Upsets are inevitable when the competitive scene is only just starting to take off skill-wise. The fact that champions can be made after less than 2 years of playing the game means the skill level of the game hasn’t been pushed even close to its limit yet. Jospeh no doubt is incredibly good but him being the first young competitive NES Tetris player gave him a head start and arguable an easier road to the top. Now the scene is filled with fresh blood and filled with pressure to improve to keep up.

Keep in mind that Joseph happened to be incredibly talented as well, even compared to the new generation. He maxed out in 5 months in a time where there were little resources, and Joseph invented new techniques that the new generation is using now. Everyone has built on the progress that Joseph brought (pretty much everyone at the top level studys Joseph’s stacking), and Joseph has done a fine job learning the new things that everyone else is brought as well.

Joseph brought this game to other level and now he has to rise even above it. I think he can do it. Anyway, that was a crazy match

I remember watching Joseph's first final at the age of 15, blitzing in and destroying everyone on sight. Seeing him and hearing his voice at 18 a couple years later really got me mindblown, not to mention how the stress is on him against younger players. A lot like Lee Chang-ho's early emergence and dominance at Go until a new generation of youthful masters emerged like Lee Sedol, Gu Li, etc.

Yeah he could have burned with the square. But I believe the misdrop of that T was the main reason that leaded to the top-out. He wanted to pull the T piece back twice after seeing the next piece was I piece. But he pulled back too slowly that he accidentally pulled back the next piece, which is the I piece, and then he had to press the button once more in order to move the I to the right well. Sadly he didn't react that fast to do so and that cost the game.

Joseph just looks better and better every year.

Now that he's a 2 time champion, he's already experienced what it feels like to win. There is more to win in winning a trophy you never had, as opposed to protecting the trophy you have won. Next year, Joseph will come back and win it again. The loss will make him come back stronger than before. But yes. His inspiration to bring in such young talent all over the world will def make competition a tough one to overcome.
