Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

If it were me I'd have voted for Russell given how much of the game he controlled, even if he didn't control it as much as he thought. People that felt betrayed by him have only themselves to blame.

That said I knew he had no chance and was surprised Parvati didn't win. She played a much better game than Sandra and was no more deceiving or conniving, even if Sandra flew more under the radar. Perhaps her tie to Russel was her undoing.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

If the only goal of Survivor was to make the final tribal than yes Russell should be considered one of the best ever because he has never been voted out even though he plays such a "In your face game" that everyone can see unlike Sandra or the Girl that beat him last season. But he can't seem to get the fact that to win you need to win the votes of the jury WHILE your are making the final vote.

Did anyone notice that at the jury during the final tribal all the guys had beards and looked like they were dressed for a ball game and the ladies looked like they were all models with all the make up and outfits, except for
Danelle who looked like a pornstar.

I wish they would do a season in the arctic or something though.

Tough to have scantily clad babes in the arctic.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

That sucked. So much for the heros. Rupert really messed up by turning on Sandra so fast. Clearly it was going to be Rupert whether the idol was played or not....he got 3 votes. Do we see a Pavarti/Sandra final? How crazy would that be that two former winners get there. Sandra will take Russel out....

i forgot that they do a final 3 now. Amazing that Russel got no votes. I had a feeling Sandra would pull it out. You knew Russel had no chance against Parvati. It was great...that final immunity challenge was ridiculous. I really wonder if Parvati would have sent Russel home if she had won it. She was right about needing to get Sandra out.

Was a little disappointed to see Russel win the fan favorite...just cuz he definitely doesn't need the money. Looking forward to next season. I wish they would do a season in the arctic or something though.

JT wins the vote for dumbest move in 20 seasons.

I think going home with two immunity idols in your pocket is a bit dumber.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

I think the votes will split about 2-1 in favor of Parvati over Sandra(*if* the jury decides to reward strong play).

Russell may not get a single vote given the composition of the jury.

Sandra's biggest asset is the fact she tried to get the heroes to vote out Russell and they didn't listen to her. Other than that, she's been a non-factor in this game.

... and Sandra wins. Trying to get the heroes to vote out Russell multiple times must have counted for a lot.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

Pavrati is absolutely ridiculous at this game.

She deserves to win again but I don't think she'l have enough votes on the jury unless its her Jerri and Russell. That'd be her only shot.

If Sandra or Colby make it...I think they are automatic wins.

I THINK we're going to see Colby go home here...But I won't be shocked at all if Russell gets "blindsided"

[Slap Shot]

Colby has been a worthless wuss (strategically and in challenges) this entire time around - I might have rooted for him if not for that but he doesn't deserve to win.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

Yes he did. And then he lost the $1 million by a 7-2 vote margin.

Vs someone who was liked. Sandra is not.

this is going to be the ultimate lesser of evils.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

Yes, but.
The last show, he made a HUGE point about playing the game better than anyone else.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

Remember that Russell obliterated his final opponent in the last show and got hosed. He may even be more irritating in person than the editing shows him to be, which is hard to imagine but would explain the seemingly nonsensical result last time.

I must be the only person who actively detests Sandra. Everything about her screams "entitlement queen" to me. Didn't get why she won her $1M (the bump on a log strategy) and don't get why anyone would vote for her this time.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

If she was up against Jerri or Colby I agree 100%. Not Russell. I just don't see that jury voting to give him anything at all. He has made way too may enemies.

Yes, but.

The last show, he made a HUGE point about playing the game better than anyone else. I'm not so sure I want to go up against anyone who has played the game so hard from day one when I've not really done much.

People think really strangely at the end, and the one way I can see people not voting for Russell is IF (and only IF) Colby is left. Otherwise, I can see many voting for Russell as the hardest player of the least desireable. Jerri and Sandra largely played under the radar, Parv was of equal evil to Russell.

If the players of this game were rational, and saw what we saw, I'd be with you 100%, but they've done odd things in the past. And a lot of how the game finishes is making sure who you don't like doesn't win, since odds are still pretty thin- I can see Sandra taking out Russell.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

Sandra needs to win the final challenge to get to the finals if she sticks with Russell and Parvati, which has roughly a 0% chance of happening. She won't get to the finals if Parvati and Russell are around with her in the final 3.

That's one angle I didn't think of and it does make sense.

IMHO, Sandra knows that people will see her as a previous winner, and even if she makes it to the end, there's no reason to give her another million. Not that russell needs it either, but I think she hates him so much that she rather see anyone but him win.

If she was up against Jerri or Colby I agree 100%. Not Russell. I just don't see that jury voting to give him anything at all. He has made way too may enemies.

Re: Survivor: Heroes vs. Villians

Why would she want to get rid of the one player that she could beat if she makes it the end?
