User blog:Wafflefreak/Wafflefreak Top 10: Blindsides

Hey! With my fourth fanon season Survivor: Maldives coming to an end and anticipation growing for my fifth season Survivor: South Africa, I've decided it would be fun to lead up to the premiere by composing lists based from my own fanon series. I'd love to hear your take on each category!

Without further ado, here's my top 10 blindsides.

10. Tony - After having flipped from his original alliance, the castaways he saved from certain elimination turn their backs and vote him out for being "sketchy" after Marcus failed to follow through with what Tony had claimed. (Survivor: Maldives)

9. Liza - Nakota turns on their self proclaimed leader, successfully voting out one of the early favorites to win the game. (Survivor: Canada)

8. Jeffrey - After solidifying a strong final three deal with Danielle and Spencer, Jeffrey takes it one step further and offers Spencer a final two, thus proposing they vote out Danielle when she is no longer necessary to their plans. Unfortunately for him, Danielle was within hearing distance. She then turned the rest of the tribe against him, and Jeffrey lost all his power. (Survivor: Canada)

7. Heather - After reaching her breaking point with the catty Alifu girls alliance, Heather turned to the outsides for their help in blindsiding the leader Jillian. However the plan hinged on Pasha too backstabbing the girls alliance and flipping sides. In the end Pasha refused and ratted Heather out. A tie was forced and the outsiders turned on Heather as an easy vote to save themselves and avoid drawing rocks. (Survivor: Maldives)

6. Merv - After successfully flipping the Nakota tribe on the ringleaders, Danielle and Merv, Jasmine and Benjamin target the hotheaded Danielle. Unknown to them Danielle had stolen the clue to the hidden immunity idol and found it for herself. Due to the idol being played a tie is the final result between Merv and Whitney, in the end Merv was voted off in the revote after believing he had control over the entire tribe. (Survivor: Canada)

5. Rachael - After leading everyone to believe he was defenseless, Alfie played his idol nullifying every vote cast except for his own. Alfie took a shot at one of the two returning players and blindsided Rachael, the biggest physical threat within the competition. (Survivor: Myanmar)

4. Paige - Paige and Bianca were worried about their ally Miranda and her budding showmance with Sebastian. After being overheard talking about blindsiding him, a scorned Miranda turned the entire tribe against the two girls. As the votes were read Paige's reaction said it all as she became the first true blindside of the third season. (Survivor: Myanmar)

3. Miranda - After becoming suspicious of Jasmine and Rachael's loyalties, Miranda convinces Sebastian to join her in aligning with the outcasted Bianca in order to take them out. However once Jasmine caught word of their betrayal she planted her own idol in Miranda's bag and used that as leverage to convince Bianca to flip. (Survivor: Myanmar)

2. Natalie - After being the head of any of her alliances the entire game, Natalie finally slipped up when she felt forced to play the hidden immunity idol she never told anyone about having. After this people began to grow wary of whether she could be trusted which was enough for the minority alliance to use and convince Justin to flip alliances, leading to her shocking departure. (Survivor: Maldives)

1. Pasha - After being voted out, Dorothy played her Veto Amulet that she had found due to the Pandora's Box twist. This special power allowed her to vote for any of the three people who casted votes against her. These were special circumstances however as Dev won immunity and Jillian had played her idol. This meant the only vulnerable castaway was Pasha, who was then instantly eliminated after playing one of the best strategic games of that season. (Survivor: Maldives)
