**Jonvivor S2: Mount Olympus** was the second season of Jonvivor. Pre-Production for the season began March 17th, 2021, with return hosts Jon, Cinya, & Alicia, along with Snow & Kippy joining to host. Applications went out on the 15th of March, with the season officially starting on April 6th, 2021. The season lasted for **38** days, ending on May 13th, 2021. The season took place in ancient Greece, on Mount Olympus.

The season was made up of **twenty-one castaways**, separated at first into three tribes, **Zeus** in yellow, **Poseidon**, in blue, & **Hades** in red. They were named after three god kings of Ancient Greek mythology. Zeus king of the gods and Sky, Poseidon king of the sea, and Hades king of the underworld and the dead. The other tribes later in the season were named after ancient Greek deities as well, **Artemis** (god of the hunt), **Apollo** (god of the sun), and **Aether** (Primordial Deity of the "upper sky"). The winner of the season was **Jessica**, who won in a final 4-2-1 vote, against runner-ups, **Alfie** and **Claw**.

## Pre-Production

After production ended for Season 1, Konner had told Jon that he was stepping down as host to focus on his ORG, *Secretvivor*, and school and other things. During the season, Snow had mentioned maybe joining to help out, and Jon asked Kippy as well. Snow and Kippy were the two newest members of the hosting team, so now the team consisted of Jon, Cinya, Alicia, Kippy, and Snow.

Jon wanted to do a cool location for this season, and have an interesting theme. He knew that Kippy knows a lot about Greek Gods, so Mount Olympus was the location, and Kippy helped plan a lot. Planning started prior to the season ending, but the main chunk of planning happened directly after Season 1 ended.

## Production

The first applications were modified ones of Season 1, and they were sent out on March 15th, 2021, while the season was still being planned. Applications closed on April 5th, with the season starting the very next day, on April 6th, 2021. There was a total of 31 applicants, and 10 of them were cut to make this a 21 person season.

After the cast reveal on April 6th, the game had begun.

## Season Features

* **21 Person Cast:** This season consisted of 21 people playing for the title of Sole Survivor on Mount Olympus.
* **Three Starting Tribes**: The three tribes at the start were Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. They both consisted of 7 people.
* **Hidden Immunity Idols**: There was a hidden immunity idol hidden for each of the tribes. At the merge, another idol was introduced.
* **Voice Chat Immunity Idol**: In order to get the clue, you had to join your tribe's voice chat. Many people found this out accidentally.
* **Time Immunity Idol:** In order to get this idol, you could only make a guess every 4 hours as you answered trivia questions about Season 1.
* **Tribe Swap**: On day 8, the tribes swapped from three tribes, to two tribes of 8. The tribes were Apollo, and Artemis. One person was not chosen, and was exiled, joining the tribe that votes off the next castaway.
* **Duo Twist**: On day 12, Castaways were randomly paired into 7 Duos, where they would compete together, the top 3 scoring duos were safe, and the bottom 3 had to go to tribal.
* **Duo Exile Twist:** One person was not chosen for a duo, and they were exiled. This person got to chose 1 duo to automatically go to tribal council.
* **School Yard Pick**: On day 13, the tribes swapped again, this time into two new tribes of 7, chosen by two randomly selected Team Captains.
* **Merge**: On day 20, the final 11 castaways left in the game merged together into one tribe, called Aether.
* **Extra Vote**: This gave someone the power to vote twice at one tribal council.
* **Steal-A-Vote**: This gave someone the power to steal someone else's vote, so that they could not vote, and the person who stole it could now vote twice at one tribal council.
* **Safety Without Power Giveaway Advantage:** This gave someone the power to chose someone at tribal council to be safe, but without power, meaning that they will be able to leave tribal council and not take part in it. The person cannot be voted out, but cannot vote. They could not give this to themselves. It could be used for the last time at the final 7.
* **Public Hidden Immunity Idol**: This was a hidden immunity idol that would allow someone to block votes against them, however, everyone knew that this person had received it.
* **Half Hidden Immunity Idols**: This was a hidden immunity idol that would allow someone to block votes against them up until the Final 9, if combined with another half idol, it would have it's full power and work until final 5.
* **Final Tribal Council**: Final Tribal Council consisted of three finalists and seven jury members.
