Step 2: « Las Batallas » (The Battles)

edit

The Battle Round was taped in early October 2012 and was aired from 24 October to 7 November 2012 in three telecasts. Coaches begin narrowing down the playing field by training the contestants with the help of "trusted advisors". This round features twenty-eight battles consisting of pairings from within each team, and each battle concluding with the respective coach eliminating one of the two contestants. After the battles, each coach is left with seven contestants; each coach saves five of these to advance to the live shows, whereas the two remaining singers do a sing-off for the remaining live show spot. Thus, six contestants for each coach advance to the live shows.

The trusted advisors for these episodes are: Luis Fonsi working with David Bisbal, Antonio Carmona working with Rosario Flores, Tiziano Ferro working with Malú and Nek working with Melendi.[5]

Step 3: « Los Directos » (Live Shows)

edit

Five Live Shows will be aired from 21 November to 19 December 2012. The first live show was scheduled for 14 November 2012, but it was postponed one week due to a general strike in Spain and replaced by a special best moments episode.[6]

Public televoting begins at this point, with one candidate eliminated from each team in the first two live shows. Voting lines open during the broadcast of each live show. The first half of each team performs in the first Live Show, the second half in the second Live Show. In these first two shows, in each team, one contestant is automatically sent to the next round thanks to the votes of the audience, and the coach chooses one of the other two contestants to stay. After the first two shows, 16 singers remain (4 from each team) and perform in the third show; in each team one contestant is saved by the public and another one by the team's coach.[7] In the semi-final, the 8 remaining contestants perform (2 from each team); one finalist is chosen for each team in a decision where both the team's coach and the public voting weight equally. In the final, public voting decides the winner between the 4 remaining contestants (one from each team).
