DiamondGolem's Quest to get gud

[DiamondGolem12]

Hi,
This is my thread to get gud. Right now my averages, goals and mains are

• 2x2: 5.5 secs, sub 5, MGC 2
• 3x3: 19 secs, sub 20, Gan 11M Pro
• 4x4: About 2.5 mins, sub 2, Zhilomg mini 4x4
• 5x5: Just over 4 mins, sub 4 MGC 5
• Squan: About 1.5 mins, idk, volt v2
• Mega: I don't time my solves, YJ V2M

I use Ortega for 2x2, CFOP (I'm learning Mehta) for 3x3, Yau for 4x4 and 5x5, Tingman beginner method for squan and beginner method for Mega.

Here is my YT (I do cubing and gaming): https://youtube.com/channel/UC6Pgystx5NPRZrqZfw4HqaQ

Does anyone have any tips on how to beat my targets especially 3x3?

Thank you

Hi,
I have just hit my goal of sub-35 average so I'd like to start learning a few PLL algs. Which are the easiest ones I can learn?

Thanks!

If you're refering to learning them in a specific order, I would suggest learning the J perms, the R perms, the A perms, then the F and E perm, then the V perm, G perms, and finally the N perms. Even though you eventually will learn all of this algs so order doesn't really matter.

And if you're asking for algs, then I would recommend Jperm.net, but people may have better sources.

You missed the T perm

Honestly first of all there is no need for full pll until about 20-25 seconds. If you really want to learn full pll though than it's honestly up to personal preference, you can start with easy cases like j perms to begin with, you can start with the hardest ones like g perms. Or just do whatever order you want.

Do search PLL attacks online. You can try drilling all the PLLs in the order that most people do the PLL attacks.

I prefer the order, G G G G J J T N N E A Y A R R V F H Z U U .

 

[Skewb_Cube]

I didn't put the U, H, Z, Y or T perm because he's going for full PLL so I assume he already knows 2 look PLL which includes those algs.

Learn them in an order. It doesn't really matter, but definitely learn them all asap. Good algs can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17FBCIInZyqw-fcmIzaQnJ-NqH5JewaoSE050HN0VSwI/edit#gid=0

Thanks, I used Jperm.net to drill 4lll so I probably will use it again .

Ooh, that's a good sheet of algs, thanks!

Wow! Some really good tips there. I'll try do that when I'm practising.

I think you should learn the edge cases first, then the adjacent corner + edge cases (excluding g perms,) then corner cases, diagonal corner + edge, and then the g perms.

If you know 2-look last layer, I suggest learning J perms first. If you don't know 2 look last layer I suggest you do that for OLL and PLL.

you mean 4 look last layer?

 

[benthecuber]

Yes, 4 look last layer, but 2 look OLL and PLL.

learn the easy ones, then the hard ones.

Quick update: I'm learning 1 or 2 PLLs every day and I've learned both T perms and J perms. I also got a new PB of 24.834, and an ao100 of 33 secs! Thank you for helping me.

One of the resources I used when learning PLLs was Bob Burton's website, since he describes how he executes and how he recognizes. I don't use all of his algorithms, but if you look at his PLL page, I more or less learned in the same order of "groups", except I learned the G-perms last.

Not sure if that's the best order, but it worked for me. Sometimes I learned in slightly different order, if I recognized a similarity from something I had learned previously (in 2x2, for example).

 

[PapaSmurf]

Bob Burton's algs are pretty dated but the actual site is good.

 

[Jam88]

EPLL's, then CPLL's then J's, R's, T, F, V, Y, G's, N's
Is how I learnt them.

 

[DNF_Cuber]

I did U, J ,H,Z,A,E,Y,R,T,V,F,N,G

Ok I'm going to change this thread into a quest one.
