Use the original Tetrimino colours
Settings > Gameplay > Tetrimino Colour
  • Customized (Default)
  • Traditional


Very useful for those who relied on peripheral vision and color to recognize pieces. This setting might also reduce distraction on certain levels (i.e. : Flames, Celebration)

This setting also applies to some Multiplayer modes (Zone Battle + Score Attack).

See more in NEXT
Settings > Gameplay > Next queue
  • OFF
  • 1 (Default)
  • 2
  • 3
  • 4


This allows you to set how many pieces you want to see in the NEXT queue.
(Located at the top-right outside of the well.)

Turn it off along with HUD for immersion, or set up to 4 to help with planning your piecement places.

This setting also applies to some Multiplayer modes (Zone Battle + Score Attack).
I highly recommend to go all the way 4 when playing MP.

Above: Left player uses 3 NEXT, along with traditional colour. Right player uses 1 NEXT, and custom piece colour.
Use emotes in Multiplayer
For keyboard:
1 + arrow keys

For controller:
Right stick.


Use this to express your emotion.

Connected Mode : Help yourself revive faster.
If you ever Top Out during the battle, press the button for rotating the pieces to the beat.
Look at the shrinking circle under your matrix/well to time your presses. You can revive faster if your teammates do a Tetris line clear, or T-spins line clear.

You should hear a clap and your avatar blinks if you do it right.

A more explained and detailed guide on this mechanic can be found below. Check it out. (They also have pictures)

Worth a mention for Connected/ Connected Vs. Mode:

When the players are on the attack and the 3 gameboards from the players merge: Use purple blocks to cover gaps: Purple blocks are "Gravity Blocks" that causes all holes to plug up beneath it

I wondered how others were doing emotes. Thanks!
Maybe.
I am just curious. And yesterday I had been playing the new Tetris since the beginning. That's why I don't know well about everyone like the one from your guide.
