For 16 hours, contestants had to remain alert for the word THROW. The first player to respond with CATCH earned the opportunity to take a life from an opposing team. With only three lives per team, every catch mattered. Shmevo absolutely DOMINATED the challenge, proving to be a force to be reckoned with and helping secure Team Orange's place in the very first Tribunal!

This time, Keithnewbern and LKS3099 found themselves in a heated confrontation, adding even more fuel to an already explosive first episode. But when the votes were counted, the house had made its decision. As the eliminations are INDIVIDUAL, each player voted in a single player to verse one of the players from team white. This was dougribeiro receiving 6 votes. dougribeiro then decide to call out goomybear to verse in the elimination. ⚔️ THE ELIMINATION ARENA — KOVAZE WORDSEARCH GOOMYBEAR 🆚 DOUG Two players entered the arena to verse head to head in a Kovaze wordsearch.
