Best SummoningSalt comment I've ever seen 🤣🤣🤣

this shit had me rolling

Nowadays it's very quick for a world record video to be outdated. Alex got 13 million I watched live. Dog got 14 million and the longest level. Tristop crashed.

"Since he had finger speed Mike Tyson had never seen before, he easily got 37.2 million score.'

Cheering for you in every tournament. Keep it up!

Dude!!! Rock on and good luck!

Huge congrats on making it into a Summoning Salt video, it was completely deserved!

Seriously the biggest congrats. Gaming community loves you dude.

i hope you never stop trying to achieve the impossible. huge congrats to you!!

Kids got in touch with tetris during covid, they found the old TV and NES of their parents, that and twitch streams. During and right after covid the tetris scene exploded in popularity

Old men can't roll

It was when rolling got introduced

​@@kochen821 me, who's heard a bit about Tetris, watching the slow climb from 1.1 to 1.4 million, knowing that at some point the game will be absolutely destroyed with a 16 million run, but not knowing when That was interesting Still fun to watch even I know about the final run The suspense makes it even better

I just found out about hypertapping like…a week ago. So imagine my surprise when I get to chapter 4 at 27 minutes in. 🎉

"Maxed out" is a lie. You've watched summoning salt before, every video has someone saying "that's unbeatable" for it to almost immediately be broken xD

Flow state on a game like Tetris feels absolutely incredible too. I’ve never been a big Tetris player but in my experience with similar games it literally feels like you can see the future.

@@snoozbuster There's a reason human beings appreciate great art, establish meritocracies, climb Everest, and speedrun video games. Brilliance is its own dimension in the universe. One that most of us barely scratch the surface of, but all of us enjoy seeing the best of us attempt exploring. It's what generates things like fame and fortune, though the vast majority of us prefer to circumvent the prerequisite hard work involved, out of fear and laziness, so we can skip to the crude material rewards directly. In a mostly lifeless and hostile universe, pursuit of brillance and brilliant achievement, regardless of reward and recognition, is all that truly matters. Movies like Pi and Whiplash have laid out this simple truth rather aptly, as do each one of Summoning Salt's excellent videos. Most people turn away from this sort of thing due to the sheer level of difficulty, dismissing these pursuits - especially the ones that don't garner wealth - as a meaningless waste of time. Instead, we cut ourselves a break, relax, and focus on the human condition of resource gathering and reproducing. But deep down we all know that those activities are just a circular holding pattern that is maintained for the purpose of facilitating the pursuit of brilliance in all aspects of life, no matter how large or small. As history rolls on, the things we revere in museums are the artifacts of brilliance. It is, ultimately, the only part of us worth preserving. I would take scuti's game crash achievement over a billion dollars, any day of the week. Except of course, I actually wouldn't want to take it, since the entire point of an achievement like that is to earn it, not have it gifted to you. That's precisely what makes it worth more than the $billion$, a fact that most people fail to understand in their pursuit of destination above journey. Over past millenia, when philosophers discussed the overriding importance of truth and beauty, plus how the lesser of us despise those concepts and their expression out of envy and spite, this video is exactly what they were talking about. No amount of money, fame, or power in the world will ever enable someone to achieve what scuti did.

One passing thought can kill your entire run so one of the tactics is to literally clear your mind and stay "quiet" while in the zone so your brain doesn't accidentally have a thought. You're silencing your subconscious so you can use it instead of your body.

"and they're all dark green"

It's like anime powerscaling. Just being able to fly was an insane feat in early Dragon Ball, but the final villain of DBZ was effortlessly destroying planets and invading the afterlife. Though comparing Dragon Ball scaling to anime as a whole is extremely unfair - Aside from Gurren Lagann, which had galaxies being thrown like frisbees in its final episode.

@@Zarvanis Dw there are many anime where powerscaling goes completely fucked up, it's just that Dragon Ball starts at a cracked base (in like episode 13 or something Muten explodes the Moon)

@@WarrioJ”Memorize these arbitrary goofy ahh perimeters or else your game ends unceremoniously lmao”

@@pc-9826I honestly didn’t even notice.

@@pc-9826it’s a two hour vid he’s bound to repeat some words, don’t think anyone is too fussed.

Summoning Salt has one of the highest storytelling stats in KZfaq

To not turn the game into a "marathon" which is not the way the game was inteded to be played, in tournaments they implemented another and this time a real killscreen at level 39, so efficiency still has the relevance it deserve, turning it merely on survival was detrimental for the game

The music choice was also perfect

Ngl, I was absolutely flabbergasted at that part. I actually said 'No fucking way' out loud

I can't help but wonder if it was inspired by the section on Bob Beamon's record-breaking long jump in Jon Bois' documentary The Bob Emergency, since Salt has said Jon was a big influence for him.

