survivor philippines: why charisse lost

charisse was one of the underdogs in survivor philippines. based on her profile, having lived a comfortable life and not being an outdoor person, she was one of the early picks to go. but her focus and determination was really great and her social skills made wonders. she proved to be one force to reckon with.

so why did charisse lose?

first, she really has a disadvantage on the physical aspect. a petite girl like her is simply not a physical threat. she never won any of the physical challenges for individual immunity. winning immunity is one of the assurance to last long in the game and being strong physically plays a big factor in this game.

second, the jury likes her and her social skills are great. this might sound a bit conflicting since social skills will take you long in the game. but at this stage of the game, you will think who you can beat at the last tribal council. being an adorable person, charisse can easily get the votes of the jury, thus being a threat to win the title.

third, in her alliance with jc and rob, she was never assured of the final two. after kiko was voted off the island, jc and rob did not trust kaye and cris anymore. but they still voted with them to eliminate vern and marlon. after that, they offered an alliance to charisse. charisse gladly accepted the offer knowing that she is definitely the swing vote. but she took the offer despite never being assured of a spot in the final two. so in the end, jc and rob still stood by their pact and went on to become the final two.

i think the main reason why she was eliminated was the alliance of rob and jc, and they never assured her of a spot in the final two. i already expected that her only hope of getting to the final two was winning the immunity challenge. but she did a greaqt job. i think of all the blogs that i made on why each cast off lost, this one is the hardest to make. this is because i can think of more reasons on why she lasted long as compared on why she was voted off. i think she did play well and i was really hoping she can win this season. hope she will be back if an all star season will push through.
