Koopa

**Koopa** was the Fan Favorite of Mythvivor: Babylon and the Sole Survivor and Fan Favorite of Mythvivor: Rome - Fans vs. Favorites. He is the only player to have won Fan Favorite twice in Mythvivor history.

## Babylon

Koopa started Mythvivor: Babylon on the Adad tribe. Theere, he formed a really close bond with Tara and they formed an alliance with Joe. Adad went to the first tribal council, where they unanimously voted out JD.

In "The Secret Ingredient Is Lies," Adad lost the Mythvivor Jeopardy challenge. Due to a Mount Nisir decision, Adad had to attend a joint tribal council with Tiamat, the other losing tribe. Koopa was concerned that they were down in numbers and talked a lot with Shep and Bubbles hoping to flip things around. Tiamat had attempted to target Steve, who was a member of Adad. Most of Tiamat had made it clear they were not going to flip. However, Henry was disgruntled at his position on Tiamat. Henry instantly ran to the members of Adad and offered to vote one of them out. Adad and Henry voted out Shep, leaving most of Tiamat shocked.

In "Rooster Yell," Adad would then lose their third challenge in a row, Emoji Charades. Koopa and Tara targeted Steve and he went out unanimously. In this episode, Koopa also visited Mount Nisir where he reunited with Bubbles from Tiamat and met Zack from Shamash. There, he was confronted by Bubbles and discussed Henry's vote against Shep, pointing out that it was obvious since Henry had signed his parchment. Koopa, Bubbles, and Zack had the opportunity to pick up amulets which grew in power as each person who had one was voted out. When only one remained, it worked as a Safety Without Power for the holder.

Koopa would then meet Bubbles and Zack again when they swapped onto the Euphrates tribe. He was on the top of the rankings for Adad during the Bureacratic Swap and swapped with Tara from Adad. He was quickly confronted by the members of Tiamat who swapped onto Euphrates with him, Ben, Bubbles, and Niki. They accused him of covering for Dan who they believed to be the flipper. This confused Koopa. Between these accusations, their previous strained relationships from the joint tribal council, and the tribe numbers between Tiamat-Adad-Shamash (3-2-2), Koopa and Tara chose to work with former Shamash members, Physh and Zack.

In "You Gotta Be Ruthless," Euphrates lost their second immunity challenge. Bubbles attempted to target Ben while Ben targeted Tara. However, Koopa, Tara, Physh, and Zack were concerned that Bubbles was setting an idol trap for them and voted out Bubbles instead.

Koopa then swapped onto the Enki tribe. However, this tribe won their only challenge, Head 2 Head Puzzles, and never attended tribal council. Zack was voted out of the opposing Ninhurag tribe, which meant that Koopa's amulet was the last remaining one and that it would work as a Safety Without Power.

Once the tribes merged, Koopa worked with his allies to vote out Physh, and only picked up a couple stray votes from Ben and Physh. In "Self Care Involves Never Doing Math," Derz had become the majority target by the tribe. While Koopa wasn't fond of this plan, wanting to target Jordanne instead, he went along with it. However, Ben idoled Derz and took out Koopa's former ally Joe, who had thrown a stray vote against Koopa's closest ally, Tara, at the merge tribal council. Following this, Ben became the majority target and was voted out by the tribe.

In "Not Clickbait," the tribe played Touchy Subjects. Koopa won the titles of "Actually Running the Game" as well as "Most Likely to Win" which he won jointly with his closest ally, Tara. At tribal council, Koopa originally wanted to target Henry along with Alex, Becca, Derz, and Jordanne. Tara convinced him to tie the vote and vote against Alex instead. However, Koopa decided to switch his vote during the revote, avoiding rocks and sending Henry out of the game.

In "Floplliance," Koopa's Amulet, which worked as a Safety Without Power, was expiring. However, despite knowing he was a target, he chose not to use it as he wanted to have power and the conversations in a tribal council. While some considered other targets, his closest ally, Tara, was targeting him strongly as she felt that she did not need him anymore. Koopa was voted out by most of the tribe.

At the reunion, Koopa won Fan Favorite, Best Confessionals, and the Parker's Favorite Award for his video confessionals, strong gameplay, and hilarious quips throughout the season. He also won the Best Duo Award with his ally, Tara, as a result of their strong duo that was a force to be reckoned with through most of the game.

## Rome

Koopa started Mythvivor: Rome - Fans vs. Favorites on the Romulus tribe, also known as the "Favorites" tribe. Koopa quickly found himself in a strong position in the tribe. He formed a duo Anna and joined a majority alliance created with Anna, Joe, Marcus, Ross, and Shep. Koopa began to be very skeptical of Aidan and Ross, as he saw them as a duo that did not have his best interests at heart. Koopa first voted Ravr out with the tribe. He then joined the tribe in targeting Cole, who had been targeting his close ally, Anna. When the Favorites tribe had to attend a third tribal council, Koopa didn't want to vote Maibelle, but understood that he was the most practical vote out for the tribe.

