I can't believe I watched 3 videos in a row and close to 4 hours of people doing jigsaw puzzles. Great content, great delivery, brava.

[@CatyCody]

SAME! I don't even do puzzles, but I was fully invested.

[@Sherri83]

Same 😂

[@limvittra4775]

[@melimsah]

I loved seeing all the puzzlers in the pairs that were like "I cannot leave this puzzle unfinished!!!!"

[@rmsgrey]

Good thing it was the last event of the day!

[@melimsah]

Alejandro seems like the kind of sweet soul who the moment Kristen (or anyone really) beats him, he'd be super excited for them.

[@Yoruake89]

This is such a wholesome thought. The Livestream was so wholesome too. I will most certainly watch next years championship too. Just because it was so much fun to talk about things like: "How long will it take the first person to finish? Who will finish first?" Sarahs Mum was in the chat (Shoutout to her, she was AMAZING)! This is the most wholesome sportsevent on earth :D

[@PreservationEnthusiast]

Yes, you are right about Alejandro. The kindest, most humble, and nicest puzzler out there. A true champion and the most skilful. He can remember and place pieces fastest. He has unreal skill like Kristen. Another person in the comments was questioning Alejandro. They couldn't even spell his name right! I can only assume it was jealousy on their part.

[@aartadventure]

10:30 Alejandro can recognise Kristen is a bit disappointed here (despite her incredible 2nd place effort!), and even makes an effort to comfort and congratulate her. He is so sweet. It would be amazing to see them do a pairs comp together!

[@TrinaMadeIt]

It also looks like all the footage of him is sped up just because he moves SO FAST!!! It’s insane to watch.

[@PreservationEnthusiast]

@@aartadventure Kristen only got closer to Alejandro this time because she learned from his two handed style. Previously she was using a one handed style. More hands. More efficient! This was a fact Karen failed to mention. She just said Kristen got better but really she was emulating the master. We may see future competitions where Kristen will win. These two are so far ahead of other people. It is about memory and insane piece/colour recognition as well being able to rotate pieces in your mind or find them again instantly. It's not something you can teach at their level. It would be good to see them do pairs together, but I don't see it happening as they are in different countries and can't practice together.

[@aubreyfeatherston]

I nearly cried watching Alma’s mother after her team win! So impressive! Amazing job Karen on your placements in all competitions! I was biting my nails watching the teams finals!

[@emmi3785]

I did cry. So sweet. Never would have thought I would cry watching puzzle competition video, but here we are. 😍🥲

[@SJB-k4r]

That’s my team! 😀 I’m SJ.

[@SourRazberry]

I started crying 😂 I won’t even lie. I was overcome with happiness for them and how great I felt that she’s being encouraged beyond her wildest dreams and accomplishing so much so young because of it.

[@xchriissyx]

yup I did cry 😅 it was such a beautiful moment though!

[@ameliegifford1477]

I am currently crying over that Lol

[@finn5568]

Never thought i watch a Jigsaw Puzzle Championship. Thanks for making it accessible. I don't think i'd enjoy watching people puzzle for hours but watching your recaps with you commentary is great.

[@bluegreen5377]

I think that the fact that Alejandro was consistently in top 3 of everything is a really good metric to show that he's truly best of the best. And while he seems to be really gracious, Kristin finishing right after him will likely motivate Alejandro to train for next year more than last year's win. I also really understand Kristin's disappointment, for a while I thought she was going to finish first. And it was only 30 seconds.

[@jorrdan.]

She was still 7 minutes closer to Alejandro this year which shows that she’s improving and is truly a contender for first

[@MasterInHD]

Crazy on how a sport/competition where 95% of the competitors are women. A man still manages to be on top lol

[@M_SC]

@@MasterInHDwow you are so fun

[@MasterInHD]

@@M_SCI’m not familiar with these competitions as I was randomly shown a video of this channel a couple of weeks ago and that’s the first thing I noticed. “Wow, a Sport where there’s more women than men”. Is that something bad to point out? Stop being a softy.

[@dontknowdocare]

Feels like watching a sports/ competition anime! The undisputed champion, new rivals showing up, the different styles & personalities. You're doing a great job conveying the puzzling world to a wider audience. Thanks Karen!

[@jlu3ai]

Don't leave out the best part, where every opponent sooner or later becomes friends. :)

[@linusgustafsson2629]

Now that you mention it, I'm surprised there isn't puzzle competition anime to watch. Oh well, at least I got Chihayafuru. Though thinking a little more about it, I guess puzzling is harder to show someone being skilled at without just making them to swishy swoshy movements in the speed of light.

[@albineeien6300]

I reaaaaally need a manga about that. It would be great !

[@ElizabethNicoleSchwartz]

Second place as a team is truly so impressive!! But honestly 10th in pairs and your solo finish were also very impressive. I don't think I'm even capable of puzzling that quickly.

[@joadbreslin5819]

When you look at how far behind her sister is, it's clear that she has a lot more talent than the average person.

I was unreasonably excited to see this video pop up. Finally the closure I've been craving @_@

[@Jasper_4444]

Being unreasonably excited for this, is entirely reasonable.

[@KeepCaffeinated]

At least you’ve developed plenty of patience as a one piece fan, waiting on hiatuses/weekly breaks/time skips

[@SixOThree]

I don't even do puzzle and I was excited to see this video. I do buy them as gifts, so at least I have some legit reason to watch this channel.

You waited? She took forever to upload, so I just watched the videos of the other contestants

[@Jasper_4444]

I waited.

