Being a prowess in athletics and a national athlete, the "Mr. Pentastic" of Leyte province, Michael Ver, showcased his competitive spirit in facing challenges thrown by Big Brother. Despite earning immunity for the second nomination round, securing the Head of Household title for Week 19, and saved through the Ligtask Challenge a week later, his first stint in the house was marred by unfavorable perceptions from both housemates and the public. Criticized for being easily angered and oversensitive, Michael Ver found himself entangled in a love triangle with Seham Daghlas and Zach Guerrero.
His image took a further hit when he was disliked by the public for allegedly talking behind the backs of the Juane siblings, Nathan and Raf, to Laziz Rustamov, a close friend of the two. Adding to the tensions, Michael Ver retaliated by giving two nomination points to Raf as an "act of vengeance" since Raf had nominated him in the previous rounds. This divisive attitude throughout the 70 days of the Adult Edition ultimately cost him a spot in the Adult Top 2 against Nathan and Isabel Laohoo.
Despite the setbacks, Michael Ver received a second chance when invited back to the house as a wildcard housemate alongside Guerrero. The wildcard duo had the opportunity to become "Biga-10" housemates and successfully clinched the seventh and eighth spots after winning the Biga-10 Comeback Campaign against the Celebrities and Teens. However, their group camaraderie failed to make an impact in the Kumuni-Test challenge. The Celebrities (Anji Salvacion, Brenda Mage, and Samantha Bernardo) secured the first three finale spots, leaving only one spot for the adult housemates as a consequence. Michael Ver, unfortunately, couldn't secure that one finale spot reserved for their Kumunity as Laohoo won by a significant margin against him, Guerrero, and Juane in the open voting period, with Michael Ver receiving only 3.47% of combined save-evict votes compared to Guerrero's 21.51%, Juane's 20.66%, and Laohoo's landslide vote with 52.84%. Michael Ver finished in tenth place overall in the season.
