Out of the 4 Semifinalists with the lowest chances to make finale (Sorelle, Ray, Gina, D Smooth), how would you rank their finale chances?

I can see why people might think he’s not going to win, but he really doesn’t have much competition for a finale spot based on the other contestants, not to mention only three artists are getting eliminated.

Yeah, that format was terrible. At least with that format, playoffs weren’t prerecorded so you got an extra voting round. Good point, since I do like the suspense of the Semis. And yes, I dislike the playoff pass because it creates an uneven amount of performances.

Yeah, Chloe would be there too. The Blinds weren’t that strong this season for sure. First Knockout episode wasn’t great either. It doesn’t help that this might be the worst format the show had had

I’d definitely have Cait higher and Mariah a bit lower. I agree that Kason and Ray had two of the weakest Blinds this season. Also, if you haven’t seen Kason’s battle performance, it’s no better than his audition

Look who got featured in this video

If it doesn’t happen and Holly wins this season, I would be on board.

I have no clue how Chance has never heard Rachel’s song. I am quite a few years younger than him and have heard it casually many times.

Neil isn’t eliminated in Knockouts though.

1. Holly Brand. One of my favorite singers in the competition 2. Yes

Also, since we didn’t have Grace vs Neil leaked, I hope we get a Team Blake leak next week for playoffs instead of Team Chance

I think Rachel’s blind is still my favorite performance from her

5. This was a very lopsided battle for me. I felt that Holly really overpowered Katie here. I would place it a bit lower personally, since I felt it was uneven. However, Holly had my favorite individual performance of the round, and she is one of my favorite contestants this season. Go watch her Knockout if you haven’t seen it yet 4. This would be a bit lower for me as well. I really liked EJ here and felt that he improved from his audition. I didn’t like Tasha as much as her audition however. I would have picked EJ but I’m glad there was a steal here. 3. A great battle of one of Adele’s best songs. Both stepped it up from her audition. I would pick Manasseh because I felt she was much stronger but Sorelle showed a lot of potential here as well. I think both were worthy of advancing. 2. Another battle I really like. Mary Kate improved a lot from her audition, and it was great to see a performance where she was more comfortable. I would have picked her here, mainly because I was more drawn to her tone, and that’s what really sticks out to me about Mary Kate. I’m glad she got the playoff pass 1. The battle I wanted to be your number 1 is your number 1! I loved this battle so much. This was a very magical battle, and Gina and Kala worked very well together. I enjoyed both Gina and Kala in the Blind Auditions, but they were so equal here. Gina’s tone is amazing and Kala can do a lot vocally as well. If I were one of the other coaches, I would have been quickly to steal the loser. Watch their reaction to the battle on Kala’s YouTube channel, especially since you can see how close they’ve gotten

Is it a stretch to call Holly my favorite country female of all time? I really wouldn’t mind her winning this season

Holly was fantastic. Really solidifying herself as one of the best contestants this season

Holly was fantastic, but are we really surprised? It was a different side than what she has shown in the past, and she did great with it. I really like contestants that show different sides of themselves and I didn’t know Holly could yodel like that. Definitely one of my favorite singers in the competition, honestly would be happy to see her win at this point Rachel also did a very solid job with a great song and I’m happy she got stolen. Holly is a very tough opponent for anyone. Team Kelly was so good this round!

Twitter users are being charged $8 monthly to keep blue checkmarks, and a lot of celebrities are not happy. I don’t think they can tbh. It’s not a good change for the platform when people are verified based on how much they are willing to pay for it

That would be rough for sure. The silver lining to that would be that we wouldn’t have to search as hard for an upload of an eliminated contestant’s KO

I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to get a country leak this much

I don’t think that counts. This is just the first episode I can remember where I’m most excited for the country contestants.

Yeah, I thought Episode 4 was a very weak Blinds episode I don’t really disagree with anything here. Though if you don’t like Kate much here, her other performances weren’t as good as this. Also, I agree that this was not a good song choice for Mary Kate, and I think she got a much better song choice in the battles.

@jarmon when should we expect the last group of battles?

When are the battle rankings going to be posted

Yeah, it’s a good battle, but not in my Top 5 of all time.

I liked Blaine more too
