Survivor: Game Changers finale in photos: Are there some clues here?
The photos released for the Survivor: Game Changers finale don’t necessarily tell the whole story of the finale, but they do tell a story.
Although CBS released a bevy of new photos for Survivor: Game Changers‘ finale this week, many of them are just the usual camp life shots that we tend to get when the show doesn’t want to let us know too much about what’s happening. But just because that’s the intention doesn’t mean there aren’t some things to note here.

First, what a cool view of the immunity maze challenge. Based on the promo, we know that this will be for the final six to run. There have to be more than just those two tall stations, but they do seem like they are some of the big parts of this maze. Presumably, they’ll be excellent landmarks to navigate by, and being able to see the general layout will also help.

After all, the “walls” of this maze are only about waist-high. The multiple colors may very well make it a little more difficult to see where the paths lead, especially for these players, who are going on little and less in the way of sleep and food. (That probably explains why the challenge designers made it that way.)

At first glance, it may seem as though CBS has inadvertently confirmed a water challenge. There are two details that apparently disprove this theory. Point the first: Aubry has a Mana buff around her neck. Point the second: that neon pink-wearer off to the left is almost certainly Hali, and since Hali’s on the jury unless Survivor pulls out some completely bonkers twist, this probably isn’t from the actual episode.

Of the camp shots, this one may be the most interesting of them all. Cirie, Tai, and Aubry talking together to try and pull something off at the final six could make things very difficult for Brad or Sarah.

Now these three photos have me very curious indeed. There’s a starkness to them, and a huge similarity in facial expression and even background coloring that suggests these photos of Sarah, Brad, and Troyzan are related. We’re not saying they’re the final three, but we’re saying that it kind of looks that way here.

Now, granted, one might say that this photo of Aubry also suggests she goes further in the game. One of my colleagues actually suggested as much today. Yours truly would like to counter said argument by saying that Aubry has a very different, almost hopeful expression on her face, and even the background colors themselves are different.
What I’m saying is that I would suspect Aubry perhaps has a final four finish. I’m not confident enough to, say, put any sort of bet on it in tomorrow’s edition of Surviving Tribal, but I’m saying it wouldn’t come as a shock. (By the way, look for those bets tomorrow. I’m losing again, but it’s close.)
