Sprint (40L)

Last updated Apr 7, 2026

Sprint Mode

Race to clear 40 lines as fast as possible. Your time is your score.

Rules

  • Clear 40 lines to complete the sprint
  • Timer starts when the first piece appears
  • The game uses level 1 gravity (slow) so speed depends entirely on your input
  • Topping out ends the game without completion

Leaderboard

Sprint times are ranked from fastest to slowest. The leaderboard shows:

  • Time
  • PPS (Pieces Per Second)
  • Date

Strategy

  • Speed over efficiency: Singles and Doubles are fine if they keep your stack clean
  • Quads are fast: 10 Quads = 40 lines. Building a 4-wide well and stacking I-pieces is the fastest approach
  • Use Instant SDF: Set your Soft Drop Factor to Instant (41+) in Handling Settings
  • Low ARR: Set ARR to 0ms for instant piece movement
  • Downstack quickly: If your stack gets high, clear aggressively
