    "This is so hard. First and foremost it was the the majority, secondly I promised Mike today that I wouldn't vote for him"
    First episode, first vote confession, and it showcases beautifully why Natalie won. She managed to be on the correct side of every vote, set aside her own feelings to do the vote that was in her best interest, and put worth behind the connections she made with people and kept her word. She made such strong emotional/social connections yet didn't let how she may have felt about someone change her vote if she couldn't influence the majority about it in advance. And she clearly saw each of the people she eliminated as a person rather than a pawn.

    When I first watched the Samoa season, I thought Russell got robbed. A few years later, I looked back and realized why Natalie deserved to win over him. Now though, as I'm watching her vote confessionals, she mostly says "I'm doing it for Foa Foa" or "Majority rules". Which is once again making me question why she deserves the win if she's not giving herself any credit for wanting people out. Is Russell just delusional for giving himself most of the credit for the vote offs or did Natalie have some sort of strategy with her vote offs?

      Yep, that’s the problem he never watched survivor and viewed the game like a professional sport where the best player won no matter what and social bonds don’t influence anything. He didn’t understand or even know a social aspect of the game existed until recently! He never rewatched 19 or 20 which is part of it I think as well. His ego was so high from 2009-2015 he was just riding that high saying I’m the best player and should’ve won, then turned around and realized his marriage was lost and his company is gone. Survivor destroyed his life in a way it impacted his psyche for years.

    ugh reading the comments is so annoying. the most important thing in survivor is the social game, it doesn’t matter if u controlled the game, because if u were unlikeable and cocky, that’s a good reason to not make u win. That is the difference between Russell and Rob, Rob controlled everything AND everyone, he was likeable and understanding of what to do. Russell did a good job in the sttategic part, but the worst possible game in the social part. Natalie deserved it!

Russell is really arrogant but seems to have calmed down a lot since his time on Survivor. He's spoken about how he would play differently if he ever did play again. While there are plenty of people who dislike him within the survivor community, he's also made more friends than you would think.

      I don't even think his social game was that bad. I think it was him not willing to like apologize in their eyes. To be fair, I think he deserved his first win. Second with Sandra ehhh debatable but I think Sandra deserved that win because despite what people think Sandra plays a really smart game. First time Russell though he was right, he should of won, he deserved to win, the other players didn't want him to win purely out of being salty that he made it to the end over them. Many of player have lied, stole, and backstabbed wayyy worse and have come out ahead. I don't see any true reason other than his first season they just were salty he got to the end. I know they keep saying social game is a major part and it is, however if you're asking a jury to cast votes based on "outwit, outplay, outlast" then he did all of those 10X over and the Jury let emotion guide their decision. Which further irritates me now that they swapped to an open format, to specifically give each person a chance to explain how they embodied the "outwit, outplay, outlast". You can't preach thats what youre coming out to do but also say and heres the secret 4th thing "out social" like I get it social is a part of like I said but should only be to a degree.
