Around 10-11 seconds.

No, I don't think it would be that fast, you would have to have near perfect lookahead and no pauses/AUFs during LL. I'm talking about the average person that uses lookahead.

if you are saying about 4.5 tps for f2l which usually takes around 35 moves and 7.5 for LL which takes 20:
35/4.5+20/7.5=7.77+2.66=10.44

35/4.5+20/7.5=7.77+2.66=10.44

That averages 5.27 TPS, which is usually around what I get... but I average 14, and my F2L is around 35 moves too. Are you sure 20 moves is accurate for LL? I know I used 2-look OLL half the time (I know ~30 OLLs), but I can't imagine it would make that much of a difference. 20 moves looks like too few.

 

[goodatthis]

I think I should probably clarify something, I meant 4-5 TPS per f2l case, and 7-8 TPS per alg. So not 4.5 TPS for F2L as a whole, and not 7.5 TPS for LL as a whole.

You shouldn't be pausing during F2L pairs...

Yeah, but you can't turn as fast during F2L as you can during LL, because it would be harder to look ahead.

I know, which is why he suggested 4-5 TPS during F2L and 7-8 during LL.

If someone hypothetically (i think kirjava does) used and knew full ollcp and used it for cfop (cross, f2l, ollcp, epll) what is it called? cfoe? ;p

Yes, but a very small pause is inevitable most of the time, and that reduces TPS by a decent amount.

Hmm, interesting. I would be inclined to say it would still be called CFOP, because you're still orienting the LL then subsequently permuting it.

cfop with ollcp?

 

[GG]

I think anyone who knows full ollcp can call it whatever they want.. 300algs... That's badass

I can't break sub 20 with CFOP. Should I switch methods?

 

[pewpewrawr]

yes switch to roux

 

[PJKCuber]

yes switch to roux

Ok, I will practice both Roux and CFOP now. Are there any good LSE tutorials.

no need to practice cfop, just roux. deedub's tutorial is pretty good if you're just looking for the basics. after that, just look at people's example sovles.

no don't use tutorials, just ur brain. you'll get it.

 

[GuRoux]

tutorials usually make things easier to understand and learn

What the...

You've been cubing for less than two months. The fact that you aren't sub-20 yet doesn't mean you need to switch methods, it just means you need more time. Go ahead and switch methods if you want to, but do it only because you want to, not for the sake of getting sub-20 faster.

 

[pewpewrawr]

true, but the easiest way isn't always the best way. using ur own logic will give you a better understanding.

Again, I will say switch to another hobby. Cubing isn't for you. If all you want is immediate gratification then other hobbies will be much more rewarding. If you want to work for years on this one and get fast, then stick with it. You can't keep asking for advice on how to get faster. Switching to Roux isn't going to make you faster. Switching away from color neutral isn't going to make you faster. Practicing is going to make you faster, but it takes time.
