It will be interesting to see how it is adopted and if it ends up becoming the new standard for NES Tetris play. Now, alongside DAS – which was the standard way to play Tetris by using pressing the dpad once and holding to control side movement – and Hypertapping – which has players tap the dpad as many times as they can in succession – we now have Rolling. He then set a world record for the highest score on a Level 29 Start with 259,000 points. Cheez then started using this technique in tournaments like the WPL Classic Tetris Open 5 and achieved the first 1,300,000+ score and the Most Lvl 29+ Tetrises (4) in tournament history. It took a lot of practice, but he eventually was able to consistently get 20 buttons taps per second. However, it has the player position their thumb over the dpad direction they want to use, and then they roll their fingers on the bottom of the controller like a big button to achieve these high number of button taps.

He took that to heart and watched a YouTube tutorial on button mashing where a player was getting extra taps by pushing the controller into the finger over the controller from the other side. Cheez_Fish finally discovered a way to make it work on the NES after a viewer thought he was rolling his hands due to the slow framerate of his webcam. However, the buttons on arcade cabinets are much larger than an NES controller, making it hard for it to translate to Tetris on Nintendo’s first console, up until now. This technique, which is also called Flyheccing, was popularized by Hector “Fly” Rodriguez, who used Rolling on arcade cabinets to achieve higher speeds on Track and Field. Prior to this, DAS and Hypertapping were the two standards for Tetris pros, but Rolling allows for a high amount of button presses per second without the “superhuman finger speeds” needed for Hypertapping, modified controllers, or any gloves – which also makes it is perfectly legal for tournament play. YouTuber aGameScout detailed this new up-and-coming playstyle that is taking the Tetris community by storm. NES Tetris players are using a new technique called Rolling to set new world records by achieving button presses of over 20 times per second.
