This year, the 3rd annual Dr. Mario World Championship was held at the Replay FX expo in Pittsburgh. This year was the fiercest competition yet. Featuring commentary by 7-time CTWC champ Jonas Neubauer. Hosted by Chris Bidwell and Vince Clemente.
In the 1990 Nintendo World Championship competition, Tetris was the game to beat. The winner, Thor Aackerlund, is still seen by many as the best to have ever played. Today’s Classic Tetris tournaments are played on that same version of Nintendo Tetris, using original NES game systems, controllers, and Tetris cartridges. In 2009, a player named Harry Hong became the first to achieve the highest possible score of 999,999 points. Inspired by this achievement, filmmaker Adam Cornelius produced a short film about Harry called “Max-Out”, and launched a Kickstarter campaign to document the world of competitive Tetris. As word of Adam’s Kickstarter campaign spread, rumors of max-out scores from other Tetris Masters began to surface, threatening the supremacy of Harry’s achievement. With the help of Nintendo World Championship veteran Robin Mihara, Adam searched for all of the Tetris Masters he could find. Jonas Neubauer emerged as an early max-out artist, along with the elusive original champ Thor Aackerlund. The idea of bringing these and other NES Tetris Masters together to compete in a live tournament became an obvious and irresistible proposition which was artfully captured in the 2010 feature length documentary Ecstasy of Order: The Tetris Masters. Under the leadership of producer Vince Clemente, The Classic Tetris World Championship is currently held at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, an annual event which has hosted the tournament since 2012. Chuck Van Pelt and his organizing committee have built the PRGE into the largest classic gaming expo in the country, drawing around 6,000 attendees. Every year the scores get higher. Rivalries are revisited once again, and new players emerge to challenge the old guard. Over 30 players have maxed out the score now. Will you be the next? ecstasyoforder.com thectwc.com - Ігри
Semis at 3pm PST tomorrow!
What can I do to participate in doctor Mario fights?
I've said this before, but I deeply appreciate the dead space at end of videos for the sake of avoiding timeline spoilers. Thank you.
For wut?
@@kasai0555 He means that the video is longer than the game so that when a player is leading 2-1 you can't see that the match is about to end in the next 5 minutes.
that makes perfect sense. i had always wondered why they did that.
That's fucking genius
Me: "gotta work" *ends up watching one hour of professional Dr. Mario Matches.*
Happened to me during tetris too😅
I totally understand!
That was an incredible match, so close in every single game...
She's very good. Heather can go to work on Dmwit if he underestimates her😁.
Can't wait for this game to grow competitively, it's so exciting to watch
Agreed
I love how Heather just keeps powering through!
"The joy is gone."
~Heather
Doctors watching this to see how to cure the corona virus XD
That digging was amazing in pretty much the whole video
This is a VERY different flavor from tetris
The competition for Heather here seems much stiffer than it did during the Tetris players' Dr. Mario tournament!!!!!!
It absolutely is. The competition here is more dedicated to Dr. Mario
Yeah, in the "Tetris-Dr-Mario" most of them played the game for the first time, I think.
Yes. Very stiff for Heather.
I bet Jonas has been practicing a ton at Dr. Mario, which is how he's now able to be the play-by-play man for the Dr. Mario World Championship!!
Is that Jonas's girlfriend?
@@Ekzimmermann Jonas' wife if I'm not mistaken
@@Ekzimmermann She's also a producer and occasional commentator of the CTWC I think!!!!!
@@STEJTHEGREATEST Yes. She's also a god at Tetris 99, even better than Jonas, imo.
"I wonder if I'm as good as these guys" *sees cross of death* "NOPE!"
3-0, 0-1, 0-2, 0-1, damn that was close. Great game!
Yeah the overall statistics that she won 3-1 doesn't do the game justice. It was incredibly close all the way.
I love the music from Dr. Mario.
My mother's favourite NES game.
Got it for the first time recently and my family loves it. I’m glad to see that it’s near and dear to lots of other families, too!
please bring a world championship for this more often!
Heather is a such a queen
TIL Competitive Dr. Mario is a thing. I approve, Dr. Mario is underrated.