[@KarenPuzzles]

Today's video is a special treat for all of the Czech speakers out there. I tried to get an idea of what they said using Google Translate, but if anyone wants to do a real translation, please leave it below!

[@natali0710]

59:43 “Aneta, Hi” “Greetings to home, to work and everyone who support us, thank you” “Also greetings to everyone, to the cottage and thank you for all the support, from family and friends. You guys are great!” “Thank you to the whole family. Hi to all my friends who cheered for us.”

[@0Marty0]

The chanting for Tereza: "Whoever isn't jumping isn't Czech, hop hop hop" It's a thing we do for all sport competitions

[@Zuzle93]

First of all - I watched the group finals live and I have to say that I have never experienced such conflicted feelings about who I am actually rooting for in my life :D And as a result I have to say that I am glad that you guys took the first two places, regardless of the final position! Translation: 1. - Hi Anetka! 2.- Greetings back home, to work, and to everyone supporting us! Thanks! 3.- I also greet everyone at the cottage, thanks for the support to all, family and friends. You're great! 4.- Thank you to the entire family, hi to all friends who cheered, hi! (PS: Anyone from the Czech Republic, feel free to correct this translation; active English isn't my strong suit.)

[@kristyyh]

There was also a fun moment in duos when tereza couldn't find where to put one of the last pieces, so she just kept repeating in a very dumbfounded tone "i don't know where it goes. where does it go??" And then finally "oh, here it goes" 😄💖

[@DarkMoonlitFairy]

I love how the finishes by 10 minute intervals at 19:15 is basically a perfect bell curve :D

[@msinvincible2000]

Congratulations Karen. I think that your biggest victory was not the second and tenth places, but the fact that you were an inspiration for Kathi and for the author of that puzzle who watched your videos.

[@Vennele]

YESSS. ❤❤❤❤ It's so awesome.

[@Kumagoro42]

I'll be rooting for Kristin so hard next year (well, for Karen too!). I think she's proven she's the only one right now who can beat Alejandro. She was so close!

[@Trollololololful]

Khati is amazing too considering she's so young. I think there's a championship in her future. I felt so bad for Kristin. She looked so devastated after coming oh so close.

[@midori8576]

Kathi may also have a chance, i thin the pressure has gotten to her with the finals and everything, or she could have just been lucky before, but she did finish seconds after Alejandro in quarterfinals

[@lyn6768]

12:30 They're chanting "Who's not jumping isn't Czech, hop hop hop (jump jump jump)!" (: We do this chant at various sports competitions and such.

I know it is super easy to fall into the trap of comparing yourself to others, but don’t beat yourself up too much when you’re going toe to toe with speed legends like Alejandro and Kristin! Be proud that you accomplished getting to the finals, and make sure to learn from those around you and you’ll constantly improve 👍

Congratulations Karen. You are such a kind and wonderful person cheering on and have nothing but wonderful things to say about the people around you. I started watching you during the 2020 lockdowns and it's incredible to see what you have accomplished in the last three years.

[@speedbully_84]

The greatest thing for me through all three videos is actually the amazing audience and support between all the puzzlers. People stopped their own puzzle to cheer, and congratulate others, and the audience cheered almost as much for 18th place as they did for 1st. And that's after hours and hours watching puzzle piece after puzzle piece. Have to say that was a little surprising and really heartwarming! And congrats on 2nd and 10th! ;-)

[@cryssanie]

This was a beautiful ride. You can really feel the joy and excitement about puzzling from these videos. Also, I am so happy for the Czech team victory (and for the Czech fans to be so devoted, kdo neskáče není čech! :-D ), we're a small country and it's always so nice to see how many awesome skilful people can be found here

[@Yoruake89]

That pairs puzzle was so brutal... I never could have solved it. But I loved the livestream, the whole atmosphere was so wholesome! This was great!

Never expected to cry at a puzzle competition video, and more than once! Incredible video, really felt all of the joy and excitement of these people people just getting to do what they love and achieve such personal wins, regardless of where they placed. Kept tearing up at the montage of finishes and celebrations in individuals, and then lost it for a second time at the team with the 8yo girl. Such pure elation and love. If you ever come visit Australia, we'd be so happy to have you!!

[@dark1nikol]

I'm in shock! First of all I've never heard about puzzle championships and I love puzzles since my childhood. Second of all I thought that my country doesn't participate and now I see that czechs are really good! I've never done puzzles in any other way than just for fun and I feel I would be very slow since time never mattered to me but now I want to try some competiton too. It's so fun. Yesterday I found your channel and I already saw hours of competitons. Thanks Karen for sharing this love for puzzles with me. Greetings from Czech republic.

WOOT for your whole team! Placing second for the pairs for your other half is so impressive & that was a very cool but very tricky competition puzzle. Only needing an extra minute and a half to finish is nothing to sneeze at and YAY FOR CUBE! HOLY MOLY!!! Congrats on Second! That's HUGE!!! Y'all must be so happy. And shoutout to Alma!

In a troubled world, it's touching to witness such decency and wholesomeness. Puzzlers seem like the best kind of people.

Since I can't participate in these events I love watching them. I was watched just about all of the Worlds livestream this year and last year. I also watched this year's Great Canadian Puzzle competition. I heard that the Australian National in Feb 2024 will be livestreamed and I plan to watch that too.

[@SuperMrsMar]

The US Nationals plan to live stream aa well. The US has a national membership that meets once a month to puzzle via zoom, maybe you can see if your country has that as well (I'm assuming Canada?). The US one allows for more serious puzzlers a well as those who just want to socialize. I attended last month for the first time and really enjoyed it.
