Dude….I hate I never got to see your videos when I played Tetris 99. But im happy I get to learn from you since Ive gotten into PuyoPuyoTetris2! 😇 This is the best guide HANDS DOWN. You did great, and Im excited to learn more from you!
Yeah I played classic Tetris growing up too. Modern Tetris is a fun spin on it though. But honestly you can consider both to be fairly different games.
Yeah so long as you have an overhang, you can spin pieces in all sorts of ways. If you watch my back-to-back T-spin setups video, you get a small idea of that. DT Cannon for instance.
Thanks infinitely for making this video! I could always do T-Spins if I'd watch an example or two right beforehand, but your great explanation has this drilled into my memory so I'll always know how to do them in the future without having to look up another video. Thumbs all the way up!
Yeah no problem! This is the absolute starter pack of how to spot T-spins though. If you wanna start thinking more about building T-spins on your own free will, definitely check out the follow up video
You can also practice in TEC single player modes. I'd recommend trying to do a bunch of T-spins in Playlist mode where the gravity is low and there's no game over. Then just aim for high scores with T-spins
greatly appreciated - i always thought a t spin was just jargon for finagling something into a gap, didnt know it required a T piece. big ups for helping me get my Dailies, haha
Thank you so much! If the game had ever explained this as nicely as you just did, I would’ve a lot more than the 2 I have by accident! Now I will be doing this on purpose!
@GoTron88 I have been practising in marathon mode :) The setup is harder to get and I have to abandon to get my stack managed... But I can get a few at the start reliably. I know why in 99 mode I sometimes get killed so quickly :)
Hey, excellent & succinct description of the thought process for building TSDs. The base of the t-spin, the '1-wide hole' (with sides of same height) is really key as TSD is almost always possible when you see that. I think this way of explaining it is far superior to others that I've seen.
Thanks! Yeah I had trouble finding a simple explanation for T spins for so long. So I said screw it, I'll figure it out myself and then make my own vid lol
Bro thank you so much. I’ve been playing Tetris for a couple of years and to my standards I thought I got pretty good but felt I hit a wall. Then I heard about T-Spins and could not figure it out. Turns out my “pretty good” is like a toddler playing when online. Thanks for the clear examples. Now I’m off to practice.
Thanks! Honestly good fundamentals will still get you pretty far in online vs. But there is a certain point where T-spins become necessary to advance farther.
No problem! T-spins start to become more prevalent around SR 6500. You can probably get away with not using them earlier, but better to stay learning them when you can.
Thanks! If you're looking to really up your zone attack power, you should try working on chaining combinations of T-spins and Tetrises together. My follow up T-spin vid might help you with that: ruclips.net/video/6S7w3LoCFq0/видео.html
I've played Tetris on and off since the original, and I always wished one of the ones I played would just actually TELL the player what a T-spin even is- I've been confused about them since they were even a thing since they feel so unintuitive to the rest of the gameplay of Tetris. Thanks for this explanation.
Yeah they've been around since the modern Tetris SRS system got introduced in Tetris DX on the Gameboy Color I think, which I actually did own back then. Even back then I didn't know T-spins were a thing. It wasn't until I watched other T99 players that I learned what they were haha.
Thanks for the explanation and all the examples! I picked up Tetris Effect through Steam recently and have been trying to kick the habit of relying solely on i-pieces/Tetris clears (I have trouble picturing things only written/verbally told to me ^_^'' )
Yeah me too I'm a visual learner so as good of resources sites like four.lol are, sometimes I just need to see things on repeat several times before it sinks in haha
Pretty much all modern Tetris games give T spins equal or sometimes more points than a Tetris. My earliest modern Tetris game was Tetris DX in the Gameboy Color.
