Blind auditions
The blind auditions were aired on 8, 15, 22 and 29 December 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 further work with the artist, they press their button to face the contestant. If a singular coach presses the button, the artist automatically becomes part of their team, and if multiple coaches turn they will compete for the artist, who will decide which team they will join. The artists who qualified for the battles round from each show are shown below.
The battles shows were aired on 31 December 2022 and 5 January 2023. In this round, the coaches pick two of their artists to compete in a singing match and select one of them to advance to the next round. Losing artists may be stolen by another coach, becoming new members of their 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. Every coach stole two eliminated artists: Ana Vashakmadze and Mariam Toronjadze were stolen by Sopo Toroshelidze, Mariam Kokeladze and Nini Alisiani were stolen by Stephane Mgebrishvili, Ani Nozadze and Kakha Aslamazashvili were stolen by Dato Evgenidze, and Ekaterine Mdivani and Tako Kakalashvili were stolen by Dato Porchkhidze.
