Honestly one of my favorite low key moments was rob telling Michelle her win was valid. I can’t imagine the stress she must have went through from all the hate. And to here from one of the most well known and popular contestants of all time that you did good has got to be a weight lifted off her shoulders

[@antmsurvivorpokemon1]

Rob wishes he can play half as well as her, she does not need his opinions whether her win was valid or not because he himself failed 3 times, he should be the last person giving advice.

[@paigecohen9232]

I agree completely!!! I’m so glad he said that to her because in my eyes she deserved her win and I think it was good to hear that from somebody. Her game play is immensely underrated and the fact that one of the most iconic survivor players told her she deserved her win probably helped her see that more.

[@tmm4195]

@@antmsurvivorpokemon1 He wasn't really giving advice. Just reassuring Michelle that she earned the win she got, which she needed to hear. Rob probably feels for her because his wife Amber went through the same backlash.

She’s actually now the only player in the history of Survivor to play more than once and to never be voted out or leave early.

[@harryhealey4298]

Andor that’s impressive considering she was on the bottom for most of the game. I didn’t think I’d root for Michele so much but she quickly became the one I wanted to win. I knew Tony would win but I really wanted Michele to win and prove everyone who doubted her win wrong.

[@User42959]

not that impressive she was brought too the end as a goat both times and there's never a reason to target her, nobody finds her threatening

[@harryhealey4298]

Jacob Soto that’s your opinion, I don’t see her as a goat this season. She was more threatening then Ben and Denise ever were. She wasn’t brought by Natalie because she was easy to beat either. Natalie just wanted the significance of the end of Cops R Us, that’s why Michele didn’t go against Tony in fire. You see her as a goat this season and whilst I don’t remember what she did last season, I was rooting for her the entire time this season. Because she played much better than people expected from her.

[@tokyotourist]

Michele is the dark horse winner of survivor. when she is backed into a corner she pulls it out like no other. she was blindsided but was also part of some blindsides too. she's the only returning winner to never have been voted out

Crazy to think someone like Michele went to FTC twice.

Kevin Dragneel not really

[@a.jdeets5527]

Kevin Dragneel Crazy thing is Michele could totally make it to the end again because of how underestimated she is.

[@bangaliekanu5852]

Kevin Dragneel Shes only played twice. Amanda, Sandra, and Russell did that too so it’s not like a returning player not being voted out is such a rare feat especially in a season in all winners where’s there’s tons of people who only played once so it’s way likelier

[@coqui9879]

She’s the only *survivor* who has played multiple times that has never been eliminated (You have to say eliminated because if you just say voted out technically Jenna Morasca [who is also a winner], Colton [yikes], and Skupin [YIKES] also have that record)

Johnny Newport I agree, even tony says so hehe

[@commentingperson9554]

Nah, Tony deserved a unanimous vote so he could not only be double winner but also get the "perfect game"

[@stefanstenroos6344]

Michele would have won with her strategy in any other season. Fly under the radar, make big moves happen, take out the lions when the time is right. The only problem was Tony was two steps ahead at all times. Michele played a great game, no doubt about it. Tony just played the best game ever. I respect them both.

[@clay7212]

Agree entirely. In Michelle's post finale interview she stated she went into the final tribal council fully believing it was going to be her making fire, as she wanted to take the last chance to make a big move. She was upset when Natalie changed her mind and chose her she said, and tbh I think michelle wins the game had she been able to take Tony out over fire. 🔥 Taking him out was a necessity for either nat or michelle to pull it off.

[@stefanstenroos6344]

@@clay7212 I agree as well. I do understand Natalie's reason to put Sarah against Tony, but it's a Catch 22: whoever beats Tony wins the game, and Tony wins the game if he wins at fire. Which makes Natalie's reluctance to go against Tony even more puzzling. Natalie also bugged out and burned her idol for no reason, something I didn't think she would do. Like Rob said, she would have won if she played the perfect game. That would have required putting some effort into removing Tony. Never happened. Every day I think Michele would have deserved those four votes over Nat.

[@clay7212]

@@stefanstenroos6344 and Nat has stated as well she only has one real regret from her game and it's the fire decision, she acknowledged it's going to take a great deal of time to come to terms with that decision looking back on it. Part of me feels she wasn't confident enough in her fire making ability or else she would have stepped up, based on the way she plays and her beast mentality. However not letting michelle take the shot at least who seemed to be doing well with fire and having cops r us have an emotional crying session in front of the jury 🙃😅 completely agree, regardless of no prize for second place I thoroughly believe michelle earned the title of runner up to Tony.

