everybody is ranking all things survivor lately so i have decided to make a blog series ranking the runners-up. a runner up to me is anybody that came in 2nd place in their season that never won. so that means boston rob in all stars and parvati in heroes vs villains wont be included on this list since they both won. this list is strictly for people that came in 2nd place so no yau-man, malcolm or cesterino. also 2 seasons had people tie for 2nd so both players from those seasons that tied will be included on the list. that means there will be 25 total players on this list. im rating them based on how well they played the game IN MY OPINION and who i think deserved to win the most out of the other runner ups. the 25 players in the order of their seasons are:
Kelly Wigglesworth
Colby Donaldson
Kim Johnson
Neleh Dennis
Clay Jordan
Matthew von Ertfelda
Lilian Morris
Twila Tanner
Katie Gallagher
Stephenie LaGrossa
Danielle DiLorenzo
Oscar "Ozzy" Lusth
Cassandra Franklin
Dre "Dreamz" Herd
Courtney Yates
Amanda Kimmel
Susie Smith
Stephen Fishbach
Russell Hantz
Chase Rice
Phillip Sheppard
Benjamin "Coach" Wade
Sabrina Thompson
Michael Skupin
Lisa Whelchel
STAY TUNED FOR WHO I THINK WAS THE WORST RUNNER-UP OF ALL TIME!
Stephen is far and away the best in my opinion. Russell is good as well, but his lack of jury management skills loses him points for me. Stephen lost because he was up against St. JT
