The Genius: Black Garnet Season 3 - Page 4

Wow this episode's main match was by far the worst so far. There was absolutely nothing for Dongmin and Hyunmin to do. The 5 man alliance has to be the first thing everyone thinks about when listening to the rules. Major slip up by the production crew.

Deathmatch was interesting, but I'm sad to see Jongbum go. He was a much better player than the 2 girls who are still left. Ahyoung didn't do a single thing since episode one and for some reason she's still around. Hope one of them gets eliminated next round.

I certainly agree that the 5 man has the advantage here and it seems very very hard to beat the 5 man here. I think you would need to rely on the social aspect/garnets to try and survive if you did end up in the two - It certainly would of been a perfect episode for the 5 man team if the Black Mission had worked! I bet Dongmin was very pleased!

But if you ended up in the eventual 2 man I guess you can try to manipulate the results early to give the bomb to the person on Card 4 instead of 5 ( By doubling up on 2&5) to try and mess with there original strat and allocation of the bombs. If you start messing with them earlier you are more likely to either start making them lose their heads and allocation of numbers or create the potential to start splitting the group with an early 2 bomb.

Also I didn't get a good look at the card backs but with the styling of the cards perhaps there was potential for some Yellow style Clairvoyant reading of card backs to interpret the numbers ? Whilst we do seem to get a lot of games where a majority team can win, these sort of games also seem to create some of the better moments of "Genius".

Anyway - Thanks for the upload and I look forward to the next episode. The game for next week as always looked fun.

Oh god Hyunmin !

I would have been so mad if Hyunmin lost that death match :s

There was a secret on the back of the cards, but it would have been useless in this situation :s

Jongbum was pretty impressive with his memorization, but the deathmatch was not. Still, glad that dongmin and hyunmin are still on the show. I wonder how the next episodes will play out. Good series but I REALLY hate main matches that can completely shut players down. they're weak IMO.

his friend won season 1 so he became interested but he wasn't in Korea.

Actually if they knew they could have used the same number as the 2 weakest links, namely the 2 girls, so neither can win and only 1 token can be given to them, for an easier deathmatch and more probable black mission fail.
