Advantages

An Advantage is an item circulated into the game through a variety of mediums with a specific function that either helps or harms the gameplay of its user. While its dynamics may change in accordance to a season, a standard advantage must be played during a specified time period, but typically before the votes are read at a tribal council.
==Advantage Variations==
*In , advantages were earned by users through the season-long twist of Kami Island, a location wherein one member of the winning tribe or the winner of Individual Immunity could select a covered item for their game.
*In , , and , advantages were earned at an auction at the outset of the merge. Contestants were permitted to allocate an allowance of $500 between a variety of covered items and would earn that item if they placed the highest bid. Auction advantages have historically been non-transferrable.
**In , a variation of this called the challenging auction was used, wherein castaways had to compete in a challenge to earn the item and the highest scorer would win the item privately.
*In , advantages were earned at the Blood Money Casino, a casino that castaways could visit to spend the money earned season-long twist of Blood Money. Castaways could only visit the casino once per round and all items were covered.
*In , advantages were earned through the pre-merge twist of The Sleeping Mountain. In exchange for taking a temptation, castaways could earn an evolving reward. At random intervals in the game, the advantage would improve. Other castaways could de-activate these items temporarily if the owner confessed the possession thereof.
*In , advantages were earned at the Blood Money Armory, an armory that castaways could visit to spend the money earned season-long twist of Blood Money, and occasionaly through the idol system. Castaways could only visit the armory once per round and all items were covered.
