== Format ==
After a Purge in Episode 1 eliminates two of the new faces, 6 returning players from the first season compete to decide the order in which they will pick their teams for the season. Each team will participate in numerous challenges followed by an elimination round known as the "Killing Floor". The winners of the challenge will be safe from elimination. The winners will choose a team to face off against the last-place team of the day in an elimination to stay in the game.
===Twists===
*Team Swap: In Episode 6, Sally revealed to the cast that the teams of 4 will be splitting into pairs if they weren't already in a pairing.
*Solo Eliminations: Also in Episode 6, Anya revealed that eliminations for the remaining of the season would be solo, Odd vs Odd and Even vs Even. The two winners of elimination will the join together as a potentially new pair.

Notes
* In Episode 2, an error with the Odd to Even ratio resulted in DaVonne & Dominic switching teams.
**DaVonne switched from Evens to Odds and Dominic switched from Odds to Evens.
* Following the elimination in Episode 7; Production discovered that Maddie U. had been leaking information about the season to an outside source, disqualifying her from the season. Due to Frank being without a partner, the most recently eliminated "Odd" was brought in as his replacement partner.
