what is the 3x3x3 single WR boundary.

[Thompson]

5-10 TPS + God's number (20 moves to solve cube) O: 4 to 2 seconds >.<

Lol imagine a 2 second solve.

 

[Zeat]

Ive never seen anything lower than Yu's 6.57, and it was a PLL skip, for all i know, i don't see how it could go any lower than 4.50... then again we've were worshiping sub 20 not so long ago... so yeah. But a sub 7 avg... now THAT would kick some ass. Go Feliks.

Feliks has a video doing a 6.12 sec

 

[Ditto64]

I think people will get to around 5 sec.
Then it will start relying on LL skips to become faster.
Besides I don't really know how rare an LL skip is, I just know it's very rare.
But this is all just my opinion.

same here, just like how the current 3x3 single WR hasn't been broken for a while. people can do it, even though they do it without skips, it requires an easy scramble. honestly, i feel like the average is going to start catching up to the single WR.

Don't get ahead of yourself...new single WR comes before a sub 7.5 average, or I think it should.
And even Feliks gets happy when he gets a sub 8, which doesn't happen enough to have a sub 8 average yet.

Yeah, Full step too

 

[Joker]

I don't think this is a question about "if", more like a question about "when"

im not saying that would happen this moment. i meant over time getting a WR single will be more dificult to get. and slowly, times will get more consistant and the avergaes will be much closer to the single solves.

Don't put pressure on Feliks... He has enough

No one is. And besides, we can put all the pressure we want on him, he doesn't have to listen.

Oooh, Aren't you a little rebel.

You do realise it's not pressure until he does listen right?

Also, how would you like it if at a comp, everyone who doesn't live under an internet rock was looking at you to get the next world record. You'd either be pumped, or nervous, but it's almost impossible for a normal person to be completely unaffected.

Are you saying that faz is normal?

Are you saying that faz is normal?

Are you saying he isn't?

 

[The Puzzler]

DIS!

 

[qqwref]

I bet 7.08 will never get beaten or even tied.

In 2020, the WR will be Faz with an average of 7.09 7.09 (8.46) 7.09 (7.09).

 

[RyanReese09]

Doing it in competition leads me to believe that 5.5-6 is the lowest it will go

 

[Whyusosrs?]

DIS!

What the freak are you talking about.

 

[QCcuber4]

Faz is a normal person like everyone else wtf is this?

 

[FatBoyXPC]

I think it's quite possible to sub5 in comp if the top 20 were able to do competitions multiple times weekly. Think about it, the top 20 all F2L in under 5 seconds (at least for their PB times), so an LL skip would throw that sub5 very easily (anybody remember Rowe's video where he did the 7.08? He had a 3.6 F2L).

Erik somewhat had an advantage, he was hitting competitions almost every weekend for quite a stretch. I'm by no means saying this is unfair, but he had more of a shot to set WR's than most Americans (although several Europeans had plenty of opportunity as well). I'm not trying to take Erik's credit away, he still did a great job, I was just throwing this out there.
