And he's got great sportsmanship too, I think in his top 8 or maybe top 16 (game against Josh I think?) He was cheering him on and got really excited for him when he overcame a really difficult spot. Absolutely amazing player.
Hi CTWC! I came here to watch all of the games as I couldn't see it live. However I could just find the top 32 and later got spoiled by another youtuber who put up a private video. A tip is to be quicker on these uploads to have more views on your official channel in the future. I will be following! Thanks!
I remember when i used to play tetris friends in Facebook, i was at the top position in every single mode with my friends, but alex always kicked my ass. I though it was a bot because he was insane! Now I realize it was a real person........maaaan! I cant believe there are people playing like this.
it happened in the next round against zzyzxz . sleepgate happened to alex. sleep timer came on and obscured his view of the game screen for a few lines.
Hes a great player,only thing hes gotta work on is his tendency to give up late in game when he misdrops near the top,and his over committing to single and doubles after 19, but when he plays at his peak best and he can still get better hes a top 5-6 world player no question, hes good kid and a heck of a elite player,hope to see him back in the top 4 in 2019.
Jonas employs a similar tactic, although I'd argue he executes it better. He explained in one of his streams once that blocking the well and building on top of it is better in the long run for burning and your stack rather than setting up difficult tucks and over hangs. Plus it becomes better for your score to burn more lines at a time rather than just the one. The piece set made it really difficult for Alex to execute it in that first round.
TRSN - refers to the score each player had when they are at the level 19 transition! TRT - percentage of lines cleared by a tetris PPLN - average points scored per line clear.
They are playing with the same drops so a win indicates which player has used the pieces better to score more points. You could say the same for a lot of competitions. Take athletics, the runner in lane one doesn't affect the runner in lane two, but them doing it at the same time shows who is faster.
If i were a Tetris player I would get a Tetris and ONLY a Tetris, then top out. When someone asks me why I always top out so early, I say that I have an average 100% Tetris rate.
Is it just me or does the male commentator sound like a middle schooler having a crush on the female commentator and trying to impress her. After all, she is a gamer girl, and that crushes middle school standards.

Thank you. :)
That's what she said.

Gosh darn you XD
You missed 4:48 XD!
Green Tea is my favorite Tetris player. Just an awesome bubbly personality, laughs at himself, and has some killer skills, too.
And he's got great sportsmanship too, I think in his top 8 or maybe top 16 (game against Josh I think?) He was cheering him on and got really excited for him when he overcame a really difficult spot. Absolutely amazing player.
I don't know. It looks like Tetris is really hard for him. You can tell by his shirt.
@@juggalo184 what
@@egg7491 His shirt says とても つらい Which means really hard (difficult)

Alex looks younger every day. The strange case of Alex Kerr!
Eh, far from my best, but was a lot of fun playing against Koryan offline.
You did great tho!
@@kgbc2000 Thank you!
Yeah you did great Paul, the round 0 match with Kirstin was a great game on the Saturday as well!
You did great!!! I support u so much!! ♡
Nice one Paul!
I adore Heather's commentary. I wish they had her on the main stage 😭
Heather for main stage 2k19

I LOVE her sexy little laugh she does. So hot.
15:00 that dig from sqr is insane, he rotated back and forth to get it over :o

It looks really impressive seeing Koryan handling the controller in that manner.
Overall just interesting to see these differences with each player.
20:43 oh my god the foreshadowing
Great work, er'body! You are all fantastic! Watching these games each year is great fun. :)
7:30. Whoops.
Boom... fly's unzipped.
Smooth real smooth lol
😁
“Nice little tug”
Ha, SQR hoping no one noticed.
alex’s recovery game 1 = savvvage
I had to chuckle at 4:48. ^_^. Good matches. It gets better every year.
That dig from Alex in Game 1 was epic. That he kept a cool head and went on to take the game despite being massively behind was jaw-dropping.

25:12 peep Jonas
Alex might as well play without even looking at his god damn screen, just have someone scream the piece while he stares at his opponents screen.
it happened in the next round against zzyzxz . sleepgate happened to alex. sleep timer came on and obscured his view of the game screen for a few lines.
Fun fact at around 2:30 he say is this tetris or tennis tetris name is inspired from tennis
Alex is such an amazing player.
The real action starts at 32:10
These fine folks will be our best defense when the Tetromino Legions invade.
Using their powerful minds to neatly stack them and clear them out in rows of 10.
what do you call it when someone twists tetris gossip?
tea spin
OMG my fly was down the whole time?! 😂🤣
Happens all the time
3 Japanese players here!
who is another one

