FloorWax Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 This is two seasons late but I'm curious as to what the teams would have looked like had the format been normal KO and playoff rounds. I'll start with KO rounds (assuming they had the same song choices except TPTB could choose who to autotune) Team Adam: Rod vs Andrew J Mari vs Kalvin LB vs Domenic (LB saved) Kendra vs Celia (Kendra stolen by Kelly) Team Legend: Maelyn vs Jacob Beth vs Shawn (Beth saved) Julian vs Lisa Kayslin vs Jimmy Team Kelly Abby vs Rebecca (Abby stolen by Blake) Presley vs Karen Jej vs Matthew The Bundys vs Betsy (Betsy saved) Team Blake Kim vs Karly (Karly saved) Andrew S vs Selkii Gyth vs Carter (Carter stolen by Adam) Dexter vs Oliv (Oliv stolen by John) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Following that drill in Playoffs: TEAM ADAM PV: Rod, Carter CS: Domenic (Adam pretty much only saved Mari because Domenic had lost in the Cross Battles, but not in this scenario) TEAM LEGEND PV: Maelyn, Shawn CS: Beth TEAM KELLY PV: Jej, Rebecca CS: The Bundys TEAM BLAKE: PV: Gyth, Dexter CS: Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Carter got a PV in the playoffs but KOs over XBs could've changes that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archanium Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I doubt Selkii would have won against Andrew with that 'Torn' performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatthewPalermo Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Maelyn still would have won, and that's all I'd care about. Oh, and Beth would have made the T13. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would have paired Gyth/Dexter/Andrew/Carter against each other. Looking at the possibilities, season 16 had so much potential to be a good season.

Agreed. She would have already known who her partner was, and the whole thing wouldn´t have been so rushed. Nerves played a big part in the poor performances of the CB, and I remember Selkii admitted herself in an IG post that she was really nervous that night and it caused to give the performance that she gave. Note aside: Andrew S turned out to be a better live performer that most of the contestants that season, and he clearly has talent, but the Cross Battles helped him a ton. He would have probably been gone in the KOs on a normal season, especially on one that was filled with country artists like S16. Plus he was clearly Blake´s least favorite country guy at the beginning, he had his eyes on Gyth, and to a lesser extent, Dexter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorWax Posted April 27, 2020 Author Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) Semis would probably be: Team Adam: Rod Team Legend: Maelyn Shawn Team Kelly: Rebecca Presley Team Blake: Gyth Dexter Kim We'd probably get a Maelyn/Rebecca/Gyth/Dexter finale Edited April 27, 2020 by FloorWax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, the fact that would have been Team Adam eliminates that possibility. Adam wasn´t getting a finalist that season by any means, no matter how good his team was. And I do think he did a good job in S16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvin Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Jej would make Semis (Kelly would save him) and Kelly would save Matthew over Betsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOMZ Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) I think it would be like this Team Adam: Rod vs Celia (Celia still stolen by John) Kalvin vs Andrew J LB vs Domenic (Domenic saved) - LB won this Kendra vs Mari Team Legend: Maelyn vs Kayslin Julian vs Shawn (Julian saved) Beth vs Lisa (Beth stolen by Kelly) Jacob vs Jimmy Team Kelly Abby vs Rebecca (Abby stolen by Blake) Jej vs Karen The Bundys vs Matthew (The Bundys saved) Presley vs Betsy Team Blake Kim vs Selkii (Selkii saved) Dexter vs Carter (Stolen by Adam) Gyth vs Andrew S Karly vs Oliv -Blake likes to pair his steals Edited April 27, 2020 by JOMZ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly saves him to get into T13. I don't really think he'll make it to semis. He didn't seem to be all that popular with Minivan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VintageVoice Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 Team Adam: Rod vs Andrew J Mari vs Kalvin LB vs Domenic (Domenic saved) Kendra vs Celia (Kendra stolen by Kelly) Team Legend: Maelyn vs Jacob Julian vs Shawn Beth vs Lisa (Beth saved) Kayslin vs Jimmy Team Kelly Abby vs Rebecca (Abby stolen by Blake) Presley vs Karen Jej vs Matthew (Matthew saved) The Bundys vs Betsy Team Blake Kim vs Karly Oliv vs Selkii (Selkii saved) Gyth vs Carter (Carter stolen by Adam) Dexter vs Andrew Notes: I know this is basically a rehash of the original post with minor modifications, but I tried to leave my personal biases out of this and go by patterns I've seen in coach behavior along with what matchups would make sense. For the Country Crown on Team Blake, he favored Gyth and Dexter over the other two and as much as I wanted to pair the two together just to get rid of Gyth, I know there's no way that he/TPTB would've allowed that to go down; as for the steals and save, Blake's soft spot for Selkii can't be ignored and Carter is 300% up Adam's alley for steals (teenage boy and can do country/rock). Team Kelly features no "what are you thinking??" decision that she tends to make, but I stand by her keeping Matthew over anyone else if only as her counterpart to Shawn Sounds on Team Legend. Team Legend was tempting to switch Maelyn v. Jacob and Kayslin v. Jimmy to be Maelyn/Kayslin and Jacob/Jimmy, but I liked Kayslin more than either of the guys and couldn't justify throwing Beth under the bus for saving Kayslin in a Maelyn v. Kayslin matchup. Team Adam was pretty much how I could've seen the whole scenario going save for Domenic winning over LB; after rewatching their Cross Battles, LB's performance was just a smidge ahead of Domenic for me but Adam getting rid of Domenic before the playoffs would've incited an online meltdown.

Your Team Blake pairings do make more sense than mine, but who does John steal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the losers I listed, I'm torn between giving Betsy back to him and sending Kalvin his way; based on the rest of his team and given his bias against people touching his songs and Kalvin doing a John Legend song in his BA, I'm going to pick Betsy as his steal.
