Koh-Lanta[]

Nicolas and Helena Roosen were the male and female winners of the opening challenge, with the former being the overall winner and becoming the initial possessor of the Sacred Fire Totem as a reward. In consequence, they became the captains of the Paniman and Tinago tribes, respectively, and got to pick their tribemates. Nicolas was a good leader and positioned himself well socially on his tribe, bonding the most with Gilles De Baere. Though they lost the first Immunity Challenge, the Paniman tribe won the following two Immunity Challenges, keeping its members safe for those two cycles. At the Final Sixteen, a tribe switch took place and Nicolas was assigned by Rudy Noël to be a member of the second Paniman tribe. With the second Paniman tribe consisting of five original Paniman tribe members and three original Tinago tribe members, Nicolas found himself in a comfortable majority for the remainder of the tribal phase.

After the tribes merged, Gilles and Laura Yelpa led a majority alliance of second Paniman tribe members that began pagonging the second Tinago tribe members, but in secret, Gilles and Nicolas also had a Final Four deal with Frédéric Khouvilay and Quentin Paygnard and the latter two voted in the minority with full knowledge of this long-term plan. At the Final Nine, Quentin selected Gilles to face him in the final of the second individual Reward Challenge, but Gilles decided to share his reward with Nicolas after he won it. While this pair were enjoying their reward and Frédéric and Quentin were doing camp chores together, the women of the tribe began realizing that Gilles had made a lot of endgame deals with people. Thus, an alliance between the four women and Esteban Garcia-Mora emerged and, after Gilles failed to win the third individual Immunity Challenge, they blindsided him at the corresponding Tribal Council.

Though Nicolas and his allies suddenly found themselves in the minority, things shook up again at the Final Eight as the Tied Destinies twist took place which, due to the equal number of men and women among them, forced each of the women to be paired with a man. The pairings were Tania Cakarevic and Frédéric, Julie Debever and Nicolas, Esteban and Clémence Noquet, and Quentin and Laura, with Tania and Frédéric winning the corresponding individual Immunity Challenge. In terms of planning for Tribal Council, the minority alliance of Frédéric, Quentin, and Nicolas evidently felt that their best move would be to target the pair of Esteban and Clémence and, out of self-preservation, their partners got on board with that save for Laura, who was willing to sacrifice Julie in order to keep Clémence around. At Tribal Council, Quentin joined Esteban, Clémence, and Laura in voting against Nicolas in order to feign loyalty to his partner, but Julie had an Extra Vote and Nicolas had a Black Vote which they used to help vote out Esteban, causing Clémence's exit as well due to the Tied Destinies twist.

A couple of cycles later, Laura was voted out near-unanimously mostly for her threat status as the endgame approached. With the three men regaining control in the tribe, they planned to vote out Julie at the Final Five as there was a notion that Tania had a Hidden Immunity Necklace and would be playing it since it would be her last opportunity to do so at the corresponding Tribal Council. In response, Julie borrowed Tania's Hidden Immunity Necklace and showed it to Quentin in an attempt to get the alliance's votes off of her and onto Tania. At Tribal Council, Julie's plan worked as the men voted against Tania, Tania played her Hidden Immunity Necklace for herself and nullified all votes cast against her, and Quentin was "idoled out" thanks to the two votes cast against him by the women.

Having made it to the finale, Nicolas was eliminated at the Final Three after Frédéric won the Perch challenge and took Tania to the Final Two instead of him.
