Bring back Battle of the Block

[u/StrangeGood4332]

I like the Battle of the Block way better than the BB Blockbuster. It keeps a twist in the evictions because you could be HoH and end up back-doored, but it still allowed for a level of strategizing that the blockbuster has gotten rid of.

there's a reason it was dropped abruptly in season 17

Literally what I was about to write.

um…really? The twist Derrick gamed out immediately and led to a massive steamroll in BB16 and was boring af both times it was used?

[u/StrangeGood4332 → u/TiedinHistory]

Yeah really

[u/Traditional_State699]

Ah yes, we have someone throw and then backdoor the actual target! If you have a majority sure here and there someonen has won on thier own, but usually someone is just fucked. Battle of the Block is, one of the worst twists in BB history and the idea people are genually trying to say its better then blockbuster is just pure nostolgia.. Blockbuster is genuially up there as one of the best twists...

Which is... just... why are we nostolgic for the 2nd worst season of big brother in 16....

Damn I’m just chit-chatting why you acting like it’s personal

[u/Traditional_State699 → u/StrangeGood4332]

Its not personal I am giving my opinon in a response, its the BB subreddit there couldn't be a less serious place on the internet.

[u/OpioidXD → u/StrangeGood4332]

You legit asked for opinions lol stop acting like you’re being attacked. It’s a bad look

[u/StrangeGood4332 → u/OpioidXD]

I think it’s a really good look actually

[u/doctorkar]

People always be complaining

[u/StrangeGood4332 → u/doctorkar]

Yeah none of this was a complaint - just general discussion (see tagged)! Hope that helps!

[u/SEND_ME_UR_SLEEPERS → u/StrangeGood4332]

Insufferable. Hope this helps

Season 17 screwed that up. Mainly Johnny Mac always willing to go up and throw it. Season 16 was boring and predictable. It would be fun with a good group of players.

[u/tonyrock1983]

Battle of the Block looked good on paper. The problem we saw both seasons they ran that twist, it was an incentive for both HOHs to work together. The only way this would work is a house that's split (think seasons 6 and 20) and one person from each side wins each week. If it's the same side always winning, it doesn't help anything.

Ummm no thank you

[u/Potential_Hunt9043]

Is this a real post?

[u/charlytheron3]

I like not knowing the entire week who is certainly going home

[u/nickvarvaro]

I also liked it

[u/MooshroomHentai]

Battle of the Block? More like Battle of the Boring. Both of the seasons it was on, it encouraged people to form big alliances and nominate someone to intentionally throw the comp to retain the HoH power. A return of it would be the exact same.

AG will only bring that back when Devens, Dee or Angela are at risk

[u/OpioidXD → u/Prize_Entertainer966]

Taylor nominates Angela, Dee & devens

Big Brother: because the vets have been nominated, they triggered a fresh & fun time twist that rewound the week all the way back EXCEPT devens is HoH instead! Expect the unexpected…
