"Before the Battle" features Dave Navarro acting as judge and host, along with "Ink Master" legends; world-renowned tattoo artists Chris Nuñez and Oliver Peck. In the video, season 11 coaches and two of the show's most notorious artists--Christian Buckingham and Cleen Rock one--battle head to head in a 'tattoo-off', hoping to establish who the power player will be going into the show.

Produced by Truly Original, Paramount Network's hit original unscripted-series "Ink Master" returns for its 11th season Tuesday, August 28th at 10pm ET/PT.

Paramount Network gets under viewers' skin with "Ink Master," the network's hit tattoo competition reality series. Some of the nation's top tattoo artists battle it out in permanent ink for a $100,000 cash prize, an editorial feature in Inked and the title of 'Ink Master.'

"Ink Master" contestants compete in various tattoo challenges that not only test the artists' technical skills, but also their on-the-spot creativity, where they must create and execute an original tattoo on command. Challenges focus on different tattooing techniques, such as shading, line and proportion, and styles including photorealism, Tribal, American traditional, and pin-up. The series is produced by Truly Original.