Just started playing Tetris effect and I'm being destroyed in multiplayer. Everyone keeps doing the t-spins so I had to learn how to do it myself. Thanks!
He didnt zone. It made me sad. I cried 10/10 tutorial that didn't over complicate its self by showing to much info at once like setting up two TSDs at once even when you had the opportunity (pause on 3:17 )and just let the beginner focus on one at a time
The only thing I struggle with is how to maintain after making a tspin. Every time I make one, my setup for everything else looks bad or really sloppy. It's like I can't do one if I'm doing another. If that makes sense
Yeah it does. I try to explain the logic at 1:34 but I know it's not 100% clear. Basically rotate the T so the butt doesn't get in the way of the well, then rotate it again in the same direction. So it won't always be the x button, but if you used the x to rotate is clockwise, then you gotta use x again to rotate it in the same direction again once the T is in place
1:27 Are we not gonna talk about how people have been rotating it the opposite way? (Granted it needs a wall on both sides to kick it in when you do it that way, but the "backwards" TSD as I've been calling it is definitely a prominent feature the pros use... for some reason..)
How to properly fill overhangs by the way? I keep placing the wrong piece and causing the overhang to disappear before I set up the T-spin. I also tend to play leaving either the left or right side of the field clean for easier Tetrises with the I-blocks - how many blocks of padding to each side are best for setting up overhangs?
People generally prefer 6-3 build as in a padding of 3 rows on the right side, but that really just a suggestion. Maybe this video I made will help you? ruclips.net/video/6S7w3LoCFq0/видео.html
I JUST put up a brand new video if you're looking for more context. Buy honestly if you're starting from scratch just kind pick the flat spots that come up by chance and work with those first before building your own. ruclips.net/video/V8d09UEErWY/видео.html
But... in the tetris LSD tutorial they do a super weird T-Spin where the T piece just seems to teleport into place down to an immposible position, i just dont get that
According to the tetris wiki, most modern tetris games award 50% more points for a t-spin double than for a tetris, and make a t-spin single equal to a tetris.
Maybe this will help? ruclips.net/video/6S7w3LoCFq0/видео.html Especially at the 1:15 mark. If you slow it down and watch frame-by-frame you'll see quite a few overhang examples.
Oh it's a bit trickier in Classic Tetris games like Gameboy and NES. It's still possible but the window to do it is way smaller. Like at higher levels such as Lv 18+ you have to rotate it within 1-2 frames
Hi guys, I can't for the love of God get the Hold tetrimono button to work. I have tried all the buttons on my Xbox controller - playing on controller on Steam PC. Please advise. I'm playing all these more difficult levels on Normal journey and I haven't used a single hold yet. Am I allowed to be a little proud? Ty if you can help me with which button it is to use Hold tetrimono.
Thank you so much Mr. Pro Gotron 88. Does anyone here have a recommendation of video for beginners learning Zone Battle? I am on a loosing streak of 20+ losses in a row. Thank you!
I've been thinking about this comment but I'd say it's a bit tricky because there are so many play styles. Maybe start with 2-wide well until you're comfortable stacking and downstacking with counters? I have a video on wells so maybe start there
It's not about Zone specifically, but I think 2-widing in general is good to use in TEC. Just watch the first part of this video: ruclips.net/video/QrTK9SYnh6E/видео.html
To be fair T-spins have been around since original Tetris. They just didn't provide additional score. But neither did back to backs or combos. And to be also fair this was all vetted and approved by the original creator of Tetris. So you know..his game his rules lol.
@@thealterego3187 This is true! But also the first time I saw the SRS system was actually on Tetris DX for Gameboy Color, which was primarily a single player game haha
I played Tetris for more than 20 years, and played flat confidently building wells and getting multiple Tetris, avoiding T-spins. I have reached only as high as 4gh in Tetris 99. Once I perfect TSD, then I'll work on TST.

