Facts from the source article.
Frenzy mode
Clearing lines fills a frenzy meter, which activates frenzy mode. In this mode, frenzy blocks are added to the bottom half of the screen, similar to garbage in multiplayer Tetris. The player aims to stay in frenzy mode by making combos or clearing lines rapidly. If a tetrimino does not clear a line, the frenzy meter drops; roughly five misplaced blocks end the mode. When frenzy ends, the frenzy blocks remain on the screen and become regular blocks with random colors.
