Not exactly because of the Pearls on both times it was used this season, it didn't really have an effect. (Mika had a solid grip on the Koror Women's Alliance + Charles while Justine was a free-agent, and because Jef-Charles had a secret sub-alliance with Justine, where Jef was the swing vote in Final Five, they voted Mika off).

Nevertheless, there was multiple alliances that happened here (a tribal and gender divided alliances, and secret underdog alliance), which made it very exciting.
