Very few people have as impressive a Survivor resume as Cirie. She's one of only four people, and the only woman, to play four times. She's played for the second-most days, only behind Ozzy. Aside from a hiccup in Heroes vs. Villains, she's made it to the season finale every time. She has never been voted out by normal means - a tie, a surprise final 2, an idol, and four idols at once. And she's done this without ever winning an immunity challenge or possessing an immunity idol that she could legally play. Really on paper the only thing missing from her resume is a win. So what is it that's holding her back? I could say luck, but really aside from the surprise final 2 in Micronesia she didn't lose to luck, and even then you could argue that she had the same opportunity to win that final immunity as Amanda and Parvati. You could say it's that she's played a similar game all four times and hasn't changed anything up, but again, aside from a bump in HvV, it's always gotten her deep into the game, so why change what consistently works? Maybe it is her inability to win challenges or find idols, and to be fair, that is a huge part of the game, hence why I have her way down here. I'd usually say, if you can play four times and not win, it's time to pack it in, but in any of those three seasons where Cirie had made it near the end, if she had gone to the finals she would have swept the jury vote. I think she is capable of winning, but there's just something holding her back.
