I think Jaime from China should deserve a mention in this thread. She basically controlled Erik and Sherea for the first few weeks. Unfortunately for her, Todd saw that, and sent her home.

Is a player who goes home early for being a strategic threat really "underrated" in any sense of the word? Jaime had the rest of Zhan Hu by the balls and constructed a great plan to eliminate Aaron. She entered the merge with fewer numbers, and the dominant alliance rightly took her out specifically for being the biggest threat. To me, the edit was completely fair to her. She just doesn't get talked about a lot because she really only had a chance to shine pre-merge, and some of her good gameplay is overshadowed by the fact that the played a fake Hidden Idol. Still, I think everyone here recognizes that Jaime was a contender in China, and the China cast openly recognized it in the editing. She's the first woman to go at the merge since Gretchen, which is saying something considering that's a spot usually reserved for threatening males.
