honestly, kevin’s win is top tier in my opinion just because of how repeatable it was. yeah he didn’t control every vote dan, derrick, and dane, but he essentially broke bc can by memorizing what questions would be used in the end game comps and studying throughout the whole season for them. it’s to the point where it doesn’t matter what he does strategically as long as he can get to the end game, he’s guaranteed to win
One thing I love about Kevin is that he never underestimated his opponents. A lot of the times, people who win a lot of comps start underestimating everyone else; Kevin never did that.
Karen won $20,000, Kevin won just $80,000 more. I don't know how the Canadians pull these prize money amount out of their asses. It's kind of illogical. But I love Karen.
URCHIN SAM , unlike Americans, we play for the title not always the cash. They have bragging rights. I would not say no to $100,000.00 or even $20,000.00 cash.
I think people are confused between better player and most entertaining. The best player is the player who wins the game. As long as they didn't cheat the manner in which they won the game is immaterial. Personally I found the comp battle between Kevin and Demetres was very entertaining. I was on the edge of my seat. Kevin won mental comps (and some physical) because he worked out. Demetres won comps because he worked out. Ika could have worked out more mentally. She didn't. Same goes for Demetres. They knew how hard Kevin was working and he was doing it alone. They had each other to study with. Some people seem to think having to rely on comps to win makes someone a less skilled player. The reverse is also true. Someone who has to rely on manipulation to save themselves is less skilled than players who can win comps. Of the two, between manipulation and comps, comps is the more necessary skill of the two because you can't win the game without winning the final comp unless the person who wins the final comp chooses you. Kevin won the game and he did it as a lone soldier. That makes him the best player.
No lol. It is you who is in deep confusion of what a good player is. Big brother is too complex of a game to simply state: winner = best player of that season (kind of like how the person who got the highest mark on a test does not equal the smartest person in class). Let’s go through the annals of big brother history, a vast majority of bbfans would admit that winners such as Jordan (BB11), Steve (BB17), Ian (BB14), Lisa (BB3), Nick and Phil (BBCAN4) were not the best players of their respective seasons. I won’t even begin about how there are some strong evidence showing that some seasons rigged their winners. This game is not simply composed on winning competition but an intricate web of social relationships, strategic insights and LUCK. Kevin did studied a lot and I will give credit where it’s due. Are you kidding me? Do you not know who Dr. Will, Dan, Derrick, Andy, or Maggie are? These are the some BEST winners that the North American franchise have ever produced. The first three are almost universally agreed by bbfans as the elite winners of the series. Dr. Will was famous for throwing competitions because he knew that he can easily manipulate the other hg to keep him safe. Derrick and Maggie convinced their F2 partners to bring the former to the very end despite losing to final HoH. Competition beasts are not automatically ranked higher than “manipulative” players that you can described; both are just different types of strategies. If Big brother was just about the fittest and smartest then you should just watch the Olympics and math competitions. Kevin was a lone solider because his poor decisions throughout the game. He wasn’t aggressive enough in saving Neda and he threw an HoH comp which put Sindy in danger (and evicted). By the time Bruno was in danger, Kevin did not have the numbers to save him either. You are entitlted to an opinion but man, your opinion is refutable on so many levels so please don't try to sort out other people's "confusion." FYI, I’m a Kevin fan and I love the fact that he won but stating he was the best player of bbcan5 is ridiculous.
It is a very complex game. It takes a balance of talents. Kevin did throw comps early on to stay under the radar. He did form a bond with William that saved him. He was a member of the six. He did form a bond with Bruno. If the point of the game is to win 100K then the best player is the one who accomplishes that task. Most devious player, most manipulative player, most entertaining player, are all fabulous accomplishments but if they don't win the 100K then I don't see how they can be "best player". If BB didn't want comps to play such a big part in the game they shouldn't make them so important. At the end of the day the winner of BB is the one who wins the final hoh and brings a goat with them to final 2.
