Well here is the season so many where anxious to see be number 1( lol that would never happen). This season had one of the best casts for a non-all star season of my series.
Selwyn( Red Buffs)
Missy(missalice3)
Cody(Codemeister56)
Sam(DDJOT98)
Jonah(DEADBEATJONAH14)
Chris 'Stoner' (Gaiaphage)
Alan(AlanDuncan)
Sadly the pre-swap was a bit boring and void of blindsides minus Alan. Banff proved to be a physical force winning every single challenge. The outcasts twist was a flop as they failed to re-enter the game.
At this point big blindsides happened with Dan and then major blindside of James. Going into the merge with 10 people left. At this point Snow, WC, Aly and Dono had yet to go to a single tribal council, With the Banff tribe NEVER losing a single challenge. Tadds was the first victum of the 'Banff Allaince' however it would never be that simple.
Jonah was the clear target at the next tribal, however fearing an idol play, Stoner and Dono convinced there allaince to take out big threat Cory. However Jonah would not last long however because at the next tribal the allaince of 5 took out big threat Jonah.
However at the next tribal Dono tried to flip it and save the minority of Missy and Sheath. However WC's idol play saved them causing a tie. Missy in the end decided not to vote and cause a rock pull, hoping to send WC's closeest ally, Aly, out. However her goal failed, and she pulled the rock instead.
With 6 left the duo felt in danger seeing as they where the minority. A second idol play by WC casued yet another tie, however a flip during the re-vote sent frontrunner Dono home.
Now Stoner was the obvious boot here, but an immuinty win saved him, now making snow the easy boot. Stoner however was able to convince Sheath to side with him/snow and the three finally broke up the twosome of WC and Aly, when Aly left.
At the final 4 Stoner contuined his streak and him and snow saw WC as easier to beat for the FIC, hence they backstabbed Sheath who had just saved them, and sent him to the jury.
At the final challenge Stoner once again won, and easily decided t take the third member of his allaince, Snow over WC. Leaving Stoner and Snow to face the jury.
Snow was highly critzied for not playing the game and sheeping, and Stoner received a lot of flack for not really playing until the Dono boot. Both played highly UTR games, however Stoner's was seen as superior and he won in a 6-1 jury vote.
This season is so high because of the Post-Merge. It was crazy with people contstanly flipping on eachother to get ahead, and featured many likeable players, many duos, and the longlasting underdog Sheath surviving to the finale, despite NEVER being in the majorty allaince the entire game.
The only issues with this season are the boring pre-merge, the predictability of the Finale, and a lack of confessionals during the season. Overall however it was a VERY good season, one that can always be looked upon well.

i dont think people understood that i never spoke to aly till snow left us hanging at f7
also cory wasnt a blindside i remember him being an extra vote for majority that was all
though once snow isolated us gaia won all the immunities so all he had to do was protect snow
and her taking out dono at f6(smart imo) got her the number 2 slot
