Whoever decided that techno Flight of the Bumblebees needs to play when it's down to the top ten needs to be a) given a raise and b) fired immediately

Wildtortilla posted:Does level mean anything in this game? My first two hours with the game were fun, but I continue to be targeted from the word go. In more than 75% of my games this weekend things are fine then suddenly I have 8+ lines of garbage incoming. It's just a measure of how many times someone's played for twelve hours straight at this point. People think that if you're doing really well then the "random" targeting is weighted more heavily to aim people at you but I don't think anyone's conclusively proven it one way or another.

SeANMcBAY posted:Is there any reason to ever target badges? My typical strategy is to keep it on KOs and switch to attacker when I’m being targeted by more than 2 players at once. If you ever find yourself with the badge lead you can completely smother the entire competition by targeting the players with the next-most badges and taking out potential threats to your position. I've won a bunch of games this way.

YggiDee posted:My problem with the Classic Tetris theme is that at higher speeds I see the block colours before I notice the shapes so I'm just bad with the monochrome theme. Me too, if I don't see the colours I slap down All The Wrong Blocks. Being able to peep the colours with your peripheral vision is just too useful to use the GB skin.

YggiDee posted:It might be related to your placement? I know if you've been doing well in previous games you show up as a 'sparkly' opponent to other players. What I don't know is if other players are deliberately targeting sparklies or if they're more likely to be chosen by the 'random' option. If your average place over the last ten games is tenth place or above, that's when you get the sparkly intro. I think the game does prioritize you when other players are doing random targeting, but maybe that's bullshit too.

Invictus mode is weirdly relaxing in that I have no expectations of ever winning it so who cares how I do

Save your combo attacks for endgame though, if you target KOs in the beginning or midgame it's likely that all these lines will get sent to different players, and it probably won't do much. But they're great once you hit top 10. And you can get even longer combos with three- or four-wide setups, but those take more forward planning to keep the combo up.

You gotta use Spooky Castle this month though, it's the law or something

raditts posted:Is there a reason he occasionally sat on a block rotating it in place for a couple seconds? Is that like a way of memorizing your next pipeline in order to drop them at absurdly fast speeds? Your garbage meter can top out, and if you get sent more garbage while it's full, it goes to waste. So stalling between line clears gives more time for the garbage to actually pile on the other players before you add more. PS: I just got my 999 gold points so if any of you qualified you'll probably be getting emails from Nintendo soon! Good luck!

The cool thing about t-spin triple setups is that they're almost exactly the same as double t-spin double setups, just with one extra block in the middle of the well, so once you learn one of them you get the other for free

# ¿ Jan 16, 2020 20:51 |

Honestly, almost all the t-spin triples I've ever done in any Tetris game ever are from doing DT cannon openers, so don't worry tooooo much about them. Being able to work t-spin doubles in on the fly is way more important
