For those wondering why the TAS put everything on top, the spawn rate is instant, so the less distance needed to reach the placement, the faster the blocks are placed, the faster the next block is spawned.
There's also the glitch where you can get a tetris using the top three rows, and the game lowers the board by one line for every tetris at the top, making for easy tetrises in the future
Although it technically wasn't optimizing for this, we can still compare the TAS to the fastest maxout human record. The TAS had 988,831 points at 168 lines (level 22) and then scored a tetris to max out. At that point, it needed an additional 11,168 points for the maxout, and the level 22 tetris gave 27,600 points, so only 40.5% of it was needed. By CTWC rules, that means only 4 * 0.405 = 1.62 lines out of that tetris count, so this would be a level 22 + 9.62 line clear by that metric. I think MylestheGreat has the current world record by this metric with level 23 + 4.46 lines (also from an 18 start). So humans are less than 5 lines away from this record in that particular respect, although maybe the TAS could improve by a couple of lines if it were optimizing in that way. Certainly if the TAS used a level 19 start, it could substantially improve on this record, albeit at the cost of a lot of real time. TheCTWC Leaderboard unfortunately hasn't been updated for a long time and still lists Jonas's lvl 25 + 0.22 line maxout as the record. That was a very impressive game, but it is also very out of date.
In short, the topout check that modern games do when a piece spawns, this game does when a piece tries to lock in place. To trigger a game over in this version of Tetris, this has to happen in order: 1) The piece attempts to fall one block. 2) The blocks it tries to fall into are already occupied, so it can't fall. 3) The piece tries to lock in place. 4) The blocks the piece is on were already occupied by another piece. Only then, the game over gets triggered. So, a piece can spawn inside another piece, but if you can get it out of there in any way (rotating, moving or letting fall), you can avoid the topout.
@Eleanor Bartle no basically just 1 leaving 1 line blank and filling out the rest flawelessly, I am interested how high the score can be before you loose. You do loose in like 1 minute as you can´t clear a line. Ive been trying it on my toilet Gameboy and got close a few times but on low speed setting you get way less points for just placing the blocks
they completed the run with how ever many actual rerecords it took (i guess-timate, 250,000-300,000), and then kept loading the final savestate manually until it showed 999999
What tool assisted glitchy madness is clearing the bottom row? Witchcraft, I'm telling you! They are manipulating the RAM in their NES to get all the correct pieces and clear the bottom row!

the most points at the top

Incredible!
I never would have thought of a strategy **anything** like this!
Impressive, thanks TAS ! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Me when I play Tetris irl no hacks I promise please believe me:
Todd Rogers plays like that
You know I was skeptical at first, but your desperation makes me believe that you're telling the truth.
Yep, exactly how I’d do it.
Not in a million years.

@@andrewzhang8512 Any idea where I could find the game?
19 start, 5 burns before transition, 2 more on 20, none beyond that until after max
It's 22+9.32, actually better than this level 18 start video. Level 18 start no pushdown is now refuted for earliest max
**watching the large slabs of stack being built** well, well, well
please see yourself out
Why was this so hilarious to watch
1,017,631 points when recalculated for competition score. Awesome sub-3.
I thought it was 999999 points.
no it's 999'999
IF THE POINTS WERENT CAPPED YES
We gotta see Hatris after this.
Tas is funny, it always goes risky 😂
Woah! I never see the ending in Tetris! But GO TO HIGH SCORE!!!
全消し！ + SCORE MAX
Ur a beast congrats
AHHHHH NOT DANCE OF THE SUGAR PLUM FAIRIES!
It is.
how does this not trigger a game over many times over?
Are you familiar with what a TAS is?
In short, the topout check that modern games do when a piece spawns, this game does when a piece tries to lock in place.
To trigger a game over in this version of Tetris, this has to happen in order:
1) The piece attempts to fall one block.
2) The blocks it tries to fall into are already occupied, so it can't fall.
3) The piece tries to lock in place.
4) The blocks the piece is on were already occupied by another piece.
Only then, the game over gets triggered.
So, a piece can spawn inside another piece, but if you can get it out of there in any way (rotating, moving or letting fall), you can avoid the topout.
For the love of Jonas...
Tetris?
BLYAT
Nice rerecord count
How is nobody realizing the nanosecond pause?
will there be a tetris NES max possible score no line clear?
@Eleanor Bartle no basically just 1 leaving 1 line blank and filling out the rest flawelessly, I am interested how high the score can be before you loose.
You do loose in like 1 minute as you can´t clear a line. Ive been trying it on my toilet Gameboy and got close a few times but on low speed setting you get way less points for just placing the blocks
@Eleanor Bartle Yup it seems very hard thast why I would love to see a tas do it
but as long as I have to use the toilet as long I will try
How did they manage to get exactly 999999 rerecords on a 999999-point TAS?
they completed the run with how ever many actual rerecords it took (i guess-timate, 250,000-300,000), and then kept loading the final savestate manually until it showed 999999
Hold up, what was that L piece doing at 2:06?
I'm not sure what it was doing, I'm completely blind.
Looks like it spawns in, a rotation gets it past the small opening, and it is fitted against other blocks to get the line clear.
Ah yes, 999999 rerecord
666666 record score XD
The best ending ever
How is he getting line clears when the lines aren't full? 1:27 he gets a 4 line clear when it doesn't all add up?

Third comment. Is anyone here gonna do the Tengen version?
Tengen version has been done for some time.
@@Spikechive Speedrunning the whole thing on this channel.
@@michaelalameda2002 The thing is... it doesn't have a killscreen. Aftrer you reach level 17, you can just play as long as possible.

Bla la ling! Bla la ling!
why not start on level 19?
I wonder what will be a Tetris at the top of the screen
Did you stral my private gameplay video?
I’m not that sensitive but the blinking RNG manip pausing gets me a little dizzy every time I see these Tetris TAS videos.
How did you trigger tetris with a L piece? lol
1:15 WHAT!??! WHAT!!??
What?
when you clear the top row, it clears a bottom row i think
Worst game of qualifier for CTWC 2100 be like:
where is the t-spin !? joking
1:33
A Tetris TAS that doesn't use Hoshimachi Suisei in the splash screen? At this point that feels almost blasphemous.
Its broken?😢
yea that’s what I did too
