Surv!vor: Cagayan

 is the twenty-sixth season of Ashley Neleh's ! Survivor series. Like the Survivor season it resembles, tribes were divided into "Brains" (representing intelligence), "Brawn" (representing challenge prowess), and "Beauty" (representing social skills). The 18 castaways participated in a series of challenges at the beginning of the game to sort themselves into these three tribes.

The Brains vs. Brawn vs. Beauty component continued in a variety of ways throughout the rest of the season. Each castaway decided what type of "superpower" advantage they would like, with Brains being a clue to a hidden !mmunity Idol, Brawn being a challenge advantage, and Beauty being a single vote nullifier. Baylor, Alec, and J'Tia from the previous season participated in the background as "Guard!ans" of Brawn, Brains, and Beauty, respectively. At the end of the competition, the Final 3 participated in a final set of challenges resembling the first, with the winner of each competition getting a jury vote from that respective Guard!an.

After a twisty season, it ended appropriately with the first ever tied jury vote in Surv!vor history. With the initial vote deadlocked 4-4-2 between Mike Holloway/killersped and Jefra Bland/KristaKrabby, the two individuals who voted for 2nd runner-up So Kim/Ghost of Chex had to participate in a re-vote. With two more votes in his direction, Mike claimed the title of Sole Surv!vor.

Future appearances
Jenn and Ralph returned in Surv!vor: Redemption Island. Lindsey, Ralph and Tony returned in Surv!vor: The Commemorative Season.

The castaways competed in a reward challenge. The bottom three were marked for elimination. Because Butch wasn't picked in any tribe, he was eliminated. For scoring the highest cumulatively in the reward challenge, Jenn and Tony were given the title of "Triple Threats." Rather than being chosen in the initial tribe draft, the other tribes allocated their points in the !mmunity Challenge to have them on their tribe. The Aparri tribe won the bids on both Jenn and Tony.

Season Summary
Due to the dissolution of tribes at the merge, there were no more "truels" as Reward Challenges.

Combined Reward and !mmunity Challenge.

Voting History
The first Tribal Council vote resulted in a tie. Per the rules, a second vote was held where the castaways involved in the tie would not vote and the remaining castaways could only vote for those who tied. Laura and Marissa were ineligible to vote in the second round of voting. Jefra used vote nullifier, which negated one vote casted against her. No vote: Hali chose to quit the game. Laura and Max were ineligible to vote in the second round of voting. Lindsey and So were ineligible to vote in the second round of voting. The first Tribal Council vote resulted in a tie. As there were only four castaways remaining, the two tied castaways competed in a fire making challenge to resolve the tie. LJ lost to Mike in the fire making tiebreaker challenge.
