Survivor Winners at War episode 2 power rankings: Heroes in hostility

9. Danni Boatwright

Right in the middle of the rankings, Danni had a measured first step on Sele. She rightfully pointed out the relationship dynamic between Boston Rob and Amber, but Ben dropped the ball in keeping that information secret. She stood her ground, spoke the truth, and explained her reasoning while still being capable of betraying Rob at a later date and not becoming a target herself.

She got a little bit of heat, but she cooled off. She’s not beating the radar this time around, but she’s actively dodging the spotlight with expert skill.

8. Tony Vlachos

Putting himself under probation was the smartest thing Tony could do at the beginning of Survivor: Winners at War. He did everything he could to play calm, cool and collected throughout the first three days, and it worked well to his benefit. He’s even in a middle-ground trio on the Dakal tribe and isn’t even the first or second target right now.

7. Tyson Apostol

Realistically, based on edgic, I’d place a lot more faith in Tyson than a seven spot. However, for the Survivor: Winners at War episode 2 power rankings, I have to take into consideration the fact that his name was thrown out early as a potential target due to him being part of an externally-named “poker alliance.”

His ability to fold on that potential grouping early and going all-in with Wendell and Nick proves that he knows when to hold them, knows when to fold them, knows when to walk away, and when to run.
