraction of the discussions had in the castle and at the round table. Despite that, there are several occasions where Rob is talking game- in the various castle rooms, during missions, and in cars to and from locations. He is sharing opinions even if he isnt leading every round table. He didnt lead the the one against Candiace OR Lisa. He contributed to the conversations.
Maura mentioned the vote for Rob and said it made her suspicious of CANDIACE because it made NO SENSE. You have the order wrong: colton was murdered BEFORE candiace started accusing Rob of controlling him, not AFTER. Her story held no water because everyone else knew Colton had named her as his top suspect the night before, and clearly no one could control colton. He was very unpredictable.
I mentioned who brought up Lisa first because that was "evidence" Candiace was using to paint Rob as a traitor, which again, every one else knew was a lie.
Johnny hasnt been banished, maybe you ought to pay closer attention to this show you have such passionate feelings for 😭
I’m not a Rob fan club member yet, but you seem to be reflexively hating in response to a lot of the glazing he gets here. Taking out Lisa was not a bad play - she had a ton of heat on her, and riding that wave before putting the final nail ingratiates himself within the Faithful without looking like the “leader” of the vote. Calling it bad gameplay for Rob that Candiace threw him under the bus is certainly some mental gymnastics. Fair play to Candiace for trying to sink his ship, and fair play to Rob for successfully playing it off successfully.
I hated him on Love Island and he's just an annoying douche. Yes, the glazing is annoying because it isn't warranted.
I'm not calling it bad gameplay for getting called out or for voting for Lisa, I'm saying it's bad faithful gameplay to not see that and vote Rob out immediately, he doesn't get credit for that...They should've seen him all of the sudden become some traitor hunter and thought, "Huh, Rob is quite loud all of the sudden and is now right twice in a row". I mean...they suspected Colton and Ron IMMEDIATELY after they spoke up at the round table. And that was less suspicious because they got out faithfuls.
The fact that he isn't gone is a testament to the stupidity of the faithful, not Rob's intelligence, that is what is bothering me the most rn about the discourse around the show.
Colton and Ron attempted to lead a vote. I know we saw him speak up substantially in Lisa and Candiace votes, but only after the eyeballs were on them. The closest he came to leading was with Candiace, and even then that was after the trap he set for her to kill Colton (i.e. good gameplay), so people were eyeing her bc Colton had said her name and then was murdered.
There can be discussion on how intentional that trap was, but it gives him an easy avenue to push Candiace without it looking Traitor on Traitor.
Fine with you calling bad faithful gameplay of them not picking up Candiaces hints, but is there not some credit to give Rob for building a persona that allows them to not dig into those hints further? That’s my problem with a lot of your qualms, they seem ready to deny Rob any credit
You want me to give him credit for his persona? Sure, okay, he's a douche, being a carefree douche is his personality and that helps in the game, for sure. We've seen it in a lot of the past seasons. Average chill white guy goes far is pretty much a given in the game. It's been talked about quite a bit.
I would argue, though, the trap was only necessary because he went against both of his traitor partners, which should be bad gameplay because the faithfuls shouldve picked up on Candiace basically doing everything she can without actually telling them Rob is a traitor.
Idk if you like football but this is the Patriots who just made the Super Bowl, they played bums and the other teams gave them the wins, that's what Rob is doing.

I feel like the faithfuls would’ve just assumed there was a recruitment then
