## Features

### Twists

* **Battle of the Seasons:** This season the returning All-Star castaways were divided by their original seasons into five 'factions' of four people, where the losing factions would be forced to attend a Joint Tribal Council to vote one player out, all the while knowing their Tribes of the Future. These factions each owned their own bank of SuitBucks.
	+ **Tribes of the Future:** The tribes for the conclusion of the factions were revealed on Day 1, allowing castaways to know what tribe they will be diffused into. This forces them to determine who they need to keep around and who they need to take out, to ensure they have a sturdy force to control the tribe when it comes into play.
	+ **Joint Tribal Council:** The season began with a series of Joint Tribal Councils, with the multiple losing factions in each challenge forced to attend together to vote one person out until the tribes phase kicked in.
	+ **SuitBucks:** A new currency was introduced this season in the form of SuitBucks. Each faction had their own SuitBucks balance, and the faction with the most SuitBucks would win immunity for the first two rounds of the merge. However along the way there were temptations for individual power, that players could either buy themselves or sell to other factions.
* **Vote Sacrifice**: With SuitBucks ending at the merge, a new currency was introduced whereby people would have to sacrifice their own vote at Tribal Council in exchange for an advantage in the game.
* **Tribe Switch:** On Day 5, the Clervaux and Vianden tribes underwent a tribe switch, mixing up the tribes in a school-yard pick. The Winseler tribe was created during this switch.
* **Returning Players:** Twenty castaways from the first five seasons, classified as "All-Stars", returned this season to compete for a second time. For the Battle of the Seasons twist, there were four people from each of the five seasons - *Tasmania*, *Kalahari*, *Bahamas*, *Maluku* and *Naozhou*.

### Powers

* **Hidden Immunity Idols:** There was one hidden idol placed in each tribe camp, which could be found by correctly guessing the location in camp where it was hidden.
	+ **Revelation Idol:** A form of Hidden Immunity Idol that functions the same as a normal idol, but it also publicly reveals who voted for the person it's used on.
* **Instant Mutiny:** This power enables the user to instant mutiny to an opposing tribe. This will insert them into Tribal Council if that tribe is attending, making them vulnerable yet unable to vote, and vice versa.
* **Ejector Seat:** This power enables the user to leave Tribal Council. They cannot be voted out, but also cannot vote at Tribal.
* **Advantage Menu:** A power that offers three potential advantages for the person who obtains it, from which they must select one that they think will most help their game.
	+ **Viruses:** A group of curses which allow players to impose a ban on a particular game element to a player of their choice. This season featured a two-round ban on **Challenges**.
* **Extra Vote:** This power enables the user to vote twice at a particular Tribal Council.
* **Vote Stealer:** This power enables the user to take away someone's vote and instead cast two themselves at a particular Tribal Council.
* **Legacy Advantage:** A variant of the Hidden Immunity Idol, this power allows its holder to gain immunity at either the Final 11 or the Final 6 if played. In the event that the holder is eliminated, they must will it to another player still in the game.
* **Idol Nullifier:** This power enables the user to void the use of a Hidden Immunity Idol, by playing it on a specific person.
