Survivor Winner Ranking 

Parvati and yul being 19 and 18 is crazy

Of all the winner rankings I have watched you are the one I agree with the most. There seems to be a kind of groupthink that makes most rankings among superfans to be pretty samey. Thanks for presenting a different viewpoint.

“Sophie wasn’t as big of a challenge threat as Aras” - she won two more individual immunities than he did

Side note: Sabrina built the alliance that dominated the game and got the girls together iirc, Kim however took over once that happened

Love your analysis Gumball! Fantastic! By the way, does anyone else notice the cheeky look on Jeremy's face in the Winners at War background photo lol?

Been waiting for this video, cannot wait

1:34:00 From what I know, the reason why Sarah gets a 3-2-1 there is just 'cause they already knew Sarah would be immune (and Troy if necessary), so it made more sense to just split the vote instead of make a tie, so it's not really as much of a knock to me as most "Needed an idol" moments.

michele that low is disrespectful

Randy also has gone on record that the moment he put the vote for Bob in the orb he regretted it and wished he’d voted for Susie he walked up voting Susie and it was a momentary impulse that gave Bob the win lol Gabon ❤

Thank you. I hope you will create a video about Ranking every seasons.

People are gonna disagree with your list, but I really don’t have much complaints. Dee should be knocked down a few placements like 19 or so. She wasn’t that dominant a winner, at least not more so than like every winner in the top 19 she’s higher than. I’d swap Vecepia & Sandra’s PI game. Sandra took control from F5 onwards & even had some plays before that. Vecepia is the opposite. Maybe put Gabler lower, but I could see what you’re saying if you don’t emphasize too much on his read with Jesse at the end so maybe not by much. I couldn’t really grasp Adam’s game too well, but i’d put him higher than Gabler & Maryanne is debatable, but probably her too. He was messier, and they are kinda similar but Adam was more aggressive even if Maryanne had more control & better position in the end-game - she never really took out many players along the way sans Omar & sorta Lindsey. I’d also say Sandra HvV > Jenna > Michele from best to worst should be next to each other. I’d put Mike higher than all of them since while he did need immunity, he used immunity to control basically every vote he did have immunity.

Love your analysis bro both survivor and TD

This is gonna be good

Michelle that low is so insulting. My guy she has never had her torch snuffed, EVER. That’s not luck. Her winning game wasn’t dominant not suggesting that but the same reasons she made it far in WAW are why she won her season. She’s a top 20 player of all time.

i respect your opinion but Michele being this low makes me think that you should watch her seasons again

Our lists are pretty similar honestly! Few differences, I had Jenna right after Michele (very similar games I think), and I have Danni in the Sandra and Vecepia area with them!

I will say, I don't really fault Sarah for final 6, because they knew that Sarah, Troy, and Brad were going to be safe, so they split the votes.

if you get voted out and win your way back in on a season where that is part of the game, it makes no sense to hold that against you but its hard to rank chris underwood high because of how short his time in the game was

parvati at 19 is a crime… she’s top 5

I personally would actually have yam yam above dee, while yam yam isnt the best strategically, as he wanted to take carson to the end, he is always controlling the vote no matter what other than the sarah boot, whoch even then he had a 0% chance of going out there and he did get twist screwed essentially, while dees f5 round was very bdlad for her. Plus by the end yam yam was finally willing to let carson go. Id group them together tho, with dee being slightly below yam yam

i had no idea tom westman was considered to be an iconic winner

Boston Rob is WAY too high. His extremely low jury win equity already would put him no higher than say 8th at best, even if you thought the rest of his game was perfect (it wasn't). Add to that the terrible cast, being a 4th time player, and being a guaranteed early merge boot if his tribe loses 1 of the final 3 imunities in a row they win or Zapatera does not throw a challenge and yeah. Kim also had a terrible cast but the rest of her game was perfect. I would put Rob about 15th.

your list was already hard to get through as is so when i saw Natalie at #15 i just stopped watching the rest. these rankings are something

Season ranking next? There’s no way I’m ever putting Tony’s 40 game anything but #1

this is my ranking 1. Tony Vlachos (WaW) 2. Tony Vlachos (C) 3. Tommy Sheehan 4. Parvati Shallow 5. Jeremy Collins 6. Sarah Lacina 7. Rob Mariano 8. Mike Gabler 9. JT Thomas 10. Tyson Apostol 11. Yul Kwon 12. John Cochran 13. Sandra Diaz-Twine (PI) 14. Sandra Diaz-Twine (HvV) 15. Ben Driebergen 16. Nick Wilson 17. Denise Stapley 18. Amber Brkich 19. Richard Hatch 20. Adam Klein 21. Ethan Zohn 22. Yam Yam Arocho 23. Tina Wesson 24. Kim Spradlin 25. Tom Westman 26. Earl Cole 27. Dee Valladares 28. Brian Heidik 29. Wendell Holland 30. Mike Holloway 31. Sophie Clarke 32. Aras Baskauskas 33. Fabio Birza 34. Natalie White 35. Maryanne Oketch 36. Michele Fitzgerald 37. Chris Underwood 38. Jenna Morasca 39. Todd Herzog 40. Bob Crowley 41. Chris Daugherty 42. Danni Boatwright 43. Vecepia Towery 44. Natalie Anderson 45. Erika Casupanan

Rob is WAY, way, way, way too high. The fact he loses a jury vote to nearly the entire cast would already put him no higher than 10th, but that is just one of numerous flaws in his game. I might have him 17th or so to be generous, only since his control was top 5 which is worth something.

