    I'd be willing to bet the classic Tetris community wouldn't exist at all without Jonas. Every other name from the early days absolutely contributed, but had Jonas not been here, I really don't think it would have ever gained traction.

      Either it never would've or it would've taken a lot longer then it did.. at the minimum he brought it into the forefront much sooner than it otherwise would've been... all tetris skills aside he was such a nice cool individual. They really don't make people like him.

      if u want a comparison, dr mario had a small community at the same time as Jonas rose to the top, but lacked an ambassador and superstar, as a result, the comminity is about the same size today as it was back then, they have a world championship just like ctwc but it never gained the same amount of popularity and player depth internaitonally as tetris..the difference is Jonas! if Jonas had been in dr Marios tetris would be similar to where Dr Mario is today, both games are similar, similar age same platform, but dr Marios did not have Jonas like tetris had, and having great commentators also helped and a great production team especially when tray came aboard it become alot more viewer friendly and made watching tetris alot easier for those not into the scene yet wich attracted and inspered new egenration of younger player and more players to tetris whiel dr Mario sstayed almost the same as before. there where other that helped , Joseph, Jeff but without Jonas their impact would not be the same and the interest would not be the same.

    We need to keep these types of videos up to show why Jonas is forever the GOAT of Classic Tetris. Already seeing younger members of the community disputing the fact that Jonas is the greatest to play the game. Not only for his championship dominance but most importantly his dedication to grow the community. Records get broken, new play styles are developed, and the talent continues to evolve at a shocking pace, but no player will ever have the impact on the game like Jonas did.

    I'm heavily invested in the Modern Tetris scene, formerly playing in and now hosting tournaments for it. It is completely accurate to say that I would not be anywhere close to as invested in the game without Jonas' presence, introducing me to classic and modern tetris alike, always treating folks like me like family.
    Ever since his passing, anything I would do would be in his name, trying to push the scene in a positive direction. I'm so proud of the classic players for pushing the game and the competitive scene to such heights, and I can't wait to see where everything goes.
    LYMYMI, Jonas

    Great video. His final tournament victory came over Eric, who later won the CTWC. As a player in my 30's, I like to joke that Jonas' last act was to prove that the younger generation is fallable. He was a class act, not elitest in the slightest.
