Sub-10 progression thread along with to able to do every method i know

Update: i found out where im slow at,it isnt really the cross,usually i see that is when i finished F2L im on anywhere between the 10th-14th second so why is it averaging 18-22 cause my LL is so slow,if my Ll were 2-4 secs i would've average like 15-17 secs,welp
 
Update: im still stuck,i need to improve my cross and f2l and i dont know how?my last layer is also getting abit faster which is great,
Got any tips? Need them
 
Update: now averaging 17-22 secs,depends its now like cross good times good,cross bad times bad ,my entire solve depends on my cross and f2l,the mode of my times are usually 19-20 secs, i dont really know how do the world champions come up with such a unique cross plan
 
Update:my average had increased from 18-22 to 19-23 sometimes 25,i need help on my solves,
I have these solves from this forums timer and see what have changed
3×3 — Session 1 (30 solves)
best: 16.882
mean: 21.979
ao5: 23.606
ao12: 23.170

last 12: 30.485, 20.275, 21.598, 22.678, 24.441, 25.032, 18.759, 23.384, 21.364, 19.446, 26.071, 27.420

Damn an inconsistent time

Ill find some example solves from sub 10 people to see their f2l solutions and cross,and ill use it to improve
 
Update: does anyone care? Idk,so i just got a megaminx,the qiyi qiheng M,its pretty good ,i did a few solves and i like the quality,for 2x2 i dont have one since my old one broke,for skewb and pryaminx,how do i lower my times? I literally average longer than my 3x3

I care! I find it cool how you want to learn a lot of different methods, I also like methods. For Skewb and Pyraminx, I'd need to know more on how you solve, but make sure that you have good fingertricks since those puzzles can be awkward to turn when you first get them.
 
Thanks guys,btw for correcting your michael,i dont really have a global average😅 ,ive never went to a comp berfore,i do want to go to the singapore 2 day dec 2026 but my parents wont allow so yeah,and for powstick for skewb i use the normal beginner way where i just make the white face then make the yellow corners them fix the corners,and for pyra i do the way where we fix the corners then insert the more inner edges then insert the outer edges then do the Last layer.

My 3x3 times has decreased abit,i average 18-19 more now than 20+,i even got a 13 when i was just demonstrating a beginner friend a lookahead and no lookahead solve
I haven't touched the 4x4 for a while but i'll get back to it soon, my current sub goal for now is sub 15, i would say simplifying my thread title its just i wanna be sub 10 and a all rounder

Alright thats all for now👍

(Curious,why do i see powstick everywhere?)
