I saw someone in the chat say, " there are no misdrops, just happy little t spin setups"

This feels like a life guide rather than just tetris tips

"if you lose, you can start over, no one is going to judge you." Man I wish Apex players had that mentality.

I'm more impressed with how he's playing and talking at the same time lol.

Watching stuff like this makes me realize I've only been warming up for the last 30 years.

You should make a series were people can send you recordings of there games and you can pause them slow them down ect. And give tips on what they did wrong or could have done better

Forgetting about it being online with others is a seriously crucial tip.

The missed perfect clear at 4:00 killed me

my jaw literally dropped and never came back up this is crazy next level holy crap im trash.

I find that when I start out playing I’m usually pretty laid back and chill and think a bit straighter and tend to make less misdrops but as I play and lose and get more frustrated I kind of change my mentality and just play, albeit angrily lol. But playing like that usually results in me making it into top ten most times

Ah... So this is the Wyatt that NL spoke of

This actually helped a ton, thank you! It’s amazing how you have such good/concentrated gameplay and can also be talking about it/other things at the same time.

Just go on Tetris friends or something Me: *flashbacks*

Thanks for the advice! I was grinding some Jstris 40L Sprint, and I got my first sub 1 minute time at 57.5 seconds. :) It was like an epiphany when you said, "when you have a flat board you don't have to really think about where you put your pieces."

Some tips from my own experience as a Tetris player my whole life who gets my butt handed to me in online: 1. Turn off the music or lower the volume--it can add to the intensity and distract you 2. Focus on building fast but precise start out with repetition and as you get better you will learn more tricks 3. Drop fast when you need to drop fast but build high when you have time at the beginning 4. Even when its rising to the top doesn't mean the game is over, you can still hold on and recover 5. Sit up and focus on the game completely cutting out distractions aside maybe some light music (not the tetris music) 6. Have fun

4:00 the fact that he didn't get the all clear triggers me more than you can imagine

Thanks. Most videos that get recommended on KZfaq show peoples' best games and make it easy to believe there's some magic to clearing fast and avoiding mistakes. This helps level my expectations, and will greatly reduce the anguish I feel next time a piece locks where I didn't intend it to

Who knew Tetris would still teach us life lessons in 2019?

1:31 a j-spin would definitely useful there to fix the misdrop and it's totally worth to learn too! and that 4:01, a missed perfect clear :')

When I try to go this fast, it's a complete mess

Oh my god, you don't know how much this helped me. Seeing how you play helped me a ton with topping off players like, a lot! I realised that if I don't have at least a tetris I should save my line block, other than that, this video saved me!

hey! thank you! this was super helpful, I just started playing tetris effect on pc and I needed to learn a bit, thank you

A lot of these ideas are so simple but just not something a low level player like me has ever thought of. Thanks for doing these videos. It's a huge help to someone just trying to keep their head above water XD

MAN! got my nintendo switch 4 days ago and thanks to TAFO i got my first victory yesterday!! THANKS MANN this video is awesome, simple strategy and i managed to win, i was getting to the final 10 all the time and always lost at the end, so happy now! really good advice in this video

something so satisfying about watching that one lone line collapsing 5 rows 😌

Loved the drunk Tetris from last night!

The fact you can talk whilst playing that well is just amazing-

Dude you are amazing I leaned a few things. Lol I remember the original games I subscribed

I can watch you play all day lol.... A beautiful mind

Incredible!

Any chance you could do a video on ways to be less dependent on line pieces? I feel that's one of the main problems us beginners have.

I've learned alot just by watching some of this. I'm not nearly as fast as you are but close to it. Making mistakes is what keeps me on edge. If I can just keep a calm mindset like you and keep it rolling, I'd be good. I normally play on PS5 the Tetris Effect. Some t spin techniques don't work like it does on the game you're on but that's ok.

R.I.P Tetris Friends 31st May 2019

Whis would be proud , you have mastered Ultra Instinct !

he's going intense speeds and talking at the same time and then theres me who sits there quietly focusing while placing pieces every 10 seconds

Dang tefo your on fire with the subs

Thank you for your videos. I feel like I can actually get better now. Is there a specific mode to practice a 40 Line sprint on Tetris 99. If not, is there a specific app to download on my iPhone to practice? Thank you in advance.

Analyzing my losses in this game is like "ah, it looks like 12 people decided to send me garbage at once. I'll simply avoid that next time"

I really need to get into these videos more if want to get below 1:15 in sprint

It's insane you can explain while you play like that.

