What's your favorite Tetris piece? I assume T piece would be the most common answer to this question. I guess S, Z, L and J would come last because why should you prefer S over Z when they just look identically; and from the 3 pieces with a mirror axis (I, T, O), the T piece is the only one looking differently in all 4 orientation. If the T piece isn't the most popular piece (I piece is also a contender), then it's at least the most interesting one: It's the only piece that covers a different number of white and black tiles, if put on a checkered board ("parity") and you can make T-Spins (in guideline Tetris even T-Spin Triples). I don't know why I wrote this introduction but oh well this is another video about nothing but T pieces.
I had the idea for this video when I was watching a video of nick666101 where he build the doubled-sized T-Spin Triple Tower setup like at 3:58 but with bag randomizer. • Tetris Pattern - Big B...
When watching said video I thought why not use T pieces only to stack the setup and clear the board in the end with some giant T pieces. For latter I had to just add an additional line in the NullpoMino code where I made the game switch to "Big Mode" (doubled sized pieces, so pretty much 5 columns instead of 10). I also thought about making giant patterns for other pieces (e.g. using only L pieces to build a L Spin Triple into L Spin Double setup) but then gave up on the idea for the sake of more T Spin setups ... because T piece is best piece :)
I took the setups from here: harddrop.com/wiki/Category:T-S...
Most setups I used have in common that they utilize the T-Spin Triple kick which is a twist from flat side down orientation to vertical orientation where the T piece is kicked 2 rows down and 1 column to the side. This kick requires an overhang on the top. If the setups didn't include a T-Spin Triple, then they usually contain a STSD ("Super T-Spin Double") which just looks like the T-Spin Triple build but with one missing block in a corner.
Music is the last two songs from The Flashbulb's Arboreal album ("Skeletons" , "Tomorrow Untrodden"). Game is a slightly modded version of NullpoMino. As said before I added a line where a certain button press would make the game switch to Big Mode. I also made FixedSequenceRandomizer store the used sequence in the replay file.
NullpoMino allows you to define a sequence with FixedSequenceRandomizer or disable certain piece shapes in Practice Mode. I used pause and re-record to create this replay. Replay is sped up twice. I made the background from a Tetris Ultimate cover. I used Puyo Puyo Tetris skins and sounds which you can find under fileshare in the HardDrop Discord.
