Mercenary

The Mercenary is a twist that was first introduced in Survival of the Fittest. The twist often features players not featured on a season entering the competition to participate in an elimination against players in the game.
==Mercenary History==
===Survival of the Fittest===
The twist was first introduced during Survival of the Fittest. During each stage of the final the disadvantaged player would face a Mercenary to determine their fate in the game. If the players beat the Mercenary they would stay in the game and earn extra Final Points. If the player lost to the Mercenary they were eliminated and unable to complete the final challenge.

===Vendettas===
The Mercenary twist was brought back once again on Vendettas. The elimination nominees would each face a separate Mercenary in the elimination determined by random flip of a coin. If a player is to lose against their Mercenary they will be eliminated from the game, while any player to defeat their Mercenary will rejoin the competition and earn a Grenade.
