#7. Chuck
The very first season presented a horrible start, however, strategic game player and competitor Chuck, gave the season a more intense vibe. Although Chuck was the first winner and almost always on the right side of the votes- he is very forgetful in the series.
#6. JT
JT was a very likable and social player. He survived nearly every single tribal council in the season and developed allies that wanted to rid him, but ultimately he gained the upper hand and snuck his way into the final 3, earning the respect of peers he put on the jury.
#5. Noah
Noah is from a very well themed season. Although he may not have been the greatest castaway, he was one of the best and his connections and physical ability allowed him to grab ahold of the million dollars
#4. Maviel
Although literally one of the best strategists and villains of the series, there's a slight tweak to Maviels gameplay that leaves a bad taste in your mouth. He won due to the first ever ties in series history, and unfortunately he's not exactly the real winner- The reunion revealed that Steve would've been the victor if Ambers vote was re-casted.
#3. Nicole
Nicole had a bright mind and outlook on life in her season. She was wild and out-there and she was strategically fit within her own mind. Nicole's ability to win, even though she brought the best of competitors to the final tribal is what makes her rank so high in the series.
#2. Chael
Who could forget Chael. The man who came into the game with sharp claims and an attitude that was almost exactly like a boot to the face- his gameplay was nearly the same. He wasn't about to let anyone else have the power and his thirst for victory is what makes Chael a fierce competitor on any season
#1. Steve
Steve- the only two time winner of the series. You'd think it would be nearly impossible to have a two time winner among a 21 person cast, but Steve proved once again that he could do anything and take the numbers and use them as his advantage. A powerhouse in challenged and strategies, Steve claims the ultimate ranking and is the best of the best
