Well, my sleep schedule has been kinda weird recently, that could be why. anyway, thanks for the advice, hopefully i wont die at comp.

This recently happened to my 3x3 times (11-12 avg to 14-16 avg) I haven't noticed much change to my solves, but my 3x3 times just shot up suddenly. I have a comp in 2 days and I was hoping to make final round, and i wont be able to with a 14-16 avg. However, all my other events have been...

uhhh, i only find most people using t and j perm... never r or f or g, sometimes a for beginner.

Trust me, you need to lube your cube. It gets really dry over time and over time and it feels horrible.

Honestly, don't be too stuck on being the best and winning competitions/getting podium. Your goal should be "I want to be sub 15" or something like that instead of "I want to win competitions and podium." anyway onto the advice. At beginning levels, improving TPS isnt all that important. What...

IMO, wide d moves in f2l are bad. I just do rotations/regrips instead. Plus, d moves make it harder to lookahead.

I think the GES nuts get weaker as you go up the rainbow, so purple would be the loosest/weakest.

From what I can tell, you have an issue controlling the cube, not that it is too loose. Does it feel too wobbly and flexy when turning? Or is it just too quick? I haven't really experienced this. (Don't have a WR M but I have a gts3m) I use the highest compression setting and have slightly...

This doesn't see to add up. The splits you gave indicate that you average 11-12 seconds In the past, I have highly overestimated my LL splits, so probably drill algs or practice quick recognition. Also, I agree with NitroCuber. Try to solve cross and 1 pair blindfolded. Take as much time as...

How good are my splits? From what I can tell, compared to other people I know, my ll times are way longer than theirs. I average sub 12 and my splits look something like this Cross + F2L : 5-7 OLL : 1-3 sec PLL : 1.5-3.5 sec Is it normal that my LL times take up around half my solve time...

At the beginning of the yer, my goal was to be sub 12 by the end of the year. I avged around 17-18 at that point. I am now sub 12 and have a sub 8 single! Right now I'm hoping to become sub 11 or sub 10 by the end of the year!

U2 F2 U' F2 U B2 D' B2 L2 F2 B' L2 U2 R2 D' L' D' F' 10.698 single Coulda been like a high 6 or low 7 if i got it nowadays but it was back when i avged like 16 or smth so yea easy double x cross on white

Honestly what I did was just take as much inspection time as you can and do it blind. At first though, I just tracked the 1st pair pieces and quickly recog, not as good as planning first pair and being able to do it bld, but far better than not even trying. Just try to do blind cross and 1 f2l...

Hey, uh so, I know this is a dead thread right now, but I average sub 12 now! Thanks for all the help guys! :)

i have problems with this too. its probably because you only know 2 look pll and your cross is inconsistent and relies on luck because your cross is slow.

i think he might be talking abt like R U R' U' U R U' R' R' U' R U L' U' L U U' L' U L L U L' U' U L U' L' etc.

why do you prefer the gts3m over the 354? the ridges make it feel bigger. or do you just prefer the feel of the gts3m? also gts3m > gan 354

Thanks for the advice everyone! My cross - f2l transition is far better and my avg is down to 23! i should seriously work on my cross times...

Thanks! Im going to start out with 4 moves.i didnt know this kinda stuff existed lol
