Which is better? What method do you use? What is used by top cubers such as Max and Feliks etc?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bombardment of questions

I use Yau5 because it is easier for me Thats basically the point of this thread anywayHey, I’m planning to get into 5x5 if I get one for Christmas. What method do you recommend?
Can anyone help- very new to this- trying to learn how to solve 5x5, can this be solved? 4 sides are solved and I have this on this side and opposite side?
Thanks
L2C: Make a 2×3 block on the left side of the front face, then spam Rw and U moves until you solve the last bar. The "Sunes" (Rw U Rw' U Rw U2 Rw' and Rw U' Rw' U' Rw U2 Rw') are useful to deal with cases where there's only one x-centre (a corner-centre) left to fix.I just got a 5x5 yesterday, is there just one or two algs I can use to solve L2C/L2E? I have to go to an alg site and look for 1/10ish right now, and I'd rather not learn a bunch of algs just for a basic solve.
I like to use slice flip slice and two algs to solve specific cases (Parity and swap two wings)I just got a 5x5 yesterday, is there just one or two algs I can use to solve L2C/L2E?

I'm really late, but hold the two solved sides on the left/right, and do e2 m e2 m'
I've noticed Feliks doing it a few times, so probably yes. (In the sense that you're using keyhole in addition to regular F2L pairs, rather than using exclusively keyhole to solve the first three slots, which is Bad and you shouldn't do that.)Is it a good idea to do keyhole on big cubes? Thanks
I do, and I feel stuck where I am.Anyone here avg around 2:40 on 6x6?

Imagine gluing the middle five layers together; now you have what's equivalent to a 5×5×5 with a very fat middle layer. (a.c.n)So, got my 9x9 a couple days ago. The first time, I was able to solve it without a problem. But this time I have a weird edge parity. Looking at my last edge from left to right, the pieces are: flipped, normal, normal, normal, normal, normal, flipped. This doesn't look like regular 5x5 edge parity, and when I tried the edge parity alg it didn't do anything special. All other edges are paired
