Both tribes will go to tribal council every round during the pre-merge, but if your tribe wins immunity, nobody on your tribe will go home.
In fact, the person with the most votes won't just be safe for that round. That person will be safe for every round until the merge.
So, if you vote someone out, you don't just risk that they won't go home. You risk them staying for a while -- and it might be long enough to send you out the door next.
1️⃣6️⃣ Jessie/DrG2 - Taino - Day 1 (6-1-1)
As the most inactive player from the Taino tribe, Jessie was voted out with 6 votes, including a self-vote. Bitt received the Safety Net for Lucayan.
1️⃣5️⃣ Rowan/rowjone - Taino - Day 2 (MEDICALLY EVACUATED)
After not voting in the first two tribal councils, Rowan was medically evacuated. Had he voted, Rowan would have received the Safety Net.
1️⃣4️⃣ Bitt/Bitt_Dabbed - Lucayan - Day 2 (MEDICALLY EVACUATED)
Despite receiving the Safety Net in the first tribal council, Bitt was medically evacuated after not voting in the first two tribal councils.
1️⃣3️⃣ Matthew/mbarnish1 - Lucayan - Day 2 (3-2-1-1-1)
The Lucayan tribe was all over the place for this vote. The only players to receive multiple votes were Kevin and Matthew, but Matthew's self-vote put him over the edge and he was voted out.
1️⃣2️⃣ Cindy/cinzi_lov - Taino - Day 3 (5-1)
As the least active member of the tribe, Cindy was voted out of Taino. Kevin received the Safety Net for Lucayan.
1️⃣1️⃣ Victoria/VictoriaW - Lucayan - Day 4 (2-2-1-1/2-2/ROCKS)
In a 2-2-1-1 vote proving the Lucayan tribe never talked strategy, Jorge and Robby were tied with two votes each. In the re-vote, Victoria surprisingly switched her vote from Robby to Jorge, which forced the rock draw that would eventually send her home.
1️⃣0️⃣ Tyler/VanHow10 - Taino/Arawak - Day 5 (4-3-2-1)
After the tribes merged with 5 members each, the Lucayan tribe proved their incompetence once again by being unable to decide on one player to vote for. This frustrated Jorge, who flipped to the Taino alliance with Liv, Megan and Romeo. The four of them voted for Tyler and he became the first member of the jury.
0️⃣9️⃣ Kevin/Kevin0621 - Lucayan/Arawak - Day 6 (4-1-1-1-0(2))
With Jorge not allowed to vote after being exiled at the auction, Liv, Megan and Romeo looked to target Kevin and Robby. Robby played an idol, negating two votes against him, but it was Kevin who received a majority of the votes and became the second member of the jury.
0️⃣8️⃣ Shawn/Suitman13 - Taino/Arawak - Day 6 (MEDICALLY EVACUATED)
0️⃣7️⃣ JJ/moviedude - Lucayan/Arawak - Day 6 (MEDICALLY EVACUATED)
JJ and Shawn failed to show up to the Fast Forward and give me a bootlist, so they were both medevac'd.
0️⃣6️⃣ Robby/Robbyjak - Lucayan/Arawak - Day 6 (5-2-1)
With no idol to save him, the rest of the tribe turned on Robby as he was voted out.
0️⃣5️⃣ Jorge/Sunfire - Lucayan/Arawak - Day 7 (3-2)
At the Final 5, the alliance of Liv, Megan and Romeo stayed strong as they voted out Jorge.
0️⃣4️⃣ Jack/RealJacksonWalsh - Lucayan/Arawak - Day 7 (3-1)
After losing immunity, Jack was voted out by the Final 3 alliance.
0️⃣3️⃣ Megan/BBMeganNicole - Taino/Arawak - Day 7 (1-0)
Romeo won final immunity and opted to take Liv to the end, making Megan the final member of the jury.
--- Final 2 ---
0️⃣2️⃣ Romeo/BritishRomeo17 - Taino/Arawak (2 votes to win)
0️⃣1️⃣ Liv/ItsLiv - Taino/Arawak (4 votes to win)
While Kevin and Tyler felt hurt by Liv's gameplay, the rest of the jury felt Romeo was dragged to the end by Liv and Megan and ultimately crowned Liv as the winner.
