Ryan Ulrich opened up about his Survivor Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers experiences in a Reddit AMA, answering questions about the game at large.
As soon as Ryan Ulrich was introduced as part of theSurvivor Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlerspreview package immediately followingGame Changers,it was clear we had an eccentric storyteller on our hands. He brought some of that inquisitive, talkative mindto the community subreddit last night, answering questions fans had about the season.
One of the biggest questions asked of Ryan was his thoughts on whether or not the game was rigged for him to win in the end (on account of all those idols and the Final Four fire-making twist).Not only was it a passionate, but reasoned, defense of Ben Driebergen’s win, but it saw the third-place finisher eloquently break down everything Ben did to earn his win over himself.
His lengthy answered solved some inconsistencies shared by those who believe it was rigged for Ben, including the idols being hidden in high-publicity spots that all players had access to. Even the one consolation in the fire-making twist (of which he doesn’t like), he argues, did not invalidate the heavy lifting Ben did when it came to acting blindsided when he was a mastermind.It was a great answer everyone should read.

To me, though, the strongest answer came in the form ofhis reaction to online hate coming his way. Players get a lot of hate for not playing the most optimal way for their path to victory, and while Ryan’s approach to theSurvivoronline community is good for him, negativity affects others differently.
