* JerkassHasAPoint: Why did Jim take it so personally when Cochran flipped to Upolu after the votes were tied? Because he and Cochran were the only two Savaii members in danger of elimination in the tie-breaker that would otherwise have followed (due to the odd rules of the [[FanNickname Purple Rock of Doom]]). Jim had been willing to take the risk, and saw Cochran's actions as pure cowardice.

Badass Mustache and Badass Beard were merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. Having facial hair is not enough to qualify. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with manliness in some way. Please read the trope description before re-adding to make sure the example qualifies.

* GoodOlBoy: Rick's casting archetype is this. His pre-season bio video and Jeff's cast assessment have to do with his country background and family values. Some other men who were cast for the same ''Good Old Boy'' character trope in other seasons are Rodger Bingham, Big Tom Buchanan, Travis 'Bubba' Sampson, James Clement, Brandon Bellinger, Boo Bernis, Chicken Morris, J.T. Thomas, Ralph Kaiser, Jeff Kent, Caleb Bankston, Jeremiah Wood, Keith Nale, Mike Holloway, Caleb Bankston, Ben Driebergen and Carl Boudreaux.

Black Best Friend was renamed Token Black Friend. Removing examples that are low context or otherwise not about a black Satellite Character who adds diversity. Do not re-add without that context.


* BlackBestFriend: Subverted the longer the season went on and his relationships with everyone else (but especially Sophie) got more strained.

** To a lesser extent, her sole reliance on her physical game to help her. She got voted out after repeatedly one-handing the slingshot, despite Jeff implying 3 times that wasn't a good system. Then, the duel she lost against Christine was heavily cerebral.

--> "You can never count on someone flipping over. You can never know for sure. That said, I think I feel as confident about Cochran flipping over, because Cochran thinks that if he switches and comes back to camp he's gonna get beat up. Which is a legitimate thing for a dodgeball target to be afraid of."

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: After Ozzy's SuicideByCop, he berated Cochran for not taking the fall, and advised that he should "step up and show the world what you can do." Cochran would indeed do just that... by flipping and getting Keith out.
* BigGuyFatalitySyndrome: The first one targeted by Upolu post-merge.
* InformedFlaw: His pacemaker. The fact is barely mentioned outside his [[AllThereInTheManual pre-game interview]].
* HandicappedBadass: First contestant with a pacemaker, and also happens to be one of Savaii's strongest members. Surprisingly for the show, the fact that he has a pacemaker is barely mentioned at all.

* KarmicDeath: It is Cochran's vote that sends him out.
* TheLancer: To Ozzy
* ShipTease: With Whitney. They did have a RelationshipUpgrade post game and competed on Characters/TheAmazingRace25.

* GenreSavvy: During Coach's crusade against Mikayla, he was smart enough to point out that it's important to ''get'' to the merge in a majority before worrying about loyalty. However, this falls on deaf ears with Coach.



* RunningGag: A running theme was him creating some kind of plan to take control of the game, only for it to fail ''every time'' (usually because Sophie [[GenreSavvy thought the idea was stupid]] and [[SpannerInTheWorks refused to go along with it]]). Hilariously, the one time one of his plans ''did'' pay off it was almost by accident. He was aiming to convince Brandon to vote with him at Tribal Council, and not only did Brandon do that but he also gave Albert his necklace of ''his own volition.''

* GenreSavvy: When Brandon tells her that she's the sixth person in a five-person alliance, she ''tries'' to get in good graces with the majority rather than get mad and further alienate herself. It worked, and she managed to survive over the stronger, but less trustworthy Mikayla.



* GenreSavvy: He claimed to be, in one of his first confessionals, one of the most game-savvy contestants to ever play. Sure, he was savvy, but it didn't help when he wasn't very good with people.



* GenreSavvy: Recognizes that the returnees have to go because every time, the "fans" get awe-struck and let the returnees walk all over them.

** Redemption Island was intended to be a a form of purgatory for the players who are voted out, a final opportunity to cling to the game. However, it just so happens to play directly to Ozzy's strengths. Being on Redemption Island means he doesn't have to worry about the strategic or social aspects of the game, which are his biggest weaknesses. Instead he just spends the post-merge doing what he's best at, which is winning challenges and surviving the elements without having to share with or compete against an entire tribe. As a result he is able to reenter the game well nourished and no blood on his hands.