This season is without a doubt the worst Cutthroat season ever.
13 self-votes, 7 players self-voting at least once, 4 medevacs.
The Safety Net twist definitely contributed to the high amount of medevacs because there were more opportunities to self-vote. However, if the cast was simply active, I think the twist could have worked. Perhaps it would work best in an All-Star season. However, it has yet to make another appearance since its original season.
Very little strategy. The only real alliance of the game (Liv, Megan, Romeo) dominated because they were the only strategic force in the game. Players like Jack, Jorge and Robby were also strategic but had nobody really to play with.
Liv played well, but she played against a mostly inactive cast. It was also revealed in July 2020 that she was a multi of her ally Megan, further tainting and invalidating her win.
Rating: 3/10
Ranking: 20/20
Returnees: Liv (Overstepping Champions - Coach, Valley of Victors), Romeo (G2: Mindanao), Megan (Henan, Valley of Victors), Jack (Skeleton Coast), Kevin (G2: Kamome Island), Victoria (Flops vs. Tops)
At the beginning of the game, the players were divided into two tribes of eight. However, the next day, they found out those were not actually the tribes. They would be divided into three tribes of five based on their performance in the first challenge. The last place player would not join a tribe and would be eliminated.
Tribes that won immunity would choose between which of the two losing tribes would lose a member. The decision would be made before the vote read but the decision wouldn't be revealed until after the votes were read.
1️⃣6️⃣ Alisson/IndieSoul - Tuctu - Day 1 (Last in Challenge)
After finishing last place in the challenge, Alisson did not join one of the three tribes and was eliminated.
--- Swap ---
1️⃣5️⃣ Sanda/Imopink1 - Arteza/Kunkush - Day 2 (5-0)
As the most inactive player of the tribe, Sanda was voted out of Kunkush in a unanimous vote.
1️⃣4️⃣ Caleb/Caleb9211 - Arteza/Kunkush - Day 3 (3-1)
An alliance formed between Chris and DJ, and they brought Noah into the fold to vote Caleb out.
1️⃣3️⃣ Yoko/Yoko_Homo - Tuctu/Arteza - Day 4 (4-1)
As the most inactive member of her tribe, Yoko was the first person to be voted out of Arteza.
1️⃣1️⃣ Qaz/qazwsxwdc - Arteza/Tuctu/Huascarán - Day 6 (6-5)
With three tribes coming together for the merge, things began very hectic for the post-merge game. After not voting anyone out in the pre-merge, the Tuctu tribe were eager to vote out one of their own. The vote quickly came between Logan and Qaz, adversaries from Tuctu. While Qaz had tribemates Jeff & TJ and Kunkush duo Chris & DJ, all of Arteza sided with Logan and Robby to vote out Qaz.
1️⃣0️⃣ DJ/coolexchangestudent - Arteza/Kunkush/Huascarán - Day 7 (4-3-2-1)
After solidfying sides with a lot of strategy talk in the previous vote, the tribe went in their separate directions for the next vote. Logan and Robby set their sights on Chris, but the Arteza OG's had different ideas, casting their votes for DJ. This miscommunication could have gone terribly wrong if Jeff's idol was played correctly. However, he played it incorrectly for himself. The vote would have tied if the minority alliance all put their votes on Robby, but one vote from TJ went awry and in K.C.'s direction, ending DJ's game.
0️⃣9️⃣ Tyler/VanHow10 - Arteza/Arteza/Huascarán - Day 8 (5-4)
Looking to make a big move, Tyler attempted to target Logan, thinking he had the numbers to do so. When Logan caught wind of the plan, it forced the target onto Tyler. His OG Arteza alliance did not like him playing both sides and Tyler paid the price by becoming the third member of the jury.
0️⃣8️⃣ Chris/chris2pei - Arteza/Kunkush/Huascarán - Day 8 (5-2-1)
The majority alliance of Dakota, K.C., Latisha, Logan and Robby stayed strong by voting Chris out.
