Chris's Final Words“This has been a wild experience. I had no idea I'd end up going so far, and I didn't know I'd be making some controversial plays, either. When I pulled that stunt on Nick, I thought I was done for, but I somehow lasted so much longer. I wish I made it to the end, but we only had so many cards up our sleeves. The best part of this experience was the people. Getting to know people like Jug, Nick, Tay and Mayman better was cool, and you were a lot of fun to play with. Especially Jug - you're a great, kind person and always seemed two steps ahead of me. You've got a clever brain, don't forget it. To the remaining contestants - don't f**k it up! You're this close. I'm excited to see how the main alliance splinters, it will be delicious... " - Chris ( 𝕡𝕙𝕖𝕖𝕓𝕤)

TRIBAL COUNCIL
Spidey Probst: Welcome back to Tribal Council. Before we get started, let's bring in the members of the jury: Nadiya, Whitney, Reem, Elyse, Noura, Kara, John, and Chris (𝕡𝕙𝕖𝕖𝕓𝕤), voted out at the last Tribal Council. Now... let's get started!Spidey Probst: What do you think of Chris (𝕡𝕙𝕖𝕖𝕓𝕤)'s elimination from the game?Elyse ( ramona wants sleep): "o7" Fabio ( Fire): "they were a big threat" Dean ( Mayman): "It's been a long time coming, lol. Pheebs you played an excellent game and it was fun playing with you!" David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "Pheebs did so well for a first timer and I'm impressed. I just knew that if they made it to FTC, they could've made a very compelling case to win, so we did what had to be done. Pheebs, I respect you and your gameplay and I'm sorry we didn't have a better relationship. That's on me, but at some point you kind of entered threat status." Spidey Probst: How does it feel to be a member of the final four?David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "It feels a little crazy. I wasn't sure I'd actually get this far, but I'm glad because I always have a good time playing this game. Even if I don't win, I'm just happy to be here. :)" Dean ( Mayman): "It's great! I'm glad that I made it this far." Fabio ( Fire): "genuinely happy that i've gotten this far!" Elyse ( ramona wants sleep): "idk how i made it this far and im not gonna stop now" Spidey Probst: What did you think of your performance in the immunity challenge?Fabio ( Fire): "ugh i so thought i had this one! :(" Elyse ( ramona wants sleep): "my internet gave up on me so it sent late but it didnt matter bc i got the least right anyways lmao" Dean ( Mayman): "I'm very happy that I pulled out a win. I feel like I've gotten to know a lot of people this season and it paid off with this challenge." David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "That challenge wasn't very hard at all and it would've been nice to win that one. Hopefully I didn't need that win, but a part of me feels like I probably did." Spidey Probst: Throughout this season, what has been your biggest weakness in this game and why?Dean ( Mayman): "I'm not sure tbh." Fabio ( Fire): "challenges probably" Elyse ( ramona wants sleep): "social strats and planning ahead" David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "I formed some solid relationships this season, but probably not as many as I should have. I did end up starting school at some point and from there it was hard for me to put a ton of focus into this game. But I admit that my social game could've been better." Spidey Probst: Who should be the next person voted out of this game and why?Elyse ( ramona wants sleep): "a threat" Fabio ( Fire): "sorry to this person, i just need to keep moving forward" Dean ( Mayman): "I hate having to vote someone out this late in the game, but we have to, so I'm voting for the person who is just outside of my alliance." David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "Hopefully not me, but honestly you never know." Spidey Probst: It is now time to vote. David, you are up first.Spidey Probst: I'll go tally the votes... Once the votes are read, the decision is final. The person voted out will be asked to leave the Tribal Council area immediately. ... I will now read the votes...ELYSE

TRIBAL COUNCIL
Spidey Probst: Welcome back to Tribal Council. Before we get started, let's bring in the members of the jury: Nadiya, Whitney, Reem, Elyse, Noura, Kara, John, Chris, and Elyse (ramona wants sleep), voted out at the last Tribal Council. Now... let's get started!Spidey Probst: What do you think of Elyse (ramona wants sleep)'s elimination from the game?Fabio ( Fire): "it sucks having to vote someone out this far into the game" David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "It was a pleasure talking to her early on in the game and I think she did very well for herself this season." Dean ( Mayman): "I was sad to have to vote them out because I enjoyed playing with them. You did amazing Ramona ❤️❤️" Spidey Probst: How does it feel to have made it all the way to the final three?Dean ( Mayman): "Perfect cool! I never thought I would make it this far." Fabio ( Fire): "genuinely happy to get this far!!" David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "I don't know why but I didn't think I'd get to this point. Now I'm so close, and I'm certainly not giving up!" Spidey Probst: What did you think of your performance in the final immunity challenge?David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "I nailed it, but I'm usually not the fastest in these timed challenges so fingers crossed!" Dean ( Mayman): "I think I did good. I haven't seen who has won yet but I think I got most of them right." Fabio ( Fire): "haven't seen the results yet but i hope i did really well!!

