This season is called Battle of Class for a reason! The main theme of this season is CLASS DIVISION.
In addition to smaller twists that peg some housemates as "Haves" and others as "Have Nots", there is a MAJOR game-changing twist:
The Battle of Class.
This season, each week, housemates will compete in the Battle of Class to gain power and immunity for the week. 3 housemates, called THE ELITES, will win the competition, and get EXCLUSIVE access to THE PAD, which is a top-secret domain where they can talk game, live luxuriously, and share secrets.
Most importantly, however, The Elites will get the power to VETO one nomination for the week! Each Elite will cast a vote as to who they would like to veto. There must be at least a 2-1 majority for a housemate to be vetoed. This means that it IS possible, though unlikely, for the veto to also not get used at all.
If a housemate gets vetoed, then the next highest vote-getter(s) who were originally safe will be nominated. This means, now, more than ever, it's going to be extremely hard to float or coast.
It is also like HOH in BBUS, in the sense that housemates may only become Elite every other week. It is impossible for a housemate to be an Elite two weeks in a row.
