It's Tetris Time

It's that time of year again, the Classic Tetris World Championship (CTWC) is underway.

You can catch it on Twitch here and their second twitch which has other early bracket games here.

You can also watch on YouTube, and after the Championship is complete edited versions of the games usually appear some months after.

If you're new to Classic Tetris and Tetris in general, I would recommend watching this video, it's the first CTWC video I ever watched and I fell in love with it instantly. Joseph vs Jonas (RIP) is a classic, it's their most viewed video for a reason after all.

Even after all these years, the Classic Tetris scene continues to evolve, with new gameplay techniques pushing the game and its players to their limits. This video showcases some recent Tetris history, which even made the news when it happened last year.

If you don't care about any of this however, there is one thing I would like whoever reads this to know. 

If you experience something traumatic (like a car accident), playing Tetris in the aftermath can help to lower the amount of intrusive memories regarding the event.

You can read more about that here.

[edit] The tournament is finished now! It's well worth a watch, so many exciting matchups and games.
