Tetris: Infinite T Spin Triple

There is one method that results in higher Tetris scores than even ST Stacking. It is the TST or T Spin Triple Loop. It has a Hard Drop page that I have been studying.

https://harddrop.com/wiki/Infinite_TST

Here are a few images from that page which I will be using to help me achieve this in Tetris games.

The image above shows that there are multiple ways to build this looping pattern. The images under the text “right side” are the way I prefer to do it. Most online videos show the “left side” method.

This image is relevanr because it shows that it is possible(though very risky) to build 3 T Spin Triples in that specific way but continue the loop. This means that if someone is extremely lucky with the order of blocks received in guideline Tetris, they can do the most devastating combo beyond anything else possible in all of modern Tetris! I will be using this information in my own Tool Assisted Speedruns!

The following video is one of a complete 200 line Marathon using ST Stacking. My score was 1,553,676. This is an extremely high score because only T Spin Doubles and Tetris clears were used. This resulted in maintaining the Back to Back bonus.

I have not completed a marathon with using only T Spin Triples but when I do, I will update this post to compare scores! It is important to use the same game and number of lines to see the difference.

However, I have succeeded in using the infinite TST up to 150 lines in my own game, Chaste Tris.
