#Watch All 6 Powerhouse Moments From Night 1 (VIDEO)

Season 20 of The Voice has officially begun its Battle Rounds, pitting competitors from the same teams against one another for a chance to move onto the Knockouts.

Along with forcing coaches Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, Nick Jonas, and Blake Shelton to make tough decisions, the experts also welcome their advisers aboard for the second tier of the competition. Darren Criss (Team Nick), Brandy (Team Legend), Luis Fonsi (Team Kelly), and Dan + Shay (Team Blake) are more than ready to offer their expertise as the pressure mounts for this season’s hopefuls.

Plus, in surprise twist of events, Kelly, who’s not feeling well, gives up her seat to Kelsea Ballerini, though she communicates through video chat and text. It does leave Kelsea, though, to make decisions for the team. Below, see if she made the right choices, and watch the night’s show-stopping Battle performances.
