The competition has become even more complicated, and the remaining contestants are doing their best in challenges and forming newer strategies to keep themselves safe from elimination. On this week's episode of The Challenge: USA, host T.J. Lavin announced that the algorithm would no longer be used, which meant from now on, contestants will be playing an individual game. However, during the challenge, it was revealed that it was an all-men elimination this week. Fans of the show had their own opinions about the new twist in the game. While they were excited about the game being on an individual level, they were skeptical about the intricacies of the format going forward. The hit series has been top-rated among viewers and widely watched by the audience, who make their opinions known on social media. More than the format, the fact that the contestants have previously appeared on reality shows makes the format of the show even more enjoyable.

I know in The Challenge they eventually switch to just one at a time, but the game design still seems questionable. Every woman is safe -- there are no stakes at all for many of them. #TheChallengeUSA3I thought they'd still be eliminating two players per episode.

While the algorithm again assigned new partners, Tyler paired up with Sarah, shocking everyone. The duo hasn't been on good terms since Tyler blindsided his partner into elimination. View this post on Instagram Instagram Post Back at The Challenge: USA compound, an alliance of strong players and masterminds, Tyson, Angela, and Kyland, had begun creating issues with the rest of the cast members. Domenick promised to make a big move and break the alliance if he won the challenge. In the challenge, Leo and Alyssa were the first to enter into elimination after losing the game. At the same time, Domenick and Cayla showcased powerful skills that made them the winners of the challenge. They had to nominate a pair to go into the elimination round along with the losing team. The Challenge: USA partners Domenick and Cayla had a few options to go through with. They could put up one of the stronger threats to ruin the winner's alliance, or they could go with Sarah's plan of getting some money for the finals by putting her and Tyson into elimination. View this post on Instagram Instagram Post The winning duo decided to go with the plan to break the strong alliance and nominated Kyland and Kyra alongside Leo and Alyssa. Although the first group took the lead initially, a few wrong answers at a crucial point in the challenge cost them their game. Domenick successfully broke off a major The Challenge: USA alliance consisting of powerful threats Kyland (now eliminated), Tyson, and Angela.
