#so i dont think there has ever been an instance of choking/physical attack between competitors before

[shakingparadigm]

hey have we considered the possibility that the reason ivan specifically choked till was because he was mimicking what mizi did to luka in round 5

Yup, pretty sure that's where he got the idea. Ivan got to witness exactly what the consequences were in that kind of situation. He became aware of the near-immediate death sentence, a way to eliminate yourself before the scores are even tallied. Ivan was desperate, and this seemed like the only sure-fire method to ensure Till's survival since he was underperforming. It's most likely thanks to Mizi's outburst in ROUND 5 that Ivan was able to pull off this sacrifice.

#mizi: chokes luka #ivan: New Information Unlocked! #im pretty sure this season of alnst is the most chaotic since it spurred on a lot of debate and controversy amongst the alien population #so i dont think there has ever been an instance of choking/physical attack between competitors before #especially since they released an announcement that extra security measures would be implemented afterwards #its something they haven't dealt with before. #ivan probably suspected something like this would happen to “rogue” performers #but now that he has direct confirmation? now that he's seen exactly how the scene would play out? #how fast the gun is pointed at Mizi's head #well. it's time to take that idea out of the “hypothetical” folder and move it into “plans” #alnst #alien stage #alien stage ivan #alien stage mizi #alien stage round 6 #asks
