Tetris 99 Tutorial

Here is an impromptu tutorial of how to play the game.

-The left joycon is used for controlling to location and dropping the tetromino

-The right joycon controls the orientation

-One of the joycons is used to chose an individual target(Not very useful)

-The gray bars on the right(junk) are the blocks other players have sent to you, clear lines to remove them before they get added to your screen

-The junk have a timer. They start turning darker colors, and then blink up until they get added to you screen. The timer gets lower and lower as the game progresses

-Clearing lines gets rid of an equal amount junk as well as pausing the timer controlling the junk

-When you clear multiple lines, you will see a small number appear. That is the amount of lines you sent to a player

-If you are the player that causes a player to die, you get the kill

-Every kill you get grants you half a badge

-Every badge you get clears and sends 25 % more lines, and slows down the rate that the tetrominoes fall(HUGE FOR LATE GAME)

-The other is used to target a category of players, this includes

-Badges : Player with the most badges

-KO : Targets a player who is close to dying

-Attacker : Sends junk back at the people attacking you

-Random : Targets random, don’t recommend this category

-The more people attacking you, the more lines you send to all of them.     This makes defending attacks very rewarding.

-When you kill somebody, you gain their badges

-LEARN HOW TO t-SPIN

-If you want to get in the same game as a friend fairly reliably, press the button to join a game at the same time. I found it works fairly well
