I just want to start by saying while I'm going to roast these cliches a bit, I do still sometimes like them. Any cliche can be good if done well.

Corinne 2.0:

The woman who's personality trait is bitch and nothing else. I call them Corinne 2.0 because unlike the original Corinne, these players have no strategic thought in their skull. Every "Strategic" move they do just hurts their game more than it could ever do good. (Example; Anna from Koah Rong, Angelina, Kass and Sherri)

The Wackjob:

The opposite of the previous trait. These players saw the previous player pick bitch and decided to take all the other traits for themselves. These players are typically free spirited and goofy, but are always a love em or hate em type of guy. They typically either fall victim to the villain very early in the game, or make it just long enough that it breaks everyone's heart when the professional butterfly counter didn't even make it to the finale. (Examples; Debbie, Christian, and Tyson in his first two outings)

The Lawyer:

This guy... "Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury, it is my  duty tonight to inform you that this player sitting right here in front of us is the end all be all of Survivor, he is a godsend from the great Mark Burnett, that the prophet Jeff Probst begged to be brought before us, and the good lord mark said so it shall be. They made the moves, MOVES! BIG GLORIOUS MOVES!!! And for that very reason it is my humble opinion- no... It is pure OBJECTIVE FACT That this player sitting here is deserving of no less than your ever faith, your love, and your undying RESPECT-AH!" (Examples; David from RI, Shambo, Sue Hawk and Eric Cardona)

Like I said, I often times enjoy these tropes both in show and in Fanon, they can be very enjoyable when done right, especially when they subvert expectations and have an arc to them. I'm Not Immune to them either. These players are fun and can be a treat to read or write. I'm just having a little fun, calling them out.
