The Gauntlet is a "comedy gamer competition" put on by Rooster Teeth (Red vs. Blue, Achievement Hunter), Verizon, and a variety of YouTube personalities including Freddie Wong and iJustine. This, the second season of the show, includes four groups from Rooster Teeth, Achievement Hunter, YouTube, and one group of gaming finalists that have earned their way into the competition through tryout rounds at RTX.

Rooster Teeth’s very own Burnie Burns hosts the series along with his new co-host, the diabolical Joel Heyman (Red vs. Blue). The two preside over the competition on a brand-new set with an all-new line-up of games, as well as some unexpected and hilarious challenges.

New episodes of The Gauntlet will be live every Sunday at 8PM ET / 5PM PT through November 24.

The show features a number of elimination challenges that will ultimately determine the winner. The first episode aired this past Sunday at 8PM on both Roosterteeth.com and Blip.com. The first actual competition video from Season 2 can be found above. There were two earlier videos that were mere comedic filler but are well worth the watch. Check those out at either Rooster Teeth or Blip.
