At the 2022 CTWC, over 100 Classic Tetris pros gathered at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo to vie for 48 seeds. Qualifying consisted of 2 hour attempts where players would try to rack up as many great scores as possible. In a 48-seed bracket, the Top 16 seeds earn a bye out of Round 0, while the bottom 32-seeds compete for a spot in Round 1.

In the 1990 Nintendo World Championship competition, Tetris was the game to beat. The winner, Thor Aackerlund, is still seen by many as the best to have ever played. Today’s Classic Tetris tournaments are played on that same version of Nintendo Tetris, using original NES game systems, controllers, and Tetris cartridges. In 2009, a player named Harry Hong became the first to achieve the highest possible score of 999,999 points. Inspired by this achievement, filmmaker Adam Cornelius produced a short film about Harry called “Max-Out”, and launched a Kickstarter campaign to document the world of competitive Tetris. As word of Adam’s Kickstarter campaign spread, rumors of max-out scores from other Tetris Masters began to surface, threatening the supremacy of Harry’s achievement. With the help of Nintendo World Championship veteran Robin Mihara, Adam searched for all of the Tetris Masters he could find. Jonas Neubauer emerged as an early max-out artist, along with the elusive original champ Thor Aackerlund. The idea of bringing these and other NES Tetris Masters together to compete in a live tournament became an obvious and irresistible proposition which was artfully captured in the 2010 feature length documentary Ecstasy of Order: The Tetris Masters. Under the leadership of producer Vince Clemente, The Classic Tetris World Championship is currently held at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, an annual event which has hosted the tournament since 2012. Chuck Van Pelt and his organizing committee have built the PRGE into the largest classic gaming expo in the country, drawing around 10,000 attendees. Every year the scores get higher. Rivalries are revisited once again, and new players emerge to challenge the old guard. Over 100 players have maxed out the score now. Will you be the next? ecstasyoforder.com thectwc.com - Hry
I realize maxouts really aren’t what they used to be but maxing out on that stage in matchplay might just be the best tetris moment I’ve ever experienced.
It was truly surreal to play on the stage that I had been dreaming of for years.
You are a once in a generation DAS talent FEELSSTRONG
1:46:08 what a way to avenge your 2020 Group B set
You played excellent my son
I had a blast playing in my match! I didn’t perform as well as I’d like but making it in the gold bracket when I came to commentate is huge. I look forward to you all hearing my voice over the next couple of videos!
So excited to hear your commentary!
I was so rooting for you! That L-piece tuck in the second match almost made it :)
You definitely have talent in commentating! And glad to see of one of the very few DAS players in the Gold bracket.
it was an honor to play you, honestly. you are an amazing player and a great member of the community!
DAS is not dead 👍
It was such an honor to even make it into what has become such a competitive tournament. That along with being on the main stage, with Chris Tang doing commentary was all bucket list for me since watching live for the first time in 2019. That match was seriously some of the most fun I've had in my life. I can't wait to come back!
RAHHH
You smashed it dude gg
First game of Round 0 had higher scores than the games in the 2016 CTWC Finals.
plenty of the first round games were higher than any final up to 2019 lol
You needed a Maxout to qualify for the tournament.
There were 3 players that had a Maxout in qualifying that didn't make the Top 48
Watching Tugi reverse sweep a roller is satisfying as fuck holy shit.
easily the best weekend of my life. thanks so much to everyone, the organizers- the people there- the people watching, and the whole Tetris community as a whole for changing my life forever :)
Helleo
Rough result for Cheez. Will forever be a fan of him no matter what tho
It's so fucking amazing that we have the chance to watch this event live again! Also, the game has evolved to a point where the round 0 has better scores than 2016/2015 finals. So great!
Loved the Red Shurt's reaction on 1:11:09 - truly friendly competition.
Logged on just to say that Opaux-Redshurt match was STRAIGHT FIRE 50:23
27:40 THAT DIGGING BY CHEESE WAS SO GOOD OH MY GOD
LET'S GO TUGI!
TUGI SUCKS!
TUGI SUCKS!
Lmao two replies and both censored i wonder why
TUGI SUCKS
1:38:56 NOOO NOT THE FIST BUMP HAND SHAKE.
I love watching DAS being able to compete against rolling! Go Sharky!
The commentator said Sharky went only to commentate and ended up playing in the tournament. Laine Hardy went only to play guitar for his girlfriend's audition and ended up winning the American Idol.
@@Plamkata69 lol that is true. I only went to commentate 😊everything else was bonus
The exodia technique: DAS through to Lvl 19, Hyper tap 19-29, Roll 29+.
would love to see it in the next few years. love the content.
58:07 that stellar T-spin on the left from Marq tho
As someone who didn't know that tetris tournmants still exist is really awesome to watch
Round 4 between Ella and Tugi...