@@S0RGEx he did another one for the mariners 2001 season, showing how much the team improved. I got the same vibes

@@S0RGEx same thought. Cool to find other jon bois enjoyers.

Like he said: "Kill it!" What a legend.

Same with huff and Eric! The Tetris community always seems so inviting and kind

Definitely my favourite moment in gaming history after seeing this (previously would've been OG's second TI win in DotA2). There's a lot of sportsmanship in speedrunning and highscore communities, but seeing someone have their accomplishment snatched from them, and still cheer for them live is so amazingly wholesome.

it was so bitter sweet !

You could sense the disappointment, but I'm glad that he achieved the crash for himself. Probably felt like closure. Though to be honest, I don't think he would have gotten nearly the amount of mainstream media coverage if he was first. Primarily because of his age.

That's very true, was really cool of him

Just your average JRPG story

Its like a classic RPG game. level 1: Kill Slime Final level: Kill God

just think: 6 years ago, getting 1.3 million was nearly impossible and 1.4 million was completely unheard of now the world record is 16 million

this comment killlllled me.

2018 - a 16-year-old beats Jonas Neubauer 2021 - a 16-year-old teaches you rolling 2023 - a 13-year-old breaks the game 2024 - a 15-year-old smashes world records

Caught me off guard too lmao

i know dude i missed it my first watch

he said it so nonchalantly that for a second i thought he was serious 😭

Also enjoyed that lol

I absolutely bursted out laughing into my pillow when I heard this exact statement! Like, dude! 😭

That's all super interesting, thanks for sharing! Getting to peek behind the curtain into what makes Tetris runs tick (beyond the sheer skill needed to control the pieces and the hours invested by each player to ingrain it into instinct) really adds to the journey everyone must have gone through, especially when looking at something like this as an outsider :)

Funny enough Retro Game Mechanics Explained and Displaced Gamers each released a video explaining the crash and looking at the game's code in detail less then 24 hours apart on the 6th/7th of March... :D

I'm a bit sad that the community chose to play without crash dodging... it would have made for such amazing stories

I thought Alex played on the original NeS and avoided the crash bugs because his score was so low. In another video he could be seen wondering why there was no crash.

@@skysheep747 He didn't know Tetris Gym patched crashes at the time. He was fully expecting a game crash... and then it didn't happen. So he kept going. A related glitch changes level palettes, so the 810-line level was supposed to be *charcoal*. But he had done that multiple times already, it was doable. But with that glitch patched, it wasn't charcoal- it was Greeeeeeeeen, as mentioned in the video. Which he had trouble with earlier. He had no idea the 810-level would be Greeeeeeen until he hit it... which is why he reacted like that.

obliteration

True but let’s face it my man ain’t lying 😂

RIP the goat

This is the kind of video that those "ahh what you record this with, a potato? 😂" comments were originally made for lol that was fucking atrocious 😂

​@@n1k0n_ he was really a kind soul. I loved jumping on his stream sometimes and talk to him. His chat was very kind, and we weren't much.

W comment

Thank you for introducing me to classic Tetris with your awesome videos

i'd wait for Tetris to reach 20XX. It's inevitable at this rate.

Everyone go watch game scout’s recent videos. Absolutely mind blowing sequence of events covered in super well made videos.

I also thank you for introducing me to classic Tetris.

When he said that 235 was different I was expecting like a 100 or a power of 2 like 256 or something like that. Nah just plus 800 and then it goes back to 10.

The game really just goes "This isn't even my final form" and pulls out like another three boss phases between the dark colours, the crashes, and the sudden additional 800 lines. Glitches bending the reality of the game just as how final bosses often bend reality is pretty insane.

I thought of 235 more like a Spirit Bomb. Like the game raising its arms and shouting, “Everyone, give me your pixels!!”

@@DefinitivNichtSascha And on console the crashes get unbelievably brutal towards the end of the game. Level 255 will automatically kill the player unless they push down on 5 out of the 7 pieces, and by the looks of it the game has lag issues at that stage too.

​ @maxdragonsoul5553 can confirm lag issues, did a TAS once of it, and I started to notice there was a longer delay between pieces after like 236. tbf it was a rom hack but still. And it's even worse than just 255, multiple levels in the final 6 crash if you don't push down the piece or flash the next box. btw not related to you directly but it is relevant to the thread, salt got one thing wrong in this video, and that's the 810 line level. It doesn't always happen on level 235, it can happen on different levels depending on your starting level, and if you start on level 19, the long level will be 235. It can be as early as level 219 if you start on levels 0-9

one can say you powered through the game

nah nobody uses the power button in real life, they flip the console and it gets unplugged.

