    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    Hey guys, I wanna generate some algs for a new method idea I have (related to WaterRoux), however I am currently on vacation and do not have access to Cube Explorer (it's complicated, but basically my laptop is a work laptop which cannot download certain software). Does anyone know of any other...

    The WaterRoux 3x3 method thread

    @efattah Oh right, I completely forgot about this! This right here has huge potential imo. I'll practice with this for a while and give my thoughts from a speedsolving perspective. @Neuro I'm on vacation atm so PMing would most likely not work out until my return... I might just post some...

    The WaterRoux 3x3 method thread

    Of course, sorry I didn't phrase that properly, what I was trying to get at is that L7E will never work out in my eyes, not WaterRoux as a whole. This is just my opinion of course, but the way I see it, it simply wouldn't be beneficial under any circumstances. Either way, I apologize for my...

    The WaterRoux 3x3 method thread

    I think the big problem with WaterRoux is L7E. It just seems forced. The setup required, the enormous amount of algs and the mediocre recog makes regular L6E a lot more appealing, and the move count is essentially the same. More algs does not mean faster times, especially in a case like this...

    ECE - New 3x3 Solving Method

    Okay perfect so in a week or so I should have a tutorial up on my channel, which is simply my name (Julien Adam). Just look it up on YouTube, some cubing videos might come up. Otherwise I'll post a link here as soon as it's uploaded. Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk

    ECE - New 3x3 Solving Method

    Of course, that's absolutely no problem, however if I do make a tutorial it most likely won't be for ECE as I don't believe it is the most advanced version of this method. I will most likely make a tutorial for SSC, with the consent of shadowslice of course. Should be coming in the near future...

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    Are these EG-1 algs available? I'd definitely consider learning them. I'm mainly using Roux as my main method atm (my sig has been irrelevant for months, I should really change it) and I'm really starting to get the hang of Waterman L6E and LMCF so I could potentially use this as my main method...

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    An improvement on Waterman: 1. Solve a layer minus one cross edge (15 moves) 2. Solve the remaining corners with CxLL (9 moves) 3. Rotate the cube so D becomes L, with the missing edge at UL 4. Solve two redges with an E2L algorithm (6 moves) 5. WaterRoux-style L7E (15 moves) I've found...

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    Absolutely not original enough for its own thread. I'm not saying it isn't good, but it just resembles too many other methods far too much for it to require its own thread. If you find something more unique to add on, it could qualify for its own thread.

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    That's why I find leaving the front CE out is much better, since one can then easily just pair it up with M' U/U2/U' M. However HK isn't really that viable in my opinion since orientation of specific pieces in often times even more difficult or confusing than orienting them all, and just using...

    The WaterRoux 3x3 method thread

    Hey guys would L8E be in any way possible/useful? Just thinking in terms of methods like SSC-M or ECE which can reach L8E in less than 20 moves. Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk

    This seems amazing! Didn't think L7E was actually an achievable concept... I wonder if we could push it any further? Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk

    The New Method / Substep / Concept Idea Thread

    Hey guys, just found some algs I started generating last year for ECE. It's basically just CO of both layers whilst preserving the E-slice. Algs are actually really nice, anyone know how we could make use of this...

    What's the average movecount for ZZLL?

    Because it doesn't. He's optimizing his solves, as he said, and when optimizing CT solves the move count is about the same if not lower. Additionally it seems like CT has better recog.
