Twists/Differences

 * Alias: In this game, nobody used their real name, allowing community players who may have known each other to play like newbies again.
 * Expansion Swap: The game moved from two tribes to three at Final 15.
 * Super Idol Halves: In the first reward challenge, two players were gifted half of a super idol, which they would have to combine to have any power.
 * Redemption Island: Players voted out before the merge competed in duels to return to the game.
 * Invisible Round: A twist in which the votes and immunity winner are not revealed, only the person who goes home.
 * Legacy Advantage: This season's legacy advantage was a conference with the jury before Final Tribal Council.

Description
Eighteen community members competed under alias names. Susan came in extremely strong on the Nera tribe, and was swiftly unanimously eliminated for being too much of a personality. Kudos to Matt for creating such a convincing character. It was revealed that this season would feature a Redemption Island Twist in the form of duels. In the second round, Frank was eliminated for not being active enough in the game, though he would then go on to compete strongly on RI. In the next round, the elimination was once again based on activity, and Gregg was sent home.

Then came the swap, an expansion which introduced the Vathis tribe in addition to the old Nera and Plati tribes. Plati went to the first post-swap tribal council, where Elle wanted to go OG tribe strong. Fae, however, wanted to flip because they did not see a long-term benefit to this plan, voting out Maxyne because they were worried about idols. The next round, there was a Double Tribal Council Twist after a hero challenge, which Elle won for Plati. On Nera, Tristin was eliminated; on Vathis, the vote was largely determined by the flow of information. Eliza and Dusty had two halves of a Super Idol, which they received from Franco and Erick, respectively. Eliza was in the middle because, like her player, had alliances with both sides. Ultimately, she chose to vote with Michele and Worm to target Erick because of the Super Idol tying them together. By this point, that entire tribe knew about the Super Idol, which

In arguably the most emotional tribal of the season, Plati lost the next round. All four on the tribe were close, and Elle had won the hero challenge for them, establishing her as a challenge threat. Though she was targeted, she was able to use her social game to flip Rain and Lenny by throwing Fae under the bus based on their previous alliances. Fae was ultimately eliminated in a dramatic tribal. This situation was a major display of Elle's social game, as Fae went home with an idol in their pocket.

At the merge, Frank returned to the game. After Eliza won immunity, Van made arguably the most notorious mistake in Survivor Stings history by unintentionally sending his vote for Franco to the tribe chat. This exposed his alliance's plans for a game-shifting blindside and threw the game into chaos, with one faction targeting Van for blowing things up and the other turning their attention to Eliza, after Eliza made another confusing (albeit effective) decision by giving her immunity to Franco. After one of the most chaotic rounds Jay has ever seen, Van was ultimately eliminated. In the next round, Elle was removed during the overnight challenge.

After touchy subjects, it became clear that the final ten vote would be a complex one. Eliza formed an alliance with herself, Franco, Worm, and Rain, trying to target Cranjes. They decided to split the vote 4-3-2-1 both for drama and to avoid idol complications. This foresight worked in their favor, because Cranjes was eliminated and Frank played an idol, flushing it. Since nothing could be easy in this season, the next vote was also a complicated one. During an Invisible Round Twist, Franco played an idol for himself. The vote tied between Eliza and Frank, and Eliza was eliminated in the revote.

Michele won a reward which gave her the information from the invisible round, including the votes and immunity winner. Then, in yet another complicated tribal council, Sasha was eliminated in a Rock Draw after a tie between Michele and Frank.

The next vote was the first unanimous one of the season, with Franco eliminated for being a major threat. Then, there was a power struggle over whether or not to eliminate Frank, who had survivor against all odds after playing from the bottom. Ultimately, Rain's underdogs alliance of themself, Michele, and Worm prevailed, leaading to Frank's elimination, then Lenny's. At the final four, the tight group stayed strong and eliminated Dusty, sending the three of them to the final three.

Rain revealed at FTC that they had, in fact, been the person to send Eliza home; this revelation put them over-the-top to win the game.
