IMHO, I think a more compact paragraph would be more readable, more visually appealing, and make the poll more likely to be featured at some point. Personally, I would drop the sentence about color variations, as it is not that interesting or relevant. It seems like just a random fact and that you are trying to make a square peg fit in a round hole. A better sentence to include would be about the Apple + Tetris movie or about the game's objective. Also, I like the title, even with the all-capped TETRIS. I think the question could be better asked and without all the capitalized words too.
FYC,
Title: Which TETRIS Block Do You Hate the Most?
The Apple TV Plus movie, Tetris (2023) has become a worldwide hit within a month of its debut, not unike the video game Tetris (1984) did when it was bundled with Nintendo's Game Boy. The movie tells Tetris' origin story and how it forever changed the gaming industry and a country at the same time. The game itself features blocks called Tetrominos, or alternately tetrads. Tetrad blocks are central to playing every known Tetris game. All tetrominoes have an area of 4 squares and come in 7 shapes, all of which can be rotated and then dropped. The game's goal is to move tetrads to complete lines without gaps, thus making them disappear and to delay uncleared lines from reaching the top of the playing field, as long as possible to maximize the points accrued.

Just a thought, you could make this a five-option Face-off instead. As I see it, the SmashBoy, TeeWee and Heros are unique blocks.
The two Ricky and two Z shapes are mirror images and could be two combined options instead of four options. It likely would change the vote dynamic by not splitting the vote between similar shapes that are mirror reflections of each other too. I might be wrong, but I don't see how one could be more difficult than other within the pairs.

No one can possibly hate the lovely straight stick tetris. It is a life saver from time to time.
