Relying on misplay strategies is risky cause it's less of your skill and more of their absence

I think there's a distinction between arrogance and overconfidence. They can look a lot alike, but overconfidence might just be someone who just has a too-positive outlook about what's going on around them. In a way it can be a lack of self-awareness, or a lack of suspicion, and that's always fun to watch unfold in a game like this. Even if you think the player is getting cocky, it can be fun to watch them get their comeuppance.
Arrogance is different... I mean, from a Survivor standpoint, it probably unfolds the same way and we can enjoy it or not in the same way also. But obviously an arrogance is a bad quality in a person. It means they think they're better than other people, not just that they're in the most cushy and commanding position in a game.

I think being confident in yourself, even a little overconfident, is a good trait in Survivor, because you need the confidence in your own agency to make moves.
But Lion is so hateable and it isn't just his arrogance, but also his delusion that makes me dislike him as a character. It's insufferable. He is fun to root against though and I'm very excited to see his reaction to Hedgehog going home, though he may well celebrate. But I just think him facing some adversity and not getting his way will be very interesting.

Self-righteousness is more of a pain tbh

i think lion makes for a great character and i'm excited to see what happens with his story especially since it's starting to fall apart
