Hello Viewers!

I decided to make a dedicated thread for EAC method just like the Petrus method thread where i upload Petrus method solves.

In this thread i will upload all my EAC method solves, my observations like (the efficiency of this method in each cube 3 by 3 to 20 by 20).

I will also do fun experiments in this thread, like for example i solve 4 by 4 or any cube with every possible method, then i will observe that which method have the more move count, just to see that in which method am i lacking the most. I will share screenshots and my times.

NOTE- These will be my observations, so don't take it serious. All the methods are the best and everyone are skilled at their own particular methods.

So this is just my stupid idea to become efficient in all the methods in all cubes and to compare all the methods with my EAC method so that i come to know that what are the pros and cons of my method and how will i make EAC method more efficient and easy to learn.


I will make sure that this thread will not bore anyone, so my aim is to make this thread more exciting.

Also please comment your ideas and new approaches down, i would love to explore them.

Happy cubing and stay tuned!
 
Applied EAC method on 7×7-

Hello viewers!

This is an example solve of 7 by 7 using Edge anchored centers method.

Next time I will share two solves of 3 by 3, one using EAC method and another is Petrus method.

I will record multiple solves of these methods, and in both the methods I will compare my time as well as no of moves in each solve.

So let's see in which method I am more efficient.

But till then enjoy this 7 by 7 solve.

More solves coming soon!

Happy Cubing guys!
 
First of all thank you so much, yes it's a silly and unique approach.

I am not an experienced cuber, my time in 3 by 3 using EAC method is around 40 seconds, I use 2 look cfop.

In case of big cubes I think it's very inefficient, because of lots of slice moves during building centers.

And it's not a speedsolving method.

So bro you had a lot of experience than me and also a professional speedcuber, I think you try this method and tell is it good for speedcubing.

So about your question, I don't have an appropriate answer.

I think it varies person to person.
 
Detailed Explanation of EAC method-

I have tried to explain this method in 3 by 3, 4 by 4 and 5 by 5 in mobile app.

Right now I don't have my recording stand that's why I have not recorded it in physical mode.

Let me know if this help.

Please write the feedbacks that where am I lacking during an explanation, so that I can improve.

Comparative Analysis of 3×3 Solves: Beginner Method vs EAC Method-

Hello guys!

This is a quick comparison of my EAC method with the Beginner method.

In this comparison i have not focused on time but on move count, just to see which method takes less moves.

So here EAC method is more efficient than beginner method in terms of move count. I have tried to solve it efficiently.

GRAPHS FOR FUN-

NOTE- This is my analysis, all the methods are great, so kindly dont take it serious, these comparisons are just for fun. Also
time and move count varies person to person.



Next time i will do the analysis on EAC method and Petrus method, also i will share the solve video so that you can follow and correct me that where am i lacking in the solve.


And after 3 by 3 comparisons i will move to 4 by 4 and compare EAC method with all the methods.

Please share your ideas and feedbacks.

Stay tuned and Happy cubing!
 
EAC method applied on 8 by 8 -

Hello guys!

This is an example solve of 8 by 8 using EAC method.

I have tried to execute this method on a fast pace.

Follow this solve and try to execute this method from your end also, in case of any confusion just let me know.

More solves coming soon!
Happy cubing!

9 by 9 Example solve (Using EAC method)-

Here is an example solve of 9 by 9 using EAC method.

This is physical solve, from 10 by 10 I will be uploading a mobile solves.

Video link-

Also a small update- If anyone noticed I have not posted any solving update on my 6 by 6, 7 by 7 and 9 by 9 threads.

But that does not mean that I stopped.
I am still practicing and I will give you an update soon!

Till then enjoy this solve and stay tuned guys!
 
L5E on 9 by 9 using Cycles (EAC 2.0)-

Hi guys!


Here is the last 5 edges stage in 9 by 9 (example solve) .

This is the intuitive way of solving last 5 edges on any big cubes, without any algorithms, we just have to use smart cycles and we are done.


Stay Tuned!
 
Dear bratharo, I genuinely still have 0 idea what the yellow edges pairing thing was. You did video showing it but beo you did it super fast and just said alright lets pair red and blue and then did the algroithem you talked about (atleast that's the video i found) so I really would appreciate if yoy can send me any toturial algrorithem or the video that explains it cuz I couldnt find it

Are u talking about this 9 by 9 video

No no I mean the 4×4 i dont really use big cubes I only have 4×4 cube so I really hope you can help me do the pairing yellow edges part

Ya sure sure, let me record a video today, verbal explanation, where i will explain both eac and eac 2.0 edge paring, technique.

Eac 2.0 edge paring is logical where i use smart cycles, and in eac last 4 edges i pair 2 edges logically and then i use this algo -

Rw2 D Rw' U2 Rw D' Rw' U2 Rw'.

Eac last 4 edges are more easy.

Ok thanks
 
Also plz clarify do u understand the first steps, f2l pairing to block building, if not i will explain it like a game, not a rubiks cube.

Tomorrow u will get a video
 
well I think so I do but I cant do them very quickly its basically my frnb method but without all the oll stuff and on big cubes its really interesting I think its good
On a side note, my method was kinda bad because of the constant M moves spam, so I cant imagine doing it on big cube maybe you can do some changes on this part
