The Most Iconic Alliances in Survivor History

The greatest alliances of all time.

according to both parvati and ozzy, amanda actually knew that ozzy was leaving and was acting throughout that entire tribal. she was the good cop to parvati's bad cop, and parvati was actually shocked that amanda didnt bring that up in the final tribal council (however im assuming that amanda thought that she would lose votes if she did).

Aitu 4 is my absolute favorite of all time. Though Black Widow Brigade have more entertainment and strategic value, Aitu just has the heart and satisfying ending I love more.

[Siansonea]

Just reminding me why Parvati and Cirie are always going to be among my favorite players of all time.

Aitu 4 basically single-handedly got me interested in Survivor. They were magical and wonderful. And Yul is one of the best players of all time and his final tribal council was perfection and also basically invented modern final tribal.

Great video! I would have loved to see Malcolm and Denise’s relationship. It was the best comeback in survivor history and you would never have expected the two to get along so well!

Season 40 cops r us is about as good as it gets for me. So personal and touching to see Tony so emotional, you can tell how much they care for eachother. Not to mention how hilarious they are together. The recon missions are second to none

[KingsNerdCave]

Aitu 4 have to be my favorite. 4 genuinely good people who get completely screwed only to bounce back and become the final 4. Ozzy's skills and Yul's brains made them so great to watch.
Also, though a lot don't care for it, I'm a big fan of The Cult of Rob from Redemption Island. I just think it's crazy to watch Rob have absolute control finding the immunity idol, owning crazy Philip's vote, and all the younglings bound to him willing to follow him. He promised them final 6 and got them that. Doesn't make for the most exciting season, but it makes for a mighty alliance and a near guaranteed win for the one pulling the strings.

The Black Widow Brigade would always be my favourite alliance at stirring up chaos and pulling off some iconic moves. Following closely as my second alliance is the AITU 4 because of their strong underdog story.

[elijahpotbelly]

The Salem Witchs of second chance are my favorite. Such baddies and cemented Kelley Wentworth into survivor history of most blocked votes via immunity idol

[kenyadakashai]

Aitu 4 is why i love Survivor. I rewatch the season constantly. It’s so satisfying to see it all play out.

[meteorrejector]

gretchen saying “oh my god… oh my god, it’s me” at her elimination gives me chills, such an important moment in tv history and she’s so genuinely taken aback

[permafrost]

Was fully expecting the electric, dynamic, and captivatingly iconic alliance of fan favourites Sierra Dawn-Thomas and Brad Culpepper from everyone’s fave season Game Changers to be number one on this list

[LeighWHeard]

The Aitu Four have a story that nobody could make up. So much could have gone wrong for them, but thankfully it didn't. Yul's trick in the Depth Charge challenge got them the first immunity challenge win and they weren't going to lose the Pacific Islands challenge with Ozzy in their tribe. Although, the final four fire making challenge between Becky and Sundra is a bit of a weird way for their alliance to end.

[iandouglas]

I loved the BostonRob-Parvati alliance in Winner at War, I really think that they formed a genuine bond

[Quatrixjs]

The Foa Foa comeback was absolutely insane

[bodaciousconar]

I feel like some honorable mentions are; Earl and Yauman (Fiji), The Villains merge (HvV), Rupert, Christ, and Sandra (Pearl Islands), Kenny, sugar, Marty, Susie, and Crystal (Gabon). My favorite is definitely the Gabon alliance. I mainly loved watching Kenny grow from a kid into a man. Even if his game is respected much, his story is underrated. He strategically masterminded an alliance of 5 from the tribe swap to the final 6. People just saw him as a nerdy naive college kid, but he proved them wrong.

[anjunxis]

the black widow brigade will always be my favorites, and micronesia will always be my favorite season bc of them. no other alliance is able to bring that much entertainment while also being strategic geniuses

[adopted_connor]

My favorite honorable mentions:
Mason-Dixon Alliance
Stealth-R-Us
Coach’s Cult
Malcom & Denise
The Ride Or Die Alliance (S43)

[alexbayarsaikhan]

The Aitu 4 is the best and truly incredible. I love watching it again and again.

[icecreamchick]

A recent alliance I am a huge fan of is Shan and Ricard. Something about an alliance that is so very ride-or-die only to end with heartbreak and betrayl is very fun to me
