Strategy shift and surviving the wheel

Lorenzo Nova Nobilio approached Battle Camp with a revised strategy. Previously labeling himself a “master manipulator” in Squid Game: The Challenge, he explained that in this new setting, he focused on restraint.

The format of Battle Camp included a random elimination wheel, which meant that popularity alone wasn’t enough to guarantee safety. Nobilio stated:

“I really believe in energies, so I was trying to channel them for the wheel to land on my name.”

In the final Drop challenge, Nobilio helped Polly Brindle despite knowing it would increase his odds of being selected for elimination.

“For him to do that, knowing that he was going to have one less name on the wheel, says a lot about his character,” Brindle recalled.

Ultimately, his decision did not cost him the game, and he walked away with the $250,000 prize.


Learning control and forming connections

Post-win, Nobilio explained that he typically responds with a comeback or remark when others are, in his view, not behaving appropriately, adding that while he does not consider himself someone who should judge, he still feels compelled to do so "at the same time."

He described the setting as difficult, saying:

“I think that place is murderous — the altitude, the heat, the super cold, the wind, the dust. It was just not very nice.”

One of the strongest bonds he formed was with fellow contestant Georgia Hassarati. Hassarati explained that she would have left camp if it had not been for Nobilio, describing moments when she was overwhelmed and experiencing what she called "multiple little breakdowns," during which he consistently encouraged her to stay.
