Survivor: Winners at War is bringing the heat week in and week out.
This week’s tribal was insane and it’s likely a sign of things to come. We’ll get to that in a minute, but first let’s take a look at who was voted off and where the votes went.
Survivor: Winners at War Episode 10 Recap
Who Got Voted Off: Tyson Apostol
Votes: Sarah* (Tyson), Ben (Tyson), Tony (Tyson), Nick (Tyson), Michele (Tyson), Kim (Sophie), Tyson (Sophie), Sarah* (Denise*) and Sophie (Denise*)
Episode 10 of Survivor: Winners at War started off with the loved ones visit, but this season things were a bit different. Instead of just one loved one visiting the island, the entire family was invited for this special season.
Another twist was that there was no loved ones challenge. Everyone’s family was able to come back to camp, which gave the players a chance to take a break from strategizing and playing the game.
Not only that, but the players on the Edge of Extinction (EoE) received family visits too!
Survivor: Winners at War – Episode 10 RECAP
Despite the slow start with the family visits, things picked up at the half-hour mark of the episode.
The “Got a Hunch” immunity challenge was won by Tony. Can you believe this was the first challenge won by Tony? Of all challenges for Tony to win, it was a challenge of patience!

Tony received two fire tokens for the immunity challenge victory.
Heading back to camp, Tony was able to calmly talk game with everyone because of his safety.
Tony the Tiger
Initially, Jeremy wanted to target Sarah/Sophie, while Sarah wanted to target Kim, but Tony wasn’t liking either option. Afterwards, the guys discussed blindsiding Jeremy at Tribal.
By the time the players were leaving for Tribal, it looked like Jeremy was going to be the vote.
That’s where things got exciting. Jeremy decided to use his “safety without power” advantage, which meant he was safe, but that he also wouldn’t get to cast a vote.
Tribal Got Loud
Once Jeremy left Tribal, there was a mad scramble, but Sophie was able to get herself, Sarah, Tony, Ben and Nick to make a decision. Prior to voting, Sarah used her “steal a vote” advantage.
Sarah took Denise’s vote, which meant Denise wouldn’t get to vote and Sarah would receive two votes. * That’s why Sarah has two votes listed at the top of the article.
Once the votes were in, Kim decided to use her hidden immunity idol. She chose to save Denise, as she probably thought that’s where most votes were going since Sarah stole her vote.
However, Tyson was the player with the most votes and he ended up being sent back to the EoE.
Fall From Grace?
Kim made a huge move, but it didn’t pay off and could have lasting consequences.
Kim, Tyson, Jeremy and Denise were getting closer and forming an alliance. If Kim would have saved Tyson, Denise/Sophie both would have had two votes and things could have went differently.
As it stands, Kim is now without her hidden idol and it didn’t even make an impact.
Since Kim used her idol on Denise, the two votes for Denise didn’t count.
Survivor: Winners at War Episode 11 Predictions
In the episode 11 promo video, Kim claims Tony is a double-agent. It also looks like Tony tries to mess with the rest of the players by spreading misinformation at camp.
I’m not sure what I think about that. Tony hasn’t received a single vote, he’s seemingly at the top of this season’s biggest alliance and he’s coming off his first immunity challenge win.
Why rock the boat at camp with nine players left when you’re sitting so pretty? Will it cost him?
My two picks (Sarah/Sophie) had another great week. Sophie isn’t going to be able to stay under the radar much longer. As you seen last week, Kim was gunning to send her to the EoE.
Betting On Survivor: Winners at War
Could we see some cop vs. cop action soon as well?
Tony likely notices how close Sarah/Sophie/Ben are and that is likely why he has decided to try and shake things up at camp this week.
Tony and Sarah have been disagreeing lately as well, which could be setting us up for a blow-up.
I’d like to see Jeremy or Tony targeted this week, but who knows what’s going to happen. Like every week, winning immunity is important, especially as the numbers at camp continue to dwindle.
It’ll be interesting to see if Sophie wants to target Kim as well. Kim drew a line in the sand at the last Tribal and I’m sure Sophie will be working overtime behind the scenes to deal with her.
Survivor: Winners at War Fire Tokens / Advantages Update
I haven’t updated the status of who has what in a few weeks now. With multiple advantages being played at the last Tribal, I wanted to update our readers on fire tokens and advantages.
Let’s start with the players still in the Survivor: Winners at War
Tony – 3 Fire Tokens
Denise – 3 Fire Tokens
Nick – 3 Fire Tokens
Sophie – 2 Fire Tokens + 1 Immunity Idol
Kim – 2 Fire Tokens + 1 50/50 Coin
Jeremy – 2 Fire Tokens
Sarah – 1 Fire Token
Ben – 1 Fire Token
Michele – 0 Fire Tokens
Out of the players still in the game, Sophie is in the best position. Not only does she have two fire tokens, but she also has the lone hidden immunity idol still in the game.
Here’s an update on the advantages on the EoE:
Parvati – 4 Fire Tokens
Rob – 1 Immunity Idol
Natalie – 1 Immunity Idol
No other players have fire tokens or an advantage on the EoE.
Jeff Probst recently clarified that Rob and Natalie’s immunity idols are still valid. However, they also get the idol if they earn a spot back into the game during the next EoE return-back challenge.
