How we feel about each Gladiator: Series 3: Week 3: Cyclone and Giant

Hope we're not all too distracted by American Gladiators this week. I'm still waiting for my account to say it's available so I'm annoyed with that. Anyway, back to the British guys, this week it's two muscular powerhouses: Cyclone and Giant!

Cyclone continues to prove herself as a great addition to the cast, and being the main female powerhouse with the absence of Diamond made her stand out even more. While some of her Duels feel uncoordinated, she has really proven herself with the new events. While I'm not too interested in Everest, you must admit beating everyone before a single tilt is incredibly impressive and she's won both her Destructions, even if she did cut it a bit fine in her second. Sure her Unleashes have yet to give her anything but when she dominates the physical events, having a weakness in the more speedier ones isn't as big of a deal as it could be. I'm also still enjoying her rougher and tougher personality although that is something that I expect to vary from person to person.

Giant, however, has not performed as well as I would have expected. I would have thought the new events would have been perfect for him but he's not dominating them as much as I would have expected, even being the only Gladiator who came in last on Destruction iirc. I'm willing to chalk this down to still recovering from his injury last series but he's not left the same impact on me as he has done in the past. I will end on a positive note though, The way he reacted to his loss on Duel and the interview for the win against the same person afterwards about rediscovering his competitive spark was good and is a great message to the kids about learning from defeat.

What do you all think of Cyclone and Giant?