Man, this is so cool to watch !
Amazing performance for both players!
The 2023 DrMC was awesome. dmwit helped me practice before my matches. Great player!
Didnt knew there was a Dr.Mario tourney until now.
One of my favorite games, I always like to start at lvl 24 High Speed and see how many times I can finish it in a row.
I have been on Stage 24 but iirc havent been able to repeat 24 lately, need to practice again.
Wow. That was such a good matchup
BOOM!!! Tetris for Je... wait, pills? What the hell is this?
What a nailbiter, every game down to the wire!
Heather allways putting a great fight, the meta allthought seens to be way more evolved since last time hun? a lot of big Ts and great combos from both players
Heather rebounds quick. I love it.
The last time was more "Hey what if we do a dr mario tournament to the side" because they had the world champ competing in the tetris tournament. Most of the players then were just tetris players picking up dr mario. Right now it's much more planned so good dr mario players are coming specifically for this.
I feel like Dr. Mario is a more technically demanding game, whereas Tetris requires more skill
I agree, where as D.Mario has alot of build up and having to look ahead, tetris has more open and...*hands movement* free plavement if that makes sence.
And Puyo Puyo Tetris is the combination of them both.
Agreed. I like Puyo Puyo a lot, but I have a soft spot for destroying everyone in Dr.Mario when I was a kid.
That second game catch-up was fucking amazing.
dmwit never saw it coming, took his medicine like a man. I think Dr. Heather had his heart rate up a bit too high. Who can play the poor guy.
Seriously though dmwit had some very impressive game play. Congrats to Heather on this hard fought win.
Noice! That was some serious and badass Doctor Marioing! Could you image the disease that toad had hahaha
What if that’s what it was like? A toad is really sick and the doctors are competing to see who can cure him first...
That's super fun to watch. I hope there's a programmer on the task to write a program to redo the layout in real time.
Never expected to watch a Dr Mario tournament
Wow, Heather was a warrior in game 2!!!!!!!
That was insane
Good Gamee!
Amazing
jesus! this was so intense! haha awsome
woowww! amazing job to both players!
Please credit the artist of the art used in the thumbnail, thank you!
Wow that was so intense this game is so hard
that little smile before victory 12:15
11:22 that play by Heather NUOH MAI GUOD
Never saw this game…very nice
Boom Quad for Heather!
20 years ago i would smoke then like theres no tomorrow,this game and mario bros 3 were the first games my dad bought me,tecnicly mario 3 came bundle with the nes so this was first game, then my tv was black and white so it was inposible at first until i learn the diferents shades,it took me like 10 years to finish all levels but when i played on color tv i was a total beast,hated the game but the music hooked me so i got back for more,played recently on switch but im not at the same level i was,great game tho
Holy potatoes. I didn’t k now Heather plays Dr. Mario. And is that Jonas on the mic?
Because of the DMWC as a side event last year I picked up Dr. Mario (it's on the NES mini) and played a few rounds. Now I kind of regret that I never payed any attention to it when I was younger. A funny little game.
11:22 Killer move from Heather.
17:34 Now I know where I know him from: It's Jonathan Byers from Stranger Things!
I love the Punch Out music in the background
Shout outs too the shout casters, kept me engaged the whole time.
Nice competition. I played this at elementary school but with slow speed. With high speed, they are professionals.
Boom Tetris for Jeff
Competitive Dr. Mario? I can't believe this is real. So cool!
Who can tell how am I gonna join this.i love di Mario so much
nice play
I swear this game has rubberband mechanics to make these matches so close!
Heather is a better player at clearing, but she makes too many mistakes and gets too much garbage
I really liked watching her playstyle
I like how she does risky things, that can be really helpful but if done wrong...
Yeah, she's still in the top 3 players as far as I'm concerned. Amazing play style, she just needs to work on her pill flips a bit to cut down on those mistakes. Looking forward to seeing her face off against Packie at some point.
Stay tuned for later rounds, this was an incredibly close match because of her mistakes but she got sharper later in the day.
