‘Magic: The Gathering' Unveils Its First ‘Avatar: Last Airbender' Card
Naturally, that card is a Legendary featuring Aang manipulating water, fire, earth, and air while in the Avatar State. On the flip side is him looking up at his Avatar Spirit, with artwork for both sides drawn by Airbender co-creator Bryan Konietzko, a process you can see below. For Magic players, the 'Avatar Aang' side lets them draw a card whenever they bend one of the four elements and transform into Avatar Aang if all four are drawn by the current turn. Conversely, the 'Master of Elements' side lets them 'gain 4 life, draw four cards, put four +1/+1 counters on him, and he deals 4 damage to each opponent' at the start of each upkeep.

‘Big Brother 27' recap: Rachel becomes the No. 1 target in the 5th HOH competition
Heading into the fifth week of Big Brother 27, Rachel Reilly was feeling alone in the game because she'd lost her two closest allies, Jimmy Heagerty and Amy Bingham. The other side of the house had a numbers advantage going into the Head of Household competition, with Rachel's depleted team only including Ashley Hollis, Ava Pearl, and Will Williams. The self-described BB "queen" was about to become the No. 1 target in the HOH comp, so would she survive another week off the block? Read on for our recap of Big Brother Season 27, Episode 16, which aired Sunday, Aug. 10 on CBS. This season's theme is the "Summer of Mystery" and the house has been transformed into the Hotel Mystère, where secrets lurk behind every corner. The 13 players still in the running to win the $750,000 grand prize are: More from Gold Derby 'Big Brother 27' spoilers: Week 5 Veto meeting sparks tears, drama, and tough decisions ahead of eviction night 'Big Brother 27' spoilers: Here are all of the Week 5 prizes and punishments, from the Veto winner to the hard-boiled egg costume Ashley Hollis (25): Attorney from Chicago Ava Pearl (24): Aura painter from Long Island, N.Y. Katherine Woodman (23): Fine dining server from Gwinnett County, Ga. Keanu Soto (33): Dungeon Master from Miami Kelley Jorgensen (29): Web designer from Burbank, S.D. Lauren Domingue (22): Bridal consultant from Lafayette, La. Mickey Lee (35): Event curator from Jacksonville, Fla. Morgan Pope (33): Gamer from Palm Springs, Calif. Rachel Reilly (40): BB12 contestant and BB13 winner from Hoover, Ala. Rylie Jeffries (27): Professional bull rider from Luther, Okla. Vince Panaro (34): Unemployed from West Hills, Calif. Will Williams (50): College sports podcaster from Wallace, S.C. Zach Cornell (27): Marketing manager from Cartersville, Ga. We begin where the last episode left off, with Jimmy leaving the house by a 9-2 vote over Kelley. The two people who voted to keep Jimmy were Rachel and Ashley, though Ashley later tried to change her vote on live television. "No, no, no, no," declared host Julie Chen Moonves. As Rachel's allies were evicted one by one, she began to feel like an outcast in the Big Brother house. Thus, the impending HOH competition would be do-or-die for Rachel's game. Let's go! Successful(?) HOH Despite sending a player home that vowed he was never going to target her, Mickey was proud of her "successful" reign as HOH because she used her mystery power to keep herself off the block and got a big target out. It was hard for two-time player Rachel and other allies of Jimmy like Ashley and Will to understand Mickey's motivations. Ava was another potential vote to save Jimmy, but knew that the majority of the votes would be against him and so she stuck with the numbers as well. Everyone expected Rachel to vote to save Jimmy, but they didn't see a second one coming so naturally they wanted to know who cast it. The perception was that because Jimmy hugged Ashley on the way out that she was the second vote, but she was adamant to everyone that it wasn't. The only