Liz Parnov wins Channel 10’s Australian Survivor: Heroes v Villains

Liz Parnov emerged as the winner of Australian Survivor: Heroes v Villains.

The show revisited Samoa in 2023 which provided the perfect backdrop for the challenges, strategic thinking, and gameplay that unfolded.

The final episode saw four contestants battle it out in the most brutal challenge of the season, with Liz emerging as the winner. She stood strong on some tricky poles with spikes being pushed into their backs for several hours, securing a spot in the final three.

Back at camp, the final four contestants discussed which among them would be sent to the Jury during the upcoming Tribal Council. Liz revealed her plan to eliminate George, with Gerry suggesting that everyone put their votes on him.

Tension built up as the Tribal Council approached, with the three contestants left to plan their pitches to prove why each deserved to be the Sole Survivor. In an explosive move, Gerry, Matt and Liz all voted for George, sending him to the Jury and leaving the final three to compete for the ultimate title.

Gerry, Liz, and Matt all gave it their all during the season’s last Tribal Council. The Jury threw them some tough questions, and the three gave lengthy explanations as to why their gaming was the most deserving, which player had made the most consequential plays, and which player had shown the most skill in challenges. Matt and Gerry were put to the test by the jurors, who demanded explanations for their answers. Liz made use of these occurrences to make some strong assertions. The jury was given a $5000 reward and told to decide who should receive it.

After making a compelling case to the Jury, Liz was ultimately declared the winner. As it turned out, she could have gotten by without Shonee’s support. Then, everyone ran into the midst of Tribal Council to celebrate Liz Parnov, our 2023 Sole Survivor, two-time Olympian in the Pole Vault, and ultimate villain.