I was annoyed at the garbage and mistakes at first too but she sure uses it to her advantage
so good
Rip jonas
im new to competetive dr mario, wondering what level and speed do they play at?
qualifying rounds is 11 medium / early knockout rounds 11 hi / top 8 through finals 14 hi
Hoping OCR will be up for next season. No pressure.
Are there no chairs?
9:52 Heather: "FUCK"
11:22 best move of the match
Looking forward to the final against Packie.
dammit now i know who won pt 2
Ok so now i'm waiting for the tetris attack competitive scene
BOOM!! Tetris for Jeff.
I so wish I could join!! I'm pretty bad-ass myself
Dmwit looks like Michael J. Fox from "Back 11 the Future" #MartyMcFly lookin boy😂😂😂 #TeamHeather
Theoretically, Dmwit (#1 seed) is supposed to face the weakest opponent in the Top 8. Unfortunately, the #8 seed turned out to be Heather who is actually a strong opponent.
lets go heather
昔よくやったなあ
もう29年前か
I love Heather!
GGs Heather!
Юрий-профессионал, ты где? 😊
Тут для тебя работка)
Нужна палка
Хэзер молодец, влилась в тусовку к мужу, классно складывает пилюли, да и в тетрисе напрактиковалась хорошо. Но тут док. марио, не знаю есть ли Патрик в сетке - его никому не обойти.
When you wake up at 4am
Game 3 was NUTTY.
Very possibly to be Packie vs Heather in finals,like it shoulda been at the lesser event last time,but packie is just to good, but the fact she can hang with him proves shes elite at Dr mario and a legit dark horse contender top win this event.
I don't think Jonas finished his train of thought about dmwit playing on a controller for the first time. What does he normally use?
I think he plays the game via emulation on a keyboard
Damn wish I could play these guys and gals. I'm a high level dr. Mario player, made the top 50 leaderboards on both Wii and 3ds. Currently ranked 33 on the 3ds. Dr.mario and bust a move are among my better games competitively, besides some mk games, burnout, split second. Yeah I'm a selective gamer but mixed lol. Dr. Mario is very underrated. Another great game nobody talks about is tetris attack but also goes by a fea other names in Japan. I suck in classic tetris though lol. Nice matches.
@@McNuggetFiend But now days I haven't seen any newer Dr. Mario tourneys on here, I get everything is online so how are they even working that? To my knowledge only the 3DS version is still up and running since nobody can travel to any spots right now. Have a link to the discord? Nobody has ever mentioned a discord, on another dr. mario video the uploader gave me the website but that can't be viable now with the pandemic canning everything right now.
Boom! Tetris for Jeff... wait, wrong video.
ironically enough she is the wife of Jonas, the tetris world champion and the one Jeff was against
Dr. Mario, best played standing.
Heather! From Russia with love
Cyka, blyat😜
What I think....Hermione Vs Harry Potter
Am I the only one t hat saw tdimwit actually took the third? If you look closely, Heather's board cleared immediately after dimwit's
is the garbage that is falling down every now and then something random or is it inflicted by the other player?
if a player manages to make two or more lines of 4 with a single pill, the game sends garbage to the opposing player.
Boom, Tetris for... Mario?
Heather Ito, I think I'm in love ❤️
*Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuucooooooooooo*
Топил за чувака
Why did they not sit down and play?
wait this isn’t tetris
Ben Plus! No it’s not
It’s even better...
dude the announcer sounds like jacksfilms, anyone know his name?
It’s Jonas Neubauer, Heather’s husband. He’s a tetris god too, always owns the CTWC
Tetris for jeff
Isn’t it hard to play standing ?
I wonder how you would have survived in the golden age of arcades.
@@JoshHowardChannel you can lean a bit on the cab
Thor Aackerlund won the 1990 Nintendo World Championship while standing. If Thor can hypertap his way to a world title while standing, Dr Mario players can deal with it too.
I think it’s cooler to stand up; keeps the matches engaging and energized
Heather rules.
Now that's some incredible bullshit
Its tetris but puyo pop chains
Heather 14:26
For the record, that was an emphatic "frick"
Tfw no professional Dr Mario player gf
It bothers me that they have to stand and play. But maybe they prefer that.
I play Puyo Puyo, so this confuses me half of the time
