Blow after blow after blow, it seemed like nothing ever went Dano's way. He was the biggest underdog of the season and tallied the most votes to show for it.

The start of Dano's game was its peak, after forming an alliance with Monkey and Phoenix he was able to sit comfortably, especially with all of the Alexander tribe's immunity wins. However the merge continued with a different story.

After barely surviving the fifth tribal council in which Darryl was eliminated, Dano and his alliance was forced to work with the other half of former Alexander in order to keep a majority over former Achilles. However, this was short lived as Phoenix became the third castaway eliminated post merge with two former Achilles members still in the game.

Then, as things weren't already bad enough, Monkey confronted Dano and flipped on him for his selfish decision of voting off Phoenix in order to protect his own game. Forcing him to have to flip on his only true ally left in the game. At the final six Monkey was left alone with no allies left outside of his loose ties with the rest of former Alexander, which proved to be enough to get him through to the final five as Lime was eliminated.

The rest of Dano's game revolved around staying low. He had worked himself into a position with solid jury management in which every person eliminated would likely at least consider him for their vote, so if he made it to the finale then he had a solid chance of winning. Dano avoided the chopping block efficiently as Steven was eliminated for being a threat, even managing to become closer with Dan in the process. At the final four Dano was faced with a decision. Knowing that Dan and Semi were working closely, he could either side with them and eliminate Elx or side with Elx and force a tie in an attempt to eliminate Dan. He ultimately chose to side with Elx, and when Elx lost the tie breaker challenge he was left to fend for himself yet again.

At the final three it was Dano vs Dan and Semi. Had he made the finale he had a fairly good shot of winning the whole season but he simply couldn't pull through in the last challenge. And when Semi won immunity, his game was over.
