Who Will Win 'The Traitors' Season 3? A Power Ranking After Episode 7

After tonight’s episode of The Traitors Season 3, over half the cast has been eliminated After the first seven episodes, the cast of 23 has been winnowed down to 11. The remaining Traitors and Faithfuls have many more murders and banishments ahead of them as they hope to survive to the end and claim the $250,000. And even though we’ve got five episodes to go before a winner is crowned, we are taking upon ourselves the impossible task of predicting a champion. Because why not?

While we don’t know anything more about the outcome than you do, there’s nothing more fun than a little guesswork. To that end, I’ve compiled a power ranking of the remaining 11 players ranked from least likely to most likely to take home the money. Obviously, there are a lot of moving parts in this game, so trying to determine who will win might be a bit of a fool’s errand, but looking at the cast there are definitely some players who stand a much better chance than others.

After last week’s episode, I ranked Boston Rob Mariano in 9th out of 13, so I wasn’t shocked to see him sent home. More surprising, however, was Derrick Levasseur‘s elimination. I felt confident that Rob wouldn’t murder Derrick thinking it would put too large a target on his back. Rob took the opposite approach, which doesn’t seem to have paid off. 

You can read last week’s full ranking here.

To determine this week’s ranking, I looked at five major criteria for the players.

For the remaining Traitor, the questions are:

• Will they be able to survive the Round Tables without being banished and make it to the end game?
• If they make it to the Fire of Truth, will they be able to convince the remaining players that they are a Faithful?

For the Faithful, the questions are:

• Will the Traitors want to murder them?
• Will they be eliminated at an upcoming Round Table for seeming suspicious?
• Will they be able to suss out the Traitors at the Fire of Truth, or will they vote to end the game with a Traitor in their midst?

Also, remember that this ranking is based on their odds of winning, not just going far.

Who will win ‘The Traitors’ Season 3? A power ranking after Episode 7

11. Tom Sandoval (Faithful)

Last Week: 12th

Tom Sandoval had a slight moment of redemption this week when he led the charge to oust Boston Rob. But there are only 10 other players left, and several of them hate his guts. Even if he makes it to the end of the game, I just can’t see these women wanting to split the money with him. 

10. Danielle Reyes (Traitor)

Last Week: 13th

Without Boston Rob in the game, I’m not really sure where the votes are headed. He cleared out a number of the other likely suspects on his way out the door and people have been suspicious of Danielle’s baffling behavior. I just don’t know how she’s going to manage to survive what’s likely to be four more banishments. There are not that many compelling targets left on the board. 

9. Sam Asghari (Faithful)

Last Week: 11th

As we enter the end game, by my count, there are four obvious Faithfuls: Sam, Ivar, Dolores and Chrishell. If Danielle and Carolyn are smart (which remains to be seen a bit), they’ll murder at least a few of those. I’m not fully confident in the remaining members of that group to be able to sniff out whichever Traitor is left at the end of the game. So while at least someone in that foursome is likely to have made it to the end, I just don’t think we’ve got a winner in that pack. 

8. Lord Ivar Mountbatten (Faithful)

Last Week: 10th

Ranking him slightly higher than Sam just because he seems a bit more aware of what’s going on. 

7. Chrishell Stause (Faithful)

Last Week: 6th

My faith in Chrishell wanes a bit each week. Her voting for Tom this week rather than Rob really showed a lack of discernment that I find concerning. 

6. Dolores Catania (Faithful)

Last Week: 5th

Dolores said at the end of the episode that she’s just getting started in her hunting for Traitors. Perhaps she is about to step up her game, but I also think she could be the one who gets murdered in that chapel at the beginning of Episode 8. 

5. Carolyn Wiger (Traitor)

Last Week: 8th

Boston Rob really did a LOT of favors by sending home the more strategic players. Now the only real gamer left in the mix aside from the Traitors is Britney, who seems to be underestimating Carolyn to a potentially dangerous degree. Carolyn is safe from murder, and I think the Faithfuls will come for Danielle first. While I think she could struggle in the finale, I think she’s got a clear path to get there. 

4. Dylan Efron (Faithful)

Last Week: 3rd

I’ve said from the jump that I think the winner of this season is a Faithful, and the number of savvy Faithfuls remaining is really down to four by my count. While Dylan definitely has his wits about him, his closeness to Boston Rob could be a red flag for the remaining Faithfuls. I think his name could be thrown out as early as next week. 

3. Britney Haynes (Faithful)

Last Week: 7th

Britney survived this Round Table, but if we’re using the logic from Season 2 and the Bob the Drag Queen vote, then Boston Rob would have been trying to throw a fellow Traitor under the bus on his way out the door. I could easily see Britney back in the hot seat this week, since, as Rob pointed out, she is one of the few strategic minds left. 

2. Ciara Miller (Faithful)

Last Week: 2nd

While Ciara was snowed by Rob, I do think she’s got more potential than a lot of the other players remaining. Her alliance with Rob (not to mention the coffin situation) could put her in the line of fire at an upcoming Round Table, but I have faith in her. 

1. Gabby Windey (Faithful)

Last Week: 4th

While Dylan did vote for her this episode, I still think Gabby is in one of the best positions in the game at the moment. Her game didn’t really brush up against Rob’s much, so I don’t think she can get tied to his sinking ship, and there seem to be other juicier targets for the next few Round Tables. Carolyn also seems to really like Gabby, which makes me think she’s not getting murdered. ALSO this is a bit of “long game” talk. But if Danielle gets banished, then Carolyn could recruit Gabby as a Traitor. That’s a duo who could get work done.
