Survivor Koah Rong: Episode 14 Power Rankings

This season went by so fast! Can you believe it! It's widely speculated that tonight someone will be blindsided. And by someone, it's likely us. Will it be a final 2 or final 3? And if it is a final 3 what are the three tribals mentioned in the preview promo? Here is the final power rankings of the season. This is how it shakes up at the START of the episode. The immunity challenge will likely destroy these placements all depending on who wins. 

#1) Cydney (4)

Cydney finally gets the top spot. It's incredibly likely that had Joe not been medivaced she would have been out at 5. But she was saved. It was a perfect situation for her. Cydney is a likely immunity winner which should get her to the final tribal. But if it doesn't, she could be a target. 

#2) Michele (3)

Michele has skated her way to the end. Her journey has been interesting. She's sat pretty for a while. She found herself on the bottom but survived. She has had an immense amount of luck on her side. But does she have a resume that will give her the ultimate prize? Michele will be in the finals. But winning will be near impossible. 

#3) Aubry (1)

Aubry lost her extra vote in Joe. And that is detrimental. Everyone knew Aubry was a target and now she is expendable without the numbers on her side. Aubry has a great resume and a brilliant story to share should she make the final tribal council. But if the other three are smart, they will know that she is the one to beat. 

#4) Tai (5)

Tai can win. Why? Because he is an overall great guy, he did what he needed to do to get here, and because he has Mark the chicken. Tai needs to pray that should he make the final tribal council that the jury isn't bitter. If the jury is bitter, he has a few votes already against him.

We're down to the final five! I mean, final six. Joe's still here. Poor Joe. Has there ever been a more invisible character this late in the game? Last week's ouster of my winner pick was hard to swallow but it sets up some potential paths of victory.

#1) Aubry (1)

The only way Aubry can miss out on the finals is if she (or Joe) get blindsided this week. If Tai were smart, which at this point is debatable, he would figure out a way to deflect attention on Aubry and play his idol to get her out. It would be a power move. But Aubry just has this control right now that sets her up for a victory.

#2) Joe (2)

Survivor truly is a game of numbers. And the second best option to hinder an Aubry win is to get out Joe. Joe is literally a plus one vote for Aubry. He is a puppy dog. If no one feels comfortable knocking out Aubry this week, Joe is the second best option. But again, it's not gonna happen. No one wants to risk a jury vote loss.

#3) Michele (4)

Michele made a move by ousting her bestie. Was it the best move for her to win? Yes. If she was in the final with Julia, Julia would have taken her votes. At this point, Michele has to do jury management. It's virtually a game between her and Aubry simply due to the people on the jury. 

#4) Cydney (3)

Cydney has been talking a big game but we haven't seen her initiate on it. Her resume shows she's assisted in some power shifts but never the ring leader. She's had ideas but never executed. This is the week for her to do one. If Cydney can figure out a way to eliminate Aubry, she could get some votes in the final Tribal Council. But she has to do something NOW.

#5) Jason (5)

Jason's position on the power rankings isn't one of inability to make it to the end. His position is here because he has no way of winning. Jason is a jury goat. He'll get some votes but he's destroyed too many people's games in the process. 

#6) Tai (7)

We've seen Tai do some wild things. We've seen Tai befriend Mark the chicken. And we're gonna see Tai either leave with the idol in his pocket and/or the extra vote not being used. Tai is a target.

Not only did we NOT see a Super Idol but we watched an Immunity Idol walk out of the game with Scot. If you didn't scream at your TV during this Tribal Council, you're not a true Survivor fan. This was a turning point episode simply because there was a power shift that lead to yet another power shift. Tai now has an advantage. Does this make him the ultimate target from both sides?

#1) Aubry (7)

At this point in time if Aubry doesn't win then this season is a shame. Like her or hate her, Aubry is PLAYING. Will she go down in history as an epic winner? Nah. But she's a strong competitor. 

#2) Joe (6)

Yes, that's right. Joe has placed in the top 3 of the Power Rankings. How? He's so invisible that he is a necessity of a vote and a huge jury goat. Joe will absolutely get a vote if he makes the final but is there anyone better to take to the end?

