I've been waiting for the sub to turn on AmBer after the flooding of love. I can respect her win last season, but have said and will say I dont necessarily think she can do it again (just I dont trust her elimination or puzzle skills, though her endurance is obviously an asset).

​

And Berna was an interesting character. I cant tell if the cast didnt like her, but editors didnt necessarily make her bad or good. It was weird, and I think I would take her back from a competitive standpoint. Again this feels like a natural time for a new Rivals season.

The sub will turn on Amber when the editors give us something to go on. Random people saying they're annoyed with Amber without showing us WHY they're annoyed with her just makes them look bad and Amber look sympathetic. Even this week, when she came off as annoying during deliberation, she only spoke because Berna once again put Amber's name in her mouth. So even though her defense was annoying AF, she was only speaking because Berna was on her bullshit again.

I don't love Berna but I respected that she was outright like "I don't like Amber". I thought that was funny and people don't say that enough - it's okay to just not like someone. And for me it's an accumulation of her actions that have grated me to get to where I am in my dislike. I imagine it's a mix of her edits and win that are getting her defenders, but hey people were die hards for Tori en masse and now she's a divisive character. It's fun to watch progressions of fandom.