Surely Poofesure would have ended the game by breaking the console

@@markymark443 He probably has 600 more laying around I didn't imagine how much money screaming at every game in existence could get you or how long you could do it without losing your voice until I saw him

😂

I love that interpretation

There are 100% moments of crushing defeat and amazing victory, just not of heroes. There is absolutely a plot, but it's just the player and the game, no other characters.

The blocks have names, so they can be considered characters.

if you watch ericicx video on the secret ending of tetris you may decide that there is an unintentional storyline to tetris from all the glitches that appear later on in the game

at rebirth actually a small mushroom pops up and says "The princess is in another castle"

Omg you are the guy from he summoning salt video

You're the man

A Fractal!! Sick B you’re so right. The amazing things that SS wasn’t able to pack into two hours boggle the mind

You're so kind hearted and cheered on Scuti even when it was your goal as well. Props for that sportsmanship, glad you got it as well! 😁

it's not speed running tho

why not ​@@vandypants

@@katiemorison7969 In this case, players were ussually going for higher scores and trying to play the game until it breaks, not who was the fastest. Time was not involved.

Sorry, I was being a bit cheeky. It's a great video.

@@Lamaneus They are racing to see who will achieve high scores first. This is a speed aspect. There is also the fact that they are operating the game at it's fastest speed. Beyond that? The English Language isn't wholly literal. You can run on a sidewalk. You can put trucks in car parks. Et cetera. The category of speedrunning STARTED in explicitly completing games quickly, but has since changed. To say "Yes but they are not literally running the game in a speedy manner" is just being perscriptivist and isn't reflective of how people actually talk

Everyone is so supportive

> *7 time world champion > Joseph Saelee was pooping off *pre-covid since he won the 2018 world championships back in his debut tournament run

And the big jump happened only few years ago, its so crazy how one invention could change everything

to be honest, i was in awe at the time too

@@EricICX yoo hi ericicx

@@EricICXomg hi! dude you are so incredible, amazing job!!!!!

I recommend looking up alex t as well because this video didn't even mention how he went on to prove himself after hitting the green slog (immediately after) absolutely insane

the video is as long as a full-fledged movie maybe after teaching your kids tetris and they play very, very well you should grab them some popcorn only for it to not be a popcorn flick and instead use it as a way to obliterate their minds for me this is equally difficult to comprehend as progression into graham's number

Jonas was a man among men. The World & Eternal Champ shall be missed.

He was a pillar of the classic Tetris community. Always helped anyone and everyone to be better at the game, and at everything else. Seriously one of the best people I've ever had the pleasure of talking to.

Like Michael Schumacher said: Records are Ment to be broken

The way Jonas invited in the next generation, despite them overtaking him as the top players, was incredible. Apparently, there was a normal dinner many of the top players would go out to after the tournament, and he made sure to invite Joseph (and his mom) along as well because he was now part of that. It would have been SO easy for someone who had been at the top for so long to not react positively to these kids "invading" Tetris, but him being such an inviting person completely set the tone for the community perfectly. And so when a few years later, Dog and the next generation started taking over and Joseph was no longer the top guy, he was the same way to the new kids, and it kept on going like that.

Great story telling. I turned in the video for background noise but couldn't look away.

War…war never changes. But warfare does.

A seemingly neverending darkness that breaks the existing rules of the games reality. Reminds me of house of leaves and the doom mod, myhouse

I heard Matt Turk could do it blindfolded. With one hand.

RIP

​@@speerunscompared Do you know what "competitive" means? Or "decent" while we're at it? Edit: This is also factually incorrect, the first decent or better (read: amazing) hypertapper was Korya. Did we even watch the video

@@speerunscomparedhe also died on 1/5/21 so didn’t exactly get a chance to do otherwise. With his understanding of the game and with rolling on the way, there is little doubt he would have been able to do it.

I’d like to see a cutscene of Jonas trying to hyper tap. Like Shooter McGavin trying to drive like Happy Gilmore when nobody was looking.

“If I can’t hit the button fast enough… I’ll make the button hit me faster”. Absolutely insane tech that changed Everything for Tetris.

It is probably the most significant change in input method since Thresh popularized WASD + mouse configuration.

