Do you think the American version will ever include the Double-Battle?

dryedmangoez:
A Double Battle at the start of a Leg is much better than forced staggered start times at least.

cbacbacba1:
Hell no to this idea!
I don't like mid-leg bunching at all.

Furthermore, it nearly certain leads to the death of the losing team, which is even worse than the u-turn

Start times are based n Arrival at Mat times, they aren't forced, they continue to recognize and maintain the finish/arrival order...at least until airport bunching.

G.B.:
I think that both the Intersection and Face Off can work if they are placed smartly. There are times when production knows with certainty that all teams will get bunched up, so it's good to place one right after that. The Intersection in Madagascar was good because it was obvious everyone would be on the same flight from Mauritius. The one in Poland was NOT smart and remains as one of the dumbest things TAR has EVER done.

There could even be a contingency. If a team is waiting for too long without anyone showing up, they can skip the task, and whoever is showing up really late will have to wait a penalty or do a different, hard task.

Declive:
Now, what does everyone thinks?

I don't like it. As the firefighters said on the last episode, after winning the last race:  "you were the better team today"

So if they were the worst team that day, they should've gone home! The twist gives too much chance. I didn't like it.
