The Voiceis refreshing its format for season 29, calledThe Voice: Battle of Champions.
For the new installment, there are three coaches instead of the usual four, and each coach will have 10 artists on their teams. In another twist, the competition will feature four rounds.
For the Blind Auditions, the coaches will go head-to-head in a Triple Turn Competition, where they will try to earn the most three-chair turns. The winner will gain "a special advantage in the next round," according toNBC Insider.
During the Battles, the coach with the most three-chair turns will be awarded a Super Steal, a power that can be used once and overrides the other coaches' attempts.
The Knockouts round will feature an "in-season all-star competition," with the coaches recruiting two performers from their teams in previous seasons.
The show will conclude with a Top 9 semifinal, leading to a Top 4 finale, where for the first time, "a new voting block comprised of super fans and pastVoiceartists will be involved."
