Note: Bold names are recipients of the 'super pass'. |
Same as the previous season, in the blind auditions (Provas Cegas), each coach was given two superblocks to use and prevent another coach from pitching for the artist. The superblock buttons could be used at any time until the artist has finished their audition. Additionally, each coach could use one 'super pass', which defaults the artist to their team and sends the artist directly to the live shows (Galas em Direto). At the end of the round, Nininho and Cuca did not use either of their two superblocks.
