survivor is the greatest game on earth Tony Vlachos is the greatest of all time
Yeah I think you have to. The one thing that MAY hold that back is how awful he was in his 2nd season, but he learned from that experience and adapted beautifully.Tony has to be the best player of all time now no? Totally dominate an all winners season like that is indisputable
Jeremy voted for her and is super tight with her (also was tight with Michele but Jeremy and Natalie have history), Parvati was tight with her on Extinction, and she gave Tyson that Immunity Idol so that one makes sense. I think the other one was Nick? That one seemed odd.Natalie also clearly got votes because she became friends with people on the edge(Parvati was obvious). Michelle played the 2nd best game of the three at the end. But there was a pretty giant gulf between Tony and the rest anyways.
Nick voted for Tony the fourth vote for her was Ethan who also spent almost a month with her on the island. Tough for Michelle to be a zero vote finalist though.Jeremy voted for her and is super tight with her (also was tight with Michele but Jeremy and Natalie have history), Parvati was tight with her on Extinction, and she gave Tyson that Immunity Idol so that one makes sense.

I don't agree with that at all but looks like a few thought that way. She was voted out first, had an Extinction idol to play first vote back, misplayed her Immunity idol she found then wasn't exposed for the last one and made a poor decision for fire making. Even her Extortion advantage she played on Tony strengthened his case. I think it's a bit of a farce she was 2nd IMO.

She could have scouted the fire-making though. Not saying Michele would have done better, but it certainly looked that way in the edit. Natalie said she had her mind made up on Michele but switched it because of the idea of "breaking up that alliance". That type of strategy isn't strong enough to take on Tony. She really needed to swing big I think.There's no right or wrong answer because both Michele and Natalie played really well
She made the right decision for fire making. If Sarah beats Tony at firemaking (which was a coin flip), Natalie has a equal shot at winning the game IMO. If she's not confident in her firemaking ability, it doesn't make sense to put herself in it. You're putting unlikely odds on yourself.
Her extortion advantage is not a negative on her game. She got 6 fire tokens and was able to use some of it to give Tyson an immunity idol, who by the way gave her his vote. It's a win-win for her and Tony.
As for misplaying her immunity idol. Considering who went home and it was the last time she could play an idol, there was no mistake on her part.
That's weird, they didn't show Nick's vote but in his confessional he said "I know how tough it is to be on the outs the whole game". That definitely didn't describe Tony haha.Nick voted for Tony the fourth vote for her was Ethan who also spent almost a month with her on the island.

I am assuming that was just editing tricks that probably cut out a crucial "but" right after that statement.That's weird, they didn't show Nick's vote but in his confessional he said "I know how tough it is to be on the outs the whole game". That definitely didn't describe Tony haha.

EOE needs to end at the merge.
Yeah I think you have to. The one thing that MAY hold that back is how awful he was in his 2nd season, but he learned from that experience and adapted beautifully.
Sandra has really chipped away at her reputation IMO. He's easily better than her.
We saw Yul and Kim come back who both had only played once and had exceptionally strong winning seasons, but they came back and Tony beat them, so you can put Tony over them.
If we're going to count a player learning from their mistakes and adapting, Cochrane coming back and dominating after his first poor outing is impressive, but you can't just discount Tony winning twice lol.
I feel like the one outstanding person you could maybe argue is Earl from Fiji, who I think is one of the best winners ever, so he has a spotless record, but it's just not fair to compare someone who played once to someone who has played 3 times.
But yeah, realistically I don't think you can argue against him. He won an all winners season and dominated in it as well.
No kidding. If Nat won that would have been 2 winners in a row from EoE. It needs to end much earlier and you should not be able to re-enter with an idol.EOE needs to end at the merge.
Anyways is it recency bias to call Tony the GOAT? That was one of the best games ever played. Not a single vote against all season despite being the #1 threat for the majority of it.
