Not true. I like all methods I just think CFOP is the fastest.

You have a great way of showing that you like other methods.

Why do you think CFOP is the fastest then?
Owen Morrison

Okay, CFOP might not be the fastest method, but there is no evidence to suggest that it isn't. CFOP has by far the best results in competitions, I know that Roux doesn't have as many users so there is a very slight chance that it is indeed faster than CFOP.

I like CFOP the best because it is much better for cubes like 4x4 5x5 6x6 7x7, and even if other methods were a little faster I would still use CFOP because it is better for big cubes.

I don't want to try to convince people who are using a different method to switch to CFOP, but it does upset me when someone says they are going to try to learn CFOP and 3 people immediately say they should check out other methods. Because, most likely the person learning CFOP has thought about which method and decided on that.

Had to split it into three posts because of the character limit.

I think most people saying they are moving on to CFOP from LBL havent tried other methods, and dont know there are other good methods

most people going straight from LBL are, but there are quite a few people around 15-30 seconds that use a hybrid method who most likely have thought about it more. My advice to any new cuber would be to learn CFOP after LBL until they average sub 30, and then try out other methods before making their final decision. If people have already made their decision we shouldn't try to change it.

I think every new cuber should be aware that speedsolving methods other than CFOP exist, so that they dont think that CFOP is the only way to be fast.

But also that other methods are not as good for big cubes.

Idc all that much about big cubes. I use Meyer for 4x4 and redux w CFOP for 5x5. But yes, CFOP is better than Roux for 5x5+

CFOP is the worst method

haha prove it.

ZZ have no cube rotation, lower move count, no F and B move during F2L.
Roux no cube rotation, lower move count and more efficient
