Clarifying notes from Hector Fly - he's been rolling since 1983 specifically, and he's been able to get speeds of up to 26hz on the d-pad with his 2 finger method for NES controllers. It's possible that it also may work for high level Tetris gameplay if one were to practice enough. This article goes more into detail on his history with rolling: www.twingalaxies.com/feed_details.php/6151/the-man…

    I've made a follow-up video on what's developed in the community with rolling in the few weeks afterwards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2xCQT0BUcw If you are interested in learning rolling or joining the conversation about the playstyle, the main hub for community discussion at the moment is the #rolling-realm channel in the Classic Tetris Monthly discord server!

  • @Mayrink.
    The fact that we are still out here revolutionizing the mere concept of pressing a button on a controller that is almost 40 years old. I love this community.
  • @MrJanes-cl5sj
    its crazy to think that 2 years later a 13 year old would reach the kill screen using this technique
  • @beware_ofdogg
    Imagine knowing this trick in the 80s, you’d look like a Greek myth
  • @FlyHec
    It wasn't 10 years ago that I first rolled on buttons. It was in 1983.
  • @tropicalpalmtree
    Shoutout to cheez for making Blue Scutis achievement possible.
  • @white_145

    RIP Jonas, you'll always be remembered, revered, missed and loved, brother.
  • I think the most impressive thing about Tetris as a competitive game is that it no longer becomes about learning every aspect inside the game, but rather every aspect outside of it, including the controller.
  • @gasser5001
    RIP Jonas. A true Tetris Legend. We wouldn't be watching this video if it weren't for him!
  • @four-en-tee
    Tetris is finally entering its own 20XX scenario.
  • @yojimboliferow
    "i wonder how they'll be pushing buttons for tetris 37 years from now." -Everybody in 1984
  • @whouse7
    Here after Blue Scuti crashed the game. Great video!
  • Funny, this is really similar to a technique called Wank DI (lol) for Smash 64, where instead of moving the stick in quarter circle motions to get more smash DI inputs, you instead move the entire controller with an up and down motion really fast to get better results (hence the stupid name lol)
  • I WISH I could be so passionate about literally anything in my life as these people are about frickin Tetris

  • @Bobdd0
    Your enthusiasm and clear communication is really making this community all too easy to dive into! I'm learning as much as i can since the True Kill Screen just happened!