I think that's when I knew that I was in for a great season."

Spidey Probst: Why do you deserve a spot at the Final Tribal Council over the other two remaining castaways?Dean ( Mayman): "I think I've done a great job of playing the game all around and have proved that I am worthy of a spot in the Final Tribal Council." David ( Adrian C. 🍓): "I deserve a spot because I fought to get to this point. I worked well with my allies to avoid being voted out despite having a target on my back. My challenge performances speak for themselves and I feel like overall, I've been a pretty consistent player this past season doing what I could to ensure my safety." Fabio ( Fire): "well, coming into this season i wanted to not stand out among the other players because i didn't want to paint a big target on my head, and i feel like i managed to fall right in the middle of playing too hard and playing too little. i feel like i did reach out to a lot of people during every tribal, so it's an improvement from my performance last season haha" Spidey Probst: Before we get to the vote, we have to see who won the final immunity challenge of the season:{Challenge} YOU HAVE A MAXIMUM OF 10 MINUTES TO ARRANGE THE FOLLOWING 13 MOMENTS FROM THIS SEASON IN THE CORRECT ORDER FROM #1 (earliest) to #13 (most recent):1.

Fabio's Final Words“while i definitely wish i could've gotten to the final 2, honestly i'm genuinely shocked i got this far to finish in the final three!! i didn't exactly have the greatest challenge performances so this game wasn't exactly in the cards for me to win, but in the end it was a blast and i had a ton of fun regardless. honestly i'll take a top 3 placement. to both mayman and adrian, i'm wishing both of you guys the best of luck at the final tribal council!! 💖💖💖💖" - Fabio ( Fire)

Good evening jurors and anyone from our audience! I just want to start off by saying how much of a great experience this was. Pulse Survivor has been one of my highlights during quarantine. I’ve played a few seasons now within the past year and I’ve had a blast every time. It’s definitely mentally draining and I really feel it right now haha. But I always have a good time getting to work with you guys and playing challenges. I really didn’t think I’d get this far to be quite honest, but it’s an honor to be here and sharing the Final Tribal Council floor with Mayman. As soon as the tribes were assigned, I reached out to everyone in my tribe (Mayman, Jugg, Jaden, and Ramona) to try to build connections that could help me as the game progressed. I know alliances are the key to being successful in Survivor, so I wanted to form them right from the start. I knew when I entered the game that there was the possibility of people seeing me as a threat, so I figured those connections could help downplay that a little bit. Mayman in particular is someone who I’d been wanting to work with, so I wanted to keep that connection strong. Our tribe dominated in the first few immunity challenges, which was great because I really didn’t want to vote out any of my tribemates. Then things changed when we reached the tribe swap. We lost Mayman, who I considered to be my closest ally at the time. But I still shared a tribe with Jugg, Jaden, and Ramona, and we agreed to stick together as the tribal phase continued. With that, my connection with Jugg grew stronger and I felt like we’d be a good duo at the merge. We did lose a couple immunity challenges, resulting in the loss of Tay and Avatar. Going into the merge, Jugg was my main ally. Pheebs and I had talked and we agreed that Nick was the biggest threat in the game, so we thought it’d be a good idea to take him out. We tried to get the numbers for that and it was unsuccessful, with Jaden being the one voted out. At that point, I started to reevaluate my place in the game. Nick and I have a great friendship and he wanted to work with me, so I decided it was too early to vote him out and I joined him and his alliance with Mayman, Mylo, and Fire, while still trying to keep a good connection with Jugg. During this time, I tried to do as much as I could in the challenges because that has proven to be one of my strengths in this game. I especially did the best I could in the Endurance challenge as I’ve done super well in that challenge in the past and I knew the stakes were