Hamburger is a form of sustainable T-Spin Single stacking, similar to ST Stacking. This method of stacking was popularized by top Japanese player, Amemiyataiyou, for its effectiveness against Puyo, in Puyo Puyo Tetris. The name comes from the fact that the playfield starts to look like a hamburger after a few cycles.

Basic Setup

The basic idea of hamburger is to create this basic shape:

Initial build

Soft Drop T

Rotate T, for T-Spin Single

The obvious way to make a Hamburger is to use a Z piece.

After a few iterations, use an I piece to clear the excess.

Repeat

Tetris

Strategy

The method involves Back-to-Back T-Spin Singles and Tetrises to abuse the garbage delay against Puyo in Puyo Puyo Tetris.

Usages

• This technique can be used to make a Tetris. Just rotate the T piece once or twice, depending on the piece preview.
