The reason I rank Dee higher than Jenny is because I know Dee is smart, and I’m not sure if Jenny is. If we have learned anything from Ashley, it is that you do not have to be the best athlete to win, you need to be the best winner. Dee has been a savvy player on War of the Worlds 2. Even though she caught feelings for Rogan, her polidicking netted her a two man alliance of Rogan and Joss where she knows they will have her back. Dee has learned from Wes on how to play the game, and in some ways she plays it better than him.

As long as Dee plays to her strengths and keeps up with the best athletes, she can find ways to come out on top. If Dee can win a swimming challenge without knowing how to swim, who is to say she cannot win a final?

4 Kailah Casillas — 4 Seasons, Highest Finish: 4th Place (2nd Female) Vendettas, 4–1 Elimination Record, Last Appearance: S32 Final Reckoning

I am not sure whether I am underrating or overrating Kailah at this point. It feels like it has been forever since she was on the Challenge. Similar to Nany, Kailah has this X factor that makes you feel some type of way about her and her actions. Kailah is impactful, and people either love her or hate her. I was disappointed when she was disqualified from Final Reckoning as she had shown so much promise beforehand. I was most impressed by Kailah on Champs vs Stars 3, where she kept pushing herself as a competitor, even when saddled with the sad panini that was Drake Bell. Despite Drake having no interest in being on the show (especially at that point), Kailah busted her ass, only for them to come up short in the final elimination where Drake was happy to lose.

If Kailah has been working out as hard as she was in the past, expect her to be coming for the #1 spot. Not being on the show also has its perks. Being located in Vegas has allowed Kailah to form friendships with any cast members visiting the area.
