Ultimate Survivor Champion 2016: Round 1: Wild Card

Survivor: Wild Card is the last season of Round 1 in the competition Ultimate Survivor Champion 2016. This season consisted of twenty contestants who had finished in thirteenth place in the twenty seasons of Round 1. The final twelve contestants left standing will move on to Round 2. Instead of automatically earning their spot, one castaway will return to each of the Round 2 seasons and serve as the first castaway on Redemption Island.

The twenty castaways were divided into two tribes of ten. To honor the very first season of Survivor, the season returned to Palua Tiga and the tribes were named Pagong and Tagi. The two tribes were swapped after five were voted out. The tribes merged at the Final 12. Anna Khait, Boo Bernis, Crystal Cox, Dave Johnson, Gregg Carey, Hali Ford, John Fincher, Julie Berry, Michael Snow, Neal Gottlieb, Penny Ramsey, and Shawn Cohen were the twelve moving on as the Wild Card representatives in Round 2.
