I'm not relatively 'new' to cubing, but I just need help on doing F2L and fixing my odd fingertricks.
First issue:
I'm so confused with F2L, I really just need a "for dummies" explanation of F2L, because I don't want to learn 25+ algorithms, but I just need a few to do the entire F2L, like 4 or 5. I've been using a self-modified version of the Beginner's Method, using these steps:
1. Trial and error solve white side (seek for corners)
2. Solve second layer using U R U' R' U' F' U F / U' L' U L U F U' F' to place edges
3. Solve yellow cross using F R U R' U' F' (repeated)
4. Place yellow corners by R U R' U R U2 / L' U' L U' L' U2 (repeated)
5. Modified PLL having only three algorithms: R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2 / M2 U M2 U M U2 M2 U2 M / x R2 D2 R U R' D2 R U' [<cube not solved> R' R2 D2 R U R' D2
Second issue:
Some of my finger tricks are weird.
U': Thumb pushes on red spot.
F: Index finger pushes on red spot.
F': Thumb pushes up on bottom side of corner highlighted in green.
I'm just looking for some help with these things, thanks!
