Sandra Diaz-Twine Heroes vs. Villains
Diaz-Twine was one of four previous winners chosen for Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains. She was assigned to the Villains tribe, and in the first episode, she purposefully ripped the top off Hero Jessica “Sugar” Kiper. When the Villains faced their first Tribal Council in Episode Three, Diaz-Twine stuck to her strategy of “anyone, as long as it ain’t me.” Despite appearing to be in a comfortable six-person alliance, she found herself on the outs with her tribe alongside Courtney Yates of Survivor: China by Episode Eight. Despite several attempts to remove Hantz, she remained with the Villains after her plans to assist the Heroes fell through.
She advanced to the Final Three alongside Shallow and Hantz, and won the game with six jury votes from Yates, Heroes tribe members Thomas, Amanda Kimmel, Candice Woodcock, Boneham, and Cole Donaldson, compared to Shallow’s three and Hantz’s zero. She became the first contestant to win Survivor twice and proclaimed herself the “Queen”.
Sandra Diaz-Twine Survivor
Despite the fact that Diaz-Twine lacked physical strength and was unable to swim, she quickly earned the respect of the majority of her tribe thanks to her ability to communicate in Spanish and her resourcefulness, which assisted their tribe Drake in acquiring much-needed resources from local traders at the beginning of the game. She eventually joined forces with Christa Hastie, Trish Dunn, Jonny Fairplay, and Rupert Boneham to form an alliance.
Diaz-Twine was the main individual to sit out of a test and the first to strike on Morgan’s camp as a feature of the prize, where she took their canvas, yet undermined their safe house. At the point when Drake lost the fourth and fifth resistance challenges, the collusion removed the minority union’s Burton Roberts and Michelle Tesauro. Shawn Cohen, who had been Drake’s target, was spared when Diaz-Twine turned the alliance against Dunn for attempting to blindside Boneham after Drake lost the sixth immunity challenge.
In a twist known as the “Outcast Twist,” six contestants who had previously been voted out of the game returned to the game as a third tribe even though the Drake and Morgan tribes only had five members each. Two of the Outcasts were permitted to return to the game after the tribe of Outcasts defeated the Drake and Morgan tribes and won the immunity challenge. Drake and Morgan had to vote out a tribe member at the same time. Diaz-Twine, Boneham, and Hastie asked them to publicly campaign for their position in a pivotal move. They were unsure whether to send Cohen, the last minority alliance member left, home or Fairplay, who had previously betrayed them along with Dunn, so they asked them to do so. Cohen was eventually removed from the alliance, and The Outcasts provided Roberts as a replacement.
With the assistance of outcast Roberts, the Drake tribe was able to persuade Morgan outcast Lillian “Lil” Morris to vote with them as the tribes merged into Balboa at a score of 5–5. This allowed the Drake tribe to control the game and vote out Morgan leaders Andrew Savage and Ryan Opray. However, when former Drake members Fairplay and Roberts joined Morris and recruited the remaining Morgan members Tijuana “Ti” Bradley and Darrah Johnson, the game underwent a significant shift. Boneham was caught off guard when this new alliance successfully targeted him.
Diaz-Twine swayed Bradley and Johnson by spying on Roberts and Fairplay to expose their intentions to eliminate the Morgan girls after getting rid of Diaz-Twine and Hastie, despite the fact that this newly formed alliance appeared to be doomed to failure at the Final Seven. With the assistance of Dalton’s well-known “dead grandmother” lie, Roberts and Fairplay regained Diaz-Twine and Hastie’s trust and were able to successfully deceive Tijuana when they learned of the impending mutiny. They were betrayed once more shortly thereafter when Roberts and Dalton switched sides and Hastie was voted out.
At the Last Five, Johnson was the following objective of Roberts and Fairplay, however Morris began to have some unavoidably strong inclinations about her partnership (which would validate in the long run). Roberts invited Dalton on his reward trip, which left the three women, including an enraged Morris, together back at camp. This sparked a last-minute effort to break the two men’s bond, and Morris ultimately voted out Roberts for the second time in the game.
Diaz-Twine was no longer a target after reaching the Final Four; instead, Morris and Johnson focused on each other because they both believed that Diaz-Twine could defeat anyone in the Final Two. Diaz-Twine and Fairplay advanced to the Final Three by voting out Johnson and siding with Morris. Morris won the Final Three endurance immunity challenge and made the decision to eliminate Fairplay, which resulted in Diaz-Twine’s victory.
Diaz-Twine ultimately defeated Morris, winning by a vote of 6–1 to become the Sole Survivor, despite having previously stated that no one could ever defeat Morris because she was too nice. Diaz-Twine said in her final Tribal Council remarks that her plan was the one people would turn to if they needed one more vote to get rid of someone (“anyone, as long as it ain’t me”). Opray, Boneham, Hastie, Roberts, Johnson, and Fairplay all gave her their support. Morris was supported only by Bradley.
