Therefore, despite having the same utility problems as the S Block, and despite its troubling opinions on the importance of funding public libraries, the Z Block ranks slightly higher than its reversed sibling. The letter z is way cooler than the letter s, as evidenced by Dragon Ball Z, the coolest thing ever.

The Z Block has all of the same gameplay problems as the S Block, only facing the other direction, and this makes more of a difference than one might assume at first glance. It’s also a devout contrarian on Twitter, and thinks that poor video games are primarily the result of developer laziness, so it obviously belongs at the bottom of the list. While seasoned Tetris players can force the S Block into usefulness, the block itself provides no true flat surfaces, making it the most finicky tetromino to utilize properly.

Peer review is the backbone of all scientific research, after all. If you feel that any of these conclusions were arrived at in error, please share your thoughts in the comment section below. Through a system that is in no way arbitrary or riddled with personal bias, each of the seven tetrominoes present in Tetris Effect and its ilk have been graded, analyzed, re-graded, re-analyzed, and then graded one more time for good measure, resulting in the list you are about to read.

The best way to do that, of course, is by ranking each block based on its usefulness and personality, as determined by me, Known Tetris Expert Jordan Mallory™. After a lifetime of suffering at the hands of certain blocks, and waiting frantically for the saving grace of certain other blocks, I’ve decided that it’s time to finally put each Tetris piece (or tetromino) in its place.
