Super Výber
After castings, remaining 120 contestant entered to the Super Výber.
In the first round, the girls were called in groups of ten to sing acapella in front of the judges. Each girl had a few seconds to sing and after the entire group performed, they found out whether they were eliminated or they would continue in the next round.
The boys did not get to perform at all, the judges told them they all advanced to the next round, due to the smaller number of boys in the contest.
The next round took place at the same night. All contestants were divided into 2 groups, the first one went to perform songs of their choice in front of the judges. The second group did not perform because they had impressed the judges before.
After the first two rounds, 60 contestants made it to the second day.
On the next day, the contestants sang solo with an acoustic band.
The songs they had to perform were:
Billionaire - Bruno Mars, Travie McCoy
Diamonds - Rihanna
Raise Your Glass - P!nk
Something Just Like This - The Chainsmokers, Coldplay
Rockabye - Clean Bandit, Sean Paul, Anne Marie
Love Yourself - Justin Bieber
Use Somebody - Kings Of Leon
Treat You Better - Shawn Mendes
Radioactive - Imagine Dragons
Million Reasons - Lady Gaga
Shape Of You - Ed Sheeran
Words - Emma Drobná
After this round, 20 contestants were sent home.
In the last round, 40 best contestants sang in pairs, where either 1 or both contestants were eliminated, or in some cases, both got through.
Four contestants received a “wild card” from judges, which meant their immediate advancement to the semi-finals.
Those contestants were: Jakub Pružinský, Zuzana Chalupová, Dominik Gerda and Adéla Ferencová.
The last round was Dlouhá cesta/Dlhá cesta in which 16 contestants made it to the semi-finals, creating the top 20.
