My pick would be Chase Rice from Survivor Nicaragua, He is a calm cool personality and he would blend in with a cast of big egos. In his season he started off slow but became a real likable leader and driving force for his alliance for making strategic decisions. Plus if Probst made the decision not to allow NaOnka and Purple Kelly to be on the jury after their double quit, Chase would've beaten Fabio in a 4-3 vote. He is a wildcard pick but I think it's worth it, give him a second chance!
That’s interesting because I do not get ‘calm, cool leader’ from Chase whatsoever. His edit was mostly about how paranoid and frantic he was to the point he lost a lot of people’s respect.
It could be recently bias but Jake but from 45, I want him back already. He's like Owen from 43 except with enough power to try to make a move, but was screwed over by others not following through. Jake is a player who swung for the fences and tried his hardest to make something happen in a season where everyone else seemed to want to stay the course (outside of just voting him out). He is also just a very good at getting you on his side and isn't afraid to be emotional just like Owen. Which in a show that can sometimes get too mechanical is a breath of fresh air. In a season where someone like Dee doesn't have the charisma to have half the cast to want to take her to end, I would love to see how he does.
Absolutely stunned that noone picked Russell Hanz! Automatic prime target for the other players. Either he's the first boot, which would be hilarious, or he sticks around long enough to at least provide us with a healthy dose of nostalgic villainy that we just don't get to see on Survivor anymore...
I’d personally like to see Natalie Tennerelli from RI, last time she played she was an 18 year old bumbling follower, I’d love to see if she’s evolved at all now that she’s in her 20s Plus she was on the 2nd Chance ballot so she seems to have at least some interest in competing again
No Russell Hantz is wild! Love him or hate him, he’s amazing television! And.. Playing the game more than a decade later, I’d love to see if he could make the changes needed to GET a jury vote.
I guess they dismissed him automatically because the CBS production team wouldn't touch him with a 10 foot pole at this point. He's really opinionated on the direction Survivor has been going recently and while I agree with him mostly, it doesn't help his case on being cast for another season.
So many great choices, love the series-wide spread, and great video! And with so many other great picks out there who didn't make this list, this theme is very doable.
Im picking the ultimate Charlie Brown, Jake from survivor 45. He had some really great ideas and was always very crafty and innovative. He managed to stay in the game even while his name was on the chopping block for pretty much the entire second half of the game. Plus he’s hilarious and just a joy to watch.
An incredible collaboration. I’m happy to be subscribed to a good chunk of these people and those that I’m not I enjoyed listening to them too and will check them out After seeing all the selections, I would pick Neleh Dennis! She was very young when she played all the way back in Marquesas but has expressed interest in wanting to play again. If only Probst and casting acknowledged any players from that season besides Rob.
Great video collaboration! I have a few differences of opinion: out: Aubrey- lackluster 3rd outing, seems like a worse player each time, no real steam here in: Danielle captain of sports, in a Russel and Terry free season, or perhaps Cassidy who was recently on the Challenge. out: Dreamz- not a fan in: Gervase- would be very interesting on a 3rd run, to see if he can keep improving his placement; or prehaps Deshawn for a more recent redemption arc out: Twila- 61 years old, not going to happen in: Noura- we need a quirk-off with Noura and Carolyn on the same season out: Philip- 65 years old, also one of my least favorite players ever in: Mike Turner-great guy, self-aware, competitive... out: Ozzy-I think 3 times is enough for anyone not named Cirie in: Xander, probably better at challenges than Ozzy at this point, also probably kinder, hotter, younger, smarter...
Amanda, Aubry, Coach, Domenick, Dreamz, Mike White, Sabrina, and Stephen all on one tribe is wild. Carolyn, Angelina, Chrissy, Courtney, Ozzy, Phillip, Twila and Woo on one tribe is *wilder*.
with the conclusion of survivor uk, Christopher Leal is a really good shout. a game-savvy player who lost for essentially knowing the game TOO WELL, he played a modern-style game when UK haven’t had the show long enough for strategy to evolve to how it is in other countries
Would’ve loved to see most of these people play again, through i do believe Carolyn from season 30 should’ve been here. Aswell as players like Jaclyn, Neleh, Jake, Cassidy, Danielle, Stephanie, Colby, Chelsea. There are just so many runner ups that are amazing, either if thats for gameplay or entertainment purposes
This is probably a hot take but I'd like to see Gavin from EoE get another shot. I'd like to see if he tries to play harder if given a second chance, given that he lost to a guy who was barely in the game the first time.
