We take advantage of the new Team Battle feature by playing as a unit in Tetris 99! During one glorious moment, I carried us to victory. Otherwise, we had a lot of fun talking about Star Wars, the holiday season, and Disney movies!

When Tetris 99 introduced Invictus Mode, I switched to playing that mode exclusively. Part of it stemmed from believing that I have the skills to compete at that level. Wins are sparse, but I’ve won enough Invictus matches to feel like this is the right mode for me.
Beyond that, I also chose to play Invictus matches as a means of attracting viewers to the stream. Skill can play a major factor when it comes to drawing an audience, and I felt like I had to play at Invictus-level difficulty in order to stand a chance against other streamers in the directory. Even though the focus of my show isn’t so much about competitive play, I figured that players streaming classic Tetris 99 would get left behind.
Skill still goes a long way, but the factors that determine viewership are more complicated than that.
Where we droppin!?
A big free update just shook up Tetris 99 in a big way, including a new team-based battle mode. Let’s break it down!
Though I’ve never been formally against viewers playing games with me on stream, I officially open the gates for this Tetris 99 stream! Thanks for the games everyone! While we compete for the #1 spot, we discuss my recent experience throwing axes, share my most recent Pokemon plushie addition, and I die inside as I literally delete the stream during the middle of the show!

Our weekly tradition of Tetris 99 continues! I try my best to win in Invictus mode while also discussing a bevy of topics. How scary is COPPA on YouTube? Do aliens exist? Where can I get deep fried turkey? And a surprise appearance from my favourite Pokemon when we close out the show with a few Pokemon Sword and Shield raids!

I take a break from my Pokemon Sword and Shield binge to play more Tetris 99! While I stack blocks at a furious rate, I share my early impressions of the new Pokemon game, indulge in a chat about streaming equipment, and discuss times when our personal opinions about games differ from the popular opinion!

With Pokemon Sword and Shield on the horizon, it’s time to unlock the Pokemon theme in Tetris 99 as part of the Maximus Cup! While we play to be the very best (like no one ever was), I share some Tetris tips, the recent story of how I got to see the NBA championship trophy in real life, and the importance of using gaming as a platform for making a positive change on the world!

As if participating in a 25-hour marathon wasn’t difficult enough, the Extra Life site struggled to stay online due to multiple DDoS attacks. Even so, we powered through and raised $1,218 for the Children’s Miracle Network of Hospitals. Simply amazing!
