Top five will be players that have the biggest impact on MS survivor history. It should be players that were enjoyable to watch, did relatively well, and are memorable.
Chansey is a name that I know but I have never looked at that thread until today to see what all the hype is about. (I think the hype is a little overrated but you see my point.)
"haha yeah" is a popular survivor quote at this point relating to a memorable character(s), one of which won the game so I imagine Batwoman will be fairly high on the list. This is all just stuff I am speculating on and assumptions I am making on judging.

arkham city was a fucking gold mine for characters:
- alfred was ogml's first game and he was a spec fave and finished 3rd
- the whole star sapphire drama
- freeze v batwoman ftc
- abe's leak
- poison ivy
- krypto's dank memes
- hatter's villain ghost play
arkham was seriously good
i dont think eon was really that good as far as establishing characters go but it had strong play. depends on how it's judged
i havent read much on GOT so idk about that

GoT didn't have many especially memorable players or moments but there were a few players that could make it deep on very strong gameplay alone. I see Gilly making it to the F14 final thing, but she might be the only top 40 player from GoT.
GoT should average high though since there were very few of the "eh" or game-hurting characters that have been getting the boot now.

surprise! endgame is literally just botb with chansey/dragonite/tetra thrown in

i always thought BotB was Not Very Good due to the expected boring outcome or something
@Radja: rory was big interally but idk if that translated well outside of the players
@Zito: i personally loved Dante but he didn't have as much of a lasting "remember when" impact (tbf not many of hyrule's cast did)

I'm clearly a victim of recency bias since the first game I remember is DW but based on my VERY LIMITED reading of older games, here's my top 50 in no particular order (grouped by game)

im banking on getting 29/50 of those right

I'll always remember this game fondly. Like, it removed any desire to be on actual survivor because I feel online survivor is just as good.
Even the first boots Ozy and Clock were great.
V not giving a crap all game and being the countervote 7 tribals in a row
Rex being the mischievous strategic leader before being usurped.
Red Arrow making final 2 deals with everyone.
Rabbit surviving a tribe specifically built for screwing her over by flipping the vote onto Beast.
Alfred getting Rabbit voted out before him by getting Krypto to troll the repellent off Rabbit.
Alfred eliminating Arms instead of Freeze costing him the game.
Etc.

335. Sheik (Espeonage) - Hyrule
I've tried not to stand out to most people, but just tried to get along. Like I've joked around with a few of them with some banter so I think most like me, but by the same token I don't think anyone dislikes me. I've led big alliances in the past and it bites you endgame. So I want to be close to the top but not right at the very top just yet. I do make enemies though. You need to otherwise you can't get people to split into alliances.
Reading through Sheik's confessional you might think that Sheik was gonna go great places. You read other people's confessionals and that doesn't seem to be the case. I don't think Sheik quite realized the way he rubbed some people wrong. The way Sheik contributed to the first challenge really annoyed people. And then when the second challenge happened and there was next to no chance for Kokiri to win, Epona and Navi threw the challenge for the possibility of items because a Sheik vote was already going to happen anyways and #mutinynecklacewasworthit.
