Survivor 50 is almost here, and fans couldn’t be more excited. The landmark season has been teased for almost two years and is the largest returnee season in Survivor history. Survivor 50 will feature twenty-four returning players, twelve of whom hail from the New Era. While all of the players are threats in their own right, some have a bigger target on their backs than others. These four players in particular are in danger of being targeted early and potentially becoming the first elimination of the season.
Savannah Louie is in danger of being an early boot on Survivor 50 due to being a suspected winner
Savannah Louie is one of several players at a high risk of being home early on Survivor 50. As she last played on Survivor 49, the majority of the cast doesn’t know anything about her or her gameplay. The only person who knows about Savannah’s previous game is Rizo Velovic, who played alongside her on Survivor 49. This alone has put a target on Savannah’s back, as unfamiliarity can be scary when it comes to returning Survivor players.
While both Savannah and Rizo are unknown to the rest of the cast, Savannah’s threat level is slightly higher. Savannah is on a tribe with no other winners, whereas the other tribes each have one. This has caused some of her fellow seasons to suspect that she won Survivor 49. If Savannah is honest about winning the game, it’s likely that the rest of the cast may try to get her out of the game as soon as possible. Winners in returnee seasons are always a threat, no matter how they go about things.
Kyle Fraser could also be in danger among the Survivor 50 cast
Another recent winner on the Survivor 50 cast is Kyle Fraser. Kyle won Survivor 48, which finished airing shortly before the Survivor 50 cast flew out to film. Kyle’s win is fresh in everyone’s minds, which will likely make him an immediate target.
To make things even more complicated for Kyle, two of his allies from Survivor 48 are also playing again on 50. Kyle’s number one alliance Kamilla Karthigesu has returned, which puts somewhat of a target on both of their backs. Joe Hunter is also back, after being in an alliance with Kyle for the majority of Survivor 48. There are a lot of cards not in Kyle’s favor this season, which could very well result in him making an early exit.
Mike White may have a target on his back
Another player in potential danger could be Mike White. Mike played on Survivor 37, where he made it to the final three. He played a good game and is one of the most well-known players on Survivor 50. Mike will also be playing along with fellow Survivor 37 cast members Angelina Keeley and Christian Hubicki. Having two other players from his original season could potentially increase Mike’s threat level in the game.
Mike is most famous for writing and directing the hit show, The White Lotus. Survivor is ultimately a game for a million dollars, and Mike is arguably one of the wealthiest players. This could also contribute to some players targeting him early, as they may not think he needs the money as much as some of the others.
Q Burdette could also be targeted early
Q Burdette is best known for his chaotic gameplay during Survivor 46. He played a messy game, although his strategy took him to the final six. Q made crazy moves and even asked to be sent home at one point. While all of these antics made him a memorable player, he might not be a number one ally choice for the other Survivor 50 players.
If not enough people are willing to work with Q, then he could be an early target on his tribe. Q could try to redeem himself by introducing a new strategy, but the rest of the cast may still be wary of him. It’s possible that Q could be a target for an early boot, but it’s also possible that he could manage to make it far again.
Survivor is available to stream on Paramount+.