0️⃣7️⃣ TJ/TJ2807 - Tuctu/Tuctu/Huascarán - Day 9 (3-0(4))
After winning immunity, Robby felt comfortable enough to break out of the bottom of his 5-2 majority. He flipped with Latisha to put four votes on Dakota. However, Dakota pulled out an idol, negating the four votes against him and sending TJ packing.
0️⃣6️⃣ K.C./Kaseyhope101 - Tuctu/Arteza/Huascarán - Day 10 (ROCKS)
With Jeff, the final member from the minority alliance, safe with the immunity necklace. The majority alliance needed to turn on each other. With Logan & Robby set on voting Dakota out and with Latisha & K.C. set on voting Logan out, Dakota looked to make a move with Jeff to take out Robby and exact revenge for voting him out. Dakota used his extra vote to get three votes on Robby, but he played an idol to save himself. In the revote, Jeff had the power to tie the vote or to send Logan home. However, he tied the vote, sending K.C. and Latisha to draw rocks. K.C. drew the bad rock and was eliminated.
0️⃣5️⃣ Robby/Robbyjak - Tuctu/Tuctu/Huascarán - Day 10 (3-1-1)
As the biggest immunity threat left in the game, Robby was voted out by Dakota, Jeff and Logan after he lost the immunity challenge.
0️⃣4️⃣ Latisha/Latisha0987 - Arteza/Arteza/Huascarán - Day 10 (3-1)
With Jeff immune, Dakota and Logan opted to vote out Latisha with Jeff.
0️⃣3️⃣ Dakota/Java9044 - Tuctu/Arteza/Huascarán - Day 11 (1-0)
After a surprise announcement that it would be a Final 2 rather than a Final 3, Jeff won the Final Immunity Challenge and opted to bring Logan with him to the Final 3, eliminating Dakota and making him the final juror.
--- Final 2 ---
0️⃣2️⃣ Logan/Haykee - Tuctu/Tuctu/Huascarán (2 votes to win)
0️⃣1️⃣ Jeff/coltsfan876 - Tuctu/Tuctu/Huascarán (6 votes to win)
Even though Jeff spent majority of the game in the minority, he was applauded for his tenacity and his ability to escape the vote. The jury felt as if Logan was carried to the end by his allies and did not deserve to win over Jeff.
There were only two real rounds where strategy talk was really persistent with the Final 11 and Final 9 votes.
The Final 10 vote was really frustrating because that offered an opportunity for the minority to change the game and it was blown by lack of communication.
Jeff is an okay winner. He needed immunity all three times he won or else he would have gone home. The only times he voted in the majority were the final three votes of the game, one of which he was the sole vote. He wasn't a strategic winner, but the game is Outwit, Outplay, Outlast, and outlast he did.
Past players could apply with a new player to form a pair. These nine pairs were divided into three tribes of six, with three pairs on each tribe.
It was revealed at the premiere that the swapped tribes would feature returning players on one tribe and new players on the other.
1️⃣8️⃣ Kelly/Kelly0412 - Eori - Day 1 (4-2)
With all three tribes forced to vote someone out before the first challenge, Kelly & Eoin had the biggest target on their backs. Brittany & Jordon and Kyle & Lilly joined forces to vote Kelly out of the game.
1️⃣7️⃣ João/joaovictor - Tavarua - Day 2 (4-2)
After the first tribal council, Brady and Julian accepted an offer to mutiny to Liku Liku and Tavarua respectively after it was revealed they would have been voted out had their tribe lost the immunity challenge. As the new kid on the block, Julian wanted to ensure his name would not come out at his new tribe's first tribal council. He did so by targeting João, the least well-known player on the tribe.
1️⃣6️⃣ Tris/TMAN54445 - Tavarua - Day 3 (3-2)
After the João vote, Nick was on the outs of his tribe, but it turned into a swing vote position when Corey and Tris approached him to vote out Will at the next tribal council. Eventually, he sided with Julian and Will to vote Tris out of the game.
