[Survivor](https://thelatch.com.au/sandra-diaz-twine-australian-survivor-blood-vs-water-2022/) back in 2010, and featured all-returning players battling it out for the title of Sole Survivor. It really just has some big, inventive gameplay that doesn’t seem to let up, and we have a bunch of twists that land really well.

“Every season we say 'this is the best season ever!' and normally, that's the marketing department, not me,” LaPaglia told POPSUGAR Australia. “But this season, ...

Villains will be villains but host Jonathan LaPaglia explains why a Survivor tribe made a fairly dumb move.

They can rotate people in and out and rest people. But in true villainous style, they decided to go ahead with it and get rid of Anjali,” he told TV Tonight. We’re doing challenges every single day, so it kind of catches up with you.

This includes 10 which has recently premiered Australian Survivor: Heroes v Villians, the first time this format has run in the Australia.

The distances that we had to travel between locations were a problem in Australia, so we don’t have that problem so much this season.” Now it’s much more about the aggressive blindsides, which is great because the game moves at a much faster pace now and it’s much more unpredictable. The game is still the game, and I’m still the host of it. It’s a bit like putting on your favourite shoes, it just kind of feels right. “Most of us who were fans of the show and have been watching this show for a long time, we’ve grown up with it being set in the tropics – so there was less of a need this season to explain the location, like when we shot in the outback. “I love that players inventively interpret the rules and the twists and the advantages that we throw at them and navigate the game in a fresh way. If you don’t have the infrastructure available, it becomes tricky. Australian Survivor: Heros v Villains will also see the return of several former contestants creating a mix of new returning players. Heroes versus Villains is another theme that we’ve chosen that offers a narrative by which to tell the story. “It is the level of inventive gameplay this year – that may be because of the number of returnees that we have. I love that as a host, and as a viewer.” This season is more about the player’s style of gameplay rather than a physical attribute like Brains versus Brawn or past accomplishments like Champions versus Contenders.

Mariana Loizaga recaps all the action from the season premiere of Australian Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains.

Or, as Anjali said, who will be the next pancake to be thrown in the bin? As mentioned earlier, the blindside arrives, as Jonathan gives the tribe the option to either read the votes and lose another person or for the tribe to remain as it is. All in all, it’s not looking good for any returnee nor newbie Anjali, as all of them face being the first Villain to have their torch snuffed. Luckily for Hayley, newbie Rogue Rubin is looking to be a perfect new target as she’s seen trying to one-up everyone on the tribe and even goes as far as asking her tribemate Shaun Hampson, from Champions vs. The challenge isn’t paused even though Jackie’s injury does look serious, and the Heroes start to pull ahead, eventually winning immunity and their second challenge in a row. Shonee is, of course, worried that she will be targeted next in George’s absence, so she sticks with her previous gameplay of having a number one ally who she trusts the most. At the Villains beach, the tribe starts to build their shelter with the help of Simon Mee, who played before in Brains vs. On day 2, the Villains are looking miserable as they haven’t been able to make fire. The architect of Simon’s previous demise, George, is one of those people, as he’s started to create bonds that will help him go further in the game, mainly with Jackie Glazier from Champions vs. That season had it all: an all-star cast; strong challenges as well as twists; an unpredictable boot order; the first-time two-time winner in the Survivor franchise, and most importantly, it had the perfect balance of old-school Survivor while providing fresh and entertaining nuances that paved the way for the franchise to carry on into what became the modern Survivor era. Much like its US predecessor, the first challenge showed how both tribes relied on their respective namesake in how to play the game, at least when it comes to the challenges so far. Villains](https://insidesurvivor.com/best-season-rankings-no-2-heroes-vs-villains-47545) premiered in the US and gave Survivor fans one of the best seasons to date.

all the time. 'I work in the U.S. After Nina explained she was from the U.S. Didn't you say you had a sense of right and wrong?' Sandra raged. How are you so ignorant! Rogue, who is based in Melbourne and the U.S., was born in Cape Town to a Zimbabwean mother and South African father - meaning she is technically African and American - but her background was not explained on the show.
