User blog:CheeseBurgerGuy/Who Played the Best Game In Total Drama Island? (A Performance Tier List)

Notice: For those who haven't read the recent update for TDF, I decided that I wanted to take a hiatus on the series as I didn't want to expirence burnout and I wanted something where my upload schedule could be more conistent with during this more stressful time in my personal life. This mini project is what will be filling the gap.

In any of the reality competiton shows which Total Drama is a parody of, the best player doesn't necessarily take home the win. I've decided to rank each of the contestants by how well they played the game, ranking them by who was most deserving of the victory based off their indivual games. The players will be ranked by the following tiers:

F Tier: The worst of the worst. These contestants overall had extremly poor games with little redeeming qualities.

D Tier: Bad. While the contestants in this tier didn't drop the ball like those in the tier below them, there is nothing to be proud of here. The cons outweigh the pros. In general, these players made key mistakes that are too vital to ignore.

C Tier: Alright. I wouldn't say that they played a good game, but there was clearly a solid effort. Flawed, yet had potential. Here, the pros and cons of a player's game end up evening out.

B Tier: Solid. The pros of these contestant's games outweigh their cons, but they had room for improvement still that kept them out of the winner circle.

A Tier: Winner Material. This tier is reserved for players who actually had a chance to win the game based on their gameplay. While maybe not incredible, these are the characters who could argue they deserved it to a jury.

S Tier: All-Stars. If the finalists of each season were determined soley by who played the best game, then these would be our champions. General rule of thumb is that the contestants in this category either actually won the season or got robbed along the way.

Now that I've got all that out of the way, let's get started with F Tier.

F Tier
Ezekiel:

If Ezekiel had just listened to Chris' warning about keeping his mouth shut, Zeke easily would've survived the second (and probably the thrid episode too) with absolutely no problems. It would be so easy to say that Ezekiel was THE worst player in Total Drama history. The problem with that is that he wasn't. For a guy who's never interacted with anyone other than his parents, is anyone really surpised? At least he tried. However, this one mistake still certainly earns Zeke a spot in F Tier as it is too important to ignore and there are no positives to the game he played.

D Tier
