  • This is the first video in a series. This video teaches about the basics of playing Puyo Puyo: making chains. The basics is NOT placing Puyos on the field randomly or using Fever mode. Learn how to chain!
    I hope it'll help. I've tried simplifying the concept as much as possible. After watching this video, try building an 8 chain or higher! That'll be your homework :P
    Visit www.puyonexus.net for more info!
    The voiceover was done by Keiji ( / omfgmouse , thanks :P Now I don't need to do the voiceover myselft XD
    *note: In the video there's 2 replays instead of 3. I couldn't fit a 3rd in it.

      the concept is easy to understand, it's the execution that needs to be work on. personally i think some people have an easier time grasping that part then others. Tetris is so simple though that anyone can do it, though the execution of building flat and fast needs to happen.

    I've played Puyo as a child since Dr. Robonicks MBM came out, then moved on to the originals. While I played knowing the concept of a 'trigger', I hadn't actually grasped the concept of creating 'new triggers' like you show here. I always had the one trigger I based everything around, limiting my combo to around an 8 chain. Thank you so much for this.

  • @danteishimura9189
    @danteishimura9189 Před 4 lety +2

    Hi there, Herman. There is a game called Judgment by SEGA (the guys who made the Yakuza Saga and Judgment plays just like it), and in the game is the mini game Puyo Puyo. The most advised tactic is the 3 column tower which you feature in your video from the 1 minute 15 mark. I 100% agree that this adds an even bigger luck factor to the requirement which is to win 25 in a row which you need to then have a character called Rulue appear. Before finding these beginner videos I had been using the 3 tower technique for over 32 hours and only managed to reach round 26 once in that time and still never won.
    I'm now having to relearn the whole thing all over again without being tempted to quit out and just stick to the 3 tower method. But I know if I can get a consistent method of hitting a 4-6 chain on a regular basis then I can smash the requirement and do so quicker and easier. But the other problem is the AI just doesn't give you time to even practice before it fills your screen with garbage Puyo's.,

  • @ziggybaba
    @ziggybaba Před 15 lety +2

    Yeah, I play in normal mode. You see, I wasn't all that good at making large chains becuase i often explode them to soon do to a mistake or getting colors I don't know what to do with. All clearing was the only option i had if I wanted to win without depending on fever. Besides, building on the instant patterns makes up for that lack of speed at the start of the round. None the less, I must thank you for making this video, I understand how large chains are keep in play now.

    Now I can't help but wonder if using all clears to start up an instant chain pattern is wrong. Because I mostly start a 3 or 4 chain into all clear and try to set the new pattern up so that also all clears and repeat. I won many matches using that style of play rather than going for big chains, it's just easier for me.

    I don't think it's possible to all clear all the time. And even if you're going for an all clearn, I wonder how fast you can do it. (the faster the better of course) Remember, we play with 4 colors online. With 3 colors though, it's really easy to all clear.
