Not a single one has even won a competition and its at the final 5 stage. They have also never been in proper control of a vote as they've been on the ousts or used purely as numbers for someone elses purpose.

Look at it this way, Karen from last year at this stage has won more competitions than all of them combined.
Competition wins don't hold much sway for me really. Is there something to be said for winning out in the endgame when you're on the ropes? Sure, but I weigh a good social and/or strategic game over comp wins any day (probably by a 70:30 ratio). That's not to say Daela haven't had the latter, again I can't comment on that until I've caught up - but similarly I won't hold no comp wins against the other three until I've seen what else (if anything) they've done

I'm looking forward (well, if I can say that about this dull season) to watching Paras actually because it seems people are very 50/50 about her. You have one camp saying she's done nothing and is deluding herself that she's a mastermind, and the other that's giving her credit for avoiding the block with no comp wins and arguing she's positioned herself well and deliberately. I'm intrigued to see who's right when I finally decide to commit to catching up
