Devon Pinto
The easygoing surfer who quietly steered the Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers blindsides and came up one fire short.
Known for
Devon came across as laid-back and harmless, and that was the cover. Swapped alone onto Levu, he sniffed out a lie from Joe Mena and then got hit with a blocked vote from an "advantage" slipped into his bag. He survived that swing seat and reached the merge with friends on every side.
Lauren Rimmer pulled him into a secret final four pact with Ashley Nolan and Ben Driebergen, and Devon became its tactician: he outed Ryan Ulrich's idol, drew up the double-agent play that blindsided JP Hilsabeck, and sold a fake vote split that sent Joe home. He went a long stretch without a single vote cast against him, and when Ben's idol finally put him in danger, his stray vote for Mike Zahalsky forced a tie and saved him. Chrissy Hofbeck's final-four advantage then sent him to fire against Ben, and Ben won. On the jury, Devon cast Ryan's lone vote.
