The delay technique? Yeah that's nice. I'm also a big fan of the wrong color technique.
The thread "No one likes sailing" in Game Design (on the PP forums) has some theory on combo building strategies, I talk about how to build so as to be able to use the delay technique.
Or, if your not into reading, I can summarize: drop whole pieces horizontally, instead of vertically, or breaking them up into individual balls.
In order to build a delay -- Drop whole pieces horizontally instead of:
a) dropping them vertically
b) breaking them up into individual balls (by having half inside a prior step of the combo).
By 'drop' I mean place the piece such that after parts of the combo start firing, the whole piece falls, horizontally. That's how to build delays relatively easily. It is, however, very annoying to deal with. Exercise with caution.
Hm. I learned something from this. Thanks! (GM sails, hoping to improve, on Mala)

Hmm, this was a little ambiguous.
