Seriously… when are we getting sub-2?

[Drewe]

if one of these unrealistic predictions come true, i will find you, and ask you more of what the future holds (and also more stuff about 3x3 >:] )

I feel like it's not insanely unrealistic, sure maybe slightly, but definitely not completely

 

[gsingh]

Realistically, never. Unless an extremely efficient method is created (talking like 20-35 moves on avg) and someone with insane tps (like 15+) uses it, I genuinely think it will never happen.

Are you talking about a sub 2 single or an average?

Earlier this year, we saw Teodor get a 2.76, which we had been waiting for since sub-4.
But so soon after a wave of 2s solves just poured into the speedcubing scene.
Bofan’s failed wr and finally… 2.51 by Xuanyi Geng. When do you think sub 2 will be surpassed?

I think next year we'll see a sub 2. Maybe!

single, I think

Before reading “2x2x2 Cube” I assumed it was 3x3 and got scared

It will be broken on the 12th December 2026 by Yiheng and it will be a 1.89

It will be broken in 5 seconds













Guess I was wrong

Is it just me who finds it annoying when people refer to solves like Xuanyi's 2.51 WR as a "two second solve", or saying that he "solved a cube in two seconds"? To me, the latter implies a solve of 2.00 or faster, as if he been given his 2.51 scramble for the first time and been told that he had two seconds to solve it, HE WOULDN'T HAVE DONE IT.

I can understand the your annoyance to "solved a cube in two seconds", as in other words, that would mean he solved a cube within a 2.00 second timeframe, but I don't really see what's wrong with "two second solve"? I personally don't think it would be more accurate to say the 2.51 WR is a 3 second solve

Yeah, I guess not - I did think when I typed it that it wasn't as bad.
