Ugh, I don't know how many times I have to explain this, nobody is saying Eliza is the best strategical player to ever play the game. She did have a lot of success because she has good attributes of a great player of the game. So does Amanda. But to say Amanda is this phenomenal player in comparison to Eliza is complete bullshit, because in the end, neither won their season. Whether you get 2nd place or 16th, if you aren't the winner it really does not matter, and getting votes doesn't matter either... Theoretically in a game of 16 people with a final 2 you could get up to 38 votes cast against you during the game and still end up winning the game. Obviously this is a hyperbole, but as I said, you cannot say that either Amanda or Eliza is a better player, they both are very good at playing the game.

Say Eliza is hyped up if you want, but what is so unique about her is the fact that she does not create an alliance on day one and stick with it until day 39. She shifts between alliances and goes where her best interests lie. Amanda has this fixity about her gameplay that is so old fashioned, boring, and predictable.

And just because someone may be trying to backstab her first, she certainly does adapt to these situations and puts herself with better people to work with. Name another survivor who has adapted/changed alliances more than Eliza.

I didn't say Amanda was phenomenal compared to Eliza, I just said Amanda was a better player. And I've never said Amanda was more entertaining than Eliza, because that's all subjective. And someone who's changed alliances more? I'm thinking Rob C., Jonathan, Danielle, probably others.
