And Yul is the last old school Survivor out. He is the All-Stars Ethan Zohn of Winners at War, the last of his kind before the game goes to hell.

The only way this boot order could have been worse is if the entire pre-merge was flipped backwards (Yul first, Nat last). This is why I have a love/hate feeling towards all-stars seasons. I initially get excited to see my favorites return, they all get voted off immediately, and the C- and D-listers play the back half.

The one redeeming thing is that I've grown to love all the winners of these types of seasons. Boston Rob was a nobody going into All-Stars but became a legend (bending the rule here, I know... he was the runner-up). Parvati was one of the most random picks for FvF/Micronesia but she earned the win and became one of my favorites. I thought Sandra was a weak winner heading into HvV but then distinguished herself by becoming a two-time winner.

Winners at War will probably feel better in retrospect once we know the winner and are presented with the full story of how they won.