Koopa then swapped onto the Romulus 2 tribe where the former Favorites had a 6-2 majority. Koopa wanted to target TJ, one of the Fans, as he bonded more easily with Space. However, this tribe never attended a tribal council.

During the Foro Romano twist, Koopa won immunity and officially became a member of the merged Bellona tribe. While Koopa didn't initially want to target Space, he decided to do so once Space began leaking their conversations. He also hoped that the Fans would be more likely to flip on Space after a tie as Space had been seen as the swing vote due to his swap with the Favorites tribe. Koopa, feeling something was off, warned Ross, the Fans' target, to play his idol. However, Ross did not play his idol. Ross left the game with the Favorites idol in his pocket when Aidan flipped to the Favorites to vote him out. Koopa was very frustrated with Aidan for flipping on the Favorites, as well as with Space for his smugness.

However, Koopa was determined to bounce back. He started his recovery by finding the merge immunity idol. With Aidan winning immunity, Koopa saw an easy target being taken off the table. After talking with the Fans, Koopa realized that Add and Dumb would be open to flipping against TJ. Koopa, Anna, Marcus, Joe, Add, and Dumb voted out TJ, leaving Aidan and Space, who had frustrated Koopa the previous vote, in shock.

With Aidan losing individual immunity in "Happy Birthday Buddy," Koopa was eager to vote him out. He felt that he couldn't trust Aidan and that it should be an easier vote. However, Aidan and Space convinced the other Favorites to vote out Add instead. Koopa went along with this plan, not wanting to cause disorganization and a rift between his allies. However, Add played an idol on himself and voted out Koopa's closest ally, Anna, with Max. This left Koopa as the only person in the game without a partner-in-crime, but he was determined once again to bounce back.

Moving forward, Koopa's allies, Joe and Marcus, wanted to target Dumb with Max and La Pinner. However, Koopa felt that his relationship with Dumb was relatively strong. He joined Space, Add, and Dumb in targeted Max instead. They attempted to pull Aidan into their voting block. While Aidan did choose to throw his vote to buy himself time to decide, he eventually chose to vote out Dumb. This left Koopa on the wrong side of the numbers, and having just voted apart from the other Favorites in the game. This further damaged his relationship with Aidan.

In "Up in the Air," Aidan attempted to flip back and targeted Joe. Aidan planned to force a tie with Space, Add, and Koopa that could go to rocks (against the odds) against the other side. However, Koopa felt that Aidan hadn't valued him in this game, and wanted no part of going to rocks, let alone against the odds, for Aidan's plan. He felt that this plan was easily avoidable if Aidan had voted out Max at the preceding tribal council. Koopa sided with his former allies in voting out Add to avoid forcing a tie and working with Aidan.

Aidan was disappointed in Koopa's decision. He targeted Koopa with Marcus and La Pinner. In Season 7, Koopa had been voted out of the game with a Safety Without Power in his pocket. However, this time, Koopa learned from his mistakes and played his immunity idol. He idoled his rival, Aidan, out of the game.

In "Easily Preventable," Koopa initially looked to target Marcus, who he saw as a threat, with Max, Space, and La Pinner. However, after a conversation with Joe, Koopa realized that he would then be in a position where he would need to win the Final Immunity Challenge to win the game. He worked with Joe, Marcus, and Koopa to outmaneuver the Fans and get themselves into the Final 6. Koopa and Marcus created a fake plan with Space to vote out Max. Instead, Koopa, Joe, and Max, voted out Space in a 3-2-1 vote. This got all three into the Final 6 and gave them the best odds of winning the game. Max now planned on taking Koopa with himself and La Pinner to the final 3.

When Joe won the Puzzle Tour immunity challenge, Marcus saw himself as the next to get voted out. At first, Marcus fell on his sword. Marcus then changed his mind and targeted Koopa with La Pinner. While Max did consider Koopa's threat level, he decided to stick with his original plan and vote out Marcus with Koopa and Joe.

The Final Immunity Challenge was a showdown: if Joe lost immunity, they would vote Joe out and Koopa would make Final Tribal Council. However, if Joe won immunity, Koopa would likely find himself voted out. Koopa won the Final Immunity Challenge himself over the biggest challenge threat of the season, Joe. As a result, Koopa was able to solidify his spot as the biggest threat going into Final Tribal Council.

At Final Tribal Council, the jury really respected Koopa's social game and strategic maneuvering. He received 7/8 votes from the jury. At the reunion, he won the Best Rivalry Award with his season-long rival, Aidan. He also won the Best Move Award and Best Alliance Award for their alliance that brilliantly took out Space in a 3-2-1 vote. Koopa also won the Host Favorite Award from Nina. Last but not least, Koopa also won the Fan Favorite Award for the second season in a row, for his fun video confessionals and consistent resilience no matter what the game threw at him.
