gsingh's Road to Sub 6

[gsingh]

I decided to record some 4x4 solves, and the first one was a 28.08. That means I definitely average sub 29 (that's how averages work right?)































ignore the fact that the ao5 was 38

If you adhere to @bulkocuber's logic, yes.

It's a pizza place
Gonna go learn dot olls brb

Wait, you’re telling us that you don’t know dots, and you average 7? Sussy

I just avoid them
Matty doesn't know them either and he's sub 6 lmao


Also OPA is frustrating

Not only is the suffix completely inappropriate, but your usage of the word "suspicious" makes absolutely no sense. Dot OLL's are less than 15% of OLL and are the easiest OLL's to avoid. Not knowing dot OLL's will effect your singles but it won't prevent someone from being sub-8. You don't even need to know any 1-look OLL cases to be sub-8.

well 2look OLL also consists of 1 look OLL cases so I would definitely recommend learning some 1 look OLLs to become sub 8 (assuming CFOP here, sue me)

3-look CFCE can get sub-8 and uses CFOP algorithms without reducing to what is technically one-look OLL (since it is really one look EO with an algorithm that doesn't affect corners)

a bit far fetched imo

also i think you can't be sub 8 and not know the sune alg, which immediately this statement

is wrong

but it doesn't matter anyway and we're getting a bit of topic lol

You can use a z rotation or an x' rotation and perform a commutator on what is no longer the top layer.

or you could just use

why did you click here, seriously?

Lol 69% accuracy for 4x4 OPA

Mine is 50%

I use ARP tracing btw if anyone was wondering.

 

[DuckubingCuber347]

I use ANOP (Assume No OLL Parity) and have a roughly 50% success rate. 100% potential sounds great though, what source are you using to learn OPA?

Tracing trainer: https://einarkl.github.io/Kubing/OPA
The trainer is very useful, I recommend using it a lot to get used to tracing.

I take half the credit for that joke

YES YES YES WESTERNS IS IN BERKELEY

 

[baseballjello67]

YES YES YES WESTERNS IS IN BERKELEY

I'm probably going!

I didn't go last year even though it was only an hour away (i was on a trip)

My goal is to Westerns top 10 in 2x2 and get some PR's! (means top 10 out of all competitors from Hawaii, Nevada, and California)

 

[gsingh]

Am I getting into 2x2? We'll see.
