The segment Duet with Me from the Philippine variety show Studio 7 features battles against two singers performing a duet with an artist. The winner will automatically advance to the top 64 preliminary round of The Clash.[1]

Originally, the 12 winners of Duet with Me, a segment of the musical variety show Studio 7, automatically advances to the first round except Remy Luntayao and Krezia Mae Toñaco withdrew the competition before the final auditions of the remaining top 52 clashers selected by vocal coach Jai Sabas-Aracama; songwriter, music producer, and South Border lead vocalist Jay Durias; and TV director Bert de Leon.[2] Jeniffer Maravilla and Pamela Quidol, who both battled and lost to Luntayao and Toñaco respectively, are brought back by the show to replace them and join the Top 64.

The 64 clashers were electronically paired to battle it out in a singing duel with the winner advancing to the next round. A wild card round was announced in the tenth episode after the judges chose to eliminate the selected clasher and it's opponent during their battle in Round 2.[3] The judges selects two of the temporarily eliminated clashers from round two to compete for the sixteenth seat for the third round.

Like the first season, the randomizer electronically select one clasher that will choose his/her opponent per round. The selected clashers corresponding to the color of their seats (black or white) will challenge their opponent according to the opposite color.

Meanwhile, the chosen opponent decides who to sing first. After their performance, the clash panel selects who will advance to the next round and will stay on top of the clash. They need to get at least majority of the panel's votes. The second season introduces the "Clasher Save" where the singer who are challenged to fight will be given an option to have his/her team save him/her from the battle. The advantage will be used once in each team before the clasher was selected for the second time.

On this round, the clashers are paired. Marlon Ejeda was selected by the randomizer to move the three clashers in his team to fill in the spots for the Black Team. The randomizer then select one clasher that will choose his/her partner from the opposite team for a duet while the selected partner each take turns to compose the pairs. Below is the groupings selection. Italicized names are those electronically selected.

For each set, a pair will be chosen electronically that will choose their opponent pair. After the performance, the clash panel will vote for a pair that will advance on the next round. For the losing pair, they will compete on each other in Matira ang Matibay round and only one will remain, still subject for the votes of the clash panel. This season introduces the "Clash" or "Pass" advantage where the challenged pair will either proceed or opt the opppent pair's challenge for one battle but if the pair choose the latter option, they will automatically competete against another pair selected by the randomizer in the next battle.