high going into the next Tribal Council. So I wanted to have that ensured safety and I got it. I joined the tribal with Nick and Jugg because I wanted to vote out Pheebs, who I felt was starting to become a threat (and they called me out at the joint tribal early on in the tribal phase). Pheebs was sneaky though and pulled out an idol, resulting in me losing Nick, which was unfortunate because I felt like there was still more we could’ve done together. Moving forward, I still had Jugg as well as Mayman and Fire. Mayman won the next immunity challenge and Gabe and Pheebs had lost their votes at the upcoming tribal. We wanted to try voting out Pheebs again since it seemed like a good opportunity to do so, but of course Gabe ended up being medically evacuated from inactivity. After that is when things got interesting. I won the next immunity challenge and I was talking to Jugg about the vote. I wanted to vote out either Mylo or Pheebs, both of whom had hinted at targeting me at some point in the game. But Jugg wanted to vote out Fire as he felt Mayman and Fire were a tight duo. Initially, I just agreed to that. But then I started to put the pieces together. Jugg wanted to keep Pheebs because there was a connection there that I was unaware of. Some of Jugg’s previous tribal responses included “making moves” and how “backs need to be stabbed”. It hit me that he was the other person to vote Nick at the double tribal council after initially telling me it was Fire. At that point I realized he was trying to set me up for elimination by keeping Mylo and Pheebs so that I could be voted out the moment I lost immunity. I knew I had a choice to make. Either I would stay with Jugg, vote Fire, and risk possibly going home in the near future, or I would join Mayman/Fire in voting for Pheebs. I did what I felt would help me in the long run and (assuming that Mylo was with Jugg and Pheebs) I used my vote steal advantage from the auction to avoid us going to a tie. But Pheebs used another idol and we went to a tie anyway, but it actually benefited me because it was between Mayman and Fire. With me being immune, all I had to do was insist on going to the rock draw, which meant May, Fire, and I would all be safe. Mylo was the unlucky one and it hurt to see it happen because I hate when people are outed from rocks. But after that chaos, I felt like I was in a good place again. Mayman became my closest ally again and with the help of Fire, we were able to take out Jugg, Pheebs, and Ramona, leading to us three being in the Final 3. Initially I believed I needed to win immunity to make it to the Final 2. Fortunately, the final immunity challenge was very easy with how closely I paid attention to the game throughout the whole season. So then, I had to decide who I would take with me to the Final 2. I thought Fire did so well this season and I’m happy that he got to redeem himself after going out from a rock draw in New Blood. At the same time, he seemed like the kind of underdog that the jury would vote for. I’ve been wanting to work with Mayman ever since we were voted out of All-Stars and so he was the first person I reached out to at the start of the season. He is an awesome player and his loyalty helped me get to this point, to which I’m very grateful. So I ultimately decided that I would battle it out with him as I feel that he is also deserving of his place here tonight. So what is it that I’m trying to prove? I want to make it clear that I am not a perfect player. I made mistakes this season and I’m willing to own up to them. But I got here for a reason. I knew when to be strategic for my own safety. I had alliances that helped me avoid being voted out despite being painted as a target in the eyes of some. I excelled in the challenges both pre-merge and post-merge. Even though I didn’t win every immunity challenge, I won immunity when I needed it. Throughout the season, I’ve been determined to do well, and here I am. With all that said, I believe I am deserving of the title of Sole Survivor and I hope to earn your vote tonight. But regardless, this has been an amazing experience and I loved getting to play with you all. You’re all an awesome group of people and I’m honored to be here tonight with my good friend Mayman. Thank you all for reading and I hope you consider voting for me tonight!

