Survivor edgic: Making sense of Survivor Game Changers episode 10
As we edge closer to the Survivor Game Changers final tribal council, the Survivor edgic dictates a few frontrunners making a strong case.
With ten players left at the end of Survivor Game Changers episode 10, “A Line Drawn in Concrete,” the tribe of one has become divided once again. The thing is, though, compared to the pre-merge vote outs, the gameplay is a lot more fluid now. This makes it difficult for Survivor edgic to determine a telegraphed winner, but there are certainly a few players capable of winning.
Inside Survivor has posted their estimation of the edgic for Survivor Game Changers episode 10, and with Sarah Lacina getting a whopping 11 confessionals (a season high), helping Cirie Fields in her over the top positive moment, dictating the swing of votes at a crucial moment in the game and playing both sides like a criminal (not a cop), she’s easily the most capable of winning.
Still, though, this episode has shown multiple possibilities for who can win this season. You also have to take the previous nine episodes into consideration, as Brad Culpepper still had an important role in episode 10. He chose his reward challenge team, he finally enjoyed a healthy meal, and he gave the audience a deeper understanding of his game. Plus, despite being on the “opposing” alliance, he really hasn’t had that negative an edit. He could get really far.

If you want more players you can see making it deep, look no further than Cirie Fields. She received a huge over the top positive moment that impacted all but two players in a major way. In the previous post-merge episodes, she was making her patented psychological moves such as voting for Sierra, mentoring Michaela while also voting for her and further solidifying her relationships in the power alliance. However, she’d likely need to win an individual immunity late to even make it to a final tribal council.

In terms of those with a slight chance of making it to the end of Survivor Game Changers, Tai Trang and Troyzan Robertson both have an outside route according to the edgic. Troyzan will need to keep up his individual immunity challenge run now and have an argument as a strong player. Tai will need to continue to play his idols at opportune moments, as well as articulate his argument with pride at the final tribal council. Both players, though, remained under the radar this episode.
Episode 10 marked a dire shift between the haves and the have-nots, with a record four negative edits providing an interesting argument for edgic. Of all these players, it’s likely just Sierra Dawn Thomas who has a shot to win Survivor Game Changers, but being so confident in controlling the game only to see it crumble with Sarah’s flip shows she needs to make a big move, and fast.
Zeke Smith and Debbie Wanner both showed an unnecessary cockiness going into this episode, and Debbie paid the price at tribal council. Zeke was shown trying to make a big move with the guys in the preview for the next episode, so he could finally find himself in the control of a voting bloc that he so desperately wants.

In terms of the edgic surrounding episode 10, we have the good (Andrea Boehlke), the bad (Michaela Bradshaw) and the no good, very bad edit (Aubry Bracco). Andrea was shown mending bridges, convincing others and generally making a splash as she continues to show a stronger post-merge edit. Meanwhile, Michaela was so steamed that she called everyone else names, missed an advantage and performed hilarious tribal council antics. Aubry, meanwhile, finally had a (secondary) storyline, but she hasn’t been portrayed as a complex personality all season.
To recap, the Survivor edgic so far has three strong winner candidates, two positive outsiders, one negative outsider and a bunch of entertaining characters. Still, though, with an untold number of advantages, idols and possible upcoming twists on the horizon, things can get pretty tricky down the stretch.
