Joseph is now entering a different phase of life (college) and still adapting to his new environment, yet he still masterfully wins his bracket with little challenge (all due respect to Benjy) and gets the #1 seed in the Top 8. You'd be a complete fool to count him out, like I've seen many comments say.

@KaloKross

he might not be the most optimal player right now in good conditions but when it comes to adaptation to bad patterns and droughts he really shines above the rest

Sad to hear Joseph say he's not at his peak anymore. But he's still so incredible! Love to watch him play!

It’s probably because he doesn’t play as much, but he’s never not been a top 5 player since 2018

Joseph is having the Jonas aura tbh, his stacking is just flawless. He's comfortable maintaining his stack and just wait his opponent to make a mistake topping out. It's just like Jonas the last time he won the tcwc

Nice haha I've always liked how expressive Joseph is when he's playing

this is a testament to why joseph is #3 seed. with how WELL benji played every freaking game, AND joseph getting droughted CONSTANTLY over and over, but not messing up and keeping his stack alive to clutch the win ONCE benji made a single mistake. its really impressive. benji played so freaking good too its just insane how it turned out.

Seeing the great Joseph losing his touch a bit after defeating the G.O.A.T. 7x champion himself Jonas (RIP that wonderful man...) three years later makes me sad, but at least he proved he is still a powerful player at NES Tetris.

36:52 That was some awesome move by Joseph there

Great to see Joseph back!

These players are insanely good. Growing up I always thought I was pretty good at Tetris but these players are just incredibly skilled and that Hand-Eye coordination is out of this world

It was nice seeing Benjy play at such a high caliber I’m now a fan!

So bizar chef john takes the time in between dishes to commentate on these matches. Luv ya chef john

Joseph still a force to be reconned with but new younger players with rolling technique are creeping up on him.

Did they stop syncronizing the Tetromino-RNG? If yes, why?

RNG synchronization is only occurring at top 8 b/c that requires specialized carts that would be a nightmare to ship to 64 people all over the world.

The underdog (this case lower bracket) receiving encouragement is pretty normal, and probably more fun.

I think… I might choose this as my next and true Competitive Game to go to, I’ve had problems on past games in attempting Competitive Gaming.

Hello please put on the KZread Channel the Jonas Tribute and the discussion between the commentators that happened before the final ! I really liked what the commentators said about Jonas and everybody must to see it. Thank you!

i was so pissed this game because of the droughts

That was a solid game ... seen better but still solid matches

I'm telling yall with Joseph, slow and steady wins the race

This is likely an artifact of the system used to enhance the boards; it uses image recognition to reconstruct the game iirc, and it probably just misread the clear animation

Completely agree with you. At that point Benjy's board was super clean too so there was nothing much to look at and they could've at least looked over and check to see how Joseph's doing. But they just seem to be focusing only on Benjy for some reason.

I had the same feeling while watching on twitch. I don't know why, maybe they were tired or something. All the other commentary teams brought the hype and energy to improve the experience but Vandy and Tang just didn't seem to have that spark... So weird especially seeing as Vandy always does an amazing job during all the CTM matches. I think this 'tradition' of having Tang and Chen at commentary is hurting CTWC this time around without the live crowd to supply the hype. Chen did great though, as did all the other commentary teams. Vandy should have been paired up with a different partner like Kibi or Bidwell or the best option: Kingsman. When one of the members of the commentary team is low energy, you gotta have a partner to make up for that or have a team that has good chemistry.
