In the latest episode of The Challenge: Battle for a New Champion, the season's Chaos segment progressed. Chris C.T. Tamburello was the only confirmed veteran mercenary who was yet to reveal his identity. There are still alliances in danger of disintegrating, and a thrilling mini-final is on the cards.


What happened in The Challenge: Battle for a New Champion episode 13?

In the last episode of The Challenge: Battle for a New Champion, Horacio's hesitation to participate in a social game ultimately cost him when the explosive Getting Tanked challenge was won by the Berna, Corey, Ed, and Olivia quartet.

Unbeknownst to Horacio, Asaf and Michele were deliberately undermining him throughout the task. Horacio was nominated for the Arena during the winners' deliberations, and Olivia did not speak out in favor of him.

As the episode progressed, Jay focused on Olivia, who seemed satisfied to allow herself to believe that Horacio had abandoned her, while Kyland, Colleen, and Ravyn frantically presented an opposing coalition to the formidable squad led by Jay and Michele.

At the club night, when Jay was trying to steer Olivia in the opposite direction and Nurys was trying to convince her that Horacio still had her back, their feud finally came to a climax. Horacio made an effort to reconcile with Olivia, but his efforts were insufficient and delayed.

Ultimately Nurys' act of being afraid prevented Jay from being eliminated. Understandably, she found it difficult to decide between Kyland and Jay. Kyland's side lost because of her burn vote, which she cast in an attempt to avoid having to make a choice.

Colleen would have shouted Jay's name as well if Nurys had. However, Colleen was reluctant to break up her previous partnership until the new one was well-established.

Brad Fiorenza emerged at elimination and pulled Kyland's name. But from the first instant of the elimination round, Kyland had him beaten. It came down to fitness, and Kyland climbed the tower far more quickly than Brad did the entire way. Once more, the $10,000 was preserved and no challenger was eliminated.


What is The Challenge: Battle for a New Champion all about?
