Survivor: Blood vs Water | Why Tyson Won | David Bloomberg & Jessica Lewis

Tyson came into this Blood vs. Water already seen as a threat. The idea of him being a threat then came up a numerous times throughout the season. Yet nobody ever mounted a serious attempt to vote him out. How did he put himself into such a favorable position and control the game so well? David and Jessica did a full season rewatch and compared the Final 3 to David’s rules, so it’s time to take a new look at Why Tyson Won.

As we take a look back at past seasons of Survivor on the RHAP All-Time Top 40 Season Rankings, some winners make us scratch our heads and think hmm how did they win? Today, David Bloomberg (@DavidBloomberg) and Jessica Lewis (@jessicalewis89) are here to apply David’s seven rules of Survivor to Tyson’s game. They walk us through the season of Survivor: Blood vs Water as they explain Why Tyson Won!

David Bloomberg’s Seven Rules of Survivor: 

1) Scheme and Plot

2) But Don’t Scheme and Plot Too Much/Keep Your Scheming Secret/Don’t Backstab Until You Absolutely Need To

3) Be Flexible!

4) Don’t Let Your Emotions Control You

5) Pretend To Be Nice/Play the Social Game – Act Like an Adult/Don’t Drink Too Much/Don’t Be Lazy or Show Your Bad Habits/Keep Your Politics and Controversial Beliefs To Yourself

6) Don’t Be Too Much of a Threat

7) Trust (Almost) Nobody

Appendix A: The Jury Phase
