Cher was a breakout player during this season. Cher was always willing to talk to anyone, but sometimes rubbed people the wrong way. Many members of the Men's tribe had a fixed perception on Cher, and began to get annoyed of her isms. She was one of the only people to give Lateysha a chance, and voted with her in taking out Mary - although that obviously didn't work. The following tribal, many believed Cher was the next to go due to her vote looking shady to many. Cher was able to form a bond with Slaylah, when they connected over their personalities, saving her life in the game. She kept her head down low after Mary left, a strong move for her because it didn't give any members of her tribe a reason to target her. A tribe swap in the game left Cher outnumbered 3-2 on the new Tulaga tribe, but this would prove to not be a worry for Cher due to the fact of how physically dominant her tribe was in the challenges. Cher survived the rest of the pre-jury without a scratch, and was able to strategize with many different players. The merge was a big turning point in the game for many. It allowed outcasts like Lala to turn the game around, and flip the script on many players who wronged her. Cher, was one of them in Lala's eyes. An underrated part in the game had to be Cher's physical game. Cher was expected to be terrible at the challenges, simply based on her appearance. She was able to prove many wrong, placing in the top 5 for many challenges & going on to winning 2 individual immunities in times of need. Cher never voted in the majority during her whole time in the merge, which is why we felt as though Cher may not have had the best social game. While Cher had an A+ for effort, she rubbed many the wrong way and many already had a fixed perception on her due to past things done in the game. Although knowingly on the bottom, Cher was able to survive many votes where she normally would've went home because of her way to push the agenda of making a move at tribal council. This allowed her to make players feel as though they had to keep her in the game to earn her respect. Cher, after many attempts to crack the majority alliance, finally lost her ninth live when she became the sixth member of the jury. Although she left on day 36, Cher was able to cause many tied votes, and was able to make people go to rocks for her. Cher definitely made a huge impact on this season, and was able to keep her fire burning for longer than many expected.
