Computer specialist Martin Kanev from Sofia grabbed the victory and a check for 100,000 leva in the sixth season of the extreme reality show “Games of Will”, NOVA reported.
The last surviving member of the Brave tribe triumphed in the final seconds against strategist Georgi Geshev and calisthenics competitor Dobrin Dobrev.
“Great game! I came with a request for first place and I was so happy to be in the final. I felt like one of the winners and now I am the big winner. I am sure that my father is looking down on me and is proud of me”, the champion shared minutes after the victory.
The final battle took place with constant changes of leadership. Geshev's strength gave him an advantage in the physical obstacles, but his better aim and speed allowed Dobrin to reach the logical puzzle before everyone else. Despite the initial lag, strategist Martin adapted the fastest and was the first to arrange the winning combination of the puzzle.
In the semi-final clash, one of the most memorable characters in the sixth season of the show was eliminated - businessman Radu Shulyak, who took an honorable fourth place.
The first television interview of the champion Martin Kanev is coming this morning on “Wake up”, and Radu will meet with the host Marina Tsekova in the weekend format on Sunday. The winner is also a guest on the official podcast “After the Games”, where Vanya Zapryanova awaits him with a series of provocative questions. The episode is available on YouTube, NOVA PLAY and Vbox7.
