The Global Challenge: Stylish Saviors

**Stylish Saviors** is the tenth season played of The Global Challenge Series and the first season of Era 3. The premiere of the season was March 25th, and ended on April 25th, 2022.

30 players in duos were flown down to Pokhara, Nepal They will be competing for their share of the prize money pool of $250,000 and the title of Challenge Champions.

### Format

At the start of each cycle, the duos will be required to do two things. They must first complete in the daily challenge, obviously. The duo that wins (called the Saviors) will earn power and safety for the cycle, the losers head straight to elimination. Secondly, both partners must agree to save another duo. If a duo wins the daily challenge, the duo they save will be granted secret immunity (the **Tao Mandalas**) unless that duo loses the daily challenge. If that were to happen, the duo who gets second to last in the daily will enter elimination instead of the losers. If that were to happen, the saved duo will also be safe from the house vote. The duo who holds the Tao Mandalas will also be told they hold the Tao Mandalas.

Everyone except the daily winner and the duo in elimination will be allowed to vote separately for another duo they would like to see in elimination. The duo with the most votes will be announced, but may not enter elimination with the daily losers. If the duo who has the most votes has been given the **Tao Mandalas** by the Saviors, the duo with the second most votes will enter elimination. The two duos will then face off in an elimination challenge, where the winners will return the game and the losers will leave empty handed.

At some point, the remaining duos will compete in the final challenge, where the winning pair will be crowned challenged champions!

### Twists

* **Proper Placement**: As opposed to any quitters/dq's placing where they were eliminated, they instantly get a last place, potentially higher based on what order they quit

* **Tough Luck**: In the event a team tied in a challenge, getting DQ's or failing a challenge, all teams with the same score would be sent into elimination along with the house vote.

* **Legacy Curse**: If an elimination has a tie, the tiebreaker would be the next daily challenge. This means that nobody would be eliminated at the Khela, but at the next challenge

* **Chained Purge**: In episode 5 there was a chain purge. In part 1 of the purge, the top 2 duos get to compete for safety and Tao Mandalas. They then gift 2 teams the Tao Mandalas. All remaining teams then compete in a second part, where the worst performing team is purged out of the game

* **Reformed Final**: For the first time in the series, the final did not feature counting.
