So I recently made a RubenKing cube, and I orient 5 of the centers when solving, but I don't know how to orient the last layer center piece.

Any algs that just rotate a center piece in place - by 180degrees? by 90 degrees?

Or a method to solve the last layer while being mindful of the center piece orientation?

‎(M' U M) E (M' U' M) E' -- > This will twist the F center clockwise, and the L center anticlockwise.
(L R U2 L' R' U)2 or (R' U' R U')5 --> will turn the U center by 180 degrees.

How is the gans 2 3x3? Can't find a lot of info on it.

do not get it

I didn't like mine so I sold it for the same price I bought it

any good oh h and z perms
for left hand

Or use the MU with table

what magics should i get i'm very choppy with magics and don't bother to restring

 

[ThomasJE]

H perm for left hand: R2 U2 R U2 R2 U2 R2 U2 R U2 R2
I use the right hand inverse: L2 U2 L' U2 L2 U2 L2 U2 L' U2 L2

A good left OH alg would have R and U turns.
A good right OH alg would have the inverse - L and U turns.

I need a right hand 2-gen Z - it would just be the inverse of the left hand alg.

What is the most quiet 3x3?

 

[MayurAK]

Is averaging 25 -30 seconds with intuitive f2l, oll and pll okay?

 

[Litz]

It all depends on your definition of "okay". Most of the fastest solvers use intuitive f2l, oll and pll so you know the kind of times you can get with that method. For what it's worth, I use the same method (average ~12) and say it's okay. Keep practicing!

It's not bad. Try working on lookahead for F2L though, and maybe learn 1 look OLL and PLL if you don't already know it.

im stuck at ~23 avg so im on the same position

 

[JohnLaurain]

When starting intuitive f2l, I know you should gain time, but is gaining around 10-15 seconds normal?

Completely; I got back to where I was before switching to F2L about 2 or 3 days after switching, I believe.

 

[ThomasJE]

Yes. The same happened to me, and after a month, I am around 10 seconds faster than I was before learned F2L. Practice is the key.

And I'm still waiting for the OH right hand Z-perm.

 

[JohnLaurain]

Thomas, can you do table abuse for the m slices on the OH z-perm?

 

[PandaCuber]

Thomas, can you do table abuse for the m slices?

Thats what I use for Roux.
