Nir1213's Quest to Sub-20 with CFOP!

If an alg has f, r, u, or whatever, it doesn't mean it's bad, and if you are not good at any move, practice will fix it. And the alg you have with the B moves I don't think is good, because you have to regrip to do does B moves. Obviously not every alg is bad if it has B moves, but the thing is to have nice fingertricks to execute them.
i guess your right but i really think my alg is fine

thats not bowtie oll thats the headlights but its facing sideways im talking about bowtie oll the one with 2 corners already done
Right sorry. I meant the inverse, so F R' F' r U R U' r'
 
Nir1213,

This is super confusing that you changed the thread from sub-1 minute to sub-40. Please, next time just start a different thread.

In answer to your new question: Practice getting down 4LLL consistently. That should get you pretty close to low 40s average, if not lower. Then start learning as many PLL algorithms as you can to start dropping your time even more.

Learn F2L algorithms, but I personally don’t think you should focus on memorizing them. They will come naturally in time, and you won’t even have to think about them, you’ll just be able to do. Start by learning to find and solve one pair before moving on to the next. Then, move on to finding one pair, then finding the next as you solve the first.

Anyway, you CAN do this, but it’s going to take a lot of practice. By practice, I mean spend some time learning new algorithms and when to apply them, some time memorizing and really getting them down, some time timing yourself, and some time just cubing without a clock. You need practice in all these areas to succeed.

its not my fault that i did it, lukas suggested me it and i didnt know it would be confusing. I thought starting another thread would be kinda annoying to other people instead of posting it here, anyway sorry for that.
Thanks for the tips tho
 
This is a thread where i practice and learn cases and algs to get to sub 40.
Right now i learned intuitive f2l but i also need help and tips with it.

so now i have this problem where i see that before i learned intuitive f2l i had a 40 second average on f2l, so i went to learn intuitve f2l to get a lower f2l average, but now that i use intuitvte f2l my solve time is 1 minute and 30 seconds on average??
does this need more practice or i am doing it wrong?

That is absolutely normal. When I started using F2L, my times were just weird. I used to average 1 minute, then I used F2L, went to 2 minutes, then practiced, went down to 1 minute 10 seconds, found out that I did something wrong, went up to 3 minutes, practices, went to 40, realized that I screwed up somehow again, went to 50, and now I'm at 35.

woah. I was sub-50 beginner and sub-1:30 with beginner CFOP and went down to sub-30 then learned like 30 algs in the next week and now im sub-20.

Also for Nir12-whatever, you just need to practice and you will get way better. Learning more algs is good too.
 
As @Spacey10 said, normally when someone learns something new and time their selves, your solves are going to be slower, and that happened me too. I was sub-45 with beginners and sub-1:15 with beginners last layer (not 4LLL) and intuitive F2L. With practice your times are going to go back to normal and then even lower.

And just practice. I'm saying this because practice is always crucial at cubing, for example, with just intuitive F2L and beginner last layer (again, not 4LLL) I got to sub-40.

lol tWISt eNdING
just need practice i guess but i will never have a outcome like yours lol

That means i can get sub 40 with just intuitive f2l???? might be the easiest quest ever lol
anyway i will check you back when i get faster at intuitive or i need a better way for an f2l case.
 
Haha lets see what your gonna do when i have a sub 20 quest
lol i probably be sub-15 or more. Good Luck with whatever you are doing.

I'm probably be recommending, look ahead, full PLL, etc. But don't see those things yet. :)

I bet you didn't saw that coming...
im sub-20 full PLL and 51 OLL (I plan to learn other 6 before this weekend)
 
I suggest learning these
this will help you get faster (4LLL)

The last 2 solves, was me just desperately spamming sunes and antisunes, hoping to orient the edges

Just did an average of 5 with intuitive F2L and beginner Last Layer. So, you could get an average like this (obviously the 20s didn't really happened to me at the time, I'm using the average as reference). And because you already know 4LLL you can get sub-30.

ok lets re-learn 4LLL again! Yay!! Will take just another 2 weeks.. :)
