Name: L
Aliases: El Guapo, Lenny.
Pros: Good for 'clean-up work' by how it slides easily into otherwise covered gaps. Fits really nice in conjunction with other L-shaped blocks. All you really need to score a triple. Can be rotated into four different positions.
Cons: Don't do a damn thing for stair-like terrain. Also, it brags of its accomplishments too much for what it is worth.
Interesting sidenote: Its likeness to a gun had the tetrad temporarily banned in certain areas of the world, such as Norway and Sweden. Of course, gameplay was severely limited with only six tetrads (yes, the reverse L tetrad was still in the game, despite its striking similiarities to the controversial L piece) and finally, in Sept. 1990, the L-shape was included (albeit grudgingly) once again.
Survey SAYS: OK.