Well hey everyone! It’s been quite the crazy but fun season and we’re nearing the end of this journey. Before I begin, I just want to say how great it was to get to know each and everyone of you this season. It’s been a blast playing with all of you and getting to know each of one of you guys even further has been a part of what makes this season so special to me. This game has helped me take my mind off of everything going on in real life and I’m so grateful for that. Thank you to everyone for making this experience so awesome!
I’ll now get into what I did during this season and why I ended up here. The goal of this game is to Outwit, Outplay, Outlast everyone else to become the ultimate Sole Survivor. Tonight, I want to explain myself, my actions, my gameplay, and my thinking to help show you why I should receive your vote tonight.
Going into this season, I was a little nervous because there were a lot of people I didn’t know and wasn’t sure what would happen. When our tribes were announced, I quickly formed relationships with all of my tribemates to make sure that I had potential alliances to work with at the start of the game. I would say my strongest relationships during the first few days of the game were with Adrian and Jaden. I quickly connected with them a lot and had quite the long talks with them. My other tribemates, Jugg and Ramona I also felt like I had a connection to and could potentially trust them during the game.
Our tribe quickly became a force to be reckoned with as we had won all three pre-tribe switch challenges. I was also consistently one of the top ranking scorers for the challenges, proving that I was pulling my weight for the tribe. During my time on the original Uri tribe, we never once went to Tribal Council, resulting in all five original members to be in before the tribe switch.
Speaking of that tribe switch, well… things definitely got switched up. After the new tribes were revealed, I had come to the realization that I was completely separated from my tribe. All 4 stayed together while I was switched to the Valais tribe. Going in, I was worried that they would quickly vote me out as I was the odd man out. Before I would let that happen, as we all know, there was quite the divide between Gabe and Mylo/Fire. I quickly formed relationships with those 3, as well as Nick. I did this because I needed to take advantage of this potential division with this tribe. I also knew that if I had relationships with these members, that I would be able to get information from both sides.
Our first challenge after the tribe switch was the Post War. This Post War helped me prove my worth to this tribe. After our tribe was quickly falling behind in the number of posts compared to the other tribe, I was thinking of ways to help our tribe get united and take back the lead for the challenge. I helped my tribe by giving hourly updates of our standings compared to the other tribe, as well as making a full list of ways and quotes we could potentially use to get the other tribe to double post. I ended up having the most posts out of everyone and had gotten our tribe ahead and eventually won the challenge. It was a great moment showing that I could perform well, unite our tribe, and show that I was an essential part of the tribe. After 18 days of not losing a challenge, I lost my first challenge of the season and had to attend Tribal Council. I was the only person remaining in the game to not have attended a Tribal Council. I quickly gathered support along with Nick, Gabe, Fire and Mylo to potentially vote out Dremulus. He didn’t submit for the challenge and sealed the deal for us all when he suggested that he wanted to vote Crimsonio out of the game (yes, Crimsonio, the co-host of this season). Drem was voted out 5-1 and our tribe was pretty strong.
After this, the merge and Exile Mountain re-entry challenge took place. I was excited to potentially reunite with some of my old tribemates. Tay returned to the game and since I hadn’t been on the same tribe as them during the game, I messaged them congratulating them and was interested in forming a relationship with them. I was told by others that they also messaged Tay with no response. I was confused and commented on it after Jaden was voted out at Tribal Council a few days later.
The next few couple outs were simple ones. I was in the know for just about every vote of the game and I just about always knew what was going on. Jaden I knew was going out, but I didn’t want to vote him because he was a close ally and voting him out after forming a good relationship with him would not have been good jury management. (Even this early on, I was thinking about how I was perceived by others and paying attention to my jury management.) Jaden was and continues to be a close friend and I couldn’t bring myself to be involved with his vote out. The next elimination, Tay, was one that pretty much everyone agreed on after the last Tribal Council. Nick and I had discussed them potentially having an Immunity Idol from when they returned in the game, which evidently was true. Although I wasn’t positive at the time, I played my Snowball Advantage Nullifier on Tay to ensure that they wouldn’t be able to play an idol and potentially let their vote with their alliance take out one of my close allies. This worked and Tay was voted out.
