Yay! Part 2! So excited for part 3 in 2029

I knew these jokes would be coming lol

At this rate it'll be out roughly February 2022

Careful, or next one might be a YT short

[@JdMfX_]

Ahh this video is great, I feel like I just unlocked new memories. Keep it up!

[@warrickmiller7959]

Got my new tetris cartridge for my nes today, so alot of practice is going into this

How's life?

"for context, let's rewind a decade" back to part 1!

Oh yeah, this series is a thing. I forgot

How dare you forget.

[@sagenight3]

oh its that thing that was missing for like 2 years, glad it came, late or not.

[@dogplayingtetris]

Extremely well made! I can feel the hype of the tournament through this video

[@ryanamburgy2791]

Future 2 time champ mark mah words

[@Cool70sfreak]

You've gotta give a lot of props to David though. He's really done a lot to make the CTWC scene (as well as monthly tetris) more noticed and recognized. Personally, I don't think I'd ever have a way to practice CT enough (no, the version on Switch's NES service doesn't count because you're not really using classic hardware or a classic controller) to participate despite having played the game quite a good amount over the years, but if I could ever manage the funds and the time, I would honestly go just to watch and hang out with some of the best Tetris players in the world, because a lot of these people seem pretty chill. I mean, it's hard to imagine toxicity and bad attitudes over Tetris, but nowadays, you can never tell what video game will experience a poorly-behaved fanbase, so I'm glad Tetris seems to have mostly escaped that fate thus far.

[@TTParadigm]

For sure, this really can't be understated. David is doing a great job cataloging everything for the community. He's definitely helped a lot of new players be introduced into the scene

[@vlongo26]

The switch doesn't even have nes tetris available, never has.

[@svenwouters9547]

Oof, I remember Jonas vs Paul and it was intense. (also thanks for bringing the boom girl back into my memory)

[@LouieSkouie]

Yes! I am finally a cartoon! Thank you, David.

[@PieceDependencyPodcast]

Part 2 is here 😄🙌

[@bigyeet8252]

Been waiting forever, yesssssssssss!!!

[@tytris]

Late jokes aside, this series is extremely high quality and I can definitely see why it takes so long to come out (especially since you're working on lots of other videos, too). Your experience videos are really making me want to go to an in-person competition one day... Keep up the great work, and no rush!

[@czarjordan]

8:45 how I feel whenever scout uploads a new video

[@kelseyvision]

can't wait for South Carolina experience video to be published in 2025

[@jordantorres8735]

Nooooooo I can’t wait any longer. Please tell me part 3 is ready and you’re just trying to build a little suspense before it’s release in the next few days…please

[@TL_BananaGreen]

So glad that David didn't forget about this series

[@ErenMichelet]

IT'S OUT LET'S GOOOOOO. Thanks for the amazing video Scout!!!

[@sonicsophie]

YES! Was so excited to see this in my sub box today. Knowing how 2020 panned out, and the 2021 tournament being virtual again, it was amazing seeing everyone together here in 2019. It’s great that online play has opened it up to so many talented new players, but you really can’t beat the atmosphere here! I’m in London and am desperate to see it in person one day…. I’ll make it one day! 😅 can’t wait for part three!

[@thesparxeffect9734]

You are a legend in the Tetris community Scout. We all appreciate what you're doing here on KZbin, Tetris players and non Tetris alike.

[@1sta495]

As long as the final episode is finished befoe 2023 i am happy

[@GuardianPsycho]

After the year, almost 2, that the world and tetris community has had. I don't blame this for being so late and needing a part 3. Glad to see the behind the scenes of the first ever live CTWC I watched on twitch. Can't wait for the next part. Keep up the great work.

[@YusifTetris]

CTWC organizers are making this year's championship online too so that you can finish the CTWC 2019 series.

[@Kibi_Byte]

Love these vids scout, especially the drawings of people!

[@Tetrasaurus_]

This really is a pogchamp moment

[@Xplayer007]

It's nice to see how far you've come as an editor. The production is so clean now!

