The most Ingenious move was Fabio pretending like he didn't care if they voted him off so they voted for Benry

I think it's also important to note that Chris' move was less "I need a flashy move to impress the jury" and more "I can NOT sit next to Rick Devens". The one thing that Chris had that Dom didn't when he was in a similar position was information. He lived with the jury so he knew their perceptions of the remaining players. I'm guessing he probably had a good idea that Julie couldn't win because she was seen as a follower, Gavin likely could get some votes but not enough to win because he was likable yet a bit cowardly, and Rick would win hands down if he was in the final. That's deadly information because it's basically a sure thing without much guesswork on Chris' part. I give him a ton of credit for playing the cards he was dealt and going all in. Although I'd be even more impressed if I saw the same sort of move play out on a more traditional season where the person pulling it off isn't 100% sure that they're in a fire or bust position.

Even though I don't care for Chris as a winner at all, him giving up his final 4 necklace to beat Devens in the fire challenge was ingenious.

I had a textbook in college that literally used the Hatch/Rudy/Kelly challenge from Survivor to explain the Nash Equilibrium

Tyson's confessionals will always be some of the best. 😂😂 'I lied straight to your face and you ate it up.'

In fairness to Todd, the main reason his plan didn't work that well is because Denise was too picky of an eater, and made it impossible for James to throw the challenge.

Todd was one hella genius . China was very underrated in terms of players , moves and gameplay. Also RIP Ashley.

Richard Hatch's move in the f3 may just be the greatest move ever made.

Who needs Survivor when you have Peridiam? Seriously I enjoy these videos more than the show itself sometimes 😂

the funny thing is that Parv in Micronesia was in the same situation of Richard, idk if she throw the challenger on purpose but she knew that if she won that challenger and eliminated Cirie, Cirie wouldn't vote for her in the FTC and she knew that both Amanda and Cirie would take her to FTC.

I'm one of the few who think of Jenna's move as a savvy defensive move. As long as she knew Rob was being honest about wanting to face her in the final 2, ensuring Heidi was safe kept some of her options open once Christy was voted out. Rob was playing real well but you could kind of see in his eyes that this move caught him off guard. This was long before the "live tribal council" era, so really sticking with the plan was his only choice. Anyways, great content as always.

Wow! What a plot twist! You blindsided us with the tomorrow upload reveal! I'm gonna vote for you for the title of sole KZfaq Survivor!

Tyson!!! One of my favorite winners and I loved how he won the game while having fun doing it. Love him and this move

What made Jenna's move even more ingenious as that it reduced her perceived threat level in the guys' eyes, leading them to target Heidi over her at the final 5 thinking that Jenna didn't have the drive to win.

It's amazing how you bother to sift through all the Survivor episodes to highlight all these gems :)

when u get home from school getting happy to watch another peridiam video!!!! hype for season 40 hopefuly 39 isnt bad

Atta boy Todd. Even though the move didn’t pan out, it would’ve been a game changing move

We need a video of best ingenious moves by survivor losers! Like when Cao Boi started the idol split with Plan Voodoo and when Devon saved himself in the final 5 by voting for Dr Mike or when he made Ben go under cover with Chrissy and Ryan.

possible video idea: most ingenious moves by survivors to never win

Love your videos, best place to find good in depth analysis of survivor

so, Vecepia's total preparation for the endgame in Marquesas is gonna be part of this right?

Been waiting for this video I love all ur vids so much

I know it’s not survivor season but when it is I really want to see a video on players who have had a major impact on the way the game is played. The first two that come to mind are Richard Hatch who showed us how to play the game in the first place and second Russell Hantz who I believe started the trend of looking for and finding idols without clues. If you pick neither that would be fine but something along those lines.

Peridiam, I have NEVER clicked so fast to watch a video!

Tyson physical, social, strategic and kinda crazy.... How good was the guy

The Richard Hatch example isn't a Nash Equilibrium, but rather a Pareto Optimal play. I wrote about it last semester, actually.

