"I never said Sugar wasn't an antagonist. I said Sugar sucked as an antagonist, but that doesn't mean she get to escape scot-free for the things that she did."

@ Stryzzar. True you never denied it, but her antagonism got questioned by several people here. And I wanted to point out how silly it sounds that people would think she didn't do as much as any other antagonist but still want her to suffer the same punishment as the others did. Only Sky was her enemy and all she wanted was to beat Sugar. Which she did. On Sugar's challenge, one that she lives for. Her entire life revolves around pageants and she get's eliminated over a talent contest for singing! (does that ring a bell?) Beaten by a rival who she looked down on, her dreams being crushed. That sounds like karma to me. Just because she get's labelled season's antagonist doesn't mean that she needs to tumble into a volcano IMO. She didn't do enough harm to bring something like that on her. Scarlett tried to murder every contestant and blackmail Chris and her punishment was getting a few soft marshmellows thrown at her and spend 5 seconds in a cannon with Max. Why not complain about that instead?

Even though Sugar did some dumb stuff which hindered her team at some points, she never held it back. Her team was so disfunctional that she actually turned out to be the most usefull team member (aside from maybe Shawn). The only time I can remember that she hold her team back was in Mo monkey's. Cause she got a team member disqualified. But did that really hurt the team much? 1. They where one person ahead on the other team 2. Ella was a pretty useless contestant 3. The merge was just one elimination away.

By eliminating Ella she got rid of the weakest member of her team and made sure the other team kept it's most useless member. Even though it was completely unintentional, her move was actually quite genius.

"I said Sugar is worse than Mal, because he could've been good."

Yeah, well he wasn't ;)

"She simply isn't villain material. She's dumb, she's unfit, everyone hates her, she keeps holding back the team, so what reason has she got to be there?"

If you didn't use "she" I would think you where talking about Lightning ;) I have to admit I thought Sugar was going to be filler simply cause she's a Honey Boo Boo parody and when the top 3 leaked I wouldn't believe it. But to be honest I think her concept is actually quite good for a villain. Someone from a very competitive background where playing dirty is the norm. She might not be the brightest but to use her own words she never looses when it matters. She could have been a little bit more villainous, but since she's also a main comic relief the writers probably made a good choice by limiting her role as antagonist. She only "godplayed" once, with her flip coin move. And it wasn't necessary at all, could have been left out and nothing would change. The tree thing was pretty stupid, but that's not godplaying. It was dumb luck, not a skill. Just uncreative writing, like Sky's flying crocodile. Sugar didn't get into the top 3 by godplaying, her rank made perfect sense. The only episode where she ever risked getting eliminated was "twinning isn't everything" if her team would have lost that episode.
