Most Underrated Cubers?

[Tim Major]

Overrated: Me

I think the reason I am so overrated is that I share my pb's and make videos of my current speed.

Yes, but at the same time, your 2x2 and 3x3 a12's beat the World Record a5. So you're dominant at both.

Breandon is crazy at 3x3 and good at 2x2, but you're crazy at both. Peopel don't say you're the best in the world, as most people do rate Harris and Breandon higher, but after them, who next? We rate you highly because you're awesome! I still think most people would say that you're top 5 at 3x3 in the world, and I would say you're top 3 in the world at 2x2.


Did I mention that you're awesome, and deserve to be rated highly? And you had a 6.59 or something with a PLL skip you forced, yet you tell almost no one about it.

What about Hazzelelponi Gabot?
She had a pretty good official sub 7 3x3 single at CO if i remember correctly.

Just checked this http://www.worldcubeassociation.org...onId=&years=&show=100+Persons&average=Average and maybe you're right. I though there was Rowe and Edouard sub 4, and the rest were over 4. Why was everyone tipping Rowe in the Worlds, when there are many other people also close. Change that to top 5 after Phil Thomas. BTW, does he still cube? Coz if he doesn't then he doesn't count.

Definitely Breandan, he got some recognition a few months ago due to his sub-10 average of 12 but he was underrated until he won the WC. He's a nice guy and he is responsive on youtube as well unlike a number of great cubers. He deserved to win, I felt he deserved to get at least a sub-9 but it was not to be, so good luck to him next time

Well, afaik Phil Thomas does still cube, everybody tipped Rowe because Rowe is the WR holder and has reinforced it twice I think (plus he knows the best method ).
And Faz really isn't top 5 at 2x2; his PB his low 3s which is good, but I know for a fact that 9/12 of the top 12 have had a sub 3 average of 12, and I would be extremely surprised if there wasn't at the very least twice that number who've had sub 3 averages (David Woner for example) who aren't up there.
That said, If he got round to learning CLL he would get a sub 3 average with little difficulty and be one of the better 2x2ers in the world.
Feliks is extremely good at 3x3, megaminx and 5x5, and very good at everything else

EDIT: Breandan doesn't own a 2x2... How can he be 'good'?
EDIT2: Top 5 might be a little generous for 3x3; Harris Chan, Erik Akkersdijk & Breandan Vallance have all sub 9.5ed an a12, and it's probable that Breandan has had a sub 10 a50, and there are plenty of people in the top 50 for 3x3 that we know nearly nothing about, many who are probably capable of sub 10ing (Pichedpan anyone?).

I'm trying to say that Feliks is absolutely amazing, but he likely isn't top 5... yet.

I suck at megaminx Rowan, you should know that.

I need to learn full CLL.

sub 7...minutes?

 

[Escher]

Yeah, but so does everybody else

I need to learn full CLL.

You really do! It's not hard... What cases do you have yet to learn?

Underrated: Me.

No one knows I have a 33.40 PLL time attack.

You know..all you have to do is get one on video

Underrated: The guy above me...I'm serious.

He can pwn me at BLD easy now and even blah(suprise!!) perhaps.
