for Snakes, he's got a Mishmash record for three amazing Survivor wins here, here, and here. Really respected member of our community, and it's what he's best known for :) Additionally, he holds the highest rating in our site-wide competitive ELO, which can be found here.

(Was thinking just plain 'Survivor' but that strays into the 3rd Party Role/it's boring)
2nd/3rd
both of these.
N'th


Certainly deserved
(albeit slightly cheesy to me)


Surely "sole survivor" would avoid the conflation with the 3rd party role? hmmy hmm?

In my opinion:

With a title you either go for the gravitas effect or something rather amusing that makes you chuckle. This is neither a particularly witty one nor resonant enough for something like "soul survivor." Instead it's in this awkward halfway house between both islands were it does come across as half-baked and fails to either sufficiently credit a triple winner or provide an excellent in-joke ("Life and soul of the third party" or "It's pronounced Xalxe" are perfect examples of this).

I do agree Snakes deserves a title, but those are my thoughts on the current suggestion(s)
