After two decades of buildup, “Survivor: Winners at War” finally debuted February 12, 2020 on CBS. In the two-hour season premiere, 20 fan-favorite champions returned for a shot at a record high prize of $2 million. The first two voted-out players were Natalie Anderson and Amber Brkich Mariano, but they’re hardly the only ones to feel the agony of having their torches snuffed by Jeff Probst. If you’re looking for Season 40 spoilers on every elimination so far, you’ve come to the right place. Tour our photos below to see the updated “Survivor” bootlist.

Boot Episode: “Out for Blood” on February 26, 2020
This winner of “Africa” was eliminated by the Sele tribe in a 4-3-1 vote over Adam and Parvati.

-
Rob Mariano

Boot Episode: “The Buddy System on Steroids” on March 11, 2020

-
Parvati Shallow

Boot Episode: “Quick on the Draw” on March 18, 2020

-
Sandra Diaz-Twine
Image Credit: Robert Voets/CBS 8th Voted Out (Day 16)
Boot Episode: “Quick on the Draw” on March 18, 2020
This two-time winner of “Pearl Islands” and “Heroes vs. Villains” was eliminated by the Dakal tribe in a 1-4 vote over Denise because Denise used an idol to save herself.

Sandra bequeathed her 1 fire token to Yul.
-
Yul Kwon

Boot Episode: “We’re in the Majors” on March 25, 2020
This winner of “Cook Islands” was eliminated by the Sele tribe in a 3-1 vote over Wendell. Yul tried to make a deal with Michele and Nick, but they were wary of his social strengths so they decided to vote out the last remaining “old school” player.
Yul bequeathed his 2 fire tokens to Sophie and Sarah.
-
Wendell Holland
Image Credit: Robert Voets/CBS 10th Voted Out (Day 21)
Boot Episode: “This is Where the Battle Begins” on April 1, 2020
This winner of “Ghost Island” was eliminated by the Koru tribe in a 9-3 vote over Adam. Wendell’s close friendship with Jeremy was seen as a threat by the others, particularly Sophie, so he was sent packing at the merge.

-
Adam Klein

Boot Episode: “War is Not Pretty” on April 8, 2020
This winner of “Millennials vs. Gen X” was eliminated by the Koru tribe in a 8-2-1 vote over Nick and Sarah. In a move that will go down in “Survivor” history, Adam thought that part of Jeff Probst’s podium was actually a hidden immunity idol, but it wasn’t.
Adam bequeathed his 1 fire token to Denise.
-
Tyson Apostol

Boot Episode: “The Full Circle” on April 15, 2020
This winner of “Blood vs. Water” was eliminated for the second time this season in a 5-2-0 vote over Sophie and Denise (who was protected with Kim’s idol). Two advantages were used at this wild tribal council: Jeremy’s safety without power and Sarah’s steal-a-vote.
Tyson had 0 fire tokens to bequeath.
-
Sophie Clarke

Boot Episode: “This is Extortion” on April 22, 2020
This winner of “South Pacific” was eliminated by the Koru tribe in a 4-3-2 vote over Jeremy and Michele. Despite her quiet domination of the game (plus a hidden immunity idol in her pocket), Sophie failed to recognize she was a target in Tony’s eyes and she was blindsided when he pulled in a small group to take her out.
Sophie bequeathed her 2 fire tokens to Sarah and Kim.
-
Kim Spradlin

Boot Episode: “Friendly Fire” on April 29, 2020
This winner of “One World” was eliminated by the Koru tribe in a 5-3 vote over Jeremy. Kim, Denise and Michele voted for Jeremy after their plan to oust Tony fell through the cracks, though Michele’s vote was just for show as she had given her buddy Jeremy her 50-50 coin as a way to protect him. He smartly chose not to use it at tribal council.
Kim bequeathed her 3 fire tokens to Sarah, Denise and Michele.
-
Jeremy Collins

Boot Episode: “The Penultimate Step of the War” on May 6, 2020
This winner of “Second Chance” was eliminated by the Koru tribe in a 3-2-0 vote over Ben and Michele; 2 votes for Michele were negated because she used her 50/50 coin. After being on the bottom for several weeks, Jeremy finally ran out of options and was sent to the jury.
Jeremy bequeathed his 2 fire tokens to Michele.
-
Nick Wilson

Boot Episode: “The Penultimate Step of the War” on May 6, 2020
This winner of “David vs. Goliath” was eliminated by the Koru tribe in a 4-2 vote over Denise. Nick thought he had enough support to send home Denise as an “easy vote” after she essentially gave up at camp, but Tony, Sarah and Ben chose to eliminate Nick instead.
-
Denise Stapley

Boot Episode: “It All Boils Down to This” on May 13, 2020
This winner of “Philippines” was eliminated in the finale by a 4-0 re-vote after Natalie and Ben both used idols to save themselves. Michele and Tony were also safe because of their immunities, so Denise and Sarah were the only two eligible to be voted out.

Boot Episode: “It All Boils Down to This” on May 13, 2020
This winner of “Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers” was eliminated in the finale by a 3-2 vote over Michele. Ben gave Sarah his blessing to vote him out so that she’d have a big move under her belt should she make it to the final tribal council (she didn’t).

Sarah Lacina

Episode: “It All Boils Down to This” on May 13, 2020
This winner of “Game Changers” was eliminated in the finale when she lost the fire-making challenge to Tony. Natalie won the final immunity challenge and chose to bring Michele with her to the end, so the two Cops-R-Us friends had to battle each other.

Episode: “It All Boils Down to This” on May 13, 2020
