[11] On June 9, 2024, Thach beat two-time previous champion Michael Artiaga ("dogplayingtetris") to earn his first Classic Tetris World Championship title.
[13]: 1:03:30 Thach began playing NES Tetris in 2020 using "hypertapping", a technique where the player rapidly vibrates their arm to press the buttons on the controller.
[15][16] In terms of attitude while playing, Thach often makes jokes and uses comedic body language, which he has admitted helps soothe his nerves when getting through difficult levels of the game.
[11] He continued the tradition after winning the 2024 CTWC, where an inflatable pool was brought out to collect the cheese as he was doused in it by his mother and the hosts of the tournament.
It should be noted the table is incomplete, as results on the CTM website prior to February 2022 only list the names of the winner and the runner-up.
