* LuckBasedMission: The "Spin It to Win It" tournament in 2024 pits 16 chefs against each other over five episodes. At the start of each episode, Ted spins one wheel to choose the new chefs who will compete that day (four in the first episode, three in all others). In each round, the chefs are given a basket with only three mystery ingredients and Ted spins another wheel to choose the fourth one and decide how much money will be added to the jackpot. Higher values are paired with tougher ingredients. The winner of each episode faces three new challengers in the next, and the winner of the last episode takes home the entire jackpot.
