What’s your unpopular cubing opinion?

Nexcube 2x2 is a very good 2x2.

Unpopular Opinions: Cubing

What are some of your views regarding cubing that other cubers often disagree with? 1. Rubik's brand cubes are decent for speedsolving. 2.Petroleum Jelly is great for rubik's brand cubes. It won't damage the cube, and sticker peeling is bound to happen anyway. Thoughts?

I prefer stickered cubes as I like the grip it gives. I also wish 2x2 had much less if not no inspection as it would increase the skill gap and make it so that you can't just one look every solve.

gan is overpriced so only buy the lubes
pyraminx is a good event (sorry)
OLL is unnecessary (sorry)
6 drops is unnecessary

I agree with 3x3 not being the best event. But 2x2???? 5x5 is superior. Also, YJ is the best (as a big cube lover) everything else is fine

based but cfop overrated

based but cfop overrated

i do agree to a certain extent
knowing the big 3 (CFOP, ZZ, and roux) helps
zz on big cubes is superior

unpopular opinion: any cube newer than 2021 is bad

(main is from 2018 )

If it can't do a U2 without effort then it's slow


I don't get why the people say the RS3M is fast, it feels so slow and sluggish. Same with the WRM 2021. And basically most cubes, really.

I’m saying no human physically could use a cube like that due to constant overturning and whatnot
