Fair, but it's still an impressive feat in its own right.

Crash dodging comes with its own challenges, explained more here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3f4T0WaDVM

There are some player actions that can avoid or reduce the risk of crash, including:

  - Pushing down <7 points
  - Pushing down 7+ points (note: very difficult at lvl 29+ speeds)
  - Turning off the next box while a line is being cleared
  - Avoiding specific line clear types on specific levels
However, on some levels, these actions will crash the game instead.