I love smaller channels because of the tendency for different opinions, but these are different different. I think you were too harsh on players based on hypotheticals that didn't happen, and not harsh enough on jury management. And I agree with knocking players for wanting to take the better player to the end, but the knocks were way way too steep. And the Yul placement was just real bad.

Chris underwood is my personal favorite player along with gabler

I have a question how far do u think yul goes if not for the idol or bootle twist and also u thinks he still pulls in penner

Why do u desagree with mike voting out joe at f10 of S30? Mike was completely outplayed at that point, the only way to get to the end and win is to comp out. With Joe there, and Joe winning those comps, mike is out. If joe won f10 challenge, mike is also out. getting joe out at that point was mike's only choice considering joe's comp prowess

gabler at 32 is wild

Im the biggest Chris Underwood supporter ngl. Im not going to hold it against him that he was on a season with that type of twist tbh

You have Mike and Michelle below Natalie white...totally disagree

Parvati #19?? Ohhh!! he is different, this is not like the another rankings!

Danni and Aras are both underrated

I LOVE how low you put Sandra...she should never have won HvV.

How is Gabler so high...

Sarah above Natalie ?

Chris Underwood is 44 spots too low frfr

Gabler and Ben over Michele is insane Michele is a top 20 winner

Erika over Yul 😬😬😬

jt at 8 is low

gabler planted the seeds for jesse to turn on cody and cassidy to turn on karla his strategy was to take out any threat whenever theyre available he found his way into the ride or die alliance he knew how powerful throwing out a name at the mergatory feast can be his game started out very rough but he adapted every step of the way i truly believe that if he played again he would win

Some people are too low 😭.

#6 king ❤

I personally think Jenna should be even lower

Maybe I’m preaching to the choir but I really don’t think Chris U deserves much credit for his game upon re-entry. Part of why he played so aggressive is because the jury literally told him all of what he’d need to do in order to win. Getting rid of Victoria, using Lauren’s idol, and getting rid of Devens. His fire making is less impressive than Heidi because he didn’t need to sus out that the jury would vote for Devens the way she did with Carson. Also early on he completely ruins his positioning and gets himself voted out even after David told him directly what would happen. Also kudos for having Michelle as low as she is. She deserves it. Comping out and getting bailed out by a medivac, combined with 0 strategic agency the entire season should rightfully land you low on the list. Michelle fans copium in this chat is hilarious.

Lots of substance use whence making this video

my opinion on the new era winners 5th - Erika (I truly believe she is the worst winner in survivor history, maybe if she had a better edit I would think someone else was worse, but from the edit she did absolutely nothing and only won because the jury felt bad that a woman hadn't won in a long time, Xander is by far the best player on the cast and obviously should have won, he made real connections with people in a game of relationships, he was like a brother to Evvie and Ricard, his strategies weren't always the best but he was innovative, he thought outside the box, Erika was just nice to people, and Deshawn acted childish, I cannot name a single thing she did the entire game other than smash the hour glass WHICH NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED) 4th - Maryanne (I would have voted for Mike, but I understand why Maryanne won. Maryanne is a good character, a decent player, and not a bad winner. I have no idea why she gets so much credit for Omar's elimination. From what I recall she hesitated to vote out Omar and had to be convinced by Mike, it was mike's move, Maryanne played her extra vote, but even if she didn't Omar would have still gone home 2-1 on the revote) 3rd - Dee (She is an incredibly average winner, which is why she is in the middle of my new era winner rankings, I personally would have voted for Austin, but I also completely understand why he lost, I think Austin is by far the best player on the cast, but he made one mistake and it cost him the game, if he didn't give the idol to Julie he would have had a very easy time winning the game no matter who he was with at final 3, obviously that wasn't his only big mistake, he also told Dee about the Julie vote, but that wouldn't have been a mistake if he didn't give Julie the idol, Dee really didn't do much on her own in the game, she was good socially and physically, I guess she can be credited with Drew's blindside, but everyone saw him as the biggest threat anyway, he is a brilliant chap, but hes arrogant and not so good socially. At final 5 Dee would have been voted out due to her own refusal to vote correctly if not for Katurah making a mistake (RUINING JAKE'S MOVES AS ALWAYS), I don't know if Dee's strategy of voting incorrectly is good or bad but its funny, she did it like 4 times) 2nd - Yam Yam (He's a better character than player, but hes a good winner, he had a great social game and his alliance controlled the entire game, I don't have as much to say about him because 44 is very forgettable for me, I would say he's an above average winner, but not that far above Dee) 1st - Alligabler (Anyone who knows me knows I am Gabler's #1 fan, I truly believe he is the best new era player, he was able to adapt every step of the way and plant the seeds to take out threats, he made his ideas other peoples ideas and never got any votes cast against him, he played similar to Sandra, Rupert, and Parvati, he was trusted and liked by everyone, he is perpetually underestimated, his strategy was to take out threats when theyre vulnerable and be underestimated, his game is very repeatable, he is my winner pick if he plays again)

cochran is about 10 spots too high

gabler is not only the best new era winner, he is the best new era player

No

Top ten is all men except one

hatch is low
