I wanted to play aggressive since I thought I would get a bar very quickly since it’s early. Pretty funny I lost a game like that, great video!
-
Getting game over by a long waited line piece is a certified Tetris God moment.
-
This is why modern games also introduced the piece bag. That way there's no ridiculous piece droughts like what can happen in the fully-random NES Tetris.
-
Editing the possible moves was great. It really illustrated what you were describing.
-
After he loses, while the commentator is talking, his opponent gets 6 (SIX!) line pieces. The game just wants to watch the world burn.
-
>gets literally zero points in a final game >wins anyway absolute chad
-
This reminds me of Jon Bois’s search for the saddest punt of all time, and how most of the most depressing and unnecessary punts were committed by teams that went on to win that game
-
I think this showcases quite well why modern Tetris games uses 7 or 14 buckets instead of just preventing repeat pieces back to back.
-
Alex T is such a nice guy giving his opponent a 1 game handicap in the finals
-
That's basically real-life version of that Tetris God sketch.
-
bro is at both corners of the grid now
-
That drought is so beyond insane it's almost unbelievable
-
There's something unbelievably Chad about getting a goose egg and then winning the tournament anyway
-
Alex T now has the lowest and highest point record in Tetris. Fun facts!
-
As a lazy data analyst I commend your dedication to collecting this data and providing valuable commentary. You have my respect good sir.
-
Dammit. This was probably the only record I could achieve if I entered a tournament.
-
YouTube: "You will like old videos about competitive Tetris now." Me: "Yes. Ok. I understand."
-
lolol this was awesome. And despite thorough analysis of a terrible game, which could come off as mean-spirited -- it absolutely didn't. You balanced the good with the bad really well, as I would expect! Plus I'm sure Alex really doesn't give a shit either way lol Interested in the new channel!! I'm subbing right now :)
-
I remember a funny picture where the line from Tetris is chilling under the palm and drinking juice. That would be a perfect depiction of this game.
-
I'm a casual Tetris fan and have no interest in Classic, but I ADORE the way you cover this game and its competitive scene. You make me care so much about these players and competitions, and I love the breakdowns of strategy, possible moves, and the evolution of the scene. Bravo!
