Want advice for f2l

[Vinayak_009044]

Hey guys! I wanted to know should i learn f2l algorithmically or intuitively??? I average 16 seconds.

Hi, I think f2l is easier and takes less time to learn intuitively. Are you currently using the beginner's method for the first two layers? Because if so, you're super fast with it.

No i use advanced f2l. I can complete cross + f2l in 10 or less seconds but oll and pll takes a lott of time. That's why I am working on them. But wanted to ask about f2l.

Are you using 1 or 2 look OLL and PLL, because if it is 2 look for both then that will take a lot longer for you to solve then if both are 1 look.

1 look.

There should be an F2L trainer somewhere(please someone else post the link) and after a session it can tell you which F2L cases are slow for you. These are the cases you want to look for efficient solutions and learn algorithms for.
You can do this multiple times throughout your timeline, just let time and solves pass in between sessions(maybe 2 close in a row then 2 weeks pause).
Ideally, one starts off learning intuitive F2L, and as they get faster, they learn more and more algorithms for difficult cases, EO cases or multislotting cases.

So you mean i should learn algorithms? Is it okay if I have already learned each and every single case's algorithm?

Lol I use beginners method f2l and avg 16 seconds too.
