Parvati Shallow


Outside of Sandra, Parvati has one of the most impressive Survivor resumes. She has played a total of 114 days in three seasons, and has finished 1st, 2nd, and 6th. That is one hell of an average.
Parvati is often categorised as the “flirt”, and while she certainly is a flirtatious person, it is unfair to diminish her strategy to just that. Parvati is very charming, and if given enough time she is able to use that charm to put together a strong alliance with an almost unbreakable bond. She inspires loyalty, one only has to look at her controlling of the female alliance in Micronesia. She can be a leader, but also allow someone else to take charge while subtly controlling their moves (as in Russell Hantz in Heroes vs Villains). Parvati is a strong challenge competitor, a decent worker around camp, and has a mind built for this game.

What is holding Parvati back from that number one spot is the fact that although she played an incredible game in Micronesia, she had a lot of help from Cirie, who arguably would have won that season if not for the sudden change from a Final 3 to a Final 2. Also, if it wasn’t for Jonny Fairplay throwing in the towel, Parvati very well could have been voted out first in Micronesia. Parvati also benefited from sitting next to one of the worst jury performers of all time in Amanda.
