Beast Games Season 2 Episode 6 sees the player count whittled down to the final 10, but it ends on a cliffhanger that hides who is the final elimination. However, viewers have spotted a hidden detail that may just provide an answer.
MrBeast’s competition series returned to Prime Video earlier this month, kicking off with 200 players – 100 of the strongest and 100 of the smartest he could find. They take part in a series of games to determine who will be the sole winner of a whopping $5 million prize.
But as was the case with the first chapter, Beast Games Season 2 has been packed with plenty of twists along the way, including a coin that could potentially double the prize pot to $10 million, and a Survivor crossover that saw one player bag a $1.8 million island.
By the end of Episode 6, the strongest and smartest players have been determined through a series of challenges, and they get to pick three contestants to eliminate – but the episode ends before we get to see their third choice. Warning: spoilers ahead!
Beast Games Season 2 Episode 6 theory may solve eliminated player mystery
Even though we don’t see who is eliminated at the end, players think they’ve whittled it down to two thanks to a series of clues: Player 157 (Catey) or Player 167 (Tyler).
How they got to this conclusion is a little complex, but first, it’s worth knowing that Player 152 (Monika) and Player 118 (Nick) confirm their spots in the final 10 players after winning the two games in Beast Games Season 2 Episode 6.
They have to pick three contestants to send home, starting with Player 194 (Bryleigh) and Player 162 (Tyler) – if you’re confused, there are two contestants named Tyler left in the game.
The Redditor theorized that their third pick will be Player 58 (Jack), suggesting that MrBeast said, “Nick, are you sure to want to smash HIS heart,” and that it looks as if they’re on the left side, which only has Jack and two female contestants.
However, this has been disproven, as MrBeast actually said “this heart” and it looks like Jack is in the Episode 7 challenge, according to footage shown in the behind-the-scenes special ‘How MrBeast Built A Floating Stage…100 Feet In The Air (Episode 6)’ on Prime Video.
In response to the post, one wrote, “It’s not Jack, it’s the girl who fell exiting out of the cubes,” referring to Player 157 (Catey).
“The angle of the camera is pointing straight at the podium, which means the person eliminated is from the middle, plus Jack is seen in the next episode preview on the BTS extras,” they continued.
“Additionally the sky drone scene shows 3 girls and 7 guys. If it was Jack it’d be 4 girls and 6 guys. So it is pretty much confirmed it is the girl who was hugging the heart with her arms.” Again, they’re referring to Catey.
Not only does the BTS footage provide clues, but one viewer has pointed to the episode itself and the positioning of the camera. You see, in front of the players’ podiums are the words, “Beast Games,” and “Strong / Smart”.
At the 57.40 minute mark, you see Nick bringing down the elimination hammer to the chosen contestant’s heart. Given the positioning of the letters ‘E’ and the ‘T’ behind Nick, it appears to be Catey.
As they explained, “Watch where everyone is positioned at 55:45. And see where Nick is standing at 57:40. You can see from which angle the camera is filmed from.
“At 57:40, you can see on the floor the letter of E of ‘Games’ and T of ‘Smart’. The camera is filmed on the right side behind the contestants but if it was Jack, the E would have been rotated 90 degrees to the left (I hope you understand my explanation).
“So basing on how the E and T was captured from and how the angle looks like, it’s definitely Catey since she is the only one in the middle of the left side.”
Beast Games viewers don’t miss a trick. Another pointed to this positioning, highlighting that there are three contestants on this side of the pitch, including Catey, Player 167 (Tyler), and Player 172 (Auguste).
But Auguste is seen competing in the next challenge in the behind-the-scenes special, meaning it can’t be him.
“In the final image of Episode 6, you can see Nick about to smash the heart… and, if you look closely, you can see his placement on the field: he is exactly just before the E of Beast Games, which is the M word.
“And who are the contestants right on the letter M?… Tyler, Catey, and Auguste (which cannot be, we see him clearly doing a new challenge in the next BTS). So, Tyler or Catey, others is impossible.”
We know for sure that it won’t be Player 172 (Jim), as he’s Monika’s boyfriend after they met on the show. Not only would she want to keep her strongest ally in the game, but the BTS special shows them partaking in a wedding ceremony of sorts in the upcoming episodes.
As for whether it’s Catey or Tyler, it’s worth noting that this is speculation at this stage. We’ll have to wait for Beast Games Season 2 Episode 7 to drop on February 4 to know for sure.