Chase Rice from Survivor Nicaragua. Great social game and 1 vote away from winning it all. He would have won if they didn't let the 2 quitters stay on the jury. Interesting how that rule of quitters on the jury changed after that season.
This would be way more entertaining than WAW. What many of the runner ups lack in game play compared to the winners they more than make up in character
I personally would like to see Nelah Dennis from Marquesas. I feel like she was willing to play the game but her game was a bit rough around the edges. I think with her being 20 years older and more mature she could fix those rough edges, along with not coming into the game with a major target on her back, I can see her doing some serious damage in a season like this.
The only people I disagree with on this list are iHannah and Owen. I think both of them were victims of their own strategy/personality and they have received a lot of love in their post game history which will blind them from making different choices in a second chance season. Old habits die hard and when they aren’t critiqued heavily for the mistakes they made I think it will be far easier for them to fall back into the same routine. Good list thought! I would obviously be rooting for Miss Courtney Yates
I would have liked to see Gavin from EoE, and Carolyn from OW, on this list. I still think Gavin got screwed and deserved to win EoE because I love he played a subdued game. Carolyn from OW was a great character too and flipped everytime at the exact moment she needed to. I love that Hannah was included on this list though. The fact she got zero votes still pisses me off. I also dont think Ozzy should be on this list. Hes had 4 times out there. He doesnt deserve anymore.
I'm so happy David picked Twila, she's such a great character. My pick would have to be Becky from Cook Islands, I'd love to see how she would fare without Yul, since they were allies since day 1.

highkey agree
That’s interesting because I do not get ‘calm, cool leader’ from Chase whatsoever. His edit was mostly about how paranoid and frantic he was to the point he lost a lot of people’s respect.
Maybe I'm remembering the edit wrong. I do know that he had a better chance than Sash.@@soliantu815
It could be recently bias but Jake but from 45, I want him back already. He's like Owen from 43 except with enough power to try to make a move, but was screwed over by others not following through.

ANGELINA FTW ❤️. Thanks so much for having me Bandit ❤️
AYoooo Les go!
So many great choices, love the series-wide spread, and great video!
And with so many other great picks out there who didn't make this list, this theme is very doable.
This is amazing! Thank you so much for this video!
I love this type of videos. Having all the great channels who does game picks and reviews. I would say do the Final vote outs.
Im picking the ultimate Charlie Brown, Jake from survivor 45. He had some really great ideas and was always very crafty and innovative. He managed to stay in the game even while his name was on the chopping block for pretty much the entire second half of the game. Plus he’s hilarious and just a joy to watch.
I feel like you have to include Russell Hantz. Probably replace Mike, Owen, or Phillip.
An incredible collaboration. I’m happy to be subscribed to a good chunk of these people and those that I’m not I enjoyed listening to them too and will check them out
After seeing all the selections, I would pick Neleh Dennis! She was very young when she played all the way back in Marquesas but has expressed interest in wanting to play again. If only Probst and casting acknowledged any players from that season besides Rob.
Great video collaboration! I have a few differences of opinion:
out: Aubrey- lackluster 3rd outing, seems like a worse player each time, no real steam here
in: Danielle captain of sports, in a Russel and Terry free season, or perhaps Cassidy who was recently on the Challenge.
out: Dreamz- not a fan
in: Gervase- would be very interesting on a 3rd run, to see if he can keep improving his placement; or prehaps Deshawn for a more recent redemption arc
out: Twila- 61 years old, not going to happen
in: Noura- we need a quirk-off with Noura and Carolyn on the same season
out: Philip- 65 years old, also one of my least favorite players ever
in: Mike Turner-great guy, self-aware, competitive...
out: Ozzy-I think 3 times is enough for anyone not named Cirie
in: Xander, probably better at challenges than Ozzy at this point, also probably kinder, hotter, younger, smarter...
This cast is INCREDIBLE! Thx for inviting me to take part Bandit!
Thanks for having us on Bandit! Crazy to be involved in a project with so many creators that we are huge fans of! ❤
Amanda, Aubry, Coach, Domenick, Dreamz, Mike White, Sabrina, and Stephen all on one tribe is wild.
