[WR] Feliks Zemdegs 7.49 3x3 Average

I don't think just noobs will buy them. If I didn't have one, I would be ordering one right now too. I love me some Weilong.

It's so adjustable.

 

[Spaxxy]

I've been hearing some pretty good things about the Weilong recently. My friend got his first sub 10 with a Weilong, and now Feliks breaks the WR with it. I just might get one. Not sure if I'll switch, though. I really like my Shuang Ren.

My god, that non-lucky 6.18 solve. TF happened to OLL? It just seemed like F2LOLL

 

[god of rubic 2]

single pls

Likely he just knows he knows the T set and he knows that doing FRURUF from that angle would give him one.

Haha nope, I only know a few cases, so doing that in a solve is a bit of a risk.

That's what I figured, but I was waiting to hear it from you. Ballsy. :tu

 

[Dene]

Hi-five!

EDIT: I had to do this. So cute!!!

 

[AvGalen]

At first I was thinking it was going to be a "in bad light solve"
Then I thought it was going to be a "Blackmail cuber pretending to be Feliks"
Then I saw the first solve and instantly knew it was Feliks. Same style as now, but he had many more pauses back then and his regrips were slower

Yeah, that was basically what I was asking glad it paid off though, haha!
EDIT: also idk what COLL alg you use for this case (if any) but the one I use (R' U2 L U2 L' U2 R U2 L U2 L') gave me an EPLL skip

That's so metal.

I'm surprised there are no x-cross F2Ls in the solves. I thought this was one of the advantages of being colour neutral.

Dunno for Feliks, but I usually find it easier to plan cross + 1st pair than an xcross. I'd say that one of the main advantages of being colour neutral is that you get easier crosses which allow for looking ahead further into solves. I find that my lookahead is really bad with a hard cross

Yeah, I asked a question about his F2L (Feliks Crushing F2L) and he said he learned the T Set of ZBLL.

I'm 95% sure he doesn't know the whole T-set, I could be wrong though.

Feliks, upload your 555 single already :<

For all you better cubers out there, what's the advantage of using just the index finger to do all the double flicks?(I have asked before). I'm noticing in the reconstructions(As Executed)of Mats & Feliks that they rarely use Index/Middle to do double flicks. I've tried it myself and so far the two advantages are a better grip on the cube and a smoother solve where I'm almost doing one long alg to solve the cube. But any alg that has a double flick I can do faster with Index/Middle but solves become choppier with a lot of stops and starts. Feliks has done 4's with this, you would think he could be even faster using Index/Middle. Thoughts?

Your right, he said he learned half the T subset.

He just has poor fingertricks

But, seriously speaking, I guess he could become slightly faster, if not a lot faster with doubleflicks. They flow more smoothly in a solve, at least for me.

I don't think he knows that much either lol.

Or it could be that he doesn't want mess with a good thing and at this point it would be too big a change in his turning style?

Yup

Possible, um-hmm
