There has been a notable difference between the way The Challenge vets on World Championship (Kaycee Clark, Tori and Jordan and the like) and the MVPs have played the game. As Tori's partner Danny — who has gone against his veteran partner and allied himself with the rookies —succinctly put it: "We're playing a strategic game. They're playing an emotional game... I don't care about your friendships."
Those longstanding alliances, which have stretched across many spin-offs of the competition series, has complicated the game for several players and further more has frustrated fans watching at home, who feel the the franchise veterans are putting loyalties to their friends ahead of their chance of winning.
