this season started with 20 of the best players to ever play in my series coming back for another shot at glory. the season celebrated 2 types of playing styles and put them to the test. BRAINS VS. BRAWN! there were 6 players comning back hoping to make history by winning twice. some barely made it in this season. the season started with the brains surprising the brawn by winning a challenge. this resulted in ireks getting voted out cuz he was on vacation. the next challenge was 1 of the best ever. in 1 of the all-time great tribal immunity battles, the brawn barely pulled it out in a posting contest. even tho he helped them in the challenge, eli was target #1 cuz the other brains did not want to deal with another russell hantz. eli was the 2nd voted out. the brains and brawn continued to flip flop wen it came to challenges. the brawn decided to vote out michael for being an outsider to the main alliance. then ben and sweet targeted j due to past relationships in idol island. next was a double tribal council. ev got voted out for being innactive. aiw was the 1st blindside of the game due to the fact that the other brawn were afraid of his connections with some of the brains (mainly blue). the brawn then lost a challenge that was dominated by blue for the brains. they sacrificed stan for being the least active. after that the brains went on a losing streak. it started to become a battle between blue and ben for control of the brains. 1st froodsbag was voted out. then both targeted each other. due to sweet messing up the vote however, ben was voted out and blue took over the tribe. wen they lost again, sweet was voted out with an idol in her pocket. there was a twist in this game however. OCCULTUS ISLAND! eli settled in well and took complete advantage of this twist and controlled the island. things became difficult tho wen sweet got there. sweet was able to win the last 2 challenges to spare herself. due to her being afraid of bens innactiveness, she decided to bring eli with her back into the game. the merge proceeded after that. it started with a double tribal council. the brawn got some of the brains to turn on the occ island returnees while also sealing the brains' fate. the 2 occ island returnees immediately got voted out and just missed the jury. the brains tried 1 last desperation move. due to rtb losing his tribal vote and joeker getting 2 votes in the auction, antega and epstar tied in the voting. antega defeated epstar in order to survive. after that tho, it became a pagonging of the brains. antega was the 1st victim of it. followed by an emotional and dramaful exit from a legendary player in blue, which was the 1st time he was ever voted out. glinda then got wat was long waited for her which was a jury spot. in the final 6, joeker was able to avoid getting pagonged for at least 1 day wen the others wanted to flush zach's idol. this worked and joeker was spared. in the final 5, it became the brawn vs. joeker. joeker had to win to survive. unfortunately for him, he couldnt make the finals of that challenge and then he ended up getting voted out. in the final rtb made a shocking announcement that he wanted to step down in order to let his fellow brawns be the final 3. wen this happened, some jury members attacked the finalists for having an easy road to the end. others said nobody did anything to seperate themselves. in the end, dbws was able to become the 1st 2-time winner in the history of my series AND the 1st winner ever to win in a unanimous vote. i have to say this may be my best season of all time.