No I see it as being on the wrong side of every single vote, and pretty much everyone voted out this eason gave their tokens so someone who was out of the loop, and Michelle just so happened to play a terrible game and never know what was happening around her.

[@funkycrawler619]

@@rambo8550 Being out of the loop doesn't equal terrible game. I think Sophie said it best: Michele had to play the game that was setforth by Tony. She played a great game for the position she was in, but at the end she was up against two of her biggest competitors. It should also be noted she knew who had to go but her allies were too blinded to do so cough Nick/Jeremy cough.

[@a.jdeets5527]

Michele played the exact same game she played last time and people finally respect her? I’ve been a Michele fan since the pre season cast reveal of Kaoh Rong and I couldn’t be more proud of her.

[@SurvivorLegend68]

Tbh, the first time through watching koah rong I didn’t give her much credit, but after the rewatch and this season, I realized she was a solid player

[@ninamancuso8924]

I was so happy when she won Kaoh Rong. She was my favorite on that season, and I loved her just as much this time around. She 100% deserved a few votes.

[@bluesky5384]

I respected her from the jump. Aubrey was deserving but I loved Michele. The two things she did that made me root for her was vote out Julia and then fight for her life in the game against Tai. Her relationship with Cydney was crucial. I think Cydney deserved it even over Aubrey or Michele. Loved all 3.

[@asmodeus58XX]

I didn't disrespect Michele because she played a social game. It's because she attended only six tribals, and in one of the cancelled tribals she could be voted out, so she was extremely lucky. She needed no such luck this season. That being said, with all the chaos of that season, she was still a bit underwhelming.

[@jakebutts1775]

Deserves every ounce of credit for how she played. She was not flashy but she played hard. Watching this makes me realize how hard she worked all season to try and be on the right side of the numbers. I feel like sometimes it just doesn’t work out and people just don’t want to work with you. Anyone who calls her a goat is just wrong. I was honestly just so happy to see her beat 3 of the 4 people in that godawful alliance that almost made this season unbearable to watch. Anywho, it all worked out well in my opinion. Tony deserved the win, Natalie came back from Edge and put up a fight, and Michele proved her haters wrong. All in all, a great season. #TeamMichele

[@rambo8550]

Don't you realize that always being on the bottom is indicative of a bad social game? She as completely clueless, half the time she didn't even know what was going on in the game. Hell she didn't even know her ally Jeremy was staying at the final 8. Only people playing bad games are always left out of the loop. Saying people didn't want to play with her is crap. It's her job to play a good social game. besides, isn't that supposed to be the one thing she's god at in survivor? I swear...

[@jakebutts1775]

@Will Rambo it really isn’t that deep homie. All I said was I thought she worked hard (which she did) and I didn’t like the 4 person alliance during the game. That’s it. There are multiple ways to play and analyze the game. I thought she was good. You didn’t. Point blank. Done. End of discussion.

[@rambo8550]

@@jakebutts1775 Objectively she made countless mistakes. Throughout the merge, her social game wasn't strong enough to create the right alliances to keep her in the loop. She was also objectively saved by the objectively flawed twist the edge, where she was handed an ally with an idol by no doing of her own. That is called luck. I enjoyed her on this season, but she objectively did a lot of things wrong.

[@jakebutts1775]

@Will Rambo I see your point. But OBJECTIVELY I don’t think your opinion is the only right opinion. Let’s say we take out the edge twist. Michele wins immunity at final 6, Nick’s voted out. Let’s scratch Natalie coming back. Michele still wins that next challenge which would have moved her to final 4. At that point it’s every man/woman for themselves. Tony won the next challenge with the bag toss thing when there were 5 including Natalie but if they would have done the same final 4 challenge that they showed in the episode and if we take out Natalie, Michele wins because she came in second to Natalie, moving her to the final 3. Yes if they would have used the bag toss challenge that Tony won for final 4 instead with Tony, Sarah, Ben, and Michele, then Michele goes up against Ben in fire and ultimately loses. But who knows, Sarah might have tried to pull in Ben so they could turn on Tony in final 5 regardless if Natalie was there or not. But we have no idea what would have happened or how they would have laid out the challenges if the Edge didn’t exist. Did Michele get lucky that Natalie returned? Yes. Do I still think Michele could have possibly made it to final 3 without Natalie? Yes. So, as I said before, there are multiple ways to play, watch, and analyze the game. I basically root for the underdog in every season because that’s the style of play I like, which is why I liked Michele and how she played. She never lied or backstabbed a single person and people basically refused to work with her. I just don’t prefer Tony or Sarah’s style of play and you obviously do. So, OBJECTIVELY, please understand that there are multiple opinions on how the game can be played, and won.

