Best Blindside from Survivor: Gabon – Ace

I haven’t included many pre-merge boots on here, but Ace really was the best blindside on Survivor: Gabon. He was a strong guy who had been in control of the game basically from the beginning. His alliance with Sugar had helped him, so it was only fitting that she was a part of the group that voted him out.

Ace was booted right before the merge and Sugar did not protect him with her idol. Her infamous “Ace-h***” ballot makes this blindside even more iconic.

Best Blindside from Survivor: Tocantins – Brendan

Brendan seemingly had it made in Survivor: Tocantins. He was in the majority alliance at the merge, he had the Hidden Immunity Idol, and also had a secret alliance that he made on Exile Island that would consist of him, Timbira tribe mate Sierra, and Jalapao members Taj and Stephen.

It was all of those reasons why Brendan had to be cut early and were it not for a medical evacuation right at the merge, Brendan doesn’t make the jury in Tocantins. His fellow Timbira teammates, minus Sierra, banded with the Jalapao three to take him out and he left the game with an idol in his pocket.
