Patrick Scott Patterson is also a surprisingly good Tetris player, and was a competitor during the NWC back in 1990. It's a really good, positive community without a lot of the drama/infighting that one might expect competing over such a competitive title. If you like this video, you owe it to yourself to look up Jonas Neubauer, probably the greatest classic Tetris player ever. He's put a lot more into it than I have, and as such, he's really fascinating to watch.

This record has since been topped fairly strongly by Joseph Saelee, but I think it's really the legend of Thor that's most significant. It's not about how high of a level he hit. It's the fact that, while the rest of the world wondered if it was even possible, he so nonchalantly claimed he could do it for 20 years and felt no need to prove it. It's the fact that when he finally did prove it, he threw the damned NES on a dresser in a hotel room sideways and knocked it out in one game, having only just turned on the NES, no warm-up. He's so good and yet doesn't even care how good he is. Thor is kind of like a Babe Ruth or Joe DiMaggio in the world of gaming. It's quite possible he's NOT the greatest of all time. But if he's not, he's damned close, and has a personality and demeanor which create a legend saying he is. Even if he never comes back of retirement, I can't imagine him ever being forgotten by the classic Tetris community.

He emigrated to the US in 1969 and worked in textiles and later in architecture. I still remember being little and climbing up to see the sophisticated building plans drawn all by hand on a huge swiveling drafting table. He never did adapt to the CAD/computer era, and so functionally retired around the time of the NWC.

Watching this now, as a player of NES and modern Tetris, I am shocked by little. Maxouts are no longer novel - no more than idly impressive, a passing thing to be acknowledged by those that understand its history. Speed and quick thinking, even, are only exceptional in extreme circumstances - the 40-line sprint world record, as of writing this, is at a pace of over 6 pieces per second. That's more than double the speed that come with the killscreen (12-20 frames to drop, 10-18 frames ARE, which makes anywhere from 2 to 2.5 PPS). The two things in this video that astound me are as follows: 1. He did this without any Tetris community from which to learn. The reason so many people are so good is because everyone is either inadvertently or intentionally bouncing their skills, techniques, and information around with everyone else. He independently developed his abilities. 2. He can hypertap faster than any other player I've ever seen. I'm a hypertapper, and I'm just slightly faster than the ARR - perhaps 11 shifts per second rather than the 10 that would come from perfectly charged DAS. Even jdMfX_ (Joseph Saelee), who's reached level 31 and even scored Tetrises at killscreen speeds, doesn't tap quite as quickly as some of what I see Thor do in this video. At least, I don't think so. It's truly astounding. Also, in concurrence with what everyone else has said, whoever was knocking so persistently on the door is an asshole.

As an old school gamer, I honestly think developing skills on old school games by yourself is the better way to do it. It's the way we typically HAD to.... and it was interesting back in the day to travel to different places and see totally different techniques on the same games. When a community shares their tactics with one another, most of these players become copies of each other to a point... and I honestly think it keeps some players from having the deepest level of knowledge possible about a game. Sure, maybe they can play a game well, but they didn't get their through their own trial and error and learning process. It's a big part of why so many modern "world record" gamers have such a hard time believing some of the old school scores. It's lost on many of them that someone can thrive by learning a game on their own because they learn things differently that way. Even with a lot of disputed scores later being proven possible, they continue to go that way.

@ellenolan6917

I totally agree - developing versus learning skill is a fascinating topic to further explore. However, I do think the modern environment within retro gaming communities surmounts the independent learning that characterized gaming before the internet. Despite the dwindling of that, the camaraderie and sense of community that comes with so many people coming together over passion for a game that’s still being played 30 years after its initial release is a beautiful thing. It seems to me like the ability to make friends in this way outweighs the dynamic of gaming in the 80s and 90s. That’s just me, though.

Thor. He was and is miles away from any other competitor. Both in Tetris skills and character. Think, he did this over 20 years ago. He is humble and does not brag or "showoff". I truly admire him. I have to admit i was tearing up at the end of the documentary. Truly touching. What a life story.

This is the greatest advert for RedBull in the entire world. They should pay Thor for use of the video, it wouldnt need editing. It would be way more successful than any RedBull advert so far.

Damn, while someone was constantly knocking on the door at the most crucial part of the game. The Might Thor shows us the "unknown". Fricken Amazing. Hats off to you. Funny at the end its the same music as "Don Flamingo" from Mike Tyson's Punch out.

that knocking in the end made me rage so hard even from only watching him play

came here from _Ecstasy of Order_ having heard the stories of Thor I couldn't be happier that he was able to pull this off hats off, sir, your are THE legend.

Also, : Ben Mullen, Alex Kerr, Robin Mihara, Harry Hong, Louie Skouie, Dan Z, and a bunch of others that all have very unique abilities and are truly world class people as well as players.

There was a moment in the Doc where it appears as if the other players doubted Thor's 30 way back when. Lot's of "impossible" thrown around. This humble submission made the ending all the more better because of that. Good Job! There's still only one name on the Twin Galaxies Highest level list.

The mythical dragon of NES Tetris

Congratulations Thor, I recently watched "Ecstasy of Order The Tetris Masters" and while I loved the documentary it was tough to watch you fall short at the Championships. We were pulling for you, especially after hearing the tough times you've had throughout your childhood and later life, and we really wanted you to come out on top. Anyway, when this video was shown in the film and now seeing it again, I can't help but smile. You did what all of them thought impossible.. just amazing.

Literally a perfect game. Never seen anything so clean in my life.

The best part is that he just turns on the cartridge and does it on the first try!

I have just watched Ecstasy of Order: TTM. And this final scene totally wrecked me. The Tetris world and its community is just so inspiring.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that Thor, assuming a world where he kept interest in the game and wanted to keep improving, is on a completely higher level of expertise compared to Jonas or Joseph or Koryan. I get that he leave the past behind and be known for something besides winning the NWC, but it’s always fun to think what could have happened. It’s also interesting to think that he may have been the first person to get a 1.2 million game and the only person to get a 1.3 million game but the technology had not been developed and he didn’t bother to track or prove it when he was a teen.

I agree with that. He was able to pull this stuff off way back when despite the pressure that came with it. In the modern day, he is a casual player at best and yet he can do stuff most people cannot. If for some reason he ever chose to dedicate himself to joining the growing competitive community that surrounds it, he'd show that he's probably the best that ever played it pound-for-pound. It was effortless for him.

Wow this is unbelievable. Big up to all the guys in the Ecstasy of Order documentary. True masters of order.

I was watching the documentary and towards the end I Googled Tetris level 30 to see if it ever was done and the first KZread hit was this video and at the same time on my TV screen it showed the same screen and was so pumped it was Thor who did it after all the other Tetris Masters doubted him. Honestly I kind of did too. Good shit!!

I calculated his final score to be 1,043,699. Also at 0:58, he got the T piece all the way over to the left 12 blocks from the bottom. That's 5 taps in at most 12 frames, which is well over 20hz

i only ever did this once. elsewhere on YT you can see others doing it several times over... if you are one of the few that actually accomplishes this, congrats!

You can start on levels 10-19 by holding A while pressing start.

lvl 9 is level 19. the first ten levels are at the same speed, at lvl 11 it gets faster. that's why you can choose levels 0,1,2 for different speeds.

The amazing part is how he can burn or leave incomplete a single line and effortlessly clear them, burning the awkward pieces before the longbar, and always in time, to go single or tetris so consistently is a complex strategy. Thor makes it look so easy to stack and clear, but those gaps or singles are what trips me up.
