Random.org Survivor: Malaysia

*Random.org Survivor: Malaysia - Heroes vs. Villains* was the forty-ninth season in the *series*.

The season took place in the Taman Negara Park in Malaysia.

The twenty-four contestants, referred to as "castaways," were divided into four tribes of six returning players who were either "heroes" or "villains." The two Hero tribes were Satu Heroes and Dua Heroes, meaning one and two in Malaysian respectively. The two Villain tribes were Satu Villains and Dua Villains, meaning the same thing. They represent the name of the camps and the separate teams with immunity and tribal council. On Day 13, there was a tribe absorption leading to two new tribes of ten divided by Heroes and Villains. The merged tribe was named by the 13 castaways who made the merge. They named the tribe Battlon, slang for "battle on."

Logan Shane beat out Nora Carson and Cameron Vaughn in a 7-3-1 vote in the final tribal council.

## Twists

* **Fire Tokens:** Fire tokens work differently this season. When someone is voted out, they must bequeath their fire token to someone else. At every new stage of the game, the current player with the most accumulated fire tokens will earn an advantage without forfeiting any fire tokens. If players are tied, each of them will receive an advantage. There will be no fire token purchases; only gains. Fire tokens can, however, be traded in exchange for something in the game between players.
	+ **Tribe Absorption - 50/50 Coins:**Because Mark, Sydney, Abi-Maria, and Joe S. each had the most fire tokens with two each, they each received a 50/50 Coin. On Day 27 at the first tribal council, Sydney flipped her 50/50 coin and earned safety, negating ten votes cast against her. Abi-Maria and Joe S. never played their 50/50 coins because they were both blindsided on Day 30 by their temporary tribes.
	+ **Tribe Merge - Super Hidden Immunity Idol:**Because Mark had the most fire tokens with four at the time of the merge, he received a Super Hidden Immunity Idol that was good through the Final Eight. On Day 30, Mark had to use the Super Hidden Immunity Idol following Nora's idol play, negating two votes and forcing a revote.
	+ **Final Three/Final Tribal Council - Extra Jury Vote:**Because Logan has the most fire tokens with 18 by the final tribal council, he received an extra jury vote added to his tally.
* **Hidden Immunity Idols:** There is one hidden immunity idol hidden at random places in, near, or around camp. If found with a clue, the idol may be hidden in a spot in camp. After idols are successfully played or leave the game, new idols are hidden the same way.
	+ **Satu Heroes Idol:** Mark found the Satu Heroes Idol on Day 10 hidden at the top of a tree which could only be unlocked from a key in a buried chest. Mark never played the Satu Heroes Idol.
	+ **Dua Heroes Idol:** Nora found the Dua Heroes Idol on Day 2 hidden at the top of a tree which could only be unlocked from a key in a buried chest. Nora played the Dua Heroes Idol on Day 30, successfully negating three votes cast against her and forcing a revote.
	+ **Satu Villains Idol:** Logan found the Satu Villains Idol on Day 12 hidden at the top of a tree which could only be unlocked from a key in a buried chest. Logan played the Satu Villains Idol on himself on Day 36, negating two votes cast against him.
	+ **Dua Villains Idol:** Cierra found the Dua Villains Idol on Day 11 hidden at the top of a tree which could only be unlocked from a key in a buried chest. Cierra never played the Dua Villains Idol because she was blindsided on Day 20 and the idol was never rehidden.
	+ **Battlon Idol:**Sydney found the Battlon Idol on Day 31 hidden in groove in the camp pond nearby requiring a key to open a chest. Sydney played the Battlon Idol on Day 35, successfully negating five votes cast against her and eliminating Rey with one vote.
