I read the first half, skimmed trough the middle and read the ending. Awesome. It' so cool to see these games being figured out far beyond seemed possible to you at first.

I can't get past level 10 on tetris friends xD Don't think any of this applies to me, still very interesting to read though.

This was interesting, I gave it a try for a few hours and the best I manged to do was 5 T-spins for about 8500 points.

Using my way, I got about 10500, but I've been doing that for a few years, so I'm willing to concede to a superior methodology.


A few things that would've helped me learn faster that I found out through trial and error:

1. The opening is a giant mess. Just try to get your two spin slots set up and don't leave any holes.
2. If you screw up by having to lay down a purple that isn't double-line T-Spin, you can still keep going. Just put the next red as far right as possible and set it down like you normally would. It will still line up properly with your next T-Spin and you'll just have a few rows of garbage at the bottom to ignore.
3. You can leave holes in the left side at no expense. However, they have to be in the bottom row of your 3x3 blocks you're forming in the center-right "combo columns", or they'll block you. Or, described another way, one row above where your T-Spin slots are.


I'm aware most of this isn't relevant for high score attempts, but it lets you learn a lot faster.

OP, you should be paid for doing this incredible guide, because you're actually providing useful stuff to society.

Well this pretty much sums up what I was going to say. Really nice read and you can tell by the wall of text you did put a lot of time/effort into it. I wish to congratulate you on both, this thread and 10k!

This guide is amazing! I'm now at the top of my friends list despite having 43 tetriminos/sec as opposed to their 65 tetriminos/sec. ^^

This makes me feel like I took a year to complete a rubik's cube only to find out there are guides online and any child could've read one and done it in a day or less.

tl;dr

Just kidding, but this is seriously amazing.

I've always wanted to get better at Tetris DS to stand a chance against those damn Japanese players!

Dam, I've been trying this for days now. Opening + left side stacking are the hardest parts hands down - I've only managed to get around 18k points, lol.

I read most of the OP and it was great, but the title made me think it was some guide to some Ultralisk stacking abuse, so I was kinda disappointed. Oh well, I can always just dream of ultras stacking like mutas.
