Perfect Clear Guide originally written by Isara Rungvitayakul. Updated.
== What is a Perfect Clear? ==
A Perfect Clear (PC) means having no filled cells left after a line clear.
== How to make a Perfect Clear? ==
This guide tries to give a higher chance of performing a Perfect Clear. The best scenario is to attempt it at the beginning of a game, when your opponent has not finished building up their stack. If you succeed, this usually becomes a K.O.
Note that this guide does not guarantee a 100% chance of success in making a Perfect Clear. It also requires a lot of understanding and practice to make it work in a game. However, failure is not as bad because you can continue making a stack for T-Spin or Tetrises.
The process contain 2 steps.
*Create a stack that makes a perfect clear more possible
*Look for tetromino combinations that will make it succeed.
== Stack for a Perfect Clear ==
This is a stack that makes a Perfect Clear much more likely, since it is built with every tetromino from the first bag and has 12 holes, to fit 3 tetrominoes from the second bag.
{|
In the first bag, I, L, O and J-Block form a square. You can also split the square into an LOJ rectangle and an I-Block separate from the rectangle, which works the same.
{|
S, T and Z-Block form the following shape. Note that you should get T before Z to make this shape.
{|
It is possible to build the stack in other ways.
		
Mirrored setup:
{|
== Using the Next 3 Tetrominoes ==
Assume you have built your stack like this:
{|
The next thing to worry about is what the next 3 tetrominoes will be. Note that you can use the hold piece to hold a tetromino. As a Tetris player, you should know that the sequence is very important in many cases.
== Examples ==
=== LTI ===
A solution is shown here. This solution will work regardless of the order of the tetrominoes. This solution requires an L-Spin. I-Block can be dropped at any time.
{|
Rotate an L-Block counterclockwise and soft drop into the desired position:
{|
Then rotate clockwise once:
{|
Then drop an I-Block (or T-Block if it comes next):
{|
Resulted in a line clear making a Perfect Clear spot for the T-Block:
{|
=== SLZ ===
For this solution, S should come first. The order of Z and L does not matter. If L comes before Z, it requires a Z-Spin.
{|
Rotate an S-Block and soft drop, then rotate again, as shown:
{|
{|
Then drop L-Block into the desired position:
{|
The hardest part is to do a Z-Spin.
Rotate counterclockwise and soft drop to this position:
{|
Spin counterclockwise again to kick into this position. If the Z piece does not go in, you have it in the wrong orientation. Spin it twice (180) and try again.
{|
== All solutions ==
				
				
				
	
== Conclusion ==
There are more scenarios than this. And if you do a mirror version, you would change the tetrominoes as well. The success rate is 61.2%, but if you do it fast enough there is nothing to lose. After failure, you can continue as usual. Make sure you do this before your opponent sends garbage.