Purposely making his stack look like my everyday stack . KAYYOOHHH KAYYOHHHH KAYYOHH

Great informative video!!!

What is the game you mention at 3:07? I've tried looking for something to help me get quicker at building, but I only use something like a free classic tetris, so it's not really timed or anything

How can this man build and talk at the same time? Bro is a legend haha

After seeing how fast this guy is, I have no desire to play this game.

This guy is the Bob Toss of TETRIS.

Hey go to bed guy so I can get some wins during this event. You KOd me like 10 times already.

My brother told me about tetrisfriends and I like going there but I'm not used to the controls. Mainly because I don't play it as much. But I have Tetris 99 which is the only game I actually play online on the Switch. I also bought Tetris Effect which I really enjoy playing

i love you tafo

Tetris Science with Tafokints

Could you add links to recommended tetris apps in the description or a comment? Also, what would you say about EA's tetris app on android? It CAN automatically show the player placements but also has a less hand holdy (but still frustrating) mode where you can pull down, left, and right. If you have any exerience with it, would you recommend it to people trying to learn moves?

Good vid :)

Awesome friend

I can't imagine panicing and not building, when I panic I probably build too much. And yeah I haven't won a single match, but I can get to top 15 pretty consistently if try hard. Once the blocks start to fall at 100% I just can't keep up. But I just play for fun! This is the only competitive game I really don't get mad at, and it's the only battle royal game I like.

thank you so, so much. i've learned an insane amount from this, but Tetris Friends seems to have shut down. are there any other free recommendations you have for grinding these days?

3:59 you skip a perfect clear, and I wanted to cry

The only problem is that on mobile apps, you can only rotate one direction, unless you turn on this weird mode that is really stupid because then you really can’t move very well

Damn good job ♥️♥️♥️

Tetris friends and Tetris battle are gone now. Any recommendations for replacements?

Now i can beat Wumbo

4:00 TAFO. HOW DARE YOU MISS A PERFECT CLEAR *wumbo's respect for you shall fall!* jk gg. hope to play against you someday..

Wow you are insane!

How does garbage work? Like the meter and lines of trash that get sent to me. And how does sending it back work? And what do badges have to do with it?

it helps alot if you just turn the sound off.... try it

thanks for teaching me some things :)

Tafo Teaches Tetris: Ep 1

4:01 that was a motherfucking perfect clear as clear as the sun

I love how bust my ass to get all good line clear but you play causally and win by badges I don’t ever get enough

The sypher pk of Tetris 99

6:40 when you realized he meant to do that...

You’re a mad man. 👊🏽😆

Is this fortnite building tutorial

AT TIMESTAMP 4:59 ) I would have probably stacked the Square Pieces there. That is an interesting move!

2:54 *casually does t spin*

what controller are you using?

AT TIMESTAMP 5:58 ) That is still a good ranking!

I have a bad habit that I can’t fix, I usually use only one button to rotate the piece so it would take long on some situations. Should I just practice thinking about using both or something

What controller do you use?

The bob ross of tetris 99

(4:00) WHY, WHY, WHY DID YOU RUIN THE PERFECT CLEAR FOR A TSPIN this infuriates me

I have had a lot of t spin setups, but I don’t know the controls to spin the pieces the other way in this game. Can anyone tell me?

AT TIMESTAMP 0:58 ) Except for when you get a Z-shaped peice!

Rip perfect clear

Nice video :thumbsup:

I think it’d be a great idea for them to add a training mode against A.I where you can set the difficulty to hard normal or easy for practice

Dude, this game is frustratingly addicting. I either do great, or get wrecked fast.

Do you use a pro controller or joycons

Receiving junk is basically receiving free tetrises make sure to utilise that instead of trying to get rid of a line or two of junk!

I viewed this on beasts stream how did it be on my recommendations

I have a problem, so I have two really bad habits one being I only use the clockwise rotation and I also tap the multiple times to move a piece instead of holding. Do know a way to fix both of these or at least some training type to fix it.

How to reach enlightenment through Tetris

rip Tetris friends

I play with my pro controller. Should i switch to the joy cons because the d pad on the pro con is trash?

I've been wondering, how do you input a t spin triple? Anything I've tried hasn't worked.

the missed PC at 4:00 triggered me so much

not using a stacking method like 6 3 or wide?

THANK U

There’s always a way to be better unless you or Wumbo are in the game.
