BeaIank | 1,628 Events Team · Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Today we lost a giant. One that represented Classic Tetris and brought much joy to a lot of people. Rest in peace, champ. https://thectwc.com 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arch_8ngel | 1,597 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Definitely a sad passing. He was a great guy, and on the Tetris front one of the most humble people you could imagine to carry the mantle of champion for as many years as he did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeevan | 8,915 Events Helper · Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 This popped up on my thread today! Almost like the bob ross of tetris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumez | 2,969 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 RIP Jonas was a great guy that I had the good fortune to hang out with on multiple occasions, and it's partly thanks to him that the 2019 European Tetris Championship which I was central in organizing turned out as great as it did. He will be missed a lot. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat-Doug | 5,105 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 I saw the news this morning. It's really unfortunate. Here's a solid article about him for anybody that wasn't familiar with him. https://www.vice.com/amp/en/article/5988gb/this-bartender-is-secretly-the-greatest-tetris-player-in-the-world?__twitter_impression=true 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbd39 | 2,026 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I just saw this this morning on Twitch. I was a big fan and often visited his Twitch channel. This is awful. RIP. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzeshield | 293 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Horrible news. The word is that he just collapsed out of nowhere, and people are speculating that it might have been an aneurysm. I guess he and Heather had just moved to Hawaii only a couple days beforehand. I watched part of Joseph Saelee's video from yesterday but couldn't take more than a few minutes, as the poor guy was totally distraught. I didn't know that they were close friends (in a little brother - big brother kind of way). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
