2018 CLASSIC TETRIS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS INTERVIEW
CTWC broadcaster Arda Ocal (@ArdaOcalTV) interviews reigning 7 time Classic Tetris Champion Jonas Neubauer (@neubsauce) on a variety of topics in this 60+ minute interview:
4:10 - How Jonas prepares for the CTWC
6:25 - Jonas' early memories of discovering and falling in love with Tetris for the first time
11:00 - The Tetris community before the first world championships in 2010
16:40 - How good is Jonas at other Tetris titles other than Classic NES Tetris?
Then, Jonas goes year by year reflecting on every Classic Tetris World Championship:
18:51 - 2010, The First World Championships, Jonas takes it. Facing Harry Hong for the first time and where this rivalry was at in 2010. If the 2010 tournament wasn't 10 minutes from his house, would Jonas even have participated? How watching back the 2010 tournament motivated Jonas to lose 40 pounds
28:10 - 2011, Jonas repeats as champion, building his name and reputation
32:25 - 2012, Jonas completes the three peat and is feeling confident
34:25 - 2013, Jonas is against the ropes but pulls off an improbable comeback
39:11 - After 2013, did Jonas begin to get complacent, did his training suffer, did he take winning for granted?
41:00 - Why Jonas almost didn't make the 2014 World Championships
41:26 - 2014, the one that got away. Jonas is finally defeated and reflects on a difficult tournament, what it felt like to lose the crown, having to board a plane right after the tournament to get to work the next day and how he almost quit on that flight and what two conversations really motivated him to return
46:13 - Where the rivalry with Harry Hong is after 2014 and how they have never played an elimination game in a tournament since that game
48:47 - 2015, redemption for Jonas, once again champion. What went into his preparation, how motivated was he, how it felt once again becoming champion,, why losing the previous year was a blessing in disguise for him and how his attitude changed during the competitions from this point on
51:40 - 2016, "Boom Tetris For Jeff" and how he relished being in that lovable villain role against a crowd favorite
55:22 - Who in the Tetris community is the best at other retro titles like Dr. Mario, Sonic the Hedgehog and Street Fighter 2? What about in other versions of Tetris?
57:13 - Winning in 2017, the emergence of new challengers and how close Jonas was to losing again. Did Jonas try learning the "hyper tapping" technique after this tournament, seeing how prevalent it has become in tournament play? This is the year Jonas started streaming ( / nubbinsgoody , how has that changed his approach to the World Championships?
1:02:10 - previewing the 2018 tournament: Jonas breaks down his exhibition match against Koryon in Hong Kong and how impressive Koryon's performance was, is Koryon the favorite going into this World Championships, where he sees the Tetris community and tournaments going from here, as well as being an ambassador for the community and the game

    I'm writting this as final game of ctcw 2018 ends. Jonas IS the best ambassador that Tetris could have ever asked for. Coming from a fan of Street Fighter and Dota2 events, Jonas is the equivalent of a Daigo or a Dendi. Shoutout to you, Jonas. You're the long bar that our tetris game has always wanted. PD: Shoutout to the whole community. I've watched through the whole year, it is a really heartwarming and welcoming community.

    I've found myself watching a lot of Jonas stuff lately, because I really miss him and his twitch streams. This interview exemplified why I was really fond of Jonas as a person and a player. He was confident, but there wasn't ever really any *ego* to him. He had won 7 of the 11 world championships that he played in, and yet he was a sweet down to earth guy. He actively cared about making the community a good and safe place to be, and I really appreciated that about him. Its been nearly a year, and I really miss him.

    From the start of game 1 of the finals, he clearly played much more dangerously. Jonas stacked suuuuper high and passed on tons of burn opportunities. I’m sure Jonas is one of the proudest of Joseph’s victory. Jonas had been ready for Koryan, but Joseph had the good fortune of learning some lessons from his matches against Koryan and Harry, and there had been a definite adaptation in play style.

I give it to someone whose an all around great retro player, or at least to someone who has great accomplishments on 5 or 6 games.
