Anything above 25 Hz is actually counterproductive and 30 Hz is literally faster than the hardware can process. And the average level in competition will probably be closer to 45 and will be dominated by those who can most consistently roll at exactly 25 Hz. Other than that, very accurate.

In my opinion, thrillscreen is a little corny, kill screen sounds cooler and is the general term across all games even if it's not quite accurate for nes tetris level 29. not to mention, it is still killer in 99% of games and for 99% of people.

Can we all chip in and get Joseph a sports psychologist? In terms of raw skill, Joseph is probably the GOAT. For a while, he was coming out with a new WR every week. His run of maxouts in the CTWC qualifier may stand for a decade. He still posted the only 1.4 ever witnessed. But just looking at his face in most competitions you can tell he's totally in his head. I think the pressure ruins the fun for him.

@LuisPereira-bn8jq

3 жыл бұрын

"In terms of raw skill, Joseph is probably the GOAT" Sorry, but this is quite likely not true. What's happening in Tetris is that the game was relatively stale for many years, but now we're seeing a massive influx of new talent into the game. There are multiple (at least 5 or 6) contenders with a serious shot at overtaking Joseph's 1.4, which likely won't be the record for much longer, especially once rolling comes fully online. Joseph was the first in the new wave (and certainly ushered that wave) of players, but his early success also benefitted a lot from being an hypertapper in a field of DAS players. Except now hypertapping isn't an advantage, so much as it is the standard. The simple truth is that, while Joseph may still be the best player for now, the edge he has over the field is decreasing fast.

@b.t.8879

3 жыл бұрын

@@LuisPereira-bn8jq If by "early success" you mean his CTWC titles, I'd agree. But that wasn't where he accomplished guys greatest feats. Joseph was setting world records long after hypertapping became widely accepted. There's certainly a generation of players that Joseph inspired that have incredible potential, he came into the last CTWC as the number 1 seed with 12 maxouts in 2 hours. That was better than the second seed and ultimate champion Dog by almost double. I'm sure when rolling comes into it's own 1.4 will stand because it allows people to play well past the kill screen. That doesn't change the fact that the game Joseph played throughout 18 and 19 was as close to a perfect game as is probably possible. I maintain Joseph's biggest opponent is not a young up and comer, but is between his two ears.

@@b.t.8879 "he came into the last CTWC as the number 1 seed with 12 maxouts in 2 hours. That was better than the second seed" There's a simple problem with this: you are comparing Joseph well into his third year of high level Tetris with someone in his first. Joseph matured well before the field which he unleashed, which means he has way less room for improvement than the 5 or 6 rising players he's now contending with. "I maintain Joseph's biggest opponent is not a young up and comer" Say it all you want, the odds are not in your favor: the vast majority of your personal impression of Joseph is based on him dominating a field *much* weaker than the current one.

So weird. I very clearly remember the 'Boom Tetris for Jeff!' videos and watching a few tournaments after that. It was basically just a bunch of old guys who had been playing for decades. And now, 11 (!!!) year olds are crushing it! The scene has changed so much since it became popular again. It isn't too surprising though. Tetris is a game of speed and young people just have a massive advantage there. EDIT: I love Koryan's face when he say Pixelandy getting his score. He was just in awe of witnessing such greatness. Such a wholesome community,

Hi friends, I’d love to get into this style of Tetris but not sure where to start. Any leads or tips?

Given the number of transitions that are getting done, I think you might have to start working on an additional pace that takes into account the individual's max potential post transition too. It'd likely have to be based on statistics from different tournaments and individual play. I think there would need to be a full database of games for this tho.