people that know she was the vote is Rachel (who convinced her in the hallway) and Will (who she admitted it to in the hallway and warned her it was the wrong decision). Will kept Ashley's secret when asked about it by Mickey and so they wondered if someone else cast the vote in order to frame Ashley. Yours Dearly, Ava Pearl As the eligible houseguests prepared for the next HOH comp, the unknown second vote made many of them feel like this was the week they needed to win while Rachel and Ashley both felt like their backs would be against the wall if they didn't earn the throne. In the "Jack the Dipper" knockout style comp, the players faced off two at a time to be the quickest to answer correctly about images of "Jack" dunking chips in dips. In the first round, Rylie eliminated Lauren then chose Zach and Kelley to face off next. In the second round, Zach eliminated Kelley then chose Morgan and Will to face off. In the third round, Will eliminated Morgan then chose Katherine and Vince to go next. In the fourth round, Vince eliminated Katherine then chose Ashley and Rachel to go head-to-head. In the fifth round, Rachel eliminated Ashley and chose Vince and Zach to go next. In the sixth round, Zach won again then brought Rachel back up to go against Keanu. In the seventh round, Rachel won again then brought Zach back up to go against Rylie. In the eighth round, Rylie eliminated Zach and brought Rachel and Will up to compete. In the ninth round, Will beat Rachel. In the tenth round, Ava beat Rylie, setting up a final round between Will and Ava. In the end, both wanted to win, but it was Will that chimed in way too early with an incorrect answer and so Ava was anointed the new Head of Household. Soap Opera Tears With the HOH key around her neck, Ava laid down her first rule that there'd be "no one-on-ones, I'll call you." That was a new approach for the player in charge and illuminated for the people on the opposing side of the house like Vince and Keanu that they'd have their work cut out from them to stay off the block. As soon as she could, Ava promised safety to Rachel and assured her that she has "nothing to worry about." She communicated similarly to Zach and Morgan, setting them at ease, and then named Vince, Keanu and Ashley to Mickey as her initial thoughts for noms. Ashley's name was a shock for Mickey to hear, but Ava insisted that the "chatty Catchy" can't be trusted. Not yet knowing that he's for sure on the chopping block this week, Vince approached Rachel to try to apologize for targeting her in the comp in the hopes that it would smooth things over so that Rachel puts in a good word for him with Ava, but Rachel saw right through Vince's "soap opera tears." After drying his eyes, Vince tried the same strategy with Will, including the water works, but the crying could not move the emotions of the guy that's already been nominated twice this season. Wanting to save Ashley from the block and hoping that Ava would go for stronger players, Will supported the idea of both Vince and Keanu up as nominations, but then named Zach as a better third option instead of Ashley. Due to her trust in both Will and Mickey, Ava took a second look at Zach and re-evaluated her personal desire to make Ashley vulnerable to eviction this week. At the nomination ceremony, Ava revealed her final decision for nominees as Keanu, Vince and Zach. She told the room that she picked the players that were "most shaken" by her winning HOH and said that it shows none of them trust her. Unlike Vince and Zach, Keanu was okay with going on the block again because it offers him a chance to four-peat as a Power of Veto winner. Zach was angry that Ava went back on her word, but felt assured that he'd remain safe this week because he still has the chance to buy his safety with the $10,000 prize/power he won earlier in the season.

