Is Roux the best method for OH?

[acrystal]

You've probably seen a thread I've made called "Is petrus the best method for FMC?". This is a sequel.
I went to 2 comps with OH and i have flopped twice (1:04.96, 1:30.XX), (48.59, 47.19) (YES I also flopped in FMC, 2 DNFS & DNS). So now i need to improve so im planning to learn Roux. Is this good, or so i stick to CFOP?

It really depends on how much effort you want to put into it. At your speed, if you don't already know Roux, then it likely won't be faster unless you put in a ton of work to learn how to be efficient. You'd likely see better results if you just practised CFOP, since you're nowhere near fast enough for the method to realistically make a difference. So just stick with CFOP since you most likely already have experience with it, and learn how to turn and fingertrick properly since I can guarantee that's one of the major areas you're lacking in right now.

Also improtant info, i am changing my 3x3 main method to OP (Orcora Petrus), and i have only learnt half of the OLL and PLL sets.

Roux is very good method.

But I prefer a variant of it for OH solving, yruRU method

roux is a good OH method
but i personally don’t use it because i need to learn how to double flick M moves with my left hand which i don’t want to spend effort for. So instead, i opted for APB, which is also a very good method. CEOR seems interesting as well. The only downsides is that i don’t know ZBLL yet so i can’t get the full benefits of APB

CFOP gets me sub 20 with oh...
It is quite efficient primarily because it allows you to plan out your next 3-4 moves in advance (for me anyway)
But that's just me. CFOP is easy for oh once you get the hang of it really.

Team YruRU/CEOR here too, table abuse is not my thing but cubing in public transport is

Roux is best unless you are planning to learn full ZBLL for APB.

APB is best for OH imo, roux has too much table abuse and m moves (which are hard to fingertrick in OH imo).

CEOR is a good method too, but has a confusing inspection.

 

[Swagrid]

CEOR is probably as good or maybe possible better, but Roux is more proven and has plenty of resources

 

[CrossPetrus]

I think CEOR has the most potential, mainly because Roux transitions and turning can be awkward.
