what's going on guys flintmasters coming back at you with another video in a very different
type of video today as due to my blood vessel water video taking up a ton of time this week
i decided to take a little break from an edited video and go down the blm route with one of
these what-if scenario videos as today i'll be giving my take on what would have happened
if each metadata player in survivor hadn't been medivacked and yeah before we begin i
want to give a shout out to blm aka the marine review for the concept of these type of videos
and please make sure to give him a sub as he puts a ton of work into his videos
and in my opinion gives far too much hate and deserves some recognition for the work he does
as his digging deep for info has really changed my perspective on a lot of survivor players
and makes videos like these a lot easier for me as well and i try my best to avoid copying
other survivor youtubers as i like to have my own little fun niche here on my channel and obviously
these sort of videos are more so his niche um but this is one of the most requested videos
i see in his comments however the other day i saw someone say that he doesn't want to do this video
due to the amount of unknown variables and a lot of these scenarios and yeah fair warning guys a
lot of these scenarios are extremely vague especially with the ones happening early in
the game so since he's not doing it combined with the fact that doing a video like this would be the
only way i could get a new video out by sunday i decided to take a crack at it so yeah we'll
look at how that evacuated player possibly would have done combined with how the season would have
shaped out had it not been for the evacuation with that said guys make sure to hit that like and sub
button as i've been working really hard to get some content out for you guys with all that out
of the way let's begin with the first evacuation in survivor history michael scoopin and yeah i've
covered this before but i truly think scooping wins the outback if he doesn't get mad at backed
or at the very least makes the final three now if kucha does lose the final pre-merge immunity
challenge i think the season plays out relatively the same but if cucho wins that challenge they
most likely bagong ogakore and nick is probably number six since he had no real allies on kucha
and yeah at that point scooping is in a swing vote spot between jeff and alicia and elizabeth and
roger and i think the smart move is the opposite side with the weaker pair and roger and elizabeth
now to be fair the final mew challenge of the season wasn't an endurance challenge so it's not
a foregone conclusion that scooping gets to the final tribal council but if he does i truly think
he beats both roger and elizabeth i mean of course both of them were loved by the players out there
but scooping just seems so respected by everyone and i think it's a borneo-like situation where
yes i'm sure roger or elizabeth gets some boats but i just simply think the majority of the jury
will respect scoop in his gameplay more so yeah as scary as that is to imagine scooping makes a very
deep run in the outback if he's not medevaced and maybe even wins now on to the second medevac which
actually took place 10 seasons later in survivor panama where bruce has evacuated at the final
seven and i think he still goes home here at seven no matter what assuming that terry wins immunity
now siree did want courtney gone eventually after the sketchy questions challenge but i think she
still waits until the final six either way to take her out you know now if she does pick up bruce to
blindside corny at seven you know then maybe bruce gets a bit farther but i mean i think he just
probably gets taken out in one of the next couple rounds and of course if terry does lose immunity
kasaya i'll vote for him and he idles out ours and who knows how bruce's game or panama in general
plays out at that point but i truly think the most realistic outlook is that terry wins immunity
and gossiah vote out bruce as he was on the bottom of the alliance now on to micronesia the
first season to feature two evacuations the first one being jonathan penner and while i do think
he makes the merge i don't see him getting much farther than that as he's probably on the bottom
with eliza and jason at the merge and is taken out in the 10-7 range as for the second evacuation of
this season and james i really don't think much changes here as james is simply the next to go
at seven anyway barring in a muti run which of course is unlikely considering james never won
an individual immunity in his survivor career so yeah probably the most boring and obvious outlook
here as even if james doesn't get evacuated i think he once again finishes in seventh place
but the true butterfly effect this evacuation has is that it turns the season into a final three
you know due to the two evacuations and kathy quitting survivor had to expand its schedule thus
making micronesia a final two instead of a final three like it was originally supposed to be so
yeah arguably the biggest on paper monster to ever play survivor getting injured costs sere the win
i swear dude life is cruel at survivor toca jeans we have joe getting evacuated at the merge and
this is a pretty interesting one as well i think brendan is definitely the merge boot what happens
after that is up in the air with tyson winning and muti at the final nine i think sierra goes home in
that spot and i think tyson is blindsided at the final eight once again for being a challenge beast
so i mean at that point joe is now in the majority four with jalapal but i do think he is blindsided
soon after i mean we saw just how close coach was to jt and steven and of course aaron was along for