‘Big Brother 27' spoilers: Here are all of the Week 5 prizes and punishments, from the Veto winner to the hard-boiled egg costume
Gold Derby is serving up spoilers all summer long. Read at your own risk! Ava Pearl, the quirky houseguest responsible for endless Season 27 memes, finally has some serious power in the game. And she's using it to go after her biggest threats. More from Gold Derby 'Big Brother 27' spoilers: Week 5 Veto meeting sparks tears, drama, and tough decisions ahead of eviction night 'Big Brother 27' recap: Rachel becomes the No. 1 target in the 5th HOH competition At the end of Sunday's episode, viewers discovered that the 24-year-old aura painter and hammock lover from New York City had nominated Keanu Soto, Vince Panaro, and Zach Cornell for eviction in Week 5. She was debating putting up Ashley Hollis, but Ava's close allies Mickey Lee and Will Williams were able to correctly convince her that Ashley was actually a number for their side. "I just picked the people who I felt were the most shaken by me winning HOH, because it shows me that you don't trust me," Ava said in her speech, referring specifically to Vince, who was scurrying around like a rodent with a mustache. "I love you all, seriously. I don't want anybody to leave. But that's why it's called Big Brother, not 'Squatter's Rights.'" For the record, this marks Keanu's fourth consecutive week on the block, and the first each for Vince and Zach. Soon after the nominations ceremony took place, the eligible players competed in the fifth Power of Veto competition in the backyard, where multiple prizes and punishments were unleashed into the house. First things first, the winner of the all-important Veto medallion was ... Katherine Woodman! Katherine is currently weighing her options about whether to shake up the game with the Veto. She's leaning toward not using the power, because that would keep Ava's noms the same and simultaneously guarantee safety for Katherine's showmance partner, Rylie Jeffries, as well as her bestie, Lauren Domingue. Two other prizes doled out during the Veto competition were a $5,000 check for Ava and a trip to London for Will. As for the three punishments, Vince has to dress up like a hard-boiled egg and slide around on a stool all week long, Keanu has to be the house's butler and cook for the other players, and Zach and Rachel have to spend an all-nighter together. Even though Katherine is holding the Power of Veto, she isn't the only person with a potentially game-changing advantage that could affect Ava's HOH reign. Remember, Zach won a $10,000 prize in Week 1 that allows him to buy his way off the block. If he does so, then the Head of Household will have to name a replacement nominee. Stay tuned to see what Zach decides to do with his power. The next episode of Big Brother 27 airs Wednesday, Aug. 13 on CBS.

‘Big Brother 27' spoilers: Week 5 Veto meeting sparks tears, drama, and tough decisions ahead of eviction night
Gold Derby is serving up spoilers all summer long. Read at your own risk! Ava Pearl's unapologetically chaotic reign as Head of Household is nearing its end, and let's just say, no one expected the 24-year-old aura painter's HOH tenure to be boring. Spoiler alert: it wasn't. It brought us tears, betrayals, and a whole lot of eye-roll-worthy dramatics. As you may already know, Katherine Woodman secured the Power of Veto. But in a classic move to keep things spicy — she chose not to use it. So, Zach Cornell, Vince Panaro, and Keanu Soto are all still getting cozy on the chopping block as we inch closer to Thursday's live eviction. More from Gold Derby Kathy Bates could make Emmy history as sole nominee for 'Matlock' 'Big Brother 27' spoilers: Here are all of the Week 5 prizes and punishments, from the Veto winner to the hard-boiled egg costume You might recall Vince's emotional breakdown on Sunday's episode, as he sulked to Rachel Reilly and Will Williams, who — shall we say — weren't particularly moved by the display. Fast forward to today, and it's Zach who's feeling the heat, and his decision not to use his $10,000 power to pull himself off the block is raising eyebrows. So, why leave himself vulnerable? Live feed fans are floating three possible reasons: 1) He's banking on winning the BB Blockbuster twist, 2) he's confident the votes are there to keep him over Vince or Keanu, or 3) he's taking one for the team — or, more specifically, for Morgan Pope — hoping to shield her from becoming the replacement nominee. If the live feeds are to be believed, it's door number three. Between some teary moments, Zach let Morgan in on his secret, confessing he had the power and chose not to use it to protect her from the block. It was a move that clearly struck a chord with Morgan, as she appeared legitimately touched by the gesture. So, with eviction day fast approaching, who's going home? The house seems split, as usual. If it's a Zach vs. Vince scenario, Zach looks to have the edge at the moment, thanks to support from Rachel, Will, Morgan, Ashley Hollis, and Kelley Jorgensen, who seem ready to send Vince out the door and back to his pre-jury couch at his parents' house. A Vince vs. Keanu showdown, however, is far less certain. The house is divided, and Katherine and Mickey Lee are emerging as key swing votes. If it comes down to Zach vs. Keanu, well, the decision may rest in the hands of Vince and Will. One way or another, it seems Thursday's eviction will invite its fair share of drama. If Keanu is the one to walk out, questions about whether the chaos of Ava's HOH was worth it are inevitable. If Zach or Vince goes, expect emotions to run high — as they always do. Stay tuned!
