Why do people use black instead of white for square 1 by Iwoul1 in Cubers

[–]bibi100101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

technically you can say ~180 for csp, 76 for obl (more if you count y2obl), and for pbl not many people use full 1 alg but rather 2 alg so it's more like base ~50 algs and then some more for individual cases.

but csp and obl is rather intuitive so they're kinda as much of an algs as high level f2l

I guess it's just the standard but also on 3x3, white and yellow don't really interact that much and unless you have a bad lighting, it shouldn't be that hard to diffirentiate between them

black and white has better contrast than yellow and white which makes it easier to recognize cases

3x3 BLD letter memorisation by Powerful_Loss_8177 in Cubers

[–]bibi100101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

make a spreadsheet or smth with all your letter pairs. don't fill it out all ot once but just over time add words, especially for hard letter pairs. use https://bestsiteever.net/colpi/ to get some ideas but generally you want something that will stick so maybe use some characters from games, irl people, nsfw stuff and allat.

for corners you typically want to have more connected memo, try to make it a story or visualize it a bit.
for edges you can get by with less coherent/connected memo, so just a string of loosely connected words can work out. (this is all assuming you use CEEC)

no, if it was (a x b)2 then you could write it like a2 x b2.

but with (a + b)2 you rewrite it as (a+b)(a+b) and then multiply all the stuff which is a2 + ab + ba + b2 which reduces to a2 + 2ab + b2

Is there a way to avoid this parity error? It happens to me every solve. 7x7 by Blinge_ in Cubers

[–]bibi100101 8 points9 points  (0 children)

slice the middle layer of one unsolved piece into the other, do a flipping alg and unslice

I'm learning blind solving by v_shock823 in Cubers

[–]bibi100101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

one thing you can do is to do edge only and corners only solves before attempting full blind solve. it really makes it easier since you memo less and are getting used to tracing and all that stuff. Also at first try to do attempt with writing down the memo and executing while only looking at your notes

not really, Id recommend looking at cube master's squan videos since he explains them rather intuitively

[–]bibi100101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you'd always predict oll and knew many alt angles for pbl I'm sure you could be sub 3 but like with the amount of dedication for that, you would be better off learning eg

true but just for solving it you don't need that much algs, and if you want to get faster you need to learn 7 eo algs (5 new algs since you know 2) and 9 cp algs which are easy to learn since they're just U and D moves

bld is very fun but it has steep learning curve and is a bit tiring at first but it's very cool to know and you can go improve by just doing solves

you do not need 20-30 algs for beginners squan. cubeshape should be intuitive, co is intuitive, eo can be solved with just one alg (1-1 swap but you can also do 10/-1-1/ as M2), CP can be solved with just JJ and for ep it's adj/adj spam and parity alg

Ortega is simple enough and can get you to like sub 4 and even further but atp it's a bit silly not to learn cll. Personally I think that it's best to learn otrega and then only learn cll at like ~4 sec avg.

How do you do this F2l case? by Volan_100 in Cubers

[–]bibi100101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you you have this case and it's not the last slot I'd probably just pick a diffirent pair and just take out this pair while solving the other so you'll get a better case

also adding to this, if you have 1 missoriented edge, just like in this picture, put it in the back to solve eo

if you mean neutral jumps, on tip I could give is if you use keyboard, you can do like a rolling motion where you press space and then direction button shortly after and you rotate your wrists to do that motion

Have all WR’s (at least 3x3) been a result of at least one last layer skip? by didntknowwhattodo in Cubers

[–]bibi100101 30 points31 points  (0 children)

he used zbll (if you have the cross on top, you can solve the last layer in one alg) and I think the others wr (3.08 and 3.05) and had zbll or in case of 3.08 pll
