Unpopular Opinions: Cubing

[Mudkip]

What are some of your views regarding cubing that other cubers often disagree with?

1. Rubik's brand cubes are decent for speedsolving.
2.Petroleum Jelly is great for rubik's brand cubes. It won't damage the cube, and sticker peeling is bound to happen anyway.

Thoughts?

 

[uberCuber]

I agree with 1.

3. M-slice edge pairing is superior to E-slice pairing for 5x5+ in reduction. >:S

Color neutral is pure win.

Multislotting is the future.

Don't think Petroleum Jelly is "great" but I still doubt it "dissolve" plastic up to this day.

CFOP should be called CFOP and not Fridrich

 

[Andreaillest]

The ShengShou 4x4 V3 isn't that great of a cube.

Cubing: why does it always have to be about speed?

Beginners shouldn't use good cubes.
You shouldn't learn OLL until you're close to sub-20.

Edit: wait, I missunderstood, I thought we were supposed to post comments we didn't agree with. Just to be clear I think the statements above are complete bull****.

lol you're posting in the wrong thread

You shouldn't learn OLL until you're close to sub-20.

You shouldn't learn OLL at all.

I dunno how many agree/disagree, but feetsolving is a step to far (no pun intended).

mine is amazing

lemme try... the guhong is an awful piece of junk

no srsly i fricken hate it

 

[MalusDB]

Calling it a piece of junk isn't exactly fair, It's at the least a decent cube, regardless of preference. But it has massive hype (still). I like mine though

 

[chrissyD]

thats sorta my point

Andreaillest's ss 4x4 might be bad but mine is somehow amazing

My guhong is just a heap of crap but yours might be great

Heise > CFOP
The Type F3 is amazing.
V-cubes 5x5 is in a different league than any other brand's
Solving with chopsticks should be an official event.

 

[Ezy Ryder]

I can imagine the Dayan Chopsticks. Are You serious about Heise? Or are You talking about FMC?

 

[somerandomkidmike]

I didn't specify what I was talking about.
Here's one:
QJ megaminx V1 is great.
