✦ A COMPREHENSIVE TETRIS GUIDE FOR ADVANCED INTERMEDIATES & ASPIRING EXPERTS
You’ve built a strong foundation. Now it’s time to achieve absolute mastery.
This 480-page guide by Tetris researcher Galactoid (3,000+ hours of mastery) brings you into the realm of full-fledged mid-game prowess.
Perfect for players who’ve outgrown intermediate strategies and want to master all-spin setups, advanced Tetris theory, and key concepts like parity, field harmony, consistency, and efficiency optimization.
✦ WHAT YOU’LL MASTER:
✅ All-spin mastery — uncover every major practical and meta all-spin setups, hybrid spliced all-spins, 4-wide all-spin methods, and how to sustain back-to-backs with all-spins
✅ Overcoming physical & mental limits — ergonomic and working memory shortcuts to hasten thinking and finger input speed.
✅ Expanded field harmony, parity, & efficiency — maintain smooth and clean stacking, minimize dead-ends, and maximize attack-per-piece efficiency.
✅ Parity mastery — create T-spins out of parity imbalances, manage jagged dead-end patterns, and maximize stacking and downstacking continuations.
✅ Advanced PC and opener integration — master the first advanced PC patterns and T-spin to 4-line PC openers
✦ WHY THIS IS MORE AMBITIOUS THAN OTHER GUIDES:
🔹 Other books: Single-technique dumps that focus on the what.
🔸 This guide: Shows you the why, when, and how of Tetris methods.
You won’t just learn setups; you’ll understand when they succeed, when they fail, and how to adapt them in any mid-game field.
✦ WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT:
- Coherent curriculum and conceptual integration — not mere superficial tricks that involve no understanding.
- Experience-backed methods — techniques have been tested for practicality and competitive use.
- Deep conceptual layering — parity, field harmony, T-spins, downstacking, and all-spins aren’t isolated chapters but interacting systems.
- Rich diagrams and annotated examples explaining everything in depth.
- No AI text or image generation was used in this book.
✦ BONUSES INCLUDED:
Free companion resources: website content and gameplay demonstrations.
This is Book 4 in the How to Tetris series — intended to conclude the core tetralogy. Still, future expansions (Book 5, philosophy supplements) are already sketched out.

10. How My Tetris Guidebooks Differ from Other Existing Guides
| Domain | My Guidebooks | Other Guides |
| 1 | Experience-backed by a single expert with 3000+ hours | Most written by amateurs and not experience-backed |
| 2 | Principles-focused | Most guides have no principles at all and just collate methods |
| 3 | Practical | Contains a mix of semi-practical and completely impractical methods |
| 4 | High quality and proctored; fact-checked thoroughly with reason and computer software | Many are not fact-checked and have incorrect mistakes or low-quality examples |
| 5 | Thoroughly streamlined | Mostly cluttered and messy |
| 6 | Curriculum-based to foster easy and real topical improvement | Mere documentation of methods, scattered without thematic unity or coherence |
| 7 | Comprehensive and covers all major areas of Tetris | Scattered guides on various topics |
| 8 | 1700 pages of relevant and important content | Most guides show less relevant information and are sparse on detail |
| 9 | Extreme details: 15,000 total Tetris fields | Many guides struggle to meet a fraction of this output |
| 10 | Created with great love, commitment, perseverance, devotion, and passion | Maybe |
| 11 | Ongoing series unified by a single person and vision | Many Wiki guides are written by 50 to 100 different people with inconsistent vision and standards |
| 12 | Backed by YouTube videos and two ongoing websites | Many guides do not have videos |