[@eninn]

Props to you Scout, for including some songs in the exact same timestamp as you did in the 2018 video (e.g. 'HOME - Hold' in Qualifying Day). I've wacthed that video so many times and I just got so happy when I noticed you had used the same tracks...I don't know why :-)

[@MartonR]

Thank you for making these! its so much fun seeing where the game was only a few years back compared to where is it today 😅

[@AdamSmith-ys2qq]

These videos are great! The last one was so well edited and I’m sure this one is too

[@TheBronzeSword]

You have a wonderful way of storytelling that keeps me at the edge of my seat the whole way through. Waiting eagerly for part 3

[@superbanana3398]

Boom Shakalaka baby!!!

[@TTParadigm]

Hell yeah, so glad to see this!!

[@dpro1174]

when i saw jonas's name at 4:00 i literaly said "oh yeah he hasnt died yet" like i was watching a fricking anime.

[@totalradnes5201]

Brought me right back! So many feelies!! Thanks for this.

[@Rubienlily]

so part 2 exists huh... can’t wait to see your reaction on mega eliminating jonas in part 3

[@DecayedPony]

Never thought I'd be so excited and click so fast on a tetris video.

[@edwintan4066]

Brilliant video, David. Amazing to think this event was less than 2 years ago but feels - to me anyway - like from a different age, given the way the scene's evolved since then and, of course, the pandemic.

[@balbar_b]

Pog Part 2 is here!!! :D

[@tetristime9691]

Oh yeah, been waiting for a part 2, too bad I didnt start playing nes tetris until right after ctwc 2019

[@JustDylans]

Just watched Ecstasy of Order last night, glad this came out today

[@reedhanson5945]

cant wait for part 3. bringing back all the memories

[@DrMegaGaming]

I already know this will be good

[@UzzyT.]

Wheyyyy about time! Look forward to part 3 :)

[@badger713]

Love it. Great with some lore for context too. :)

[@marethyumoros1741]

Me: Yeahhhhh, PART 2 BABYYYYYYY Also me : THERE'S A PART 3???!!! Thanks for the entertaining vid btw!

[@The8bitFighter]

@agamescout you should do a video on Tetris ELO. It hasn't been updated since 2020, but it'd great if it were used more so that us casual fans have an up-to-date resource to see how the players are doing. If you did a video, it might help draw attention to it.

[@aGameScout]

Tetris ELO is definitely on my list of video topics to cover in the future! Also, it is continually updated! Here is a direct link to the live sheet: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NUwqOotckIdSRH2FdfhBRHPU84N6EaRBM9BDkx5nDkU/edit#gid=274797647

[@neo6411]

Glad to see part 2 now! Wonder how the next offline CTWC will pan out.

[@charliewallin1210]

[@matthollandsf]

I agree

[@randomzombie9192]

Now to wait till 2023 for part 3!

[@linggao2602]

I get it’s a big event and it’s probably still fresh in your mind for the most part 2 years later, but you can still remember the details?

[@aGameScout]

I wrote the initial outline of the script at the beginning of 2020 😅

[@hwp0290]

Wow it came out fast

[@WorldsBestHector]

Soon ™️

[@thebestdonkeyintheworld4743]

see you in 2022 for part 3

[@SmellieTeto]

LESS GOOO

[@Robert_McGarry_Poems]

Yes!

[@leolucam78luis87]

*Wipes off eyes* So my eyes are correct

[@ReturnWinnerYGO]

Next Video will be so hard for me to watch, because of a certain match in round 1... Looking forward though

[@aGameScout]

yeah, it is tough and completely changes the emotions of the moment in retrospect. I ended up changing the script from what I originally wrote last year for that section.

[@ReturnWinnerYGO]

@@aGameScout I thought so, even before what happened this year, that specific match was hard for me to watch, but now it just hits on a completely different level. But I have no worries, that you will cover it perfectly!

[@hayabusa8314]

I read this starting comment and knew exactly what you were talking about. I may start crying again when that gets brought up. 😞