On the same controller everyone was using already (so no arguments about validity like how some tech in SMB is almost keyboard only) that was faster to use, easier to perform and was even less physically taxing on the hands One in a million discovery, other games only dream of having this type of tech It's crazy that it even changed the fundamental way the game was played from how much you could optimize your score before the kill screen with a very real cap to turning it into a pure survival game with an obscenely high ceiling Like, we probably would've stopped in the 1.5 million range if rolling was never discovered

@@sehtuk3953 This tech is so good that is actually being used in other games speedruns. One that use it a bit is Mega Man X Series speedruns, where it is used to rapid-fire/slash dash cancel.

If someone time travel to when NES is first released, one can enter a game conference, earn >10 million points, and just blow the gaming world.

I wonder what more modern titles we could find similar types of hidden difficulty/jank in if we explored deep enough

@@marklund117 not a lot at all, this only works with tetris because of the type of game it is, a simple ass puzzle game, slot the thing correctly enough times and level up, i can't even begin to think of a game that simple nowadays, even if there is, the coding is way too tight and advanced to allow such things unintentionally. there are hardware limitations at play here not just the game, literally the console couldn't handle what was happening. so you will absolutely never see this in modern gaming. jank for sure, every any% speedrun uses glitches and jank, but what happened with tetris is impossible in today's titles.

It inspires me to write my code as shitty as possible ❤

@@Myhaay It has nothing to do with being a puzzle game, and everything to do with being on the NES.

@@DrMonty-ng5fo it does, because aesthetic glitches and the way it breaks does not absolutely destroy the game. and the way it works, same scren, same purpose. you can't break super mario to have more levels can you? or contra? can you play contra for 200 levels? no, because the game has a definite start and end.

Killed by Pfizer.

this was news to me. kinda bummed this video didn't feature some kind of memorial for him

Shame he passed on before the Rolling was even used widely, he probably could have adapted and we might have even seen a redemption story play out with him winning another World Championship, or maybe even multiple again.

@@kronosomni2805 Yea, there was a video he did before passing where he was showing a drummer how to play Tetris and the drummer was showing him how to drum, and when he explained the concepts of Tetris to the drummer, the first thing the drummer did was play around with how to hit the buttons with multiple fingers to move faster. I feel like that was on the path to rolling right there, and with how amazing Jonas was at stacking, I really would have loved to see Jonas rolling.

@@sybrwookie Drummers at higher skill levels are essentially playing Tetris in a way. When you think about it, the notes are like the pieces, the sticks are the D-Pad, and the Drum is the Controller.

I don't see how you can't call the charcoal level "midnight." It comes after dusk, is even darker, and to finish the game you have to get past midnight. Fits pretty perfectly.

@@EGarrett01 Did the coffee cow send you?

Like somehow the game itself is being madly busted and having a deep JRPG vibe, the first stopping point where lv29 is too fast to even have a chance to complete, and then the rolling technique is invested deep, more of the dark challenges, even the level between 30~145 is a hurt in the ass ,with lv138 the color started to getting weird, it's like telling you that you have entered the region of forbidden. And then you get to the dusk lv146 and " the Lightless night" lv148, the " end of the world" lv155 and after, and here somehow we're in the "deep endless forest" lv235 aka you complete 1 level is in a 81 level with in a dark green, and where stand in the end of the road is "the rebirth" in lv256.

Unironically, TikTok brain rotten kids could be better at playing Tetris cause the game has a continuous stream of stimulation and visual information being given to you. Literally there is not a single second to relax, your brain is ALWAYS active. And people crave that activity. If a link was really to exist this could be an incredibly funny and interesting study to conduct

@@endeav0r_49the children crave colors

@@tuckertucker6602 well, Tetris does have plenty of them

KZfaq, Twitch, TikTok have made doing precisely this sort of thing, playing this sort of game, not only more easily seen than it would have been even 20 years ago, but viable as a means to make money. As the generation that grew up in the heydays of these games ages out of being the "masters," it's almost easy to see that younger people might step into that void. Add to that the love for nostalgia-bait that seems to be taking over the internet and the aforementioned ability to be seen and make some money...I am not amazed at all. That said, thanks to you for pointing it out. It's a neat thought to think the very early generations of games are still being appreciated by the young of today.

Totally unsurprised that a kid today would enjoy Tetris. It's a classic puzzle game and the rudimentary graphics don't make it any worse . When they want to play old games with jank and terrible graphics like Double Dragon or something. Then I raise an eyebrow. 😄

W.

I first saw the blindfold punch out video. Set me onto the speed running community and video game deep lore. I love these groups

From a luddite who knows nothing about Tetris this video still made me feel feelings like almost nothing Hollywood has done in years.

Yeah, I know the feeling. I had a Reddit post make it into a Rules Lawyer video

I did not know keyboard is also allowed.
