I did not know that was what Cheez looked like, and I'll be honest, I am skeptical that he can play that well on 29 speeds with his hands in the air and on his head all of the time. I guess that's the benefit of this new rolling strategy, though.

From my limited experience doing competitive games, when you’re up against an amazing player and they have to pull out god-tier maneuvers just to _barely_ beat you, it doesn’t feel like a defeat at all. Its a compliment.
I thought I got baited hard and Huff was going to make the comeback. That last match though... Imagine he didn't get the lines. Would've been one of the first times Harry was right about the drop points counting that I've seen lol

To be honest, I feel that rolling brings more life to the game. I thought hypertapping was the end for people that physically can't tap that fast, but rolling is not only much easier on a physical level, it has even more potential than hypertapping. Of course, this does mean that in the future, this version of Tetris will start looking like the other nes Tetris where it's all about who can play for a few hours, but that will be awhile

I used to wonder why people like watching sports so much but after hearing how enthusiastic this guy is with his commentary I understand the appeal now. This was very entertaining and I don't even know that much about NES Tetris.
I haven't heard of competitive Tetris before, and I'm actually pretty fascinated by its existence. This feels like the virtual equivalent of competitive chess, but more interesting.

@@DJBSharpMusic I don’t think a measured turn based game where you actually play against someone is much like tetris where the competition is mostly just racing solo for max points. And the carefulness and method in tetris is largely mechanical skill and reflex and speed in determining position. Chess is about memorization and creativity. Tetris is more like rubix cube competitions.
@DJBSharpMusic

@@duscodick okay, that's a fair analysis
Rolling will take over the competitive scene far slower than hypertapping did. That is because its competitive edge lays in deep 29 territory, whereas hypertapping has an immediate and huge advantage over DAS, even from the early game. Sure, you can stack even higher with rolling on 18 and 19 too, than you will with tapping, but unless you're Cheez going up against Dog, you most likely wouldn't want to. It is however, a great way for DAS players to get on par with tappers again. If anything, rolling will make competition much closer, making it near damn impossible we'll see another 7 world title streak, ever again.

Was trying to find the balance of explaining just enough so that people who've never seen a tetris video before can at least understand what's going on. For the CTM recaps where it is expected that the viewer is already familiar with the scene I will skip most of that stuff
The amount of split-second decisions that top-level players have to make is astonishing. Videos like this that can break down the board at any given moment, analyze what the players have to work with, and detail what needs to be done in order to win are sincerely fascinating.
I love how detailed, engaging and understandable your commentary is.
Watching videos like this makes me realize how much every hobby has its own jargon and why it's often so difficult to find and be accepted into new community, because people are just expected to know this very specific lingo...

You aren't expected to know the lingo. If you see something that interests you, check it out. Watch the same videos people on that group watch and you'll pick it up quick. Things like jargon are good because that comes about where there is alot of depth in a topic so the community needs to build it's own language to discuss it easily. For example in Tetris here, if you were immersed in it, you wouldn't want to describe how its each player holds the controller with a full paragraph each time, so you just say Hypertapped or Roller or w/e. Bigger para than I meant to type but the take away is just, watch the same stuff as people your interested in joining and the rest will come, dont put pressure on yourself or paint others unkindly from anxiety.
I didn't know there was a highly competitive Tetris scene but this video pulled me in and now I have respect for those players' innovation.
Ok, this is such an intense match, you make a good commentator too, nice job
“Playing B Type 29-3!” Awesome commentary Scout!
Sheeesh I didn’t know Tetris was this complicated. I have a newfound respect for pro Tetris players
This was exhilarating commentary.
This is a great play by play video. I don't play competitive NES Tetris, but I love following it, and having these concise commentary videos breaking down how sick a match was is just so entertaining. Nice job Scout as well as the players- Cheez and Huff.
absolutely incredible. great breakdown! that was insane
Dang out with another video, they just keep coming ! 😊 Great work!
i had no idea this community even existed until i saw this video, but i watched the whole thing. you explain everything so clearly! :)
12:41 yeah, that someday was rather closer than we ever thought it would be.
I love it when someone who knows more than me can give a super detailed breakdown of something to show just how impressive it was.
ok so basically Cheez plays Cheese mode mid-match & post-killscreen and still wins
I love your content man. Cuz of youtube recommendations I watched a vid of yours and now I bought a NES + C Tetris
8:22 full of holes kinda puts the cheez in 'swiss cheese'
it's usually so difficult to see every little detail, but you really helped to show the meaning behind every single move they made. great video, as always.
These videos make me smile so much :) thanks man.
I don't even play Tetris and for some reason I find your videos just fascinating.
Amazing analysis of that match. I missed so I'm thankful that you made this video. Cheez is such a talent, it's increadible what he is able to achieve
It's crazy how in such a little time this came from being absolutely insane to fairly standard
Fantastic breakdown!! As almost a complete noob to Tetris, I feel like I managed to get most of what's going on.
wow fantastic highlight!! 29-3 in an actual game, absolute madness. Great analysis!!

I'm incredibly out of the loop when it comes to Tetris competitions but this was still one of the most exciting videos I'd seen in a while!
I love this video!!! Little suggestion to make videos like this easier to follow - you could try slightly darkening one half of the screen whenever you talk about a specific player in order to direct the eye to the correct side :) I loved this video and your commentary is incredible and engaging, but sometimes my eye had trouble quickly switching between which side to look at based on what name you said. Anyway, keep up the good work!!!

*Me who doesn't play Tetris:* I like your funny words magic man But in all seriousness, this was a very well put together video, even if I didn't understand some of it.
Well-commentated!
You really do a very good job to explain us all the details to know to understand well how works tetris. For most of the people it s just a video game very simple, and they just know a few things about it that everybody knows. But because of you, we can now understand it so much better, and it become so more fun to watch with all these informations. I used to watch all of the WCTT and monthly tournament, but i learned and discovered a lot too by watching yours videos So thanks a lot for your work and for all your videos :).
This video is very well made, Im not that big into tetris but due to the insightful commentary and editing, I really enjoyed it! Ill check out some other vids of yours later.
Not too long ago those trolls were calling the END of CLASSIC TETRIS because of the hypertapping madNES. HA! GO CHEEZ!!!! Goof Troop 4 Life!