1️⃣5️⃣ Brady/CoachWade - Tavarua/Liku Liku - Day 3 (3-3/4-0)
With Liku Liku going to its first tribal council, the alliance of James & Vlad and Ashton & Chili worked to split the vote on its other two members, Brady and Setsu. On the revote, the majority alliance came together to unanimously vote out last season's winner in Brady.
1️⃣4️⃣ Ashton/MoooHades - Liku Liku/Tavarua - Day 4 (3-2-2)
After the newbies lost the first post-swap challenge, Ashton & Vlad, the tighest pair on the tribe, targeted Lilly to go home. However, Setsu was able to get that message across the tribe. To combat a potential idol play, the rest of the tribe split the votes 3-2 on the dynamic duo. Three of those votes landed on Ashton and he was the first post-swap casualty.
1️⃣3️⃣ James/J2999 - Liku Liku/Eori - Day 5 (1-1-1-3(0)-1(0)/3-1)
This was one of the most intricate tribal councils I have ever witnessed. There were so many layers, so many lies, so many betrayals, and it ended in James's premature departure. At this point in the game, James was universally liked, which also in turn means he was disliked by other gamers noticing his strategy. Had James made it to the merge, he would have been the one to beat, which is why the Eori tribe taking the shot at him when they did was so smart. Eoin playing both sides and Brittany's shocking betrayal created a new majority that decided to split the votes on four different people. Two idols were played and saved the top two vote getters, Brittany and Chili. It ended in James, who gave Brittany the idol she used to save herself, going home in a revote.
1️⃣2️⃣ Setsu/manalord - Liku Liku/Tavarua - Day 6 (5-2)
The chaos from the James vote permeated into the Tavarua tribe with several bloodlines affected and the merge fast approaching. So despite Vlad being in the minority the previous vote, the target shifted to pairs left in the game. Jordon and Setsu became targets for the vote, but her association with Julian, a dangerous player to come, enticed voters to send Setsu home before the merge.
1️⃣1️⃣ Corey/coreyants - Tavarua/Tavarua/Yadra - Day 7 (7-2-2)
With the tribes merged, the two remaining duos, Brittany & Jordon and Kyle & Lilly, had the biggest targets. However, the tribe was equally threatened by Corey, who was rumored to possibly holding the idol for Tavarua. Despite some votes going Jordon and Eoin's directions, it was Corey who received the majority of the votes and became the first member of the jury.
1️⃣0️⃣ Kyle/RedsKanto - Eori/Eori/Yadra - Day 8 (5-4-1)
With Corey gone, the focus soon returned to taking a shot at one of the two pairs. However, with Will inching closer their side, they held numbers for half the tribe. Luckily for the veteran singles alliance of Chili, Eoin, Julian and Nick, they held a Vote Steal, which they used to steal Will's vote and push the majority of votes on Kyle, sending him to the jury.
0️⃣9️⃣ Nick/BluJay112 - Tavarua/Eori/Yadra - Day 9 (4-0(5))
With the alliance of Chili, Eoin, Julian, Nick and Vlad riding the majority, they looked to take the game to the end. However, the only thing stopping them was Lilly's idol. Despite voting for a unsuspecting idol recipient in Will, Lilly played her idol for Will, negating all five of his votes and sending Nick home with four votes.
0️⃣8️⃣ Lilly/ZLilly831 - Eori/Tavarua/Yadra - Day 9 (4-4/3-3/ROCKS)
In the Fast Forward, the two alliances of four battled it out in an intense rock draw. With Chili safe from immunity and Vlad and Will receiving votes, five players willing drew for rocks at the Final 8. Luckily for the veterans alliance, Lilly pulled the unlucky rock and was voted out one tribal after playing an idol for someone else.
0️⃣7️⃣ Brittany/LaFierceBrittany2 - Eori/Eori/Yadra - Day 10 (4-3)
With Chili, Eoin, Julian and Vlad in control of the votes, they took out Brittany, the veteran half of the final pair left in the game.
