Any tips for sub-15 3x3?

[NebraskanSpeedsolver]

I almost know full PLL (just G-Perms left, I'm close)
I know a few OLL cases, but I don't want to learn full OLL as of right now.
Any tips or tricks to help me consistently get sub-15 on 3x3?

practice your F2L loke a crazy person
" crazy? I'll tell you about crazy..."

JPerm has some good videos on F2L (maybe a playlist even?)

also, yoi should definitely check out Brody the Cuber on YT, he has a kot of great videos for intermediate and advanced F2L and also neat efficient tricks for dealing with lots of diff F2L cases

https://m.youtube.com/@BrodytheCuber/featured

He's got a playlist for F2L
(and you can also just Search his channelnfor F2L)

also, you can't go wrong with Chris Olson's YT videos (legend & former 2×2 WR holder)
never hurts to get another perspective

also, go ahead and get some more OLLs under your hat...
Brody has good videos on them, and
Jperm's trainer on his site
jperm.net
he has good efficient versions of all 57 OLLs and you can learn small groups based on their shapes
plus it's a trainer so you can time yourself on them and keep track of how well you're doing

Come ON lol ... I know about 35-40 of them, and I dont even do CFOP!
I'm a ROUX solver /o/

I also have school to start dealing with tho...
first semester I'm at school from 6am to 4pm

Finish learning full Pll, and drill all of them so that they are sub 2.5 at a bare minimum. If you want to drill them to sub 1.5, go for it. For Oll, I’d recommend learning a few of the cases from the top of this list https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sq4w0eg5n73WGLnhiYVYe_QbTdhF-rSj/view?usp=sharing
for F2l, like @artless1der said, watch J perm, Brody, and Chris. I’d recommend practicing the cases in this video specifically

Only thing I can think of is learn full oll (it isn’t that bad actually) and do better look ahead.

but seriously, F2L takes the most time in your solves and generally it takes the longest to get efficient and fast at... start there bro

What are you at right now? If you're in the 16-18 range it is actually quite impressive to get there without full OLL and PLL. I would make OLL and PLL a priority

I'm in between 18-19
I did my best to learn as much PLL as I could this summer because once school starts my schedule is jammed with stuff I gotta do

Trust me… learn oll. It doesn’t take as long as you think (it probably took me a month) and as long as you do them everyday, (I learned a case subset a day, but it depends how big the set is,) and then practice the ones you already know, It isn’t that bad

I can try, but most times (in the same case as PLL) I tried to do a few a day, but I didn't really have a ton of time, and I wasn't able to figure out G-Perms before summer ended (I have like 2 weeks left before school starts, but next week I won't have any time)

G perms can be learned in a week. I learned them in 3 days. #1 and the one that you get when you do #1 the first day, then the other two the same way. Practice all of them on the third day

I am terrible at memorizing algs
It took me a month to learn R-perms and V-perm

Cube in class then.

Cube in class then.

I tried that last year...
let's just say high school teachers are too crazy about plastic "toys" during class

Get a duck avatar, that will help...

Also if your learning CFOP figure out which step you require the most practice...

my pfp is better than the duck cul--- I mean, group

 

[artless1der]

my pfp is better than the duck cul--- I mean, group

but if its a duck *solving* a cube...
OR ... if the duck IS a cube ...
that would be younique

I think, octopus is way more better, even if it is just a toy……
