Survivor season 35 power rankings after episode 12

#5. Ashley Nolan

When it comes to impact on the game of Survivor in Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers, Ashley’s impact is the lowest. She hasn’t had a target put on someone else and sent them home in the pre-merge, she’s been a number to her alliance in the post-merge, and she gave us the dreaded “I’m finally starting to play this game” way too late to actually mean it.

She hasn’t done anything to piss anyone off, either, making her just as much a perceived jury threat as a big player willing to make big movez. Just like Carter in Survivor Philippines, who disappeared for episodes at a time before suddenly going home before the finale, Ashley is the kind of player that a Chrissy would want to target before she can win immunity all the way to Final Tribal Council.

Most importantly, the “Next Time on Survivor” preview showed Chrissy saying Ashley is a player they should eliminate. For whatever reason, everyone drops hating Ben so we can see that clip, so perhaps she may go home before she can finally make that first move of hers.