0️⃣6️⃣ Will/hellomynameis347 - Tavarua/Tavarua/Yadra - Day 11 (4-2)
With Chili immune, the veteran alliance had to choose between Jordon and Will. Unfortunately for Will, he was voted out 4-2.
0️⃣5️⃣ Eoin/Eoin - Eori/Eori/Yadra - Day 12 (3-2)
At the finale, Chili and Eoin saw each other as their biggest threat left in the game. And with Chili not safe after losing the immunity challenge, Eoin looked to take the shot with the rookies Vlad and Jordon. Jordon was on board, but Vlad stayed loyal to Chili and Julian to vote Eoin out.
0️⃣4️⃣ Julian/TheSexiestDude990 - Liku Liku/Tavarua/Eori/Yadra - Day 12 (2-2/Lost FMC)
After Chili won his fourth immunity challenge, Jordon appeared to be the next to go. However, Vlad was looking to take out a big jury threat in Julian right before the Final 3, so he sided with Jordon to tie the vote and force a fire-making challenge. To people's surprise, Jordon prevailed and Julian became the final member of the jury.
--- Final Three ---
0️⃣3️⃣ Vlad/Vlad21 - Liku Liku/Tavarua/Yadra (0 votes to win)
0️⃣2️⃣ Jordon/Jordonk - Eori/Tavarua/Yadra (3 votes to win)
0️⃣1️⃣ Chili/Lalisa - Liku Liku/Eori/Yadra (5 votes to win)
The jury determined Vlad to be the goat and the vote to come down to Chili and Jordon, two of the more polarizing figures in the game. Jordon received most of his votes from those simply wishing not to reward Chili, and Chili's five votes were enough to give him the well-deserved win.
I don't think I've had more fun hosting a single season before. This season was competitive, exciting, entertaining, complex and everything you could ask for in a season.
One of the best casts ever. I think the Blood vs. Water facet of the game definitely contributed to it. Those dynamics added a different layer to the game that went well.
I still remember the chaos behind the James vote over a year and a half later. It's without a doubt one of the craziest Cutthroat votes in nearly two years of the franchise.
The Fast Forward Night also produced some of the best content Cutthroat has seen, with the shocking idol play for Will and the rock draw to send Lilly home.
The Chili-Eoin standstill at the Final 5 was also thrilling to watch. It was clear one of them was going to win the game and it would've been whichever player crossed the other first. Chili got to Eoin first and it was a big part as to why he won the game.
Chili's Hall of Fame Cutthroat career has its shining moment here in Melanesia. He won with one of the most difficult casts and seasons in Cutthroat history and has been commended ever since.

This season, everyone is going to have a partner and before tomorrow night's first challenge, each player must decide whether or not they would like to BEFRIEND their partner or BACKSTAB their partner.
If you BEFRIEND your partner and you are able to both make it to the Top 10, each player will receive a HALF-IDOL.
However, if you choose to BACKSTAB your partner and are successful in eliminating them by the Top 10, that player will receive a FULL IDOL.
1️⃣6️⃣ Max/mac321 - Navadra - Day 1 (6-1-1)
After losing Pass the Torch, Navadra went to tribal council looking to vote out one of their inactive members. Benjamin, who chose to Backstab his partner Max, pushed for his partner to go in order to receive an idol. He was successful as Max went in a 6-1-1 vote.
1️⃣5️⃣ Chris/Chris1080 - Navadra - Day 2 (4-2-1)
After the first tribal council, Navadra’s core alliance formed between the two returnees BB and Brady and the two most-experienced group gamers on the tribe, Benjamin and Eoin. When they lost again, the tribe looked to target one of their bigger threats in Chris. Their votes were enough to make him the second person voted out.

1️⃣4️⃣ Zach/ziggyzaggy4 - Qalito/Navadra - Day 3 (4-2)
In a two-for-one twist, both tribes would swap and go to tribal council. Returnee pair Jive and Josh targeted tight pair Billy and Zach, leaving former Navadra members Benjamin and Jordan as the swing votes. They eventually sided with the returnees and voted out Zach.
