Season summary

Like in the first season, the three tribes were divided based on the contestants country of origin. Along with this, each tribe was given the name of the country of its contestants origin in that country's native language. For an unknown reason there were only twelve contestants when this season started as opposed to the usual fifteen. When it came time for the merge a joker, Siiri Kuusmann from Estonia, entered the competition. As another twist, at the fifth tribal council two players were eliminated instead of the usual one. Due to the medical emergency that saw Vidmantas Lietuvninkas evacuation from the game, Linas Samaška from Lithuania became the first finalist of the season in episode eight. By the end of the same episode, Māris Sveiduks also became a finalist when the only other contestant from Latvia that remained, Anna Steina, was voted out at tribal council. As Māris won the final immunity challenge in episode nine, he and he alone would vote to determine who of Siiri Kuusmann and Viive Rižski would be the finalist from Estonia and the final contestant through to the final. When it came time for the final a combination of votes cast by jurors, votes cast by the public, and penalty votes from plank decided the winner. Ultimately, Māris Sveiduks of Latvia who won the season with just 2 votes against him, the runner up was Estonian Siiri Kuusmann with 13 votes against her and the second runner up was Lithuanian Linas Samaška with 19 votes against him.
