You solve the last cube as if it was a normal 3BLD.
Sorry but I don't do BLD (yet) so I still don't understand the difference

Why does the last cube differ?
Cuz all cubes except the last one are memorized using long-term memory. The last one is memorized using short-term memory (i.e. like in simple 3x3 bld) and is solved first. All other cubes are memorized and executed corners first.
tapping/visual for corners
Ha. Which part? The tapping, the visual, or both?
They're both pretty horrendous, and I have no idea why they are so popular. I'm sure there are people who do better like that, but that is a much, much lower percentage than the number of people who use it. I cannot think of a single person who has sub-15 memo and uses visual or tapping primarily for either corners or edges. Visual is a good way to memo twisted/flipped pieces, but I think that for most people it's usefulness stops there.
This is how I think visual came about:
>Let's do a blindsolve!
>But how do we memo?!?
>Idk... maybe we should just stare at it.
>Ok, seems good enough.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong and explain to me a single advantage that visual has over letters. So far I have seen no evidence that there is more than a small minority of people who remember random visual cues better than well-constructed mental images and sounds.

But I want to be good at Multi BLD and for Multi BLD most people solve edges 1st.
