I love Seoyeon, nobody expected her to be on the final lineup, I think not even her, but she grew so much and made nice friends (Yeonhee was heartbroken with her elimination). Now she's about to start promotions with the new tripleS unit, so we'll be seeing her really soon!

I predicted 4/5 eliminated contestants (I thought more people were voting for Sangah) and the top 7 isn't too surprising either. I think it's very discouraging (and unfair) to Queendom team that 'Bad Blood' with it's noticable mistakes still managed to beat the perfectly executed 'Overwater' likely simply due to the popularity of 'Bad Blood' members. Everyone did so well and I would just have liked to see Queendom team get at least one win. Everyone please vote for Rocket Punch and Dohwa!

Apart from their members' popularity, compare the performances. Which one has a boom factor? Exactly. Bad Blood would be more memorable to watch than Overwater because it had more powerful choreography

​@@2lukeanpeople voted for bad blood because of the song not for the choreo Bad blood is catchier than overwater so they feel the choreography more but I personally prefer overwater choreo it was more detailed and more technical

@@into_orbit At this point I'm convinced it's for clout because there's absolutely no way a everyone in Mnet all sat in a room and seriously thought this was a good idea.

Honestly for me, the most shocking one is Sangah being eliminated. I never predicted Soeun too, but still not as surprising. I know Lightsum doesn't have big fanbase, but on every stage, Sangah really stand out and I thought she'd gained many international fans votes. Also, seems like even without benefits at all, the top 7 and last 5 members wouldn't change, but still the rules for the all rounder stages' benefit is ridiculous. The fans who did live voting definitely did strategic voting cause their bias' stage winning isn't enough to get the 20k benefit, all stages of the same Puzzle/Queendom team needed to win to ensure the benefit. Mnet also didn't even announce the first 3 stages result to the fans, instead repeatedly reminded the fans that the winner might be able to be overthrown by the result of dance stages, basically nailed the coffin for the team with weaker fandoms (in this case Queendom) 😮‍💨

im kinda hoping they send elly to idga bcz she suits the concept and MOST IMPORTANTLY, she will receive an angel edit for sure and might carry her to the final bcz her ranking rn is 19th yall its very not safe. The next elimination will reduce them from 21 to 14

You are right. I like the combination of Elly and Hwiseo

I predict the two big winners from the show will be H1-KEY and Rocket Punch. Hwiseo is the MVP and Rocket Punch members are gaining popularity, especially Yeonhee and Juri who ranked high with zero benefit for the first and just one for the second. For the final lineup, i still think Athena Snap team is the best combination so I hope it will be the final lineup.

Honestly there shouldn't have been eliminations, especially with the unfair amount of screentime some idols get, like Jooe got the most screentime she has gotten in the whole show this episode, the elimination episode. You just can tell the girls that come from agencies that push hard for their members and the ones that don't or don't even have an agency at all.

Was honestly super shocked about Soeun’s elimination (but not surprised about the others). I kept voting for her because she’s super talented and skilled, and is arguably the second best vocalist on the show after Kei. Personally hoping that Dohwa and one of the cherry bullet girls can make it into the final lineup atm.

The all rounder battle votes were a joke. Sangah and Soeun's elimination , albeit not being my picks, were a joke. The group name just sums up everything that has happened in the last episodes. The only thing I can say is that thank god they reset the votes, I was about to lose my mind if they didn't.

top7 looks good to be tbh. i have been voting for all 7 of them with bora , elly, sangah sometimes. but the most shocking part for me was sangah getting freakn eliminated. like howwww

VOTE FOR SUYUN GUYS !!

i'm over mnet trying to wedge numbers into their group names kep1er was kind of okay it at least fit the planet them but i'm still confused as to why there's a one. zero base one probably works if i tried to care about the group and the show but meh i'm just not much of a boy group person. this is just stupid and was probably a planted suggestion from the get go because i refuse to believe any actual fan would put that in. the seven. the plus sign. its all trying too fucking hard and its stupid looking/sounding. i can't say i'm not surprised about the top seven and i doubt it'll change that much except to throw in a curveball at the end via mnet being shady with its vote counting. this is just a popularity contest after all. ps at this point i'm not even watching the show i'm just watching your reviews. i have no hope for my favorites after the team up episodes. i can try voting but that's not gonna do anything in the end. so i'd rather watch much shorter videos taking out the drama and the stupid editing and adding in genuine commentary and jokes.

Overwater still would have been the better performance even if the bad blood team hadn’t made the notable mistakes. Also…this is the actual worst survival group name mnet has ever concocted.

In my opinion their group name should’ve been Royal-7 (pronounced as royalty) the T would represent the number of queens in the group, that’s why it’s a number seven. Other than that the line up doesn’t look to bad as 4/7 of my line up is there. I would’ve had: Yeeun Yeorum Bora Hwiseo Jiwon Yuki Fye as my final lineup but I wish them all the best. Also, if EL7Z U+P is the group name, then what horrific name world M-NET name the fandom? 👀

I just think they match well and are all close in age. They also have a good team bond like look at Athena and how throughout the show you’ve seen them be super close to each other. This group also favours the ones that are solos and don’t have groups to go back to (minus Hwiseo and Elly(?) I also don’t understand how Fye has made it this far? According to Thai fans she got kicked out of her group for giving away private and personal information about her members and that to me does not sit right with me.

EL7Z U+P (ELZZUP) = PUZZLE 🌝

The number of *L's* Mnet is taking by going with this name is going *up* ...I'll see myself out.

I would very much like to be part of the outrage campaign against EL7Z U+P That’s the worse group name i have ever heard. I too had no idea it was Puzzle written and pronounced backwards as my mind was processing the way it’s written. I genuinely don’t believe MNET takes name suggestions from fans. I’m convinced they just say that for engagement. After this, Kep1er and ZeroBaseOne I know MNET makes up the group names themselves. I don’t understand why they choose an ugly name, I hate it so much 😂

They didn’t explain the group name which is kind of sad to be honest, el7zUp, I guess, is based on a French play of words, Elle which means « she » in French (plural form « Elles » is « they (fem.) » ) . So the group name kind of mean they(girls) are up ! It’s not that stupid of a name. The fact it’s puzzle backwards is kind of lazy on the other hand…

INCLUDE ROCKET PUNCH IN UR COMBINATIONS PLEASE :-(

I was thinking they might try to rig it. But it clearly wasn't. This shows that at the end of the day, it's a popularity contest. Doesn't matter how skilled a contestant is. If a contestant's popular, she'll get votes regardless

Also MNET need to seriously stop dragging out eliminations. This was pain to watch even the recap was way too long I kept having to skip bits to get to the point.
