Survivor winners: Ranking all 45 Sole Survivors by season

Best Survivor Winners No. 33: Danni Boatwright (Survivor Guatemala)

As much as Stephenie blew up her image as a hard-nosed heroine that she earned in Survivor Palau, Danni Boatwright earned her win on her navigation to the final tribal council.

Receiving just one meaningless vote from Lydia as she voted her out four to one and receiving all but one final tribal council vote (excluding the person who she voted out as the final juror), Danni coasted her way with a calculated under-the-radar game.

Despite being down in the numbers heading into the merge, she sought out to take out others the majority alliance needed to grab.

She also worked well with Rafe to secure a Final Two position with him, relying on him to keep her in the game late into the season.

However, with Danni getting great reads on other players, she knew that she would be able to dominate and win if she reneged on her final two deal.

Danni played a straight-up game with most players in Survivor Guatemala, which contrasted well against the more duplicitous game that Stephanie played on the way to the final tribal council.