#3) Cydney (8)

Cydney was able to get the votes off of her for a week but with Aubry being such a player, Cydney just isn't calling the shots and isn't as strong. What can Cydney do to make it to the end? Make a big move. But I don't think that's going to happen.

#4) Michele (2)

Michele is bonded to Julia. Julia is viewed as shady. Michele is in a dangerous position because she either needs to cut ties with Julia or make a pack to the end. Michele's heart will finally be tested this week.

#5) Jason (4)

Jason thought he was being cool by giving Scot his idol. He trusted Tai so much that he thought the Super Idol plan was going to work. Will Jason take his frustration out on Tai or play the game as a solo player? I think Tai (and Mark) is on the chopping block.

#6) Julia (1)

Poor Julia. Her youth is catching up to her. Where does Julia go from here? She's not as big of a target simply because she doesn't have an advantage but she's viewed as shady and needs to go. But will she? Can she work her charm to save herself?

#7) Tai (3)

Tai saved himself from making one of the worst moves in the history of Survivor. But in turn, his days are numbered. He's the lone owner of a Hidden Immunity Idol and an advantage. His target is massive. Tai has to deflect attention on someone else and make some deals quickly.

Survivor Kaoh Rong Episode 9: Power Rankings

An extra three days of not going to Tribal can send anyone into a tizzy! While we'll never know if Neal would have actually been voted had he not been medivaced, the lack of Tribal caused chaos at camp and the middle man was voted out after a female alliance formed. And this caused the top to tumble to the bottom. Can't wait to see the aftermath and how it plays out! 

#1) Julia (4)

She is harmless! Being saved in the swapped tribe has placed her in a perfect position. While the preview may say otherwise, it would be pointless to remove Julia and even up the male/female numbers despite Joe likely to vote with the women. Julia is sweet and unassuming. 

#2) Michele (5)

Michele has been a strong narrator this entire season. And that's always a good sign. But Michele has seemingly been more of a target than Julia numerous times and she doesn't have the bond with the Brawn that Julia has. Should you have them in the finals together, that's two votes for Julia and zero for Michele. But right now, Michele is more of a mastermind and thus more of a target.

#3) Cydney (3)

We rarely see a power move at this moment in the game by a storm was a brewing and Cydney came a striking. This was a great move to prove her worth but in a game of numbers, Cydney still doesn't have a number two. If the guys take her back, she's the bottom of their trio. If she stays with the women, they are broken up as Michele and Julia and Aubry and Debbie. Cydney could certainly be a swing vote free agent, but how does that read to a jury?

#4) Aubry (9)

It is utterly fascinating how Aubry's position in this game fluctuates. One week you think she's about to go home, the next she's near the top. What Aubry needs to check is her emotions. She's proven that she is an emotional player, both in front of people and singularly to the camera. Aubry has a decent pulse on the action but needs to find a way to rise to the top. And fast. 

#5) Debbie (10)

Jason and Scot will certainly be gunning for a woman this vote and if an idol gets played, Debbie seems like a perfect target. Debbie is grating and thinks her placement is much better than it is. Debbie got lucky. I fear luck will dry out soon.

#6) Joe (9)

We are all waiting for Joe to do something. And I think we're going to keep waiting. Nothing much to say, sadly.

#7) Tai (6)

Tai is America's Sweetheart and thus we forgive his giant blunder which will come back to haunt him. First he reveals the information about a Super Idol at Tribal. He tries to recover by saying that's the rumor but no one buys it. To their knowledge, there has never been said "Super Idol" before so if these players are smart, they must know that Tai either has something in his possession or knows someone who does. Tai is in big trouble, but thankfully he has two buffers. The other worrisome moment is his vote for Jason. What exactly did that mean?

#8) Scot (2)

You could swap Scot for Jason in the bottom two but I put Scot ahead of Jason only because he does have more of a chance to gain sympathy from Tai and Julia due to previous relationship. We know from the previews that Scot and Jason are about to cause more chaos, but Jason is the brains of the operation. 

#9) Jason (1)

Turning yourself into enemy number one will not win you the game. I think Jason's chances of winning are officially over. But he can easily find himself as the goat to go far. That is if he can emotionally manipulate everyone into taking him. Jason is on the path of creating a legacy for himself in the game of Survivor. I don't think it's going to be a good one though.
