Survivor: Bagan

***Survivor: Bagan*** is the twentieth season of *Brovivor*.

*Bagan* had a major goal in the production's mind, and that was to bridge the gap between the old Brovivor and the modern Brovivor. Bring back players from the oldest and newest of seasons. Which ended up working out because the cast ended bringing back a player from the second season as well as players from the nineteenth. The season was known for it's really exciting early game-mid game, but with an average late game due to many big players and characters going out back to back. This season achieved it's biggest pre-season goal and will be remembered in Brovivor history for several iconic tribal councils and challenges.

In the end, it was Old School Brovivor player Gruff who was given the title Sole Survivor after beating former premerger legend Ice in a 8-1 Vote.

## Production

Production for *Bagan officially* started after the eighteenth season, where AJ and Matt along with returning production members Aaron, Aussie, Jordan, and Zach hosted the season.

## Twists/Changes

* **Second Chances:** All castaways this season are returning players that have only played one time and have also never won the game. This Includes players looking for redemption from their original season because their stories were cut short or perhaps they made a regretful move. This also includes older players who may have distanced from the community, or players that may have not had a chance to return until this season.
* **Secret Exile:** At the first immunity challenge, all the castaways would vote for one person on their tribe to go to Secret Exile where what happened would remain unknown to the other castaways. (More Information Added Later)
* **Diplomatic Tribal Council:** At the Final 18, One member from each of the winning tribes will be attending the losing tribe’s tribal council. These representatives will be the member of the tribe with the lowest time in this challenge. The representative from the 2nd place tribe will be given an individual immunity necklace for this diplomatic tribal, while the representative from the 1st place tribe will receive an individual immunity idol that is only valid at this tribal council. These representatives **will have a vote** at this tribal council. The representatives will then return to their original tribe after the completion of this tribal council.
* **Hero Challenge:** At the Final 17, a hero challenge occurred where each tribe in the game will elect one person on the tribe to compete in the challenge. A majority of the tribe must agree to the person who represents their tribe. The catch with this challenge is that before it begins, they will not know what the rules are. However, once the players who are voted into the challenge get access to their chat, they will be given the entirety of the rules.
* **Tribe Draft:** At the Final 16, the two players who won the Hero Challenge from the previous round would become tribe captains where they would be able to choose the people who joined their newly created tribes. Unlike Seasons 12 and 13, this was not a challenge for immunity, and instead simply took place instead of the traditional tribe swap.
* **Immunity vs Advantage:** At the first challenge of the merge, castaways were given the choice between playing for immunity, or sitting out and playing for an advantage in the game instead. The winner of the advantage was not revealed during the game.
	+ **Bounty Advantage:** The player who won the advantage at the first merge challenge would receive the Bounty advantage, which allowed the winner to select one person in the game and place a bounty on them. This meant whenever their bounty was voted out, they would receive individual immunity the following round.
* **Loved Ones Visit:** For the first time in Brovivor History, players in the game were visited by loved ones. These loved ones would help compete in the individual immunity challenge, and would have a chance to stay at camp for the round.
