Blind auditions[]
The show began with the Blind Auditions on September 19, 2022. In each audition, an artist sings their piece in front of the coaches whose chairs are facing the audience. If a coach is interested to work with the artist, they will press their button to face the artist. If a singular coach presses the button, the artist automatically becomes part of their team. If multiple coaches turn, they will compete for the artist, who will decide which team they will join. Each coach has one "block" to prevent another coach from getting an artist. This season, each coach ends up with 14 artists by the end of the blind auditions, creating a total of 56 artists advancing to the battles.[5]

Battles[]
The battles began airing on Monday, October 10, 2022. The advisors for this round were Jazmine Sullivan for Team Legend, Sean Paul for Team Gwen, Charlie Puth for Team Camila, and Jimmie Allen for Team Blake.
In this round, the coaches pit two of their artists in a singing match and then select one of them to advance to the next round. Losing artists may be "stolen" by another coach, becoming new members of their team, or can be saved by their coach, remaining a part of their original team. Multiple coaches can attempt to steal an artist, resulting in a competition for the artist, who will ultimately decide which team they will go to. Additionally, their original coach can compete for their artist if they attempt to save them.
At the end of this round, nine artists will remain on each team; seven will be battle winners, and one from a steal and a save, respectively. In total, 36 artists advance to the knockouts.
| Artist won the Battle and advanced to the Knockouts | |
| Artist lost the Battle, but was stolen by another coach, and, advanced to the Knockouts | |
| Artist lost the Battle, but was saved by their coach, and, advanced to Knockouts | |
| Artist lost the Battle and was eliminated |
