alright with wild life ep. 4 coming out soon it's time for me to start talking winner predictions. in order to understand my bet, let's first understand why past winners won—and, for bonus effect, why another player who I think really had a shot ultimately lost.
GRIAN. The traffic crown typically falls on the head of whichever player is most able to bend and break the rules to their advantage. 3rd Life, as the archetypal Life Series with the fewest rules to manipulate, was won by the man who understood (and broke) them best—their inventor. Throughout the series, I think Impulse demonstrated a similar cunning and could have been able to pull off a win. His error was failing to establish trust with his allies in a series that was defined by its faction loyalty.
SCOTT. With the introduction of the Boogeyman, Last Life demanded a winner with a level head. With favorable relationships paving the path to regaining lives, there was very little wiggle room for more aggressive, risk-taking players, making this season favor players with high survivability. Continuing the trend of rule breakers, Scott was the only player to weigh the odds and refuse to act on the Boogeyman curse—which ultimately paid off for him. Similarly calculating and loyal is Etho, who lost this win by aligning himself with a volatile group that failed to lend him the stability Scott had throughout the series.
PEARL. It was so, so much easier to die in Double Life than any other series, and so its winner was the player who proved to be able to survive without a soulmate at all. The thing about Life Series gimmicks is that they are always, always the thing that kills you—as such, refusing to engage with them as intended elevates one's chances of victory. Such is the case with Pearl. Cleo also failed to engage with the Double Life mechanic as intended, but lost (ironically) due to her ability to forgive and the endgame belief that aligning with her soulmate was the wisest move.
MARTYN. Limited Life introduced the ability to live longer by killing, and as such encouraged players to pursue maximal violence with minimal risk through traps (namely, falling TNT minecarts). If playing by these rules led to a win, the victor would have been crowned on Skynet. Instead, Martyn broke the season-long strategy and a few series expectations along the way to opt for an absolutely brutal PvP win, which he pulled off by being the only one crazy enough to try. A good few other risk takers had a solid shot of winning this season—namely Joel. Unlike Martyn, however, Joel was unwilling to gamble with the permanent death of his teammates, and this soft spot led to his demise.
SCAR. On the surface level, Secret Life's gimmick asked its contestants to be good at the game—to be good at keeping their mouths shut, good at following directions, and good at reading other players. The kicker with all of the tasks, however, is that the gimmick is the thing that kills you, and what the tasks actually asked was for players to be bad at the game in one way or another. This made earnest attempts at success by far the most risky path forward (especially once yellow names started being able to guess tasks), and as such, Scar's continually baffling behavior worked in his favor. Similarly incomprehensible, Skizz's playstyle lent itself well to this series—however, he was simply too likable. The secretive nature of the tasks in this season brewed a hostile atmosphere in which trustworthiness made one a target, and the Heart Foundation painted a target on him that he was unable to shed.
So. Who do I think is winning (and almost winning) Wild Life?

Gem delivering the rawest lines possible as always
There's something so fucked up and interesting to me about Gem and Impulse trying to find the same page to land on with all their emotions, accusations, and conflict, agreeing that Grian is where their ire should be directed, and then both of them turning to Pearl and saying she should kill him. It's such a moment where Pearl is viewed by them as an attack dog/weapon/etc.
They literally turn from addressing each other to looking towards Pearl, standing further away, who hasn't really been addressed or interjected since saying "Apologise, I've done nothing!" after Scott prompts them to. It's been 38 seconds before she says anything further as the two in front of her go back and forth about accusations, and the first thing she says, confused, is "kill who?"
She then asks repeatedly who and why she's been set to kill, and the biggest point of overlap in the conversation is Gem and Impulse reaching a concordance with "because he stole the cows". When Pearl agrees to kill Grian, Impulse turns back towards Gem saying "yeah, see?". Gem even follows it up with "Good! Murder! Go have it!" and Pearl, zoomed in on her, just does a very flat "Hm."
This isn't even an alliance but a tentative agreement at most, fraught feelings and tension all around, and then Pearl is put in the position of agreeing to murder in order to keep things cordial because blaming Grian is the only thing that Gem and Impulse can agree on? So not only is she seen solely as a useful weapon, she's also pushed to further violence for the collective good? GOD.
very curious at what point during the creative process was it decided that oli orionsound is the perfect voice for tiny snails that want to kill you. because it was the correct decision.
One of us is gonna have to say it.