Carolyn, Angelina, Chrissy, Courtney, Ozzy, Phillip, Twila and Woo on one tribe is *wilder*.
with the conclusion of survivor uk, Christopher Leal is a really good shout. a game-savvy player who lost for essentially knowing the game TOO WELL, he played a modern-style game when UK haven’t had the show long enough for strategy to evolve to how it is in other countries
I agree the lack of game knowledge and debatably bitterness on the cast hurt Chris
Thanks for featuring me Himdit! 😂❤
In desperate need of a Brant Steele of this season immediately (thanks for having me on Bandit everybody absolutely killed it in this video)
Would’ve loved to see most of these people play again, through i do believe Carolyn from season 30 should’ve been here. Aswell as players like Jaclyn, Neleh, Jake, Cassidy, Danielle, Stephanie, Colby, Chelsea. There are just so many runner ups that are amazing, either if thats for gameplay or entertainment purposes
Thank you, nice work, very fun video. How about a fallen angel's cast. A final jury member season.
This is probably a hot take but I'd like to see Gavin from EoE get another shot. I'd like to see if he tries to play harder if given a second chance, given that he lost to a guy who was barely in the game the first time.
I wish TMR was on this video but I love every pick on here
Happy to see my choices all picked, especially since my first pick was the first pick of the episode!
Chase Rice from Survivor Nicaragua. Great social game and 1 vote away from winning it all. He would have won if they didn't let the 2 quitters stay on the jury. Interesting how that rule of quitters on the jury changed after that season.
Banger cast
Dang it OnceUponAnIsland!! do not invite that energy into the universe!! 😂😂
Edit: TNT, you too! Unless the two were in the same season 👀
Coach, when he is not in charge, is so much fun!
@@OnceUponAnIsland he is but I don’t know if his ego will fit onto the plane!! 🤣
Great video, great cast! Glad to be apart of it!
Carolyn from S30 should be here. Also Russel and Noura for the drama.
The fact Russell hantz is not on this list is a crime. The biggest goats to never win. Also Colby Donaldson for being iconic also
This would be way more entertaining than WAW. What many of the runner ups lack in game play compared to the winners they more than make up in character
I personally would like to see Nelah Dennis from Marquesas. I feel like she was willing to play the game but her game was a bit rough around the edges. I think with her being 20 years older and more mature she could fix those rough edges, along with not coming into the game with a major target on her back, I can see her doing some serious damage in a season like this.
I would love to see Cassidy from Survivor 43 on this cast but apart from that good cast!
Dominick from ghost island should have won and I definitely think he could win with an second chance!
Dom (Ghost Island), Carolyn (44), Chrissy (HvHvH) would be my picks (I wish I could include Rick from EoE)
Im a fan of yours Bandit.
Post Game Changers (bc that was the last returnee besides WaW), I wanna see:
Angelina and Mike White
Dominick
Owen and Cassidy
Carolyn
Id pick lillian morris, stephanie lagrossa and Dreamz Herd
Id personally love becky lee but i understand it would be out of left field
YESSS HANNAHHHH
I would absolutely love to hear Russell try to justify his take that Yul should've lost. I need a video essay on that topic alone.
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

I think it’s a black, wild jaguar. No reason to think it’s an escaped pet when an animal exists there that fits the criteria.
Needs more Crazy Matt
My pick is HER Aubry Bracco. 🔥
Russell Hantz has to be on this cast.
I would have liked to see Gavin from EoE, and Carolyn from OW, on this list. I still think Gavin got screwed and deserved to win EoE because I love he played a subdued game. Carolyn from OW was a great character too and flipped everytime at the exact moment she needed to. I love that Hannah was included on this list though. The fact she got zero votes still pisses me off. I also dont think Ozzy should be on this list. Hes had 4 times out there. He doesnt deserve anymore.
Its mindblowing how russel hantz wasnt pick for this. Everybody knows he is an idiot, but for a season like this we have to have Russel
Woo is the reason why Tony got to become the best player of Survivor.
The Susie Smith erasure - I am furious
Nick Wilson won DvG. Just so the boy at 6:20 is clear.
I love RussellMuscle, but no shot he said Ozzy should have beat Yul 💀
Hmmmmmmm
Ozzy W!
Runner up means second place. Why are angelina, carolyn and owen on here?
That's what I was thinking too lol
They are using the term loosely
Third place finishers on Survivor are officially listed as “second runner up” of their season, indicating anyone who lost at FTC
I'm so happy David picked Twila, she's such a great character.
My pick would have to be Becky from Cook Islands, I'd love to see how she would fare without Yul, since they were allies since day 1.
Ok but Yul> Ozzy
Ozzy W
I can’t believe Angelina Keeley is a gay icon ❤
plz no aubry
Ozzy should have won - AGREED.
This cast is … not good.
Hannah? Tasha fishback, im only a quarter into the video and these picks are insane. Not in a good way.
Reem from the edge of extinction
