After Kim won her first championship last season, were we due for our other longtime bridesmaid to get hers?! Lucky fourteen seems to be George's number as after fourteen seasons and nine years, George is finally a MTV Fantasy Challenge winner!
- George (124)
- Yasmine (115)
- Jon (84)
- Susan (81)
- Kim (72)
- Victor (27
And what a season as she surged out to a big lead but then had to weather some downturns as her team of nearly all vets -- excepting Derrick H -- stayed quiet in the mid-episodes. But Camila and Derrick made it all the way through the finals, and Veronica stuck around long enough to make a power move -- and even outscore Johnny Bananas. Of course, George's MVP was Camila, who racked up a league leading 52 points (Tori was second with 42 pts) behind a flurry of crying and other Camilanator outrageousness. And it would likely be her swan song with MTV...
In fact, coming down to the finale, it was Camila's mountaintop freak out and cry that gave George a +2 advantage going into the reunion shows. And when Yasmine's CT and Tori were both eliminated in third place at the end of the reunion show part one, well.... George had the title in the bag! So when Camila shockingly won the entire Dirty XXX competition -- with TJ pulling for her -- it was just an extra victory lap for George.
After a league leading seven overall #1 picks, it was a #3 pick that propelled George to victory. Congrats and there is much rejoicing in the Yang household!
Yasmine came in second, with a powerful trio of Tori, CT, and Hunter tearing their way through the back half of the season. She even got some extra fighting points for our controversial Nelson "I can fight one person" ruling, but in the end, her team fell just a little bit short -- even with her first #1 pick ever. Is the curse true?!
Jon and Susan had decent seasons behind their duos of Kailah/Britni and Cara Maria/Tony, but weren't really in contention by the end. Same with Kim, who had Jordan all the way through but was down two players right from the get go as Darrell and LaToya never even scored a single point.
And then there's poor Victor, who had one of the worst showings ever. Three of his players scored zero for the season, Briana scored two points as a replacement but was then dumped. With a team that basically started off in redemption-ville -- along with Ashley quitting in EP01 -- Victor's team was doomed from the start. And to be honest, Victor has been in a bit of a slump lately, as he hasn't won a title since 2013's Rivals II, and has finished last or second-to-last in three of the past four competitions.
The good news is that everyone has taken turns winning a season since Susan (Bloodlines, 2015) and with George now capturing her first title, it would seem like Victor is here to win the next time around! Good luck everyone!
