Battle of the Block

The  competition was a competition in Big Brother 16 that the two pairs of nominees participated in. The winning pair would be safe from eviction from the week and would also dethrone the Head of Household that nominated them, leaving the other HOH as the sole Head of Household. It replaced the Have/Have-Not Competition in the early part of the game.