Another ingenious move was in Survivor Africa, when Ethan Zohn did what Richard Hatch did in season 1 in the final 3. Ethan dropped out knowing that Lex was the biggest threat to win and couldn't cut him because he would lose Lex's jury vote and potentially losing Tom's jury vote as well. Basically the same logic as Rich in season 1 were Lex was like Rudy and Kim Johnson was like Kelly

It’s clear from watching post game interviews that Chris had an advantage no one ever has had before in the game. He was allowed to literally plan out an ideal path to the finals WITH the jury, Chris knew exactly what the jury wanted him to do in order to win the vote, and knew anything less would result in a loss. While I can understand respecting the fact he actually pulled it out, I really don’t give him any strategical props for anything he did. His strategy was not his own, it was the collective strategy of EoE who would ultimately be the jury. Which makes the whole thing very underwhelming in my opinion

I’m literally so excited for tomorrow’s video omg

You’re making us wait again!?!? This is torture!!!!!

"Don't make me watch Big Brother"???? WHAT? How DARE you SIR!

James smacking Todd's arm so hard that Todd says "you almost killed me just then!" makes me laugh to this day!

While chris made that amazing move he also had so so so long to live risk free with the jury, he didnt play well enough to win but that move really was amazing.

Great editing on the ending. See you tomorrow then!

People who we know to have thrown the final immunity challenge for similar reasons to Hatch: Vecepia, Marquesas Matthew, Amazon Aras, Panama

This is getting very strange how obsessed I am with a show that doesn't even air in my country 😂😂 try us again in England, we will appreciate it more this time 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Tyson=Waluigi

So glad you mentioned Jenna. She’s very underrated.

I get the whole “Nash equilibrium” concept, and I think keeping in mind what everyone’s best move at any given point is has its merits, but Survivor is so much more complex than that. Human beings are not computers, playing the game with this “Nash equilibrium” as a primary focus results in the worst kind of player. One who leaves the game convinced they made the right moves and it’s because of the mistakes of others that they lost.

chris' case is super interesting i think he knew even if he made it through and rick didn't he wouldn't win. and he looked at everyone else making fire and realized they couldn't beat rick

In addition to being unprecedented, the Jenna move ended up utterly destroying all the spoilers at the time, if I recall correctly. Survivor Amazon was a HEAVILY spoiled season on the internet and had gotten a lot of the boots correct post-merge. And Heidi was up next, slated to go out at Final 6. When Jenna handed over that necklace, it was an even bigger shock to the people "in the know" that season. It didn't make a huge difference in the end, the spoiler was still right about the endgame, it's just a memorable meta moment for that move.

Thank you for being a good channel

Honestly the Tyson strategy of stealing food and then later convincing his tribe to max out on eating to where he was never going to sleep hungry gave him a massive edge

Holy shit. That Nash equalibrium thing. I didn't even know that... now I had to pause to comment because I can't get the idea out of my head lol

Ofc you'd say huge and ginormous for Chris

Each time Im reminded Tyson will be back in 40, I get excited.

Never clicked on something quicker

It should never be understated how good Richard Hatch was, you have to remember the players in Boreno were inventing the game of Survivor, they couldn't rely on previous seasons to help them come up with game play moves plus since everybody is a wild card in that season, it took a serious level of skill to be able to even make it that far. To come up with the idea of throwing the final immunity because he knew that Kelly wouldn't take Rudy and that Rudy would take him because of Rudy's loyalty was genius. Rich couldn't risk winning final immunity because he would then vote out Rudy and there was a major chance Rudy wouldn't vote for him due to breaking his word.

Hopefully this is the last time I’ll comment on EoE. But just wanted to propose something. Maybe Chris giving up immunity will be the beginning of the end of the final four fire making. In this “Big Moves” era the F4 immunity winner will almost always give up immunity if a bigger threat exists, and maybe that makes a hot potato of everyone not wanting immunity. Maybe this happening enough times will piss off Jeff enough to make him get rid of the challenge altogether

I have a idea for u...do a history of the late season challenge run like fabio,kelly, Jenna M,etc

"In case you missed part 1 or 2 somehow" Yeah, who could be living under that fucking rock?

I’m so excited for big brother broooooo be excited!!

Edge of extinction was probably one of my favorite casts tbh

Nick Wilson needs to be on the next list. He made many ingenious moves espectuly the John blindside and the minority split vote.

i always wondered, what if julie sniffed out what chris was doing, and took chris instead, making gavin/rick go to firemaking. i guess she saw rick as a bigger problem than chris, so thought it would be optimal if the both of them went to firemaking since both could win and there would be 0 chance to win if they were both there, rather than a slightly larger chance if one of them + gaving

Matt in The Amazon claims he threw the final immunity challenge, for reasons similar to Hatch's.

