Hying Saw

**Highest Placing Member**: Scott (4/20)

Hying Saw was a tribe from Survivor: Thailand.

Originally the most physically strong tribes of the pre-merge phase, Hying Saw suffered a little come the switch. With some castaways voted out, the merge proved a step in a troubling direction for a newly divided tribe. Their tribe colour was purple.

## Tribe History

The Hying Saw tribe was formed on Day 1 of Survivor: Thailand and consisted of former castaways, Laura, Liam, Scott and Tucker, with a Virgo horoscope. The quartet was extremely strong strong physically and of the five immunity challenges Hying Saw had together, they won all of them. During this time, the four castaways created the Hying Saw Alliance with the intention of looking after each other at the impending tribe switch.

On Day 11, the castaways were shocked to find out the first five eliminated would battle it out in a one time Redemption Island duel. Hying Saw was the only tribe without a representative in the duel, with Alistair from Kung, Eileen from Khu, Peeta from Ta Chang and Bobby Jon and Katniss from Waw. Katniss, who won the Redemption Island duel, got to choose her own tribe which ended up being Hying Saw. The new tribe included Katniss and her original tribe member Natalia, Kung members Harriet, Heron and Nick and original Hying Saw members Laura, Liam and Tucker.

Katniss and Natalia did have some troubles when they were on Waw but Katniss chose Natalia on her tribe so they could make amends. The pair soon rekindled their relationship and joined forces with original Hying Saw members which created a new majority force. This left the Kung Trio of Harriet, Heron and Nick in the minority. Hying Saw won the next two immunity challenges but lost the third. The trio voted for Tucker but the rest of the tribe sent home Heron. Harriet and Nick, without power, made a Final Two deal regardless of the outcome. They were given a break by winning the next immunity challenge. Liam conspired with Tucker to blindside Katniss, which ended up being a fatal error. When they lost the next immunity challenge, Katniss, Natalia and Laura voted for Liam and he was voted out.

The tribe was struck with another blow by losing the next challenge. Harriet and Nick, who were originally without a powerful alliance, thought their days were numbered. Laura and Tucker, knowing that their third number was eliminated, wanted to blindside Natalia and Katniss. The original Hying Saw members united with Harriet and Nick and when they attended tribal council, Natalia was voted out. Katniss was worried her position was on shaky ground now Natalia was voted out. Hying Saw however, won the final immunity challenge and were saved from voting someone out. On Day 30 the tribes merged and the remaining nine castaways played individually for the title of Sole Survivor.