[@stephenbeatty8657]

In my opinion. One of the best players of all time. Socially amazing. Wins challenges. I could see her making Final 3 every time she plays.

One of my favourite things about her this season was that at a certain point into the game she knew she was such an underdog that she took the attitude of just wanting to cause some chaos and shake things up. Plus she had some pretty amusing confessionals. And the woman is absolutely clutch at challenges, she pulls it out when she really needs it

[@jaredshinn5840]

The biggest dark horse in survivor history. The character development she had on the last 3 hour special went from “how is she still here” to “how’d she get no votes” is crazy.

[@ajl9772]

Michelle had a good plan, but Nick blew it. Had Nick made the logical move, he would have flipped his vote at final 7 and blindsided Ben. Him and Michelle could have pretty much dictated the rest of the game.

[@cameronwoolard6011]

I really am sad that she didn’t get any votes when in my opinion she consistently embodies what survivor is... it’s not always being a cult leader... it’s staying true to your self and sticking with what you got every round and fighting tooth and nail to keep yourself alive.... I understand Tony’s win but it’s so hard to support him in a finale when you get to see half of his alliance literally have no brain of their own

[@susanschoover1577]

Especially when much of them were pregame alliances.

[@rambo8550]

Wait so it's about purposefully playing poorly, putting yourself in the minority, voting all of your allies out, and having to rely on a flawed twist(the edge of extinction returnee) to keep you as a goat until the finale? ah yes, good gameplay.

[@cameronwoolard6011]

Will Rambo no it’s about using your ability to form relationships to stay alive... you clearly have no value for social skills in survivor and that’s really all this comes down to... people who notice the social gameplay of survivor can tell michele literally is one of the best as she is able to keep herself alive in both of her seasons solely off of connections and building trust through her actions

[@rambo8550]

@@cameronwoolard6011 You're right, sometimes in survivor building relationships is all it takes, but if that's all you can do, you're not a great player. A great player can build relationships and then use them to enact strategies of their choosing, that's what Tony did this season. Also, Michelle relies a lot on luck in survivor. Last time, it was the Joe medivac that saved her from being eliminated in fifth after Aubrey won immunity. This time, the edge twist saved her. She got very very lucky Natalie came back with an idol, she didn't plan for that to happen. Without edge, Michelle comes in 5th once again. Also, a good social player in survivor can make the jury respect them despite how they played, which she successfully did last time, but not this time (she got roasted in some of the jury speaks videos). I have a lot of value in social skills in survivor, which is why I think Russell is a bad player. But where did her social skills come into play this season? She was targeted a lot, and relied on immunity wins to be safe, which are yet another luck based thing. What if the card challenge was a more physical challenge? She comes in 7th, that's what. What if the tower challenge had a different puzzle that didn't cater to her skills instead of a puzzle she already knows? She comes in 6th. Michelle was completely clueless throughout the post merge, which is demonstrated by her constantly building the wrong alliances, and then *NOT BEING A GOOD ENOUGH PLAYER* to keep her allies in the game.

Only towards the end was she the true underdog where she couldn’t sway anyone.

[@jorgegutierrez1035]

B Cars In a way Michele also controlled the premerge with the Ethan blindside, Nick and Michele were the ones that could have voted out Wendell but instead blindsided Yul, she still had Parvati's trust when they voted her out and could have betrayed her, she definitely played the game very well. The only bad thing was she could've taken out Tony earlier when Nick won immunity because he hadn't use his idol in that vote, Nick, Jeremy and Michele could have blindsided him. That's what I think she should have done to have a chance but overall the final three should have deserve their spots because they all took different paths to get there. Oh and also she could have explained what she did in the premerge to them to maybe earn a couple of votes.

Michelle is a great player. She is the only player who has played twice or more who never got her torch snuffed. Like her or not, there would always be hater and I’m used to it. Say whatever you want about Michelle, I still think she is one of the best and I’ve been rooting for her since Kaoh Rong. She wasn’t carried to the end in both times she played and she made it to the end twice being such a contender. Indeed my all time favourite player after Sandra.

