Drew Daniel
Season 5- 1st Place
Drew is a very underestimated player of this game. Although he wasn't the most exciting person to ever play, he had some good strategy. It's difficult not to like him, for the simple fact that he's friendly and nice to you. And in season 5 that along with a little plotting and planning is what got him to the end. He was okay backstabbing his alliance of Jase because he knew that if he stuck with him he'd be a target. When Drew won the final HoH instead of being loyal to his summer long showmance Diane, he made the smart move and brought the easier person to beat to the final 2.
Note: This list is based purely off of gameplay, NOT likeability. Some of the people on this list I disliked in their season, but there's no denying they played a good game.
Hint for #11: A newbie in a season of veterans, went one step further than Shelly
