I'm a bit mixed on this pre merge so far. It hasn't been the most boring pagonging so far, but since the initial merge episode a lot of the talking points have been forced or twist centric. However, Lauren continues to impress. No one noticed/cared that there were only 10 votes at the Desi boot, and she has a powerful advantage because no one knows about it. At the same time, it's not the most overpowered advantage ever. Clearly advantages are here to stay for a while but if they are going to happen, let it be extra votes or vote steals. No legacy advantages or anything else broken like that.

The good news is for those of you rooting for the underdogs (Joe and Mike), final 9 and final 7 have been common points of the game post the Survivor Dark Ages (22-24) to flip the game on its head. What are some of your favorite blindsides from final 7 and 9 recently? There's been a few good ones like Artis in Philippines, LJ and Jefra in Cagayan, Debbie in Kaoh Rong.
