Tournament Structure
The first round consists of a "Battle Royale" with the 5 non-substitute members of the teams all submitting one combo each to a Collaboration Video that is edited by one of the team members. This round is judged on the Duet category, and the rankings compiled so that the top 8 teams pass to the next round.
For the remaining 3 rounds, single elimination matches are made where 3 themes are picked at random from the 6 main themes, and a duet theme of two spinners is present every round. The Duet is worth 2 points, and the remaining categories worth 1 point. The team that wins the most points between the 4 battles proceeds to the next round until a champion is determined.
