Virages

La façon la plus efficace de construire est d'opter pour une structure horizontale, et non verticale. Une fois les bordures atteintes il vous faudra passer à l'étage supérieur en construisant une articulation appelée virage (ou transition).

Virage Vertical

C'est la manière la plus directe d'effectuer la transition à l'étage. Il suffit d'elever la construction et d'y rajouter les raccords adéquats.

GTR

Le GTR (Great Tanaka Rensa) est la manière la plus célèbre de construire un virage. C'est une structure plate et facile à mettre en oeuvre avec une grande combinaison de couleur. Le GTR comprend aussi plusieurs variations.

Forme normale

Forme basique	Echelle 2-2	Sandwich	Forme en L	Flat Stacking 1	Flat Stacking 2

New GTR

Le New GTR (ou Long GTR) est similaire au GTR, sauf qu'il possède deux points de déclenchement (starters).

Forme basique	Variation	Forme en L	Flat Stacking	Réversible

Raised GTR

Une variation surélevée du GTR, utile pour gérer certains distributions. Elle implique d'utiliser une base irrégulière. Ce schéma peut être utile pour mettre l'adversaire sous pression car ils peut facilement se convertir en Hellfire.

Forme basique 1	Forme basique 2	Hellfire 1	Hellfire 2

Misuken GTR

Une variante du GTR, utilisée par le célèbre joueur Misuken, qui possède deux points de déclenchement (starters).

Forme basique	Sandwich 1-2-1	Echelle 3-1

Kanto Stacking

Kanto Stacking (関東積み) peut fonctionner comme transition, Hellfire ou même une chute !

Forme basique	Sandwich	Echelle	Hellfire	Chute

Sullen GTR

Sullen GTR (フキゲンGTR, fukigen GTR) is commonly used with Flat Stacking. Don't confuse this with New GTR.

Basic Form	Flat Stacking	Sandwich	L-Shape	Tanaka Special

GTGTR

Something Kuroro made up. GTR except complicated.

ETR

Also another thing Kuroro made up. Basically, it's when you royally screw up your GTR from harassing a lot on top of it. Don't do this form ever.

LLR

LLR is named after the Puyo shapes within the base. Referencing the Basic Form example below, it goes: L (red), L (blue), R (for reversible, the green). You'll need to know how to tail to make this form useful.

Basic Form	Variation 1	Variation 2	Hellfire	Reversible

Pechura

Pechura (ペルシャ式) is similar in concept to LLR.

Basic Form	Variants

Raised L-Shaped Base

Preemptively adding in a Puyo at the bottom makes it easier to chain on top later on.

L-Shaped Zabuton

Gets its name (座布団L字) because it looks like a Japanese sitting-cushion.

Basic Form	Diving Tail	L-Shape	GTR Instead	Same-Color Trans.	Reversible

Slug Folding

Slug Folding (なめくじ折り返し) contains elements of L-Shape. By constructing it as shown below, you'll have two trigger points. If you're rushing to complete your chain, there'll be less pressure and need for you to get a specific color since you have two options.

Basic Form	Complete	Extended

Sodomy Stacking

Sodomy Stacking (男色積み) gets its name from... use your imagination! This, and its Raised form, are popular ways to do a transition.

Sanagawa Transition

Using elements of Dam Stacking, the Sanagawa Transition (真川折り返し) can double as both a Power Chain (blues) or a normal chain.

Basic Form 1	Basic Form 2	Power Chain	Complete

Beetle

Not exactly a transition, but Beetle (甲虫連鎖) refers to making a huge Tail on top of the transition to pad it. This is typically done using Saitou Special. See also: Multiple Stacking.

Alpine Flower

Alpine Flower (お花畑連鎖) can double as both a mega Hellfire and a Transition.

Basic Form	Hellfire	Transition

Multiple Stacking

Not exactly a transition, but Multiple Stacking (多重折り) refers to padding your transition to use up more wall space and make your chain a little longer. Useful if your opponent is rushing you and you need to construct a Counter. Also useful if you want to counter a harassment; all you have to do is leave out a few Puyo from the stack so the rest of your chain doesn't pop.
