Free Agents

Free Agents is the 1st season of SA Reality Series, which premiered on April 21st, 2020 and concluded with the Final Challenge on June 1st, 2020.

This format closely follows that of MTV's The Challenge: Free Agents, where players are randomly split into teams or left as individuals and are then made to compete for safety, with the winning team or player voting for any other player to face Elimination and with the losing teams or players facing The Draw where one person will pull the Kill Card and be forced to also face Elimination, with the loser of the two going home.

Production
Free Agents was announced as the first season of SA Reality Series on April 17th, 2020 with the opening of applications. Applications closed 3 days later on April 20th, 2020, with the cast being announced the next day with the Cast Reveal & Premiere on April 21st, 2020.

Format
The game begins with 24 players, fighting for their shot at $25 cold hard cash along with 2 gifts on https://tengaged.com.

Each round, players are either randomly or via schoolyard pick divided into duos, teams, or left as individuals and compete in a Challenge to determine their safety. The team that places first in the Challenge has the responsibility of automatically voting any other player into Elimination. A pre-determined amount of teams who do the worst (i.e. worst 3 of 10 duos or worst 5 of 15 individuals) will be sent to The Draw. In The Draw, each player one at a time will pull a card to determine whether or not they will be facing the person sent in by the winners in Elimination. There will be all Safe Cards aside from the one Kill Card, which will send the person who draws it into Elimination.

After two people are chosen for Elimination, one Elimination game is chosen at random. These are hidden and only the category is known until the game is played. The categories consisted of Speed, Puzzle, Betting, Luck, and Strategy. The winner of the Elimination is safe and may return to the game and live to fight another day, with the loser being eliminated with no chance of winning.

When only a few people are remaining, a Final Challenge will determine the winner of Free Agents!