Hey thanks! That was the goal since I had trouble finding a good t spin video myself before
Realized I was doing this, at pure luck/random, without even knowing what I was doing. Thank you for this tutorial.
Haha pretty cool to be able to just stumble into a T spin though. It was definitely a learned thing for me by watching others.
Hey thanks. Yeah I've always known about this but never realized the game tracks it and actually rewards the skill for this trick. Pretty sick
The editing of this video gives me late 2000's RUclips vibes and I love it

@@GoTron88 I saw something even more trippy someone had like a huge stack of T spins and was able to move the block all the way to the bottom.

Thank you so much for the pro tip! I'm definitely going to be using this in Tetris 99. I'm so pumped now! :)
It takes a lot of practice before they become practical, but once they become more second nature you'll be flying!
People have showed and tried to explain this to me but this video might actually help me in zone battle on TEC. Thanks 😅!

You have given the best explanation and with many examples, I am very grateful.
Thanks!
so cool!!
he clearly explained how to do T-spin in flat 5 minutes
Thanks a lot! I feel like a lot of t spin vids on YT seem to drag on their explanations, so I tried to keep mine as concise as possible.
Thank you for this, even though it goes against every Tetris intuition I have!
Yeah it's very very different from Classic Tetris haha
THE BEST T-SPIN TUTORIAL.
Thanks!
Thanks for the tutorial!
I finally understand how to do T spins!
Happy to help!
Hey, excellent & succinct description of the thought process for building TSDs. The base of the t-spin, the '1-wide hole' (with sides of same height) is really key as TSD is almost always possible when you see that. I think this way of explaining it is far superior to others that I've seen.
Thanks! Yeah I had trouble finding a simple explanation for T spins for so long. So I said screw it, I'll figure it out myself and then make my own vid lol
Thanks for the link on Reddit! Now it's time for for practice. 😎
Absolutely! And the more you practice, the more intuitive the patterns become.

Appreciate it!
Thanks, i need this so i can get better at Tetris 99, i accidentally did a T-spin, and was wondering what it was lmao

I do have a few vids on back to back setups and donations too, so feel free to check those out!
I'm typically terrible at doing t-spins but I made two t-spin doubles and a t-spin single just by going off what basic shape I needed for it.
Glad to hear it! The first step really is to just recognize the shape on the board. Next step is to start trying to deliberately make those shapes.
Thank you for posting this!

Thank you SO much for your service ❤️
No prob!
Just one cuestion. What game is it at 2:58?
Puyo Puyo Tetris
Thanks bro, I struggled two months with what this thing was 😂😂😂
No problem!
The only thing I struggle with is how to maintain after making a tspin. Every time I make one, my setup for everything else looks bad or really sloppy. It's like I can't do one if I'm doing another. If that makes sense
Watch my T-spin part 2 and 3 videos, especially part 3 which focuses specifically on this.
the tspin and garbage marks at the end in tetris effect , did you postpro that or is there actually a tspin training mode in tetris effect?
I added those postpro
When you rotate the T does it matter the direction? I only/always use one direction rotating (X button on PS)
Yeah it does. I try to explain the logic at 1:34 but I know it's not 100% clear. Basically rotate the T so the butt doesn't get in the way of the well, then rotate it again in the same direction. So it won't always be the x button, but if you used the x to rotate is clockwise, then you gotta use x again to rotate it in the same direction again once the T is in place

3:10 whats this site called and is it free to play?
That's Puyo Puyo Tetris. Not free. But at 3:29, Tetr.io IS free!
I never realized how simple the t spin is. I’ve just been doing t spins by pure luck
Simple but useful!
Can you T-Spin on the NES version? That’s the version me and the guys play at work
TECHNICALLY yes, but it's much more difficult to execute in that you have to time it perfectly at the right frame, and there's no score benefit.
Thanks bro but I'll try it soon
No problem!
But... in the tetris LSD tutorial they do a super weird T-Spin where the T piece just seems to teleport into place down to an immposible position, i just dont get that

A lot do, yeah. In most of the versus games I play the garbage sent is the same though
@GoTron88 I think it's unbalanced anyway, considering a tetris takes more setup than a t-spin single or double
@@element1192 yeah I thought the same too, but I just came to accept T-spins, and ultimately they are a lot of fun to set up haha
