We finally said goodbye to Joe last week on Survivor 2015 after a very strong showing, leaving what many are calling some pretty weak players. Will any of the remaining nine really step up their game to game enough to earn respect of sole survivor?
Last week I decided to start doing the Power Rankings more on how the players played the previous week instead of who is safe and who is at risk of going. I think it’s more interesting that way. So let’s get to this week’s refreshed Power Rankings list.
1. Mike. I’m leaving Mike at the top, only because he has the hidden immunity idol and he’s been pretty much getting what he wants in the game. I think he will be targeted soon, but also won’t be going anywhere soon.
2. Tyler. He moves up a few spots this week after winning individual immunity and because he’s managed to work his way into the Blue Collar group as often a swing vote, which has managed to keep him safe. Unless something happens soon, though, he will be at the top of the pecking order when the Blue Collars are down to just them, Tyler and Carolyn.
3. Sierra. I think Sierra is staying in this position only because she’s been imprint in so many votes and preventing so many power shifts. What she might be helping make into boring TV has actually helped her game greatly.
4. Carolyn. Here’s Carolyn. Still sitting there with her idol. And she’s actually one of the few people playing with a strategy. It’s not a strong one, but it’s there at least.
5. Rodney. I don’t know what to make of Rodney. I’m starting to think we might see him at the end. He’s not exactly playing a good game, but he’s been lucky enough to remain this long in the game by there always being a target other than himself.
6. Shirin. I don’t want rank Shirin this high, but if her strategy is to appear worthless and get carried to the end (where she’ll get no votes), then she’s doing it right. But again, she does not deserve this spot. But it has to be where she goes.
7. Jenn. So maybe Jenn letting it be known that she’s over this experience and ready to go is part of a new strategy? She knows she has nobody left in the game and will easily go next, but what if someone finds that as a waste and picks her up to help them make a move? Her Survivor life could last a bit longer.
8. Will. As I’ve said week after week, Will is a waste and Will deserves his spot at the bottom. I don’t care if he does get to the end, he’ll still deserve a spot in the bottom. He’s one of the worst players in recent history.
9. Dan. I’m leaving Dan at the bottom only because he’s a horrible player and incredibly annoying. He’s done nothing to make anyone ever want to vote for him even if he does make it to the end of the game. And I think a lot of people agree with me on the annoying part.
How would you rank the remaining nine contestants on Survivor Worlds Apart?
