Who did Player 118 Nick vote for? Hidden Beast Games Season 2 detail sparks theory

MrBeast is known for leaving viewers on the edge of their seats, and the latest episode of Beast Games does just that. While five players have made it to the final round, we don’t yet know who the sixth player will be – but a small clue might hint at which player, Nick (Player 118), will choose.

In the next-to-last challenge of Beast Games Season 2, the final 10 players travel to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Over six 30-minute rounds, they’ll decide who makes it to the championship by voting for the contestants they want to advance.

At the end of each round, the four players with the lowest scores will be eliminated. However, there’s a twist: each eliminated player can use the $1 million they previously won to try and convince another player to let them stay.

During the sixth round, Nick, player number 118, gets the final vote, meaning he decides who will advance to the finale. The episode cuts off right after his vote, but a hint about the outcome might be hidden in a behind-the-scenes video. Be careful – spoilers follow!

Who did Nick vote for in Beast Games Season 2 Episode 9?

Most fans believe Nick will choose Player 195 (Brett) in the next episode of Beast Games, which will give Brett two votes and guarantee his spot among the final six contestants. We’ll know for sure when Season 2 Episode 10 becomes available on Prime Video.

Five players have advanced to the final challenge: Tyler (Player 167), Hannah (Player 99), Jack (Player 58), Auguste (Player 172), and Cory (Player 191).

After the sixth round of voting, Nick, Brett, Jim, and Monika each have one vote, while Kady has none. With Nick as the only remaining voter, his choice will determine who advances, unless he votes for Kady.

Both Brett and Monika appear to be leading the pack, having offered Nick substantial bribes. Monika’s total is now $30,000 (including a previous payment of $20,000), while Brett gave a single payment of $30,000.

Many people are wondering why he made that decision, but some observant fans believe they’ve found a clue in the recent behind-the-scenes feature, ‘Inside Look: Beast Games Goes International (Episode 9).’

The 18-minute special ends with a sneak peek of the finale. In a very quick shot, viewers can see MrBeast walking onto a stage with the final six contestants.

The image quality isn’t great and the stage lights are very bright, but some people believe they’ve spotted Brett standing on stage. While this hasn’t been officially confirmed – it could just be a visual illusion – it’s enough to make some viewers think they’ve seen him.

Beast Games fans highlight Season 2 finale preview 

Someone on Reddit noticed a short, slightly blurry clip from the BTS footage of the show, showing Jimmy walking towards the final six contestants. They speculated it might reveal who received the last vote, and another user responded, confirming Brett advanced.

Okay, so I just found out what happened with that cliffhanger! Apparently, Brett’s still in the competition. Someone pointed me to the bonus episode, and if you skip to the last 30 seconds, you can see the finalists – and Brett’s definitely one of them, standing on the right!

Nick revealed during a live stream that he was aware Monika had sold the coin before the vote even happened, providing further evidence of her actions.

Someone claiming to have closely analyzed the show believes Nick voted for Monica. They say they repeatedly watched the crucial moment and noticed a subtle movement in Nick’s mouth, specifically a dip and rise of his nose, that seems to match the syllables of Monica’s name – ‘Mo-ni-ca’.

Someone else pointed out that Brett appears in a preview for the finale, and another viewer believes Brett would always side with his male allies over Monika, making him the likely person who voted her out.

Someone else jumped in and said they’d heard the same thing, and honestly, they really hoped it was true – not just a false rumor. They figured that would be the best possible result for anyone watching. Apparently, Monika’s already won, so she doesn’t even need to compete anymore.

Brett definitely benefited more than he deserved, but he’s the most well-liked contestant left. He also tried to make amends by giving away some of his winnings to improve his chances of staying in the competition.

MrBeast promises less cliffhangers in Beast Games Season 3

On the Beast Games subreddit, viewers are mostly discussing the cliffhanger ending, and many feel it wasn’t needed. Fortunately, MrBeast recently assured fans in a Reddit Q&A that Season 3 will feature fewer cliffhangers.

Many viewers expressed disappointment with the ending of Season 2, Episode 9. One commenter wrote that the cliffhangers weren’t enjoyable and were the low point of the season. They suggested the creators should trust their audience to come back for future episodes without needing such dramatic endings.

People were very disappointed the episode ended so abruptly. One viewer said they couldn’t believe the game wasn’t finished, giving it a strong negative review. Another agreed, stating the cliffhanger felt particularly unnecessary.

Someone else agreed, saying they don’t like it when game results are left unresolved after an entire episode builds up to them. They felt the previous cliffhanger was effective because it introduced the game, but this latest one felt unnecessary and frustrating.

Most viewers agree this episode didn’t need a cliffhanger because it’s the season finale. People are eager to see who wins the $5 million, and a cliffhanger might frustrate those wanting immediate resolution.

It’s awesome to hear that MrBeast actually listens to what we, the fans, are saying! He really takes our feedback to heart and uses it to make his next videos even better. It’s cool knowing he cares about what we think.

Viewers have pointed out that the creator already addressed this issue on Reddit, stating they plan to avoid frustrating cliffhangers in future seasons.

Recently, MrBeast held a question-and-answer session about Beast Games. He responded to fan questions about Season 3, which is confirmed to be coming to Prime Video.

Someone asked if the show could cut back on cliffhangers. While a few at the beginning are understandable, they become frustrating once viewers are hooked. The person suggested that constantly ending episodes on cliffhangers actually encourages people to wait and watch multiple episodes all at once instead of weekly.

MrBeast asked for fewer cliffhangers in the next season of his show. He also addressed criticism of Episode 7, which received a low 3.5 out of 10 stars on IMDb because it mainly focused on the finalists sharing a meal with their families.

A fan asked how the creators felt when they saw the negative reaction to Episode 7, which had become the lowest-rated episode of the series. They wanted to know if the poor reception was something they had anticipated, or if it came as a surprise.

MrBeast admitted he wasn’t initially thrilled with a particular episode, but he relied on others to help with the storytelling. He realized from that experience, and looking back on Season 3, that he needs to trust his own instincts more in the future.

All nine episodes of Beast Games Season 2 are now available on Prime Video, with the final episode coming on February 25th. Plus, you can learn what Player 148 did with his $1.8 million prize, why Player 21 left the competition, and who the experts are predicting will win this season.