Like I said, someone who gets 100% on a test doesn't mean they are the smartest in class. Luck is a huge factor in this game even the hgs/winners will tell you that. Sometimes it just being there at the right moment at the right time. If you honestly think accomplishing a task proves that you are 100% internally better than your peers and cannot admit to external influences and luck than your logic is inherently flawed and I don't know how to argue over that. Did you even watch all the seasons of BBUS and BBCAN? You cannot honestly tell me some winners were the best in their respective seasons since there were cases where production twists helped them at convenient times. He was a member of the six, an alliance with pre-existing relationships before season 5 started. In addition, he had a pregame season 3 alliance, another one up. A huge unfair advantage over the newbies. Newbies VS Vets games are always catered towards a vet winning because of production twists and pregame knowledge The only exception is BB14 when the jury was bitter because Dan went a little too far in his strategy (he still made it to F2 though). BB comps are not more important than social games. You are the one who emphasized on that point. Dr. Will and Dan were not the best in competitions, heck Will didnt even win the final HoH (or ANY competitions) and he still regarded as an elite player. Seriously, the fact I have to bring up such basic historic facts of BB and you HAVE NOT refute any of them in my previous posts makes me believe that you only watched the newer watered-down seasons of Big Brother.
I'm not talking about other seasons I'm talking specifically about this season. Ika and Demetres were also members of the six. In this season if Ika were a better player she would have won. She didn't even come close to winning mental comps which were not based on luck or chance. Ika could have gotten rid of Kevin and Demetres earlier and gone with a women's game. Maybe then she would have had a chance to win comps. The person who gets 100% on an exam was the best exam taker of that group. With the exception of Mark every single player that was voted off this season was voted off because of game errors they made and that includes Ika and Demetres. Ika's mistake was depending solely on her social game.
-_- "The Perfect Game" is a techincal term. In order to play a perfect game, someone has to have 0 votes vast against them and win in a unanimous jury vote. It doesn't mean their game was perfect in every way.
Iggy U. Koopa He got a unanimous vote because he was sitting next to Karen lol. Karen.....who bitched and yelled the whole time and tried playing mother that's it. Dmehrbrmeks
Iggy U. Koopa Actually, in order to have a "Perfect Game", you can never get nominated for eviction and have all the jury votes. Dan is still the only person to get a "Perfect Game". I am still hoping someone else gets to that point, but unfortunately, Kevin didn't
Agreed. Ika's gameplay was phemonal, but so was Kevin's. Props to building a PHENOMONAL and DIVERSE cast. It's so frustrating that BB USA can't be as good as this.
@@themightygallium9509 yeah! Didnt hang out with him much personally but i can recall he was very sweet to my little sister, who had a hard time making friends cause she was so shy. He's a very sweet guy, from what i can remember of him, pretty sure he was a counsellor for a little bit afterwards. I'd have to ask my little brothers because im pretty sure they were campers while he was a counsellor
I don't understand why people think that if you're not doing emotional manipulation you don't have a strategic game. And why people don't respect comps even though they are like 70% of the game.
TOP 10 Best Players to ever play overall according to an specific season -Ika (5) -Neda (2) -Cass (4) -Jillian (1) -Kevin (5) -Gary (1) -Tim (4) -Sarah & Britnee (3) -Sindy (3)
Neda has played a much better game than Ika. Season 2: Neda outplayed Ika Season 5: Ika outplayed Neda But despite Neda's game sucking in season 5, it didn't suck as much as Ika's did in season 2. Neda in season 2 was the best BBCAN player in history. Ika only had her social game going on in season 5, and she played phenomenally, but nothing compared to Neda's game.
homie you didnt even have emmet, bruno, mitch, and ofc godfrey. sindy is literally known for how bad of a player she was, gary was useless, sarah stumbled ass backwards into her win, and jillia was overshadowed by emmet
I think Ika did a better game than Kevin, but she was so bad in HoH and POVs lol. So bad that Gary was voted out, he would have made the finale so much better as a finalist.
TheFrozenRider He won HOH & POV at the Final 5 yet somehow got out the person that he wanted to take out least in Dillon. Please explain how he did "nothing wrong"
@@torycrosgrove2542 He wanted to keep Ika and Demetres together so they remain a target, he knew he would be able to win every comp/veto moving forward and was no longer worried about a back door.
@@raidwipe Remain a target?? Not much point in having a target left in the house when literally every single person wanted him out over Ika/Demetres. If his plan was to win every competition, then he should've taken out Demetres because he was his biggest comp threat, yet somehow despite winning both HOH and veto, he failed.
UGH! That Kevin Robert Martin won???!!!! LOL! I'm totally just kidding...I can't not say his full name because of Karen constantly saying it. He definitely deserved his win despite his poor move at final 5, but at the same time, it wasn't the worst idea to put the 2 biggest guys up on the block, knowing one would go home.
He's not even a good player. He's improved quite a bit over the last couple years, but he's honestly a micro/Midstakes grinder. He's going to probably try to get somewhere with poker with that bankroll as comfort but he only got the sponsorship with Pokerstars because of twitch and his streaming. He's really nothing much with poker, has accomplished fuck all.
Sorry, but if you didn't watch feeds, you aren't qualified to judge anyone's game. Kevin is a nice guy and I'm happy for him, but he's not a good player.

