Non-overstacking Construction
Overstacking can be very dangerous against an agressive opponent. If a player is not able to get down to the garbage efficiently, he'll be overwhelmed by garbage.
In this situation, a player overstacks and takes longer to get down to the garbage.
With the same sequence of pieces, a player can opt to switch the position of the T and the J, resulting in a clean opening for the garbage.
Towering
When facing an ever changing system of garbage, often, a player has to make the field uneven in height to avoid overstacking.

Be wary when towering because it's not always productive. If a player is not careful, he may end up decreasing his options in piece placement.

Situations like this should be remedied as quickly as possible in a match.
Overhang
When plagued by an unfortuante sequence of next pieces, an overhang is another form of a scapegoat.