1️⃣3️⃣ November/cherishthegirl101 - Navadra/Qalito - Day 3 (Medically Evacuated)
After self-voting in her second consecutive tribal council, November was medically evacuated from the game.
1️⃣2️⃣ Jordan/Jcorbs - Navadra/Navadra - Day 4 (4-1)
Navadra would lose another challenge, and the decision came between Billy, who lost his partner Zach at the previous tribal council, or Jordan, the most inactive player on the tribe. Benjamin, Jive and Josh favored activity and sent Jordan home.
The tribes merged with 11 players left, giving them one final opportunity to backstab their partner to receive a full idol at the Final 10, which meant any BEFRIEND pairs would receive a half-idol each and any successful BACKSTAB pairs would receive a full idol. JIVE and JOSH, both looking to play with each other, had a change of heart with the deadline approaching. Both players targeted each other and the tribe was forced to decide which returnee to keep. The tribe went with JOSH and sent JIVE to the jury.
1️⃣0️⃣ Birks/Birks4444 - Qalito/Qalito/Monuriki - Day 6 (1-0(4))
The tribe was split into One Day Tribes at the Final 10. Benjamin, Billy, Birks and Josh all agreed to vote out Rhett. However, Rhett had an ace up his sleeve after Jacob willed him his half-idol they received after making it to the Final 10. Rhett played the full idol, negating all four of his votes and sending Birks to Ponderosa.
0️⃣9️⃣ BB/purplebb4 - Navadra/Qalito/Monuriki - Day 6 (3-2)
BB, Brady and Eoin held a 3-2 majority on the Orange Tribe, but Jacob held a Vote Steal that allowed him to steal BB’s vote and send him to Ponderosa.
0️⃣8️⃣ Rhett/Valero7 - Qalito/Qalito/Monuriki - Day 7 (5-3)
After the One Day Tribes, the Final 8 reunited as Monuriki. After Jacob’s used the Vote Steal at the previous tribal council, he became a target for the following vote. However, he won immunity, forcing the tribe to pick a new target. Jacob tried to push votes on Eoin, but the tribe looked to target Rhett instead. He was sent home in a 5-3 vote.
0️⃣7️⃣ Dominique/D882 - Qalito/Qalito/Monuriki - Day 8 (QUIT)
0️⃣6️⃣ Josh/sergeant - Qalito/Navadra/Monuriki - Day 8 (1-0(3)-0(2))
After Jacob won his third consecutive immunity challenge, Dominique became the biggest target. However, she quit the game, meaning it was time for the core alliance to turn on each other. Benjamin and Eoin, once allies, recruited other tribe members to turn on each other. However, both played idols successfully, negating all but 1 vote. The vote read Josh’s name and he was voted out.
0️⃣5️⃣ Benjamin/BENLINUS - Navadra/Navadra/Monuriki - Day 9 (4-1)
After Jacob won his fourth straight immunity, the tribe unanimously agreed to vote out the biggest threat to win the game in Benjamin.
0️⃣4️⃣ Billy/Rocketokid13 - Qalito/Navadra/Monuriki - Day 9 (2-2/Lost FMC)
With Jacob winning a record fifth straight immunity, Brady and Billy received two votes each and completed in the fire-making challenge. Brady won the challenge, making Billy the final member of the jury.
While members of the jury were impressed with Jacob’s ability to win challenges, they were more impressed with Brady’s social game and the ability to keep people happy despite voting them out. He received four of the six votes and won in his second Cutthroat season.
The cast was strong on paper, but left a somewhat underwhelming impression on the season at-large.
The Befriend or Backstab twist was fun to experiment with, but did not leave a lasting impression for me to consider using it again.
There were a couple exciting moments for the season but is often seen as one of the more forgettable Cutthroat seasons.
The One Day Tribes brought the two best tribals of the season but it has never been seen in Cutthroat again up until Gen 2, Season 8. The Final 6 double idol play was also a fun tribal.
If I were a juror, Jacob probably would have gotten my vote for his then-record 5 consecutive immunity wins, but Brady is far from an unworthy winner. This is another example that Survivor is, and will always be, a social game.
