Hello everyone
This will be my progression thread. My goals at the moment are 3x3 sub-15, current PB ao5 16.45s and single 12.93s. The other main goal is 4x4 sub-1, current PB ao5 1:11.01 and single 56.63. I am thankfull of every tip you can give me. Algs I am learning full OLL at the moment and I know full PLL.
Sometimes I will also post FMC as this is also one of my favorite events but I won't focus on that here.
Have fun following my progress and thanks for the helpful comments I can await

New PB
In the warm up for this weeks Competition I hit a new 3x3 single PB of 12.71 with a crazy 6 move X-Cross.
In the weekly comp I hit a average of 18.70 on 3x3 and 1:15.88 on 4x4 with single bests of 17.29 and 1:10.72.
Not the best result in 4x4 but solid in 3x3.
Short question, which OLL set should I learn next I have W, Fish, Dot, Akward and l-Shapes left?

PS: Just after making the post I hit a 12.57. I also forgot the scrambles so here they are:
12.71: D L R2 U L2 U' L2 U' B2 R2 B2 L2 U2 F U B L2 D' L F2
12.57: F' U' F2 L2 D2 F' U2 L' U F2 D' F2 U B2 D' B2 R2 D2 L2 U2

Fish (cases are easy to recognise and fast), then probably just choose between W / awkward / I, then do dots (but get good algs for them).
It doesn't really matter too much what order you do them in, but this is roughly the order I learned these sets because I wanted to save the hardest for last (I shapes particularly I found hard to memo and for dots there are 8 cases).
 
Thanks for the recomendations, I will start learning.
In the meantime I have a crazy new PB of 11:77 to report. I had a crazy F2L pair skip + an PLL skip on Top I got a nice 16:70 average in the session

I have learned the W cases and the awkwards, and also learned fish and l but have problems memorizing them. So there is still much room to pass in the meantime.
 
Hey i am back.
For the ones that already watched, I am now sub-1 on 4x4 but I'm not yet sub-15 3x3.
I am working on Megaminx sub-1:30 I am about 1:35 at the moment. Furthermore I am working on 2x2 and wanting to learn cll for my next comp on 1st of April. I will also be working on my Big cubes and somtimes give updates on that.

For the moment, what are good cll cases to learn, and where should I start

Hey I'm also going to a comp on the 1st of April, what comp are you going to?
 
Hey everyone, I learned all the H and Sune CLLs this week. I think i'll move on to antisune and look afterwards. In the meantime I got a new PB ao5 of 3.29 seconds.
