With the swap coming and splitting up 17 players, Survivor: David vs. Goliath episode 4 power rankings show players’ odds of thriving with new friends.

17. Bi Nguyen

There’s no reason why the viewer should be going back to the David camp after they won their first tribal immunity of the season. The fact that we saw Bi complain about her injured knee, Probst ADR’d audio of asking medical to look at her knee and we saw Bi explain to the tribe that she had a sprained MCL, it’s going to be a storyline. The swap is the worst time for that to occur to Bi.

16. Alec Merlino

Based on the Survivor: David vs. Goliath episode 4 promo, it appears as though Alec’s on a new tribe with a bunch of David people and it’s still early in the game. Considering we’re still holding strong on the “NDA punish” meta, I would expect him to be voted out here or next week.

15. Natalie Cole

I think that Natalie’s edit suggests she has a long run in her, but she has shown weakness in challenges and the inability to work well with others. Her saving grace is flipping to a David majority to save herself, but I don’t know how far that goes.

14. Alison Raybould

Who is Alison’s closest ally? Where does she fit on the Goliath totem pole? Does she have a gameplan? I can’t answer these questions based on her edit, and that does not bode well ahead of a swap.