[@SurvivorLegend68]

Actually Michael skupin never got voted out

[@coqui9879]

Survivor Legend 68 and neither did Jenna Morasca or Colton, but they were all eliminated at one point for various reasons. Michele is the only survivor contestant to never be eliminated, and one of 4 to make it all the way to the end on her first 2 tries (as well as Amanda Kimmel, Russell Hantz, and Sandra)

[@rambo8550]

Why is she one of the best? Where does she excel in survivor? I'm genuinely curious as a Michele disliker why some people think she's a good player. Physical game: not bad, wins sometimes, not great at obstacle courses, but good at puzzles. Strategic: None. Never able to utilize bonds to make things happen(and I don't mean big movez). Constantly clueless to the strategy happening around her. Lets her allies get voted out one by one.Relies a lot on luck to have any chance (can elaborate if necessary) Social: People *say* it's good, but not any better than most others. Especially this season, she kept making the wrong alliances and could never sway anyone to do what she wanted, not even to do things in their own best interest, and that's saying something. The majority of the jury didn't respect her game (some people talked about it in the jury speaks videos), which is the most indicative thing of a good social game. I will hand it to her that she did that last time, whereas Aubrey did not. However she did rely on a medivac, which was part of her luckiness.

[@KoreanwithNaz]

Will Rambo you know that the video was taken during final 4 right? And also, not MAJORITY only like 3 players said that. The others praised Michelle and said that she didn’t just being a follower or float around. She worked her ass off against all odds to make it to the final 3

[@rambo8550]

Korean with Naz she put herself in a position to have to work harder. One could say Tony worked hard at the social and strategic part of the game, whereas Michelle failed in those 2 areas and had to rely on luck to get to the end and not get respected by the jury

[@sharp5132]

Michelle probably played the best 3rd place game since the format has changed to a F3. If she sits next to anyone but Tony or Sarah in the final 7 I think she wins. She did everything she needed to make it to the end and was one of the only people willing to take out the power duo of Tony and Sarah. Her only competition would probably be Russell in HvV, however, he had no shot of beating anyone in that cast other than maybe Danielle.

[@kevindragneel285]

Even then, she had a chance agaisnt Sarah. And if Michele won firemaking, she also had a bigger chance tbh. The reality is that all 3 played winning games. Just Tony had the best winning game out of the 3. Michele imo, had the 2nd best in that trio.

[@reddahgamergameshows8024]

Michele definitely played an outstanding game in WAW. As she said if Tony made it to the end he’d win and he did but she had no power or chances to take him out so everyone else basically handed him the win lol.

[@jpbproductions3872]

She definitely proved that she deserved her first win and that is coming from a huge Aubry fan

That Boston Rob and Michelle moment this made me cry ❤️

[@layneschwegel5774]

I’m so proud that she was able to eliminate the controversy from her win! She’s one of the most masterful low key strategists and I hope she plays again!

[@jad8123]

Impressive she made it to the finals again. She’s under rated.

[@rcencabo6863]

Michelle is really a great player. She is always at the bottom, she is always on the outs. But she always managed to outlast every single threat that comes to her way. I mean she could have made great moves like Tony but nobody just doesn't want to team up with her which saddens me.

[@rambo8550]

Lets rephrase "no one wants to team up with her" shall we? "She played a bad social game and made the wrong alliances which resulted in her being on the bottom for the entire post merge"

[@rcencabo6863]

@@rambo8550 actually just the fact that no one wants to play with her like for real. She have a good social game with the girls like Parvati at the start, and Natalie in the end. Because they dont see her as a threat and always just a number to them.

[@rambo8550]

@@rcencabo6863 No one saw her as a threat, it wasn't said once. Tony even said she shouldn't have been in the final 6. Also, a good social game is one that is between everyone in the game. Being friends with a few people isn't a good social game. Also, if people don't want to work with you, that's indicative of a bad social game. You could literally make the statement "No one wanted to work with them" about anyone that's ever been voted out of survivor, and guess what, it still won't mean anything, because it's your responsibility to make people want to work with you;

[@SupeRey49]

Michele is a survivor legend after this season tbh

[@aperson22222]

I actually didn't remember who Michelle even was at first, and as it slowly came back to me, I recalled thinking that she was an odd choice. But it saddened me to think that she would so internalize criticism from the peanut gallery. Why should she care what a bunch of Internet trolls say? They can't stop her from spending her money. Rob is right: "When you win, you win. End of story."

