Ortega is really easy to learn on 2x2, its only like 10 algs, provided you don't already know OLL from 3x3. I think you have a better shot of being sub 15 with roux, because it takes less tps, however, if you want to be sub-1 on 4x4 you are better off with CFOP because M slices suck on big cubes.

but 4x4 isn't a big cube.

Well, turning my moves on one is still hard, especially if your inner magnets aren't so strong, or its a bad cube overall (If you say YLM I swear)

The YLM has weak magnets.

Roux works well on 4x4. I'd recommend a method like Meyer, which is like the "Yau4" for Roux users. M slices aren't an issue on 4x4 assuming you have strong enough inner magnets. wink wink mjs who mains ylm

On 5x5+ CFOP is definitely better, but honestly when it comes to big cubes having good center building and edge pairing skills is more important

 

[MJS Cubing]

The YLM has weak magnets.

while they are weak, I think the ones in my YuSu v2 M are weaker, although the core on mine is broken rn, so I can't test. I think when my new core comes in I'll do a comparison.

 

[ProStar]

Wait why are you practicing CFOP? Isn't your main method Roux?

 

[Lilas ma]

Yes , but I am planning to learn all methods ; I've learned ZZ and petrus also but I I dont practice them because they are not worthing it

Get the YLM or the YuSu v2 M. If you have the budget, spring for the MGC. I like the little magic the most though.
@DNF_Cuber please don't end me

Umm sadly I have a cube called fanasty cube and it is very bad , but ...... I cant buy another one because there is no shop can ship for my country.
And if it does it costs alot , and we have to pay in $ not our own currency.
And we dont have $ in our country bcz no one use it

 

[DiamondGolem12]

I think SpeedCubeShop ships to Turkey

 

[Lilas ma]

I am not in Turkey right now . I am stuck in Syria bcz of Corona

Yaaa I got a 14.35 solve on 3×3×3 with CFOP !

1:23.28 in 4×4×4 that's very bad

Yaaa I got a 14.35 solve on 3×3×3 with CFOP !

Omg bad solves again .....
New solve 24.37

How is your OH Ao40 better than your 2H Ao50?

 

[DNF_Cuber]

How is your OH Ao40 better than your 2H Ao50?

He switched from roux to CFOP for 2h. Doesn't make sense to me, because he must have been pretty fast at 2h to get 17 second times consistently at OH.

 

[Lilas ma]

I used to he sub 10 with roux in 2h but when I switched to cfop in 2h I became slower

 

[DNF_Cuber]

I used to he sub 10 with roux in 2h but when I switched to cfop in 2h I became slower

why did you switch???

 

[Deleted member 55877]

I used to he sub 10 with roux in 2h but when I switched to cfop in 2h I became slower

i'd recommend you switch back to roux tbh

 

[Lilas ma]

why did you switch???

I dont find many people using roux to learn from ....
Most of people are cfopers , so I thought it is easier that roux , but for real it is too much harder ....
And also other reason for using cfop it that I'm learning new methods every period I get bored

BUT ROUX STILL MY MAIN METHOD
