To be honest, I would have been happy with either Johannes or Sasha winning the season. I think they were both incredible players and characters, and I really love how it came down to the tie.

Sasha wholeheartedly deserves this win. I think this season shows an important lesson of how you need to trust your gut in life. Not just for Sasha, but other players as well, such as Anastacia. Sasha played probably the smartest and sneakiest game of the season, and it worked to perfection. She was confident in her speaking skills, had a gut feeling she could out-speak Johannes, ran with it, and it worked. Players like Ana, who did not trust their gut, ended up getting trampled.

As a character, I feel like Sasha also needed this win more than Johannes, if that makes sense. Johannes’ status as a legend and as a fantastic player is secure without it, whereas Sasha needed the win to prove how great she is. Sure, you would have had the perfect, fairytale ending by giving Johannes the million. If Johannes wins, he and Skanda could make out on the stage, then they get married, live happily ever after, all that jazz. It would have been nice, but also more predictable. Johannes was my winner pick from the very beginning, all the way to the Final Tribal Council, so this ending was a shock for me, but in a good way, since I do love Sasha.

Can’t wait for Jeju, Tangle!
