Help w/ oll's

[i4sci]

Does any one have any tips for olls as well as oll algoritums taht can or are usefull to know?

thx for the help

If you use partial edge control, you can avoid some OLL.

You should definitely look into it.

could you explain what partial edge control

 

[Muesli]

"Orienting the LL edges during F2L, by careful selection of F2L block insertion algs. "

Check the Wiki or Youtube. I think Badmephisto has a good tutorial.

When you have all edges flipped correctly you only need 7 OLL cases.

I would suggest just learning partial edge control, which means you don't have to learn all 57 OLL's. That is, if you don't want to learn all of them. If you don't mind, though, I would ditch the edge control and learn all of the algs.

 

[RorVovVovRor]

But flipping the edges is easy and it eliminates 88% of the OLL cases.

Or you could use Petrus.

Shhhh!!!

CFOP or roux.

I am running into an odd situation.

When I perform the r U R' U' r' F R F' algorithm, I end up having to then use the F' r U R' U' r' F R

I make sure that I execute the algorithms properly, sometimes the r U R' U' r' F R F' works and other times I need to use the second algorithm. Does anyone have a suggestion on an algorithm that would be more consistent? I tried searching however, I did not find anything directly related to this. I am a beginner 2-look OLL/PLL cuber so please be easy on me.

or you can stop being lazy, eat a cookie, and practice...find algs...and memorize them...I don't really think anything special is needed...

...except the cookie, that is special.

oh yeah!
The cookie will give you magical powers to do OLL like a master. GO COOKIE!

Point taken...I'll figure it out.

Sounds like a recognition issue...when I play your two algs backward, the case generated is not the correct one (I got the "car" case, which is F (R U R' U')x3 F'). Make sure you're looking at the right pattern.

Thank you Teller, I may be performing the algorithm incorrectly, I will run a few at a slower pace to make sure I correct this. Thank you very much for the input, I figured someone else looking at this would help.

I prefer R U2 R' U' R U R' U' R U' R' which is an Anti-Sune with a Sexy Move in the middle which doesn't have a grip change.

He explains how he memorizes them very well.