@@dhcqae sqr, green tea and koryan
Alex is my favorite player for being an under dog when i first watched him play
Hes a great player,only thing hes gotta work on is his tendency to give up late in game when he misdrops near the top,and his over committing to single and doubles after 19, but when he plays at his peak best and he can still get better hes a top 5-6 world player no question, hes good kid and a heck of a elite player,hope to see him back in the top 4 in 2019.
That was some Level 19 grind by Alex in Game 1.
SQR, zip your fly!!
It's called playing Balls Out.
LOL glad I wasn't the only one who saw that!
Lol
20:43 go forward one year later 👀
Wait... Is that Sinister1 behind Paul during Paul and Koryan's second game??? Was he playing Punch Out at the Retro Gaming Expo? XD
*BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCOOOOOOOOOOO!*
Thanks for new video for side matchup...
thanks god, new video of tetris
I like how alex is just doing singles and dobles to chase down the score
5:02 Alex' play: why do players stack pieces on the right and make things worse?
Jonas employs a similar tactic, although I'd argue he executes it better. He explained in one of his streams once that blocking the well and building on top of it is better in the long run for burning and your stack rather than setting up difficult tucks and over hangs. Plus it becomes better for your score to burn more lines at a time rather than just the one.
The piece set made it really difficult for Alex to execute it in that first round.
I think he was a bit worried his stack was getting to high and it was a good opportunity to delete some lines. Those pieces come at you fast lol
Don’t forget the limitations of a DAS tatic
Damn that tspin
Greentea!!!! :D
Lol! He looks about 10!
Where are top 16 and final 8? T_T
What does "turns" mean at the end of each game
TRSN - refers to the score each player had when they are at the level 19 transition!
TRT - percentage of lines cleared by a tetris
PPLN - average points scored per line clear.
that is not turns my friend :)
it is transition, which means the score at which the player transitioned!
The commentary from the lady is a clear TEN!! Nice voice too :-}
I had no idea that there’s a competitive Tetris scene. Cool 😂
when will the final be uploaded?
Fun fact, at the time Sam parry was my 6th grade art teacher. He’s a cool guy
BOOM! Tetris for Jeff
Alex is amazing, wish he'd pull through with a 1st place someday.
Can someone explain what the point is in playing against someone else? Since they don't affect each other at all?
They are playing with the same drops so a win indicates which player has used the pieces better to score more points. You could say the same for a lot of competitions. Take athletics, the runner in lane one doesn't affect the runner in lane two, but them doing it at the same time shows who is faster.
@@jonasnoobhour514 Oh so same drops! Cool thanks!
No one gonna mention SQR sitting there with his fly down? Lmao
SQR's shirt means that his parents failed No Nut November
Tetris for JEFF
2:51 HAVE U SEEN WHAT ALEX DID OMGGG
it's just a t-spin
As someone born in august, I can confirm that SQR’s shirt is correct
5:18 - 8:18
incredible first game, def underrated (pity SQR had that misdrop at the transition tho)
Boom, tetrex for Jeff.
SQR has weaknesses in transition
sqr representing
august kids rise up
SQR caught off guard for the level 19 transition...😣😣
Hello, I want to have alex kerr. Do I have facebook or telegram or something else?
I dont know, do you?
another 40 minutes well spent
Lol they were joking about Paul upsetting Koryan but next year he would beat Jonas in the first round
David So in the thumbnail.
Tetris is still THE BEST!!
If i were a Tetris player I would get a Tetris and ONLY a Tetris, then top out. When someone asks me why I always top out so early, I say that I have an average 100% Tetris rate.
Alex looks like he's 16 this year.
Anyone here excited for Tetris Effect? 😁😁
I want to watch round 16 so baaaad
Я верю , Джонас победит!
Why is there always just 20 mins of CTWC Screen at the end of the videos
I figured it's so you aren't spoiled on the outcome by looking at the running time.
@@Hattes yeah that's usually the reason for artificially extending videos of competitive gaming
Yeah Tom Brady born in August 3rd
I will be dead by level 50..😫
Is it just me or does the male commentator sound like a middle schooler having a crush on the female commentator and trying to impress her. After all, she is a gamer girl, and that crushes middle school standards.
koryan is my winner
Only here because of alex xd
The girl talks like I'm at the presence of royalty. Sheesh.
I wish I could watch without the commentators. Just with the tetris music and the sounds of the room.
눈이 썩을 정도의 경기력이네..
Fake. No female commentator is this great. Jonas’ wife has to be a dude.
SQR VS ALEX is the most boring match ever ... it is even boring with that boring woman caster ..
Commentary annoying af boooom Tetris
That woman commentator is annoying
Think that's Jonas' wife.
Of all the commentators you could have picked you think Heather is annoying.
Imo Heather did a great job. Some people can’t really stand high pitch voices though, I guess... she did the commentary for the side station only btw.
I agree. I find the commentators to state the obvious. Its a matter of taste and the commentators this year is not my cup of tea either
