Lots of candiates for this.

Kelly Wigglesworth gets some criticim for abandoning the allaince and so on but she was always looking to win. Her appraoch was a great one which almost made her the first winner.

Rodger wasn't simply an unassuming pleasant older male. He got Debb/Kimmi to place their votes against Jeff so that Kucha would have to vote him out, and was willing to team up with Amber until Liz stopped the coup occuring. He played up his age.

Ethan had a fantastic social game to the point Lex, Tom and Kim J all would've taken him to the Finals. Not as bad a winner as is claimed.

Paschal had a very good chance of winning Marquesas had he not drawn the purple rock.

Ian was a great player despite his quit, only losing after being massively mindfucked by the show's best winner. Tom himself deserves way more credit also.

Danni played the best game by a woman next to Tina, and is easily in the Top 10 of all time. Rafe was also a great player who got taken up by an even better one in Danni.

Yul's idol didn't affect Cook Islands in how it ended up. Jonathan was always going to flip, and Becky would've forced a tie at the Final 4. He deserves more acclaim.

Contary to common opinion it was Yau Man who had the best chance of winning Fiji in absence of the Final 3. Earl was next most likely and played the best game regardless.

Amanda played the best game in China, only losing her way at the FTC.

Susie was the only person in Gabon who never made any real errors.

There are plently of contestants I could discuss, but these ones stand out.

massive X to all this.

add to that Vecepia, bitch fucking owned the producers' predictability and made sure she was always in with the dominant alliance, her flip flopping was legendary at the time.

Teresa Cooper fucking fought to the death in Africa. and to add to Ethan thing, absolutely NO ONE was willing to betray Ethan post-merge. Kim J. had a sweet shot with the female alliance but she absolutely did not want to turn her back on Ethan, which Teresa understood.

Natalie was the ultimate mastermind in Samoa. She's the reason her entire alliance managed to prevent a pagong situation.

Say what you will about Stepehenie but she owned both seasons she was in she was just beaten by both Rafe and Danni, who were technically better players.

Chris Daughtry, I hate him but looking back, holy shit he survived a pagonging, alone.