A few days prior to the Tay elimination, a rankdown of the players remaining in the game was hosted by Spidey to see who everyone thought was playing the best game. I came in 2nd, behind Nick. I was surprised to see everyone thought I was playing so well but concerned that I had become a potential threat and target for the other players. This concern became even bigger when Nick was voted out at the Double Tribal Council after Pheebs had played an idol. I was sad that my ally was voted out, but also worried that I was now the biggest threat in the game.
After this, I need to ensure that I wasn’t everyone’s target in the game. At the immunity challenge after this, I had gotten my first immunity win of the season, keeping me safe at Tribal Council. As I was talking to people, I had realized that Pheebs could potentially be seen as a big threat after their move against Nick at the Double Tribal Council. I would soon realize I would need to get people to consider Pheebs as the bigger threat rather than me. This would work, and I even managed to flip Pheebs’ closest ally to vote against them at the next Tribal Council. This would all be cancelled out when Spidey announced that Gabe was, unfortunately, removed from the game. I would go on to win the next reward challenge as well.
One thing I really focused on this season was to be honest with people. Everytime I spoke to you guys, I was telling the truth. I wanted to make it known that people could trust me with what I said to them. After the Gabe evacuation Tribal, I was very thankful for Jugg for being understanding and trusting of me. He then asked me if I had any advantages that we could use to take out Pheebs at the next Tribal, which I said I didn’t. I would soon realize that this would be used to potentially vote me out at the next Tribal Council. I had known that something was up with Jugg, but I still wanted to vote for Pheebs and keep them as the primary target instead of me. Pheebs would play an idol and the remaining votes would be one for Fire, as well as my first and only vote I received during the season. Adrian, Mylo, Pheebs, and Jugg would ultimately decide if they were going to draw rocks or come to a unanimous decision. Adrian ultimately decided that he wanted Mylo and Jugg to draw rocks, saving Fire and I, but also resulted in Mylo drawing the black rock and ending his game.
Ramona would return to the game the next day, I messaged them saying that I was open to working with them again like we did originally in the season. I had learned from Fire that Ramona gave them an Idol when they returned to the game. After Pheebs had won immunity, I knew that this was Jugg’s time to go. Jugg would soon message us asking if we could vote him out. I was confused and I thought it was a set-up for us to vote for him, him then play an idol, and then vote either me or one of my allies out. (BTW, Jugg, this is why I mentioned this in my statement at Tribal Council. I wanted the jury to know this information in case anything had happened.) To ensure my safety in case Jugg did play an Idol, I convinced Fire to play his Immunity Idol on me at that Tribal Council. Although it wasn’t needed, it showed that I had full trust of my allies and I also trusted them too.
In the final days, things were a little bit quieter. After Pheebs lost the immunity challenge, we all decided that it was Pheebs time to go. After Pheebs’ elimination, I was looking to be the biggest threat left and I had to ensure that nobody would try to flip and vote me out in the final days. I had won the next immunity challenge, ensuring that this would not happen. As Adrian, Fire, and I had been such a long standing alliance, we ultimately decided that Ramona would be who we were all voting for. (Ramona, I’m so sorry that we had to vote you out, it’s just how things worked out. It was awesome getting to know you this season and you played really well!)
Finally, after it was revealed Adrian had won the Final Immunity Challenge, he had voted out Fire and decided to take me with him to the Final 2. I was very happy to see that he had chosen me!
Adrian has been a great player this season. But what I think sets me apart from him is that I have ultimately made a lot of the decisions throughout the game, especially during the most crucial moments in the game. Both of us were pretty equal when it came to challenges, but when it comes to the social aspect of the game, I think I played exceptionally well, whereas with Adrian, it was often me making decisions for him and my other allies. At times, I felt like Adrian was using me to take all of the hits and he could just slide by squeaky clean.
That’s all from me for my opening statement. Throughout the remainder of the night, I want to further prove to you why I should get your vote to become this season’s Sole Survivor. I want to wish Adrian good luck and thank the jury for being with us tonight!