Well deserved Kev! First person ever to get 9:0 jury vote! Can't believe Dillon votes for him lol
heck yeah
actually Dan was the first person to get a 9-0 jury vote
He got a 7-0 jury vote.
fred eric true I forgot. just meant to say he wasn't the first to win with a unanimous vote
Him and Dan are the only two in NA history to win by a unanimous vote
Ship the $$$ thats a big pot!

If they tone down the production, take it down a notch, the winner gets a bit more money. At least 200,000 and 20,000 that makes more sense.

@Kristian Yeager definitely not Ika or Dem played the best but Kevin deserved it.
@@jdlee4358 i heavily disagree, ika was way more deserving than kev and i don’t know how you don’t see that

Awesome job Kev i was literally screaming! I haven't liked a person that much since Dan they are legends!
Damn I missed out big time...I went from "big brother audition tape" to "kevin wins season 5"...wow my man multi talented

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh

qalbi uroon the best player that misfired at Demetres & Ika twice & wasn't responsible for a single eviction before that. Lol
Yes Kevin! Great guy. GG WP sir. Have fun!
Those 9 dislikes are demetres/Karen fans
I don't understand why people think that if you're not doing emotional manipulation you don't have a strategic game. And why people don't respect comps even though they are like 70% of the game.
because physical isn’t the entire game, big brother is a social experiment, not a physical one🤨
And one of the best poker players both live and online crazy to see him doing anything else besides playing poker
I'm still disappointed that Godfrey wasn't in this season.
im still disappointed godfrey didnt win season 3
Well deserved. If Ika can't win, at least Kevin should
agreed, kevin had a decent game out of all the players, but ika was way better
I wish there was a love option rather than just a like.
Poker players Where are You ?
I really wanted to see Karen win
why lmfao, fuck that bitch
So happy u won Kev! Well deserved. Hello from Thailand
and that is how you overcome a Triple Eviction curse!
you could tell the crowd wasn't that excited kevin won
U wont win more in tournament i doubt it but now u can playing high stakes finally congratulations Kevin
are you chopping?
i saw pilar miss u both really pili and kiven,god bless u both
You win 500,000 in BIG BROTHER USA
HeyItz! Bows4lifeHannah! While the runner-up gets $50,000; America’s Favorite Houseguest (decided by the public), $25,000.
This is like BB18 all over again except Kevin didn't take Demetres.
I think he would have lost to Demetres although it would have been a very close vote. He would have been really stupid to take Demetres over Karen.
Karen is victoria?
TOP 10 Best Players to ever play overall according to an specific season
-Ika (5)
-Neda (2)
-Cass (4)
-Jillian (1)
-Kevin (5)
-Gary (1)
-Tim (4)
-Sarah & Britnee (3)
-Sindy (3)
I agree with most of that and I think neda is the best player of bbcan
Neda has played a much better game than Ika.
Season 2: Neda outplayed Ika
Season 5: Ika outplayed Neda
But despite Neda's game sucking in season 5, it didn't suck as much as Ika's did in season 2.
Neda in season 2 was the best BBCAN player in history. Ika only had her social game going on in season 5, and she played phenomenally, but nothing compared to Neda's game.
jessica ??? I agree but Ika still slayed bbcan5
LAL013 I think Kevin played better than Jillian. Because he didn't win by accident.
homie you didnt even have emmet, bruno, mitch, and ofc godfrey. sindy is literally known for how bad of a player she was, gary was useless, sarah stumbled ass backwards into her win, and jillia was overshadowed by emmet
to hard to find a lot of episodes this season. dont see any way karen should be there. just glad ika is out and they didnt fix it for her to win.
Kevin is a combination of Dan (BB10+BB14) and Zach (BB16)
no where near dan but most likely zach
@@eletrigo82 nah Kevin is not on the level of Dan ghessling

Terrible winner. Awful finale with terrible editing aswell for such a great season other wise.
Another great season of big brother just to end with a undeserving winner
Ceka D well Dem lost the last hoh
Kent Buchanan Idk why but Dem wouldn’t had been a good winner IMO. He was Ika’s puppy the whole season and he won competitions.
Kevin socks

Me and my sis don't like Kevin damn I like Karen
great story man
You should say "My sister and I"
Kevin was a trash person the entire game lol but he played the game and that’s what counted. Smh litterally the worst person in the show
He doesn't deserve it