the ride that's an easy number for jalapal so i think joe either goes home at six or seven for
being a challenge and possible jury threat to jt and steven and the final five plays out the
same way that season now on to the first of two evacuations in samoa we have mike and i think
mike makes it farther but i don't see him making the merge you know fofo has simply had to keep
the team strong at that point so he either goes before or after ashley you know i think that's the
trajectory i have for him but either way i don't see mike staying in the game impacting the season
that much however the next evacuation may have a case for changing the course of survivor history
if this person isn't evacuated and that person is russell swann so a couple things to ponder here
russell's evacuation episode was supposed to be a double tribal and i've got lou votes out shambo
there i think it's an almost guarantee that glue dominates to merge and even if they spare shambo
and get rid of someone like monica i still think russell holds the tribe together and talks them
out of blindsiding eric because that's the thing right what caused gallu's downfall in the first
place was eric's blind side so if russell swann keeps galu on board at the merge and they vote
out json russell wastes his idol there at the final 12. and now suddenly the fallout falls
are down 83 in the numbers and yeah i just don't see how they get out of that and you know i'm
sure russell hans will continue to save himself for a couple more votes with idols and whatnot
but at some point i do think he gets taken out at the min merge and yeah that loan massively changes
survivor history as it's hard to imagine russell coming back at that point for heroes vs villains
if he did in fact finish in like 9th or 10th place in samoa and as far as who wins for golu
i've speculated one of the dave john eric trio winning but that was without russell if russell's
there i feel he's either a swing vote between that alliance and the girls alliance and brett or taken
out at like six or seven for being too big of a threat so while i don't see russell swann winning
if he's not evacuated i do think he holds glue together at the merge with russell hans being a
mid-merge boot now on to survivor one world where we got an evacuation in the very first episode
with that person being courtney moon and the only real effect this has season wise is that christina
is probably the first boot but after that who knows what happens now as far as courtney's
trajectory i'm going to say she's either a pre-merged boot or is in kind of like that
christina position where she scrapes on by to the merge hangs with the woman's alliance and is taken
out just before the final three but yeah obviously not really much i can truly speculate here given
the circumstances and now a very interesting medevac to talk about here as we have colton get
a medevac right before the merge and once again christina is saved by a medevac as i think it's
almost certain manana loses immunity and she was literally told that she would be the boot that
night so i guess the question here is how much does colton and his idol affect the one world
merge i think if anything he probably plays with the girls as well to start the merge to get rid of
players like jonas and mike but i just can't see how colton outsmarts kim here even with his idol
like the only way i can see colin taking over the game is if he somehow gets all the guys in alicia
against the woman to start the merge but again i don't think that was ever realistically happening
as solani were too strong at the merge which again you know if anything i feel colin would have tried
to you know ingratiate himself into that majority alliance come to merge and to be honest i have no
idea where colin lands this season you know maybe he's the last guy standing and goes out at like
five or six but i think more than likely you know this is probably my best guess is that he
gets blindsided i like the final 11 or 10 with an idol in his pocket as kim uses the selani
alliance to take him out before ultimately forming the women's alliance with the season playing out
relatively the same after that now for survivor caramel and we have shimaru being the first of
two medical evacuations going out at the final 16. and yeah i can't see shimar go much further anyway
i mean the fact that he was casted in the first place given his size was ridiculous and is either
taken out soon after this or is an easy goat to drag to the end however the big change i think
that happens with shamar still in the game is that eddie goes home that night remember the fans were
already down in the numbers 9-8 going into that episode with it being 9-7 by the time tribal
council came which is why they felt they had no choice but to keep the tribe as strong as possible
however if shamar is still in the game i feel the majority uses him to split the votes on reynold
and eddie with eddie being the one to go home as reynold plays his idol and of course that really
makes this season even worse than it already is as the three amigos antics at the merge was really
one of the highlights of the season we now have another interesting one to talk about considering
this is tied for the latest evacuation to ever take place in survivor and that of course is
eric getting evacuated at the final five from that same season and the situation is very clear here
if cochran gets to the end he wins no matter what the only way eric can win is if he gets to the
final three while also taking out cochrane and the only way i see this happening is if he wins both
immunities which to be fair was a real possibility so at the final five if he loses he goes home if
he wins eddie goes home and final four same thing if he loses he obviously goes home but if he wins
