A Collection of Algorithms

A U-COLL+A OLL for a pure adjecent 2 flip:
R' U2 R F U' R' U' R U F' + F R U R' U' F' = R' U2 R F U' R' U' R U R U R' U' F' [U']

Thats how I figured it out, I just wasn't sure if it was widly known that it could be done cause I haven't seen anyone talk about doing it that way online.

You can check algdb.net next time. And dont count mirrors and iverses of the algs as a new algs. (In this case it's a mirror of Jb).

Was trying to find an alg that doesn't suck for this OLLCP-A case, when I stumbled on this weird alg:
R2 u' R2' u (R2 x') (U D) r U2' r' (U' D') x

The x rotation at the end sucks if you have to follow it up with EPLL, but the rest of the alg flows nicely. Maybe it's good for 1LLL?

Isn’t this better?
F R U’ R’ U R U R2’ F’ r U R U’ r’

F R U’ R’ U R U R2’ F’ r U R U’ r’

Probably! I wonder how I missed that.

I personally use this Algorithm but I think @CLL Smooth 's algorithm is better for you as you don't like right U2's and mine has 2 in it

Regripless 6-gen "Y perm": R U' R' S R' F R f' R U' B U2' B' R'

 

[Thom S.]

Regripless

6-gen

That's two terms you don't often hear together.
The Algorithm itself is pretty good

Pure opposite flip (UL and UR):
R u R U R' (u' U') R2 U2 R U' R' U' R

About as fast as M' U2 M U [R' F' R, S] for me, and a lot faster than the MU ones.

I unintentionally found algorithm for this ZBLL condition.
this condition looks like solved cube but 2 corners are flipped.
this is really simple you only need to do Antisune + sune algorithm to solve the cube

condition 1 :

algorithm : R U2 R' U' R U' R' L' U2 L U L' U L

see here :
https://alg.cubing.net/?setup=L-_U-...#2b;_sune R_U2_R-_U-_R_U-_R-_L-_U2_L_U_L-_U_L

condition 2 :

algorithm : L' U' L U' L' U2 L R U R' U R U2 R'

see here :

[mencarikebenaran]

I need a new algorithm for this case

I use f sexy f' F sexy F'
( Fw R U R' U' Fw' F R U R' U' F' )

help its terrible


I just use a lefty alg

do sune then U' and then sune again

Hi! Cool that you found it yourself but both algs are well known. see here: algdb.net

 

[Pyjam]

COLL U (front swap). Works well as a CMLL ou ZBLL too.

r' D' F r U r' F2 r U r' D r (U2)

Reverse is a COLL T.

(U2) r' D' r U' r' F2 r U' r' F' D r

Another day, another alg with S moves. 4-flip H perm (or the dot OLL with corners oriented):
S R' U' R U R U R U' R' S'

This isn't a new alg; I've found a random mention from like 2008 which points to a Geocities page from 2007 (what a trip down memory lane!). It does seem to be overlooked these days though; with the much better cubes we have these days (reverse corner cutting! magnetic alignment!), S moves are much better than they used to be and this alg clearly beats the standard RrMU algs for OH and maybe also 2H.

Oh, and you can cancel this into an H perm to get pure 4-flip:
S R' U' R U R U R U R2 U2 R2 U2 R S'

The MU alg for pure 4-flip is definitely better than this for 2H, probably also better for OH if you can table abuse, but without table abuse, this RUS alg should be faster.

r U r' U' r' F r2 U' r' U' r U r' F'

I was messing around with my 3x3 and I realized that if you do a T Perm, but with wide r moves instead of just the single layer, you can use that as an Aa Perm with the headlights on your left face.

It's well a known Algorithm

no way man. send me a link to where it has ever been posted. that's super disappointing if it were true.

 

[Mike Hughey]

The Speedsolving wiki shows this algorithm was added as an A perm on 15:18, 27 August 2010 by Kenneth.

well.....damn it. I'm still not entirely convinced that it is "well known," but that certainly is interesting.
