Tetris IMMORTALS - Tetris World Championship FINAL! - Live WR SMASHED - EricICX vs Fractal CTWC 2022

[@EricICX]

I said it in the post game interview, but I'll say it one more time: CTWC was the best three days of my life so far. The joy of meeting so many people and having so much fun with everyone playing a 30-year-old block game that we all love for some reason can't be stated in words. Thank you everyone ❤❤❤ Love you all

[@EricICX]

also since I didn't get a chance to shill myself in the post game interviews: I stream at twitch.tv/ericicx, and I'll be trying to stream at least once a week at 7:30 PM eastern time, either on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday, depending on my college workload. Might not be able to use a mic depending on the circumstances, but it'll still be fun either way. Hope to see you there! ❤

[@tylersheedy8578]

Congrats Eric! I’ve never smiled so much watching a game of Tetris, both of you are so talented and it is an incredible joy to watch!

[@flyingsquirrel3271]

Dude! Congratulations for 2nd place!! After that first game I knew one thing: I would kinda feel sorry for whoever gets silver here because both of you totally deserve the title! After one more game I actually wanted *you* to win because of the superior stacking you were consistently showing. Also the way you got out of bad situations in "kill"screen was just mind blowing and super entertaining to watch. Must have been exhausting! Congrats again and thanks for the show :)

You were mostly better in terms of scoring efficiently. The only tiny difference probably is in terms of stamina I guess. Still, well done to both of you for having finally broken the dominance of the brothers at CTWC.

Fractal was better pre 29, but Eric's performance at "Death" screen was absolutely insane.

[@xenotypos]

Tbh, several players seem better than Eric pre-29, what really mattered in the past: efficiency etc.. But now that post-29 is everything, it seems being more efficient doesn't change a thing.

[@NaNa_W4NT5_F3MNM5]

@@xenotypos I think it still matters because having a higher score at Lv. 29 gives a cushion of sorts for when you top out that your opponent has to chase down. I feel like it would be much more mentally taxing to know you have to chase down a score rather than it's your opponent that has to chase you down.

It's so hard to achieve 2 million points for both players in a single match (which is the new WR in CWTC history) by using this technique. Congrats Eric and Fractal, the new champion and new runner-up respectively! That's so amazing! We will miss you so much, the legendary Tetris player, Jonas.

2 million points is literally 2 maxouts back to back. Funny how just a few years ago even a single maxout during comp was considered a monumental achievement.