things might get pretty interesting at that point as i'm sure he guns for cochran there and while i
don't think he gets dawn to flip on cochrane i feel like sherry has no choice but to vote with
eric to save herself right i mean she's definitely the target for cochran and dawn if eric is immune
and in that case we get a fire making challenge with eric's fate being in the hands of sherry
and yeah i can't imagine how cochrane doesn't win that challenge even further in his resume
so yeah really not many ways i can see eric winning the game now i can totally see him
making it to the final chapel council and being the runner-up but again the only way he wins is
if he somehow gets both don and sherry to flip on cochrane which again i just don't think was ever
happening now on to survivor co-wrong where we of course have a record three medevacs this season
the first being probably the scariest man of back in survivor history and yeah i can't really
speculate how the season goes this early into the game but as for caleb himself i think he suffers
probably the same fate as like a peter or nick who get taken out for being too arrogant or being in a
guy's alliance i mean that was lily caleb's gaming big brother and while he appeared to change a bit
in survivor i still can't see how a guy like him takes down the likes of aubry michelle and sydney
so i do think caleb is taking out just before the merge or right when the merge starts now for the
second medevac of the season we have neil getting evacuated at the merge and yeah another easy one
here as to what happens and how it changes the course of survivor history as neil and aubry
are the easy targets and probably get the boat split on them and even though neil had the idol
aubrey was always the main target for the majority and unless she pulls off some voodoo magic which
to be fair she pulled that off at the final eight it's almost a guarantee aubry is the merged boot
which again obviously changes the course of this season dramatically and modern survivor history in
general now after this what happens the rest of the season is up in the air you know do
the girls and joe still get on board to blindside the alpha males with aubrey no longer in the game
is neil the next to go after aubry and does his idol spice things up at all again too many
unknowns here but if i had to pick a placement for neil i think he's in one of those odd spots
where he's always a target or an easy vote but other threats will be taken out before him kind
of like karishma for example and that's ultimately the trajectory i have for him you know around the
eighth place finish now for the third medevac of the season another one that dramatically changes
survivor history joe's medevac at the final five and i think we all know the story here but for
those of you that forgot aubrey joe and cindy had a final three deal at this point with michelle
the target for the trio and obviously the only way michelle could save herself was within a mewni win
but more than likely the final five immunity challenge would have been the final four reward
challenge which aubrey won which means michelle goes home at five and at that point i think aubrey
is pretty much guaranteed to win as either that trio gets to the final three or if ty does win
immunity joe is never flipping on aubrey and we literally saw aubry beat cindy in fire so yeah
joe eating too much meat literally cost aubry a million dollars you know so that's a thing
now on to season 37 where pat has medevaced in the premiere and the common thought here is that this
changed the season and survivor history as nick was shown on tv as the easy first boot for the
davids however that was just the narrative put on by the show to give nick a great story arc for the
season as he wasn't the only name on the chopping block pat himself was on the chopping block for
his boss-like behavior and lyrica apparently was also a target for being the weakest and for what
i've seen it was definitely between her and nick however we still don't have a clear answer to this
day as to who goes on first but for me personally i mean we saw what a great player nick was i think
he would have realized he was in trouble and got people like christian and davey on board to save
him with lyrical ultimately being the first boot now as for pat specifically i think he's probably
a pre-merged boot whether he's now an outsider on the david's or an easy minority boot at the swap
as i just don't see his personality type making it very far in modern survivor and finally we
have jackson to finish us off now obviously i can't predict how much this changes the
season considering the season's still going the only thing we know for sure is that vati would
have also sent someone home in episode 1 as taku would have won the challenge and i'm assuming 42
would have been a double boot premiere like 41 and in that case taku enters the merge
with five members eco of four and bhati with three as for jackson i still stand by he goes
home around the seven to eight range as that's where i had him in my preseason power rankings
and yeah i would have loved to see what kind of character he was this season but sadly it wasn't
meant to be but at least he holds the record for earliest medal back in survivor so at least that's
something so there you have it guys my predictions of every scenario if a medevac survivor player had
not been meta-backed obviously a lot of these were hard to speculate but i truly do think evacuations
like joe russell and scoopin really do change the course of survivor history dramatically and like
i said i did kind of rush this video even though i have been thinking about this video for some time
i didn't exactly do any deep digging so if you guys have any different speculations
