Survivor Island of the Idols: Five winners from the tribe swap

Aaron Meredith (New Vokai)

Previous situation:

Aaron started the season on the outs after the Ronnie vote, but he slowly won the favor of his tribe back. He proved to be a strong force in the Chelsea vote and even showed the ability to control a Tribal Council with Missy’s help. That big move may have put a target on him and Missy though, making them both potentially vulnerable if old Lairo banded against them.

Current situation:

The swap saw Aaron form a tribe with four Lairo and four Vokai members. Even splits can certainly be dangerous in Survivor, but Aaron has a few advantages up his sleeve. First of all, his partner in crime; Missy, is on his tribe. That gives Aaron someone to strategize with ahead of a potentially scary tie vote.

Aaron also was quick to develop a relationship with Tommy from Vokai. It definitely feels that if the tribe is going to come to a consensus, it’s going to be through Aaron and Tommy, giving Aaron some safety from their first Tribal Council. Plus their tribe is so stacked that they might not even have to go to another Tribal Council.
