After a few seasons with the Battle of the Block twist then bouncing right into All-Stars, it was time for a Back to Basics season...well sorta. This season featured a battleback and a triple eviction, two mechanics that have become staples within the series. There was a lot of fluid gameplay this season with no major sides truly forming. Instead, there were duos and trios that were constantly changing depending on the relationship dynamics. One of the most entertaining parts of the season was Jade and Ronald clutching vetoes back to back for 5 rounds in a row, bringing the two of them together as a comp beast duo as a result. While this season began relatively slow, it picked up quickly around the jury phase and it's safe to say that there were large amount of players who could've been a good winner for the season. Bobby was able to keep himself safe despite him being very clearly towards the top of the house and making his allegiances known. Ronald was a floater who was able to both minimize his threat level and win competitions when they mattered most for his game. At the end, the jury rewarded Bobby for his dominant gameplay and his ability to always be steps ahead of the curve.
