KTC The Duel Episodes 7/8: Battle Of The Rising Stars

Keith: "Previously on Keith's The Challenge: MessyJ continued to be outcasted along with Sankey and TheBreeze. While for the pink group, Kemi began to want to play the game more as the game was getting deeper in, only for the cast to be turned off by Kemi's comments and demeanor. At the Daily Challenge, Luna beat Kemi to win for pink while on blue, Coke smoked the competition. The final pick came down to TheBreeze and MessyJ, but with MessyJ having no allies left after KitKat left, MessyJ was thrown into a second duel and called out Space, wanting to face someone strong to hopefully make people not want to go against him. At the I Can duel, MessyJ overestimated his abilities and unfortunately fell short, giving Space the Duel win. At the next daily challenge, KittyCupcake, one of the social pariahs of Pink won a clutch challenge to once again avoid being the target. Kemi was sent into the duel and called out Luna and at Pole Wrestle, both Kemi and Luna put up insanely strong fights, but Kemi was the one sent packing after Luna got the upper hand."
At the Challenge house, Sankey and TheBreeze got into it, arguing over who should go in with Sankey still saying TheBreeze should go into elim since both Sankey and MessyJ had gone in whereas TheBreeze got a free pass.
TheBreeze: "Sankey's logic makes no sense, why should I go in if people don't mind me, you're the one they're annoyed by."
Despite Sankey's arguments, a lot of the blue group still want Sankey to go in. For the Pink Group, Dakota continues to put on the victim act and KittyCupcake just continues to give Dakota ammo to work with.
Dakota: "It's too easy to get KittyCupcake to fall for my ragebaiting."
KittyCupcake123: "If I get a chance to go against Dakota, I'm taking it."
Daily Challenge: Throwback
Competing in pairs consisting of one person from each group, pairs will have to launch one another from a Russian swing into a marked lane of water. The launched competitor must then retrieve a soccer ball on the far side of the lane and return to the start, placing the ball in a ring. If the ball leaves the marked lane, the pair is disqualified. The pair with the fastest combined time wins.
The most recent Duel winner, Luna, will decide the turn order.
Every pair completes the challenge, so it comes down to time.
But we have a tie between 3rd and 2nd so in a tie for 2nd place with 57 seconds each are: TheBreeze and JessieJedi and Space and Dakota

Rainolds: "I honestly didn't think Yoon would be an ally to me, but getting to know Yoon, they definitely don't deserve to be left at the bottom of every safety chain."
Coke and KittyCupcake lock in with eachother
KittyCupcake123: "Coke is probably my best friend out here aside from Luna, I really hope we can both stay for a while."
The Duel: Pole Wrestle
Both competitors start on their knees. They try as hard as they can to wrestle the pole out of the other’s hands. Whoever lets go first loses the duel and is eliminated. The other wins.
Both of them take off, Idolize starting by instantly playing aggressively, trying to rip it from TheBreeze before TheBreeze gets a good grip on it, but this only tires Idolize out, and once TheBreeze sees that, TheBreeze plays aggressively, minutes pass, 1, 2, 3 until finally...

Episode 8:
TheBreeze picks another fight with Sankey over earning his stripes, this time Josh steps in and tells TheBreeze to knock it the hell off since he's been complaining the whole time about one comment Sankey made.
Josh: "I don't get why TheBreeze is letting Sankey get to him like that."
Daily Challenge: Rafty Race
Competitors must race from checkpoint to checkpoint while avoiding elimination by not falling behind. On go, competitors will run to a row of air pumps, while wearing swimming fins, and remove the tag attached in order to claim it and proceed. There are only five air pumps for each group. Next, competitors will race to a row of deflated dinghies where they will remove another tag to claim one and continue. There are only four dinghies for each group. From there, remaining competitors will inflate their dinghies to their liking and swim out to the next checkpoint, on their dinghies, and retrieve an oar. There are only three oars for each group. Then, the last six will paddle to another checkpoint on the water to grab one of four keys, two for each group. Finally, competitors race back to shore where they will unlock one of four chests containing a flag then race to the starting line. The first person in each group to cross the finish line with their flag wins.
