The Grenade is a twist introduced during Vendettas. Grenades may be used by players to give themselves a significant advantage while also giving their opponents a significant disadvantage.
Twist History[]
Vendettas[]
Following every elimination in the Ring, the winner will earn the option of choosing one of three Grenades. The Grenade must be selected at the start of the following challenge and will grant the holder a significant advantage, while giving one of their opponents a significant disadvantage. Grenades may not be used on members of the previous Troika. Grenades were also featured in the Final Challenge during the "Decked Out" checkpoint in which the finalists had to face Mercenaries in a game of higher or lower.