I think Hatch threw Final 3 hold the pole challenge was because both Kelley and Rudy were going to bring Rich to the final so he was safe. If he wins then he loses to Rudy or has to betray Rudy, maybe/probably losing his vote.

Kinda off topic but when James started yelling yes at Phe gee I lost it 😭😭

Between RHAP Survivor Specialists Peridiam TAR international Survivor and that Nintendo E3 news this is a pretty bearable survivor off season, big brother (which I’m also looking forward to) not needed :)

After being reminded of Rich's move to throw the final immunity. I do wonder if Parvati threw the last immunity challenge in Micronesia aswell? This way she didn't have to burn Cirie.

Love Ur Vids

Im surprised we havent seen an entry for Jeremy yet

the last time i was this early survivor season 40 all winners had someone booted 1st out alrd tho

Peridiam video on a Thursday? you spoil us.

ALL HAIL KING TYSON!

You said that the move that Richard did hasn't happended again, but its not true, Parvati threw the final immunity challenge in micronesia because she knew that both Cirie and Amanda were taking her and she didn't wanna burn any votes. Love your vids by the way

Can you do this kind of video: Fixing the cast of game changes Cuz I think u should

"Don't make me watch Big Brother" Relatable

simple man, peridiam, click.

Just to add onto the Hatch move, Parvati threw the Micronesia final immunity challenge

the most ingenious move was the cameraman not getting bitten by the snake at 11:08

the thing that a lot of people miss about Richards move is the fact that if he won and voted off rudy he wouldn't have got rudys vote or a lot of other peoples vote because he would have been a back stabber so Kelly would have won in that sinario... the only way he could win was to let Kelly win

I love Todd and I’m so sad that he has struggled so much with substance abuse. Hopefully he’s in a better place now

Peridiam, I would still like to know why Chris got to decide who went in the fire making challenge. When Chris offers up his immunity to Julie, Julie has immunity. This whole twist is that the immunity holder chooses someone to sit with them forcing the other two to make fire. At this time, Julie has the immunity, she should decide not Chris. If i was her i would take chris with me and make Gavin and Rick make fire. This makes no sense to me the way it played out.

I thought there was speculation that Parvati through her final immunity challenge as well

TOMORROW!? INGENIOUS!!

I like how he knows survivor is so much better than big brother

I’m earlier than that dude who leaked the All Winners season lol

Thanks.

Oh no he's talking about edge of extinction, I'm leaving fellas

BIGGEST FAN HERE

The off season (S39) would've been a lot cooler if they actually got something like 14/16 celebrities on with Sandra and Rob coaching them. We've had a lot of celebrities previously on and it would make for a season they could do whatever with to test for season 40+

You should watch some Australian Survivor, the next season starts in a month. 😀

5:56 Boogie did it in Big Brother All Stars

Peridiam can’t you do a video on who you think can win season 40? (All winners)

What about Vecepia using her journal to take notes for the Fallen Comrades challenge?

can we talk about the survivor 40 cast rumors!? all winners!

how about a video on moves by runner ups that more than likely cost them the game

Shoutout to my original Survivor Queen, Jenna M.! Yasss

In Marquesas, didn't Vecepia do almost the exact same thing as Richard did in S1? The only difference is that she waited until after Kathy (the "Rudy" in that situation, who would've won against either of the other two people) fell off, then hustled her by making a new deal with Neleh.

Hey Perdiam, how do you watch all the seasons because on amazon prime seasons these seasons aren't free: 2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37

vecepia threw the the challenge at the final 3 so she didn’t have to go up against kathy

king Peridian

Peridiam, Season 40 is an all winner season and Jeff Probst at the season 38 didn’t say go apply to be on survivor do you think season 41 is an all returnee season or is survivor ending at season 40?

7:28 reckynized 😂

0:10 Don't be hating on BB Peridiam 🤨

Can u educate me on Michele's ingenious move please

i think aras also threw the final immunity at panama after terry falls into the water. he let danielle won so if danielle cuts terry and breaks her promise, she then loses his vote and the la mina's votes. If aras won that immunity and cut terry, maybe terry would be hurt and vote for danielle with the lamina. given that aras is arrogant that time, terry could be pissed and vote against him. 3 lamina plus bruce. Maybe danielle could have won? lol.

6:25 This is a bit of a weird thing to be pointing out, but Gretchen's last name is Cordy, not Klug.

Peridiam can watch survivor south africa.
