1. Ozzy Lusth
To be completely honest, yours truly is of two minds on Ozzy. On the one hand, he’s played four times and has never won (like Cirie, who also played for her fourth time onGame Changers), meaning that he’s part of a select group of players, the ones that we still talk about to this day. Furthermore, he holds the title of “most days inSurvivor” because he came back for those third and fourth tries inSouth PacificandGame Changers. That’s impressive, and I can’t really deny it as a fan of the game.
But I’ve also argued that players like Ozzy shouldn’t come back for afifth time, and I’d also like to argue that Ozzy has never been able to quite match the glory of hisCook Islandsdays where he lost exactlyone individual immunity challengeandcame extremely close to winning the whole game. Sure, he pulled off some impressive feats in bothSouth PacificandGame Changers, but he still didn’t win.
There’s no argument that Ozzy’s still one of the best physical players to ever grace the game. It’s actually a little ridiculous! But that still doesn’t mean that he might have been better if he’d left his first two games as his only games.
