I’m a little slow on covering the last episode of Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans but since episode 3 doesn’t air until next Wednesday, that’s fine right? Plus since I’ve had time to sit on this I’ve had ample time to think about who and why the next person will be voted off. There’s a couple options for each tribe that we’ve been considering, here’s the rundown. DON’T READ THIS IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED THE SECOND EPISODE UNLESS YOU WANT SPOILERS
Vatu Tribe (Teal)
- Colby Donaldson
- Genevieve Mushaluk
- Rizo Velovic
- Angelina Keeley
- Quintavius “Q” Burdette
- Stephenie LaGrossa Kendrick
- Kyle Fraser – medically evacuated after a likely Achilles injury during a challenge.
- Aubry Bracco
Easiest Vote for Vatu
Genevieve Mushaluk is so dang likable that we think that she’d probably be the easiest vote. She made it to 5th place on Survivor 47, establishing herself as a “cold and cutthroat” strategist. And in the last episode we got to see her orchestrate an elaborate play where she got the entire team together to check the bottom of Aubry‘s bag.
Smartest Vote for Vatu
Quintavius “Q” Burdette has always had a hand in deciding who goes next. In his preseason interviews, Q stated he intended to “start slow” to avoid the chaos of his first season, Survivor 47. He is good at playing the game and there’s no denying that. He could also be considered a huge threat if left unchecked.
Cila Tribe (Orange)
- Joe Hunter
- Savannah Louie – voted out in the second episode after Cirie redirected the vote.
- Christian Hubicki
- Cirie Fields
- Ozzy Lusth
- Emily Flippen
- Rick Devens
- Jenna Lewis-Dougherty – first player voted out after targeting Cirie Fields.
Easiest Vote for Cila
So what do we think? Well if we’re going based on statistics, the most likely tribe to go to tribal council will be Cila since they were at the last two tribals. Many arguments were made for a number of players but the one that stuck out most was the one made for Joe who is proving to be a more emotional player than the others would like. Stemming from the trauma of being lied to on his season, he’s being very confronting when it comes to things he sees as treats. But in doing so, he’s creating problems for the core 4 group he’s part of. That fact makes him the most votable for the Cila tribe. He’s would be the easy choice at this point.
Smartest Vote for Cila
The strategic vote? We’d go with Emily. So far she’s flying under the radar but we all know how incredibly capable she is. She’s not unused to being on the losing team and then flourishing after teams have been re-chosen. In Survivor 45 she ended up placing 7th after an impressive turnaround from an early outsider to a strategic, central player. Known for her direct, blunt, and analytical demeanor, she survived a chaotic, near-elimination on the Lulu tribe to become a key alliance member before being eliminated on Day 21. My theory is if she’s not voted off soon, she’ll be a big contender in the end game of the show.
Kalo Tribe (Magenta)
- Charlie Davis
- Chrissy Hofbeck
- Benjamin “Coach” Wade
- Dee Valladares
- Jonathan Young
- Kamilla Karthigesu
- Mike White
- Tiffany Ervin
Easiest Vote for Kalo
Benjamin “Coach” Wade had a pretty big accident in episode 2. If it wasn’t for Jonathan Young he would have been in a much worse predicament. Although there are boats stationed around the island in case an emergency happens in the water it was Young who got to Wade first. Wade suffered a huge cramp in not one but both his legs. Causing him to barely be able to walk back to camp. Because of this I would say he’d be the easiest to vote off since he’s already showing weakness when it comes to physicality. It would also be to Ozzy‘s benefit since he slighted him with that key he stole from both Ozzy and Q.
Smartest Vote for Kalo
For this we’re going to go with Dee. Since she won Survivor 45, Dee dominated the game as a member of the “Reba Four” alliance. She won the title of Sole Survivor in a 5–3–0 vote. She also won immunity three times on her season. She’s likable and smart. She’ll definitely be within the final numbers if she goes unnoticed and is not considered a threat anytime soon.
