Survivor 50 Episode 2 Edgic Charts & Contenders
Just want to say I really loved this episode.
Here are my charts and contenders after episode 2:
| Christian - The ultimate question right now is whether a winner can sh*t themselves and still win. The answer is TBD but I think if a winner is going to sh*t their pants, they had better do it like Christian; with a bit of humor. It was certainly memorable. Christian had multiple great moments this episode. Rocking Joe in the hammock. Falling on his way out of Tribal Council to cause a distraction for Devens to plant the fake idol. It was just so good. We continued to get a lot from him strategically, especially in breaking down the rest of Cila’s dynamics with Joe, and his decision making regarding the Boomerang Idol. He remains the frontrunner. |
|---|
| Devens - Mixed episode for Devens, but it’s not enough for me to adjust his ranking for now. There’s a lot of movement below the top contenders, but for the most part the players at the top maintained their positions, including Devens. He continues to be heavily featured getting character moments like coming up with a creative fake idol play, and strategic content, both good and bad. Devens gets into an argument with Joe. His gameplay is pretty sloppy through this sequence, but he is able to acknowledge that he made a mistake. Devens may get to a point where he’s flying too close to the sun and gets burnt, but for now he keeps his spot. |
| Genevieve - Does Genevieve get points for being right about Aubry having a Boomerang Idol but on the wrong day? I mean, she basically predicted the future so maybe she deserves extra points! I’m not really sure, but she’s obviously smart. They’re a little heavier on her personal and emotional content this episode rather than strategic, but I still think that she is in a great position. Certainly one of the most well-rounded female edits on the season so far. |
| Ozzy - Ozzy seemingly switches places with Cirie this episode, landing in the hot seat and now it’s up to Cirie to save him. He’s a little more MOR this episode, but he had a huge premiere, so a bit of a cooldown while still being an important character makes a lot of sense. We see him struggling with his social game, but expressing appreciation for the skills of his #1 ally that plays such a different game than he does. Ozzy was very “my way or the highway,” Oscar is looking for a complementary ally. This new layer to his game pays off because Cirie successfully keeps the target off of him. His rivalry with Coach continues to be highlighted, so hopefully that means that we will see both of them in this game long enough for them to live on the same beach. |
| Colby - Not too much Colby this episode, but his one confessional does show an evolution in how he’s playing the game. Obviously he still cares about loyalty and work ethic, that is quite evident based on his other dealings around camp. However, endorsing the decision to go through Aubry’s bag with the rest of his alliance seems to be a layer of flexibility that he’s adding to his game. Good thematically for Colby. |
