Invincibility

Invincibility, also called immunity, is the state of being immune from elimination. It is usually earned by completing a challenge better than the team/contestants. If the teams are still banded, then the whole team wins invincibility. If the teams are merged, the invincibility only goes to one or more people.

Team Invincibility
Mostly, invincibility is obtained by a person, more than one person, or a team for completing their challenge(s) first, or by doing better than the other team. This may also lead to them winning a prize for their entire team.

Individual Invincibility
After the teams split in No Pain, No Game, Dial M for Merger, Niagara Brawls, Grand Chef Auto, and You Regatta Be Kidding Me, Chris tells the contestants that the competition will have contestants only looking out for themselves. Thus, solo invincibility came into play. Everything from team invincibility tied in with this. The only difference was in winning solo invincibility, only the person that won it would be immune from being voted off and/or eliminated.
