not deployed a single chair immediately leaves the stage, but in the ninth, this is canceled. In season 9, a "block" is introduced: a coach has the right to "block" one of the other coaches once in the entire duration of the blind auditions, that is, to prevent one coach from getting an artist into his/her team. Starting from season 11, the block button was removed. The coach divides 14 members of his team into 7 duets, which will fight for further participation in the show. He provides each duet with a composition for performance, which will be performed in a special "vocal ring". After the duo's performance, each coach listens to the opinions of other mentors and chooses the winner of the battle. The loser is eliminated from the show. Starting from season 3, coaches have the opportunity to "steal" one participant from another team who lost a battle, saving him from being kicked out of the show. From season 7, a new rule is added - the steal room. This was first adopted in the seventh season of The Voice of Holland. If the mentor "stole" one of the participants, then he goes to a special room, in which he sits on a chair corresponding to the mentor who "stole" him. If then the same mentor saves another participant, then the one currently seated gives him a seat on the chair and is eventually eliminated. At the end of this stage, each of the teams, starting from season 3, remains 8 participants - seven point winners and one rescued participant from the other team (32 participants in total). In seasons 1 and 2, 7 participants remained in the teams. From season 7, 9 members remain. In season 3, a new stage appeared - "Super Battles" ("Knockouts"). The participants who remained after the vocal battles are distributed by the mentor into pairs (4 pairs from each team). At this stage, the participants themselves choose the compositions with which they will fight for participation in live broadcasts. Also, in each pair, the participants perform separately, in turn. In each knockout, the mentor determines the winner - the artist who will perform live - and the loser - the participant who will leave the show. Starting from season 6, the trainer does not divide the participants into pairs, but “chairs” are introduced. After the participant's performance, the mentor either offers to
