Battles

Coaches begin narrowing down their teams by training the contestants with the help of "trusted advisors". Each episode featured seven battles and each battle concluding with the respective coach selecting one winner out of the two or three contestants; the seven winners for each coach advanced to the live shows. In a special wildcard round the coach had to choose two of his team that lost in the battle round of which the public would vote for one to advance to the live shows as the final contestant.
