Just a notorious character.
And if he truly is in your top 100 players then you should probably re-evaluate that list.  He made moves based on what could get him to the end (at least in Samoa), that's one half of the goal of the game. I don't know how ousting his competitors and finding Idols were 'stupid' moves.
Doesn't show respect to the game of Survivor? Err....what? No, internet fans, especially Sucksters, just complain that he got such a big edit in Samoa and have an embedded hate for him so whenever someone wants to debate something about him, it effects their entire opinion. Because you dislike Russell, you convince yourself that he played REALLY ****ty. Worse than 1st boots! Worse than Erik Reichenbach! But it's not the case. He's in the Top 15 best, I'd say, hands down. |
No, I think you have to re evaluate what makes a good Survivor player, because clearly you don't know how the game works. Finding Idols doesn't make you a better player by any means, it just means you can win a scavenger hunt. How about you actually read the stupid moves that I've posted instead of just ignoring the facts I present and continuing on your delusion about how good Russell is?
Yes, he doesn't respect the game because he thinks it's broken. It's that simple. He lost twice, he cried like a baby and claims the game is broken. it's not broken, it hasn't been broken for 20 seasons, just because he thinks he's better than he is doesn't mean he deserved to win, and doesn't mean the game is broken. If that's not disrespect, I don't know what is.
And yes, his big edit is something to complain about when great social players like Natalie and Brett get shafted in the edit and then everyone claims "Natalie is the worst winner ever" and "Russell was robbed" when Natalie was one of the better winners Survivor has had. No matter what kind of edit Russell would've had, I still would've hated him because he doesn't respect the game. And my hate for Russell doesn't make me think he's a ****ty player, it's just the stupid moves that he makes. I've already named a few, you've failed to acknowledge any of them because they are stupid! And I never said that Russell was worse than Erik or first boots, so you need to stop putting words into my mouth to try to weaken my argument. Russell is definitely not top 15, and definitely not top 50, those are just about facts. I personally don't have him in my top 100, but I see many delusional people here have him far into their top 100.
