The Solana Alliance (also known as the Top Five Alliance) is the alliance formed by the members of the post-switch Solana tribe. Conceived by the "weakest member" of the Brawn tribe Trish Hegarty with the help of the only two Beauty left in Solana and her main ally Tony Vlachos, they blindsided the other former Brawn members and asserted control of the tribe. Bereft of other options, Woo Hwang soon joined the group, which Tony exuberantly dubbed "the top five." At the merge, their initial attempts to recruit erstwhile ally Sarah Lacina proved fruitless, but the defection of Kass McQuillen produced Sarah's blindside and secured majority status for the Solana Alliance.