They commented over it, but Ella had a tall stack of swiss cheese and pulled off an amazing dig. Somebody, I thought, aught to call out some props for her.
I absolutely love the respect the community and players have in these events.
I don't blame Opaux being upset at that game 4 loss. I'd been furious too
I felt Opaux. That happened to me when I lost in Baseball Stars to my older brother when I was 11 and I threw my controller through the coffee table. Bad beat after a huge pitching performance. Only silver lining was that my brother didn’t taunt me after that. He saw a wrath.
Haven’t played Tetris in like 20 years had no idea about this
Nolan with the closest maxout, 67 points above a million, cool! :) Marc, supi gespielt, du warst immerhin im Hauptfeld! Nächstes Jahr holst du dir den Pott. :)
I got to watch this stream live. One of the best moments in my life! Even right now I'm smiling just thinking of it.
I so hope that one day I'll get to see CTWC in person. (though I live on kinda the opposite side of the planet)
Haven't watched Tetris for a while, really since the last World champs - the rolling technique is so strange and unique! Obviously works though!!
i dont understand what the benefit of it is? Pls explain :D
incredible, never thought id audibly cheer for people on tetris. hahah
Yeah! It really gets you sucked in
1:09:50 Both commentators say "Boom! Tetris for Opaux!"
I loved red shurts match, does anyone know if he streams or has social media, his piece knowledge/awareness seemed godlike the whole time
if u cant wait to see remain parts of the 2022 ctwc event, the whole livestream is on twitch, warning that if u go there it show u all results
Who won
Legend has it that the CTWC is _still_ looking for "Blank".
Don't you mean "_____"
All we could find was a skateboard
stupid question: is this Elle the same player as Trapzone?
Yes!
yes that’s me :) trapzone is online name and elle is my name!
WERE BACK BABY!!!!!! I've been waiting all year for this - as someone who lives in Portland and wanted to compete I was hoping that it wasn't $50 entry. OUCH.
Elle's like this year's greantea with all her facial reactions
For the algorithm. ✊
Не понял где Yuri the professional 💪😁
Damn, those commentators put a lot of wheight on Cheez. The inventor of the "new" Tetris and teaching all others how to do it. Cheez did great though.
wait... YOU INVENTED ZZ-CT tetris and cubing.????
can someone explain the way they are playing with the gloved hand tapping their controller on the back?
That's how they play now. it's called rolling. You don't push the buttons but you keep the fingers on the buttons and roll with the other hand on the back of the controller. So this way you can push the buttons much faster.
Learn more about Rolling from aGameScout. Here's the video

@@Plamkata69 thanks!
No use CZcams or google
What happened to Joseph?
Guess the old guard are dead
Where is Koryan? :(((
None of the Japanese players were able to make it out this year
@@ITZsharky1 thanks Sharky for the feedback.
Damn Cheez eliminated
Why so many players called to stage, did they go home and give a bye?
There were 2 other matches being played on the side stage.
Why are most people wearing gloves ? and why do these guys have such eccentric styles for holding the controller 😂
The Gloves reduce friction between the hand and controller.
It is a technique called Rolling.
aGameScout explains it in his video
czcams.com/video/n-BZ5-Q48lE/video.html
1:10:30 what a finish to a round - game at the top (Opaux and Red Shurt)
Where was Joseph?
Joseph Saelee was busy with college.
Easily the most epic R0 ever.
Cheez out, 2 nailbiters sending Opaux out and countless maxouts, including one with DAS, putting Tugi as a representant of the so-called-dead playstyle in the top 32!
what? ppl are casually maxing out on round 0, playing post-killscreen, and getting absolutely no reactions?
Deja vu
tugo
Sharky's voice comes in on the commentary - Jumps with Joy!
❤
Why do players make that hand gesture?
Are you talking about the way they hold the controller?
@@wingfryer yes
@@dokkill It is a technique called Rolling.
aGameScout explains it in his video
czcams.com/video/n-BZ5-Q48lE/video.html
I have seen so many "tetris" tournament videos... what is intersting is, there are no female players in the final rounds.. Is this a gender biased game considering there is no physical elements?..
Cheez did not have good form these days
cheez would kick your ass
Why is their right hand always twitching?looks ridiculous💩
I have no idea who any of the players are lol I miss the old days minus Jonas winning every year the only thing that hasn’t changed is the cringe commentary and the one guy sounds stuffy as hell
Sharky is a lousy player in Tetris.
sooo wrong lmao, sharky is a VERY VERY good player
@@SmolJordan I agree Shark is potentially the GOAT at CTDAS
Sharky
Then why can he be in gold bracket last year and showing some great DAS play?
