Thank you Aleksej Pazjitnov for creating possibly the best game ever and thank you to everyone who arranged the tetris championships, keep it up! "BOOM, fun for everyone!"

This just puts in a very stark relief how rare it is in sports/competitions that finalists under so much pressure can still be smiling and enjoying what they're doing. This is amazing.

I've never watched competitive Tetris before, as I didn't know it existed. But seeing these two competitors battle it out was enthralling. Huge respect to Koryan when he realised he had lost, but was a true competitor and willed his opponent to victory and even raised his hand above him. Absolutely incredible to watch, I wish more sports/esports could take a lesson from these two and apply the level of commitment these competitors clearly have. Sure, you may not have won, but you can appreciate an incredible victory when you see one, and that is what I witnessed here. Bravo

I always keep coming back to this video, as well as the Joseph vs. Jonas video. Such incredible matches!

Koryan I am an instant fan after watching this. I just love how humble and wholesome everyone is. You can tell they are all on the same side, the side of Tetris :)

Maxime Prevot bro you edited it and it still sounds so bad Tinder date Girl: “ so what do you do in life?” Guy: “ I’m a commentator for Tetris games”

i know nothing aboute the tetris world however these come up the night and ive watched the 2 finals with joseph in them and i gotta say what a top lad he is great ambassador for the sport and hope to catch him in the future all the best. and also to the other competitors of course hope they all level up and keep this going quality entertainment

the dead air at the end, with the serene music? perfect video ender. like holy crap i wonder how many people even made it that far in the video, especially with how charged the match was

Oh my god the genuine joy on Koryan’s face after Joseph won. I can’t. He’s so happy and proud omgggg aaaaa

There such humble champions its very refreshing,I don't quite see enough of it in boxing these days hah, yeah I mean of course Koryan wanted to win for the record he is one of maybe like 3 people period to ever beat Joseph in either this championship or the monthly online tournament, they have played in Monthly tournament against each other I believe 4 times now or 3, with Joseph winning either 2 or 3,and Koryan winning 1, though it must be stated that was with not the same rng sequences so that is a factor as well a luck factor out of there control so to speak that isn't a factor here at the main annual event,but still I am sure Koryan was happy for Joseph and I mean even Koryan who was a grand master 2-3 years ago has improved tremendously, even just last year his biggest flaw was he seemed to go for big points as fast as possible then top out before kill screens, but now hes developed into a better more well rounded player himself and can basically 9 out of 10 times make it to level 29-30.

It's amazing that this is the final and they're still so friendly and having fun. I feel like that's what's unique about Tetris. Other games have people sneering or stone faced or talking shit during competitions. Tetris players are always so chill.

What a beautiful final. Congrats to both players.

Tetris players always look like they're enjoying themselves while competing, comments on these videos are really lighthearted. Almost makes me wanna leave the toxicity that is the FGC and start playing tetris lol! Good match guys

i wish i could get classic tetris without having to order an old nes on ebay. i was so mad that the classic mini nes didn't include tetris. i have a ps3 and ps4 and have no desire to play stupid games like tetris effect, i want the classic version. would be nice if they included the vlassic version on these silly modern tetris games.
