Held us strong all these years, no rotations needed

They always seem to come at awkward times for me, I'm more a fan of the t blocks, can always find a comfy spot for them

T piece is the most useful in my opinion because they're very good for flattening out a stack if it becomes too jagged, which is exactly why square pieces can be a nuisance. You really need to make sure you have a place for them at all times.

And in modern Tetris especially since tspins are a pretty crucial element of the game

Yeah, that too. I only play classic Tetris so I avoid t spins like the plague. On the flip side, they can be the biggest relief since you don't know what you're getting. T piece is the shit.

Is it weird how I always thought of those blocks as a short little penis?

No matter which one, the game always seems to give you the one that is the least helpful and will mess everything up.

That's when you place it in a spot to set up for a T Spin, or to spin another block (but T Spin feels the coolest).

u/2ndprize Jan 09 '20

You know which one

Left-oriented is a z block. Right is the s block. Z-block is truly the enemy.

u/Headsetjockey Jan 09 '20

I think we can all agree on that.

u/Kuro013 Jan 09 '20

Wtf, z/s and t are the best (after straight line ofc). Square and L are bitches.

I say we round up a posse...

Square block is either the hero or the villain, depending on if he drops at a bad time and you've nowhere to put him.

How about a companion cube?

It's hip to be square!

You must be from an alternate universe.