[@ellioth9164]

she was really my favorite to watch this season! all the love and respect for her!

[@bluesky5384]

I don’t care what any Aubry stan says..she’s my dark horse winner and is way more relatable for me at least. Michele has the ability to build relationships naturally.

[@baileylynn5562]

Tony definitely deserved to win, but Michele deserved second. The fact that Natalie got votes and Michele didn't get any is a travesty

[@wills3210]

Michelle was really fun to watch this season. I found myself rooting for her most of the season even if I knew she didn’t have a chance to win

[@marvinanonuevo957]

Michelle is a Queen! I think she deserves to win. She is amazing. ❤️❤️❤️ I am a fan already

[@rickyricardo9710]

You missed the absolute badassery of Rob trying to intimidate Michele into admitting she knew something and her not missing a beat and playing dumb

[@crimzlucas]

Michele being the only new school on Survivor that was never voted out

[@AGJ117]

Michele was like Sandra in Heroes vs Villains this season, being right about the biggest threat and people not listening to her and keeping her on the outs.

[@meganhanson1761]

Yul's reaction when Michele and Wendell were having a little spat near him.

[@MrBboyflexibi]

3rd best player this season , prolly behind Sarah & Tony.

Sophie

[@clay7212]

@@a.jdeets5527 imo while sophie played an amazing game this season, she was sent home with an idol in her pocket while michelle went all the way on made it to the very end and won more individual immunities than sophie, while outlasting her entirely in the game.

[@madmaxrerisen]

Sarah might have used tony, but that means nothing. No skill in that.

[@dundermifflinpaperco.6985]

What did Sarah do though? All she did was bring up gender crap which was not the reason at all everyone was saying Tony deserved it. He worked super hard and I think Sarah did barley anything

[@MrBboyflexibi]

Lol Sophie got voted out with an idol in her pocket. That’s as bad as Sandra gameplay this season

[@Super-mr4yn]

personally one of the greats to play the game! amazing strategy without making a huge target for herself and can win comps at crucial times

[@ekorizal1231]

If I can say, I love how she played this game than Tony. Yes, Tony had a more strategic and aggressive game but he didnt have something to prove but Michelle did. She had a good underdog story that peole would easily relate to that. Well, being out of the loop every single vote but you can still got to the final 3 without a strong alliance was cool

[@nasierbrown7206]

Honestly I was one of the people who thought Aubry shouldve won Kaoh Rong but Michele definetly proved herself on Winners at War

[@raymondpavia7824]

I'd love to see michelle play on her 3rd time and win! Legends of survivor Andrea-received the highest votes in survivor history ..a true warrior! Ozzy-challenge beast..physical threat Ruzell huntz- the manipulator..a true villain Stephanie- the only survivor on her tribe in palau.. Parvati-one of the female strongest player Cirie-just a great player Michelle- the only person who played more than once and not get voted out amd manage to the end..

The funny thing is, people say she should have gotten second both times. Perfectly balanced as all things should be.

[@rodethicong]

Feel so sad about Michelle. She deserve at least a vote on the finals. Her play on this season is great! Being out of the numbers everytime and making it to the final 3 is remarkable

[@TheChamp33]

One of the best no vote finalists in Survivor history. The only player to never get voted out playing 2 times without getting injured.

[@brissa1x467]

Her talk with rob have her some clarity, she deserves it

[@mattsmith3994]

I enjoyed watching her play. She earned her spot in the finals. But as she told Lucina...Tony was going to win, if the made the final 3.

[@adamelmes9233]

Super proud of Michele she killed it in a way not a lot of people can.

[@robbierotten2874]

While I still don’t feel she deserved her first win over Aubry, she definitely proved herself this time around. Good player, just gets outplayed by people like Tony in the end

[@kevindragneel285]

Fair to say. To me Aubry, Michele and Cydney played such equal level games. Aubry a little higher. But all 3 deserved it. In WaW the F3 played winner games. But Tony deserved it the most by a long shot. Thats how I view it. She always played agaisnt players and competitors thats for sure.

[@erikabautista7072]

Whether she's a good player or not is debatable but she's such a charismatic, funny person that I found myself rooting for her to get to the end. Would love to see a Michele 3.0, I can see her beating Amanda's 108 consecutive days

Michelle had a strong friendship/alliance coming into the game with Adam. She had to act like she was blindsided on the first vote in order for them to gain intel from both sides of the tribe.
