User blog:VeryUnknownFan/A Look at Antagonists/Antagonistic People

So I decided to do a series where I look at the Antagonists of the show, and people who are antagonistic, including Blaineley, Jo, etc.

Alejandro
Well, let's discuss what his overall tactic was to fill the role of the antagonist. Well, from what I picked up, he used his charm and looks to get ahead in the game. In this sense, he is a lot like Justin, but with Alejandro, he uses his words more than his abs. With this, he managed to get rid of or had a part in eliminate Bridgette, Courtney and LeShawna. Remember these are the people he got rid of using these specific skills. He is able to seduce animals to get them to leave him alone, or to make thins easier for him. A lot of people say that he is like Jusitn because fo this.

Another tactic he uses is his manipulation skills, and this is the more promonent one compared to the other one. He uses this to get people to do things for him. He uses this on Tyler, Harold, etc, and it does help him. He uses it to get others to make a dumb decision and to get him further in the game. He tries to manipulate Mal in TDAS, but it fails. He is able to persuade others into a deal or to do something for him, and it mostly works. In this sense, he is like Heather.

What I would say that makes him stand out from the others is that he is EXTREMELY skilled. He is the son of a diplomat and seems to be from an extremely priviledged family. His brother is a soccer player, uncle is a hypnotist, a diplomat father, and such. But you could all say this is a cover up for the fact that he is a villain su. He is given these random skills at random times, just so he can be seen as inferior to the other competitors and it is forgotten about. IN TDAS, he is standing on his hands for 5 of the 10 episodes he was competing in, and it is even worse that he is faking it.

What he also has going for him is his deception and ruthlessness. He managed to get rid of Heather by stealing her Invincibility Idol, sabotaged the challenge so DJ would get eliminated, convinced everyone to vote off Noah when he was onto him, managed to sneak into the produciton room in TDWT to turn Sierra against Heather to vote her off, and he WAS gonna do the same in TDAS, but then he found out on what Mal was doing.

He is definitely intimidating, and does his job as an antagonist well, with his many skills, not being afraid to get dirty (like Jusitn is), amnages it to make it far without benefiting from alliances, makes the ladies and animals go crazy fro him and uses it for his advantage, is extremely strategic when he needs to be. But the fact that his only flaw is if someone is more bad than him and love, and the fact that he is supposed to be seen as perect kind of takes away from his accomplishments.
