    Could we talk about Tyson's iconic shot at the intro where he turns into a eagle catching its pray out of the river? One of the best intro shots.

    @RandomRex6 3 роки тому +117

    Tyson is one of the most fascinating Survivor players to me. He's the only winner other than Boston Rob to take more than two tries to get a win under his belt, and he never really looked like a threat to win his first two tries like Rob did in his earlier attempts. I think it really does come down to not having the motivation to honestly throw his all into winning the first two times. Then Rachel goes specifically to weaken him and the kid gloves finally come off.

    • @cjtrules1
      @cjtrules1 3 роки тому +13

      Yeah. His first 2 times it definitely looks like Tyson was playing to have fun and play mind games more than win the whole game. His athleticism made him a dangerous challenge threat though so if when he loses a challenge, blindsiding him wasn't too challenging.

      Agrred in almost everything except that Rob wasn't really a threat to win in Marquesas since he was the first jury member and i doubt anyone from rotu would vote for him, in all-stars had he managed big tom's boot better i think he would have won the season

      I feel like Rob was a front runner in All Stars pretty much the entire time. Pre merge at least, he was a heavy favorite. It wasn’t until he started trailblazing in the post merge that it started to look shaky for him. But his first outing for sure…he had moments of brilliance but wasn’t really in any kind of power position.

    • @bigbuffguy9589
      @bigbuffguy9589 3 роки тому +1

      He definitely played a lot better, though he still made some significant mistakes. Specifically, choosing to draw a rock rather than playing an idol to protect his alliance is among the dumbest moves made by a winner.

    • @cjtrules1
      @cjtrules1 3 роки тому +5

      @@bigbuffguy9589 It's not one of the dumbest moves because he survived it. It would have been horrible if he would have drawn the 1 black rock. Since it worked out for him it is ballsy and risky, but you have to take risks and he did the math in his head at the time.

    If Sierra wasn't completely alone.. I think it would've come off less mean. She was like 19-20 years old, alone, literally no one on her side, and he was relentless. He's a lot funnier when he's mean to people who can take it.

    My first watch through of Tocantins, I was floored by just how quickly he could flip from making me laugh to making me physically uncomfortable with how mean he could be. Now I suppose I laugh more at him because I see it coming, but I was really satisfied seeing him go that first time. I think he gets better in his subsequent seasons, a little less outright belittling and a little more teasing in nature.

    Tyson ends up playing a really good winning game in Blood vs Water, whereas JT kinda plays a meh game in Game Changers.

    It's hard to say for certain if someone like Tyson could be a returning player for 2 more seasons in today's Survivor. (Don't count WAW because players for that season HAD to be a winner so that is a very specific condition and casting would be a small pool) His mean and blunt comments would really rub people the wrong way to the point I think more than 1 person would see him as a parasite to tribe morale. Tyson was brilliant though by offsetting most of those things by being silly, bu then again strategy has really picked up since Tocantins. I think this Tyson wasn't thinking about how winning multiple individual immunities would change his threat level to others and if he was aware of that along with not being increasingly brutal towards Sierra then I think he would of gotten to final 6, maybe 5.

I think he figured that as long as he was memorable, he'd be able to play again and again and he could win later (which, you know, works out nicely for him lmao) and since survivor pays every contestant, he probably just figured that if all else fails.. at least he gets a little money and a free vacation 🤷‍♀️

    Personally not a fan. I never understood why he bullied Sierra so much and why the fans brush it aside but then they don't forgive other players for much less.

    I never liked him. The best thing about him was when he basically voted himself out.

    Black woman voted off first. A true shocker. 🤦‍♂️

    I was never a fan of Tyson. Don’t know why, I’m just not a fan.
