GMMTV artists are invited to spectate as, in groups of four, the contestants perform "swag" songs. Between the two teams who deliver the best swag performances, a Best Beta is selected to challenge two Alphas for their seat. Four Betas from the weakest-performing teams are eliminated.

In the final episode, two Beta teams compete to make it into the second round where they'll compete with the Alphas. Joined by special judges Chin Chinawut, Gam the Star, Maiyarap and Ae Botcash, the eight finalists are scored individually by votes from the judges and viewers. The top four ascend to the Alpha seats. However, once a king's thrown is introduced, one seat is left free.
