The contestants are initially grouped into four teams named after playing card suites: Team Hearts, Team Clubs, Team Spades, and Team Diamonds. After enough discards, the remaining teams were pooled together into two teams: Black and Red. In Season 1, Team Black consisted of Drummer Boy, Dragon Huntress, The Candle, Holy Roller, and Rosa Loteria. Red Team consisted of Curveball, Earth Witch, Stuntman, Tiffani, and Jade Blossom. A group of discarded contestants went to Egypt to stop the genocide on jokers by the Caliphate. This led to the formation of the Committee.
