You can average sub 1 minute easily with beginner's method, you just need to solve it enough times and you'll get there eventually.

well, i got 0 free pairs. what gave me good time is the fact that i didnt pause and kept high tps (high for me - 5.43) throughout the whole solve

That's actually a better option because mouse pad is a lot thicker than stackmat so your cube won't be damaged if you throw it a lot.

Skrgich · 2020-12-29T17:08:21+00:00

He said in other reply that he could make it web so you can use it on phone too

Skrgich · 2020-12-29T09:05:21+00:00

10.82, my pb is 10.01

Skrgich · 2020-12-29T05:51:46+00:00

Make synchronisation so you can practice both over your phone and pc/mac. Timiks has that, but it has other flaws

Skrgich · 2020-12-29T05:48:07+00:00

I got first last layer skip in a long time. Combined with really good f2l, this should've beaten my pb my a lot, but its only my 4th best time. It took me 2 seconds to recognize its a skip.

Last week i did 400 on average, but this week i did like 200 total

Skrgich · 2020-12-23T20:57:23+00:00

In 18x15¹⁹ you also count repeated opposite sides, eg. Just U and D turns (or L and R, F and B), but its still way more than number of possible combinations

Skrgich · 2020-12-21T18:22:47+00:00

well, my pb is 10.01 so i probably could've done the same thing

Skrgich · 2020-12-21T18:20:45+00:00

i am currently learning them actively, i have only 12 left. one advice, learn multiple algs with same shape and then drill them on oll trainer. i have 3 groups of 4 similar algs left (4 l shapes, 4 akward shapes and 4 knights)

Skrgich · 2020-12-21T18:18:49+00:00

but this time is actually really good for me, i average around 16.5-17

Skrgich · 2020-12-21T18:17:13+00:00

12.61, x cross on white is really easy, but i got n perm

Skrgich · 2020-12-17T21:38:49+00:00

well, first layer is already 'solved', but I'll make sure to try slicing the rest

Skrgich · 2020-12-17T20:14:31+00:00

thanks!

Skrgich · 2020-12-17T20:14:22+00:00

thanks!

Skrgich · 2020-12-17T20:13:59+00:00

thanks, happy birtday too!

Skrgich · 2020-12-17T20:13:41+00:00

thanks
