Before consuming this, the reader is assumed to already be at least somewhat familiar with the system outlined in this video (or this thread if you prefer written guides). The method covered here is very similar, but the major improvement comes from no longer needing to do a BLD style parity...

(Alternative title; EO better smh) I've previously covered this topic in my original thread on DR back in 2022. Since then, I've gotten a lot better at the event, and by extension have a better understanding of EO as a whole. Combined with one interesting discovery relating to "RLFB hackery"...

When doing FMC with DR, it's not uncommon to get a scramble with lot's of EO in 4-5 but only one EO in 3, or a scramble with lots of EO in 3-4 with a 2 move EO available. For scrambles like these, you shouldn't limit yourself to just checking one move continuations from the shortest EO even...

It's been a while since I've felt compelled to post an FMC related guide. Recently, a decent amount of progress has been made in the EO>DR department, so I feel like documenting the more current take on EO>DR stuff is worthy of my time Intro Traditionally, when trying to go from EO to DR...

With all of my previous threads on DR and HTR, I've recommended that people learn the corner cases (from unsolved to solved) and to use those as a way of structuring your general HTR solutions. While this is personally how I learned HTR, I don't believe this method is the best way to go as a...

Previous guide which you should read if you haven't had a chance to yet as I won't be restating all of it here. Since posting my last guide, I've learned quite a bit more about HTR and have a more complete understanding of HTR than I did previously. ITT I'll be covering some key information on...

Recently, I posted a thread on what to do once you've found a DR, which you can find here. Before I start talking about actually finding DR's in the first place, I want to quickly gloss over the "good/bad corners" stuff since it's important for deciding whether or not you should even try to find...

NOTE: This is not a guide for finding DR's. If you don't know how to find a DR in FMC/aren't a DR solver, this guide will be of no use to you. If you want to learn DR, I recommend this guide & to learn how to find DR's using EO, followed by some set up moves to 4C4E, 4C2E, or 3C2E, followed by...

Recently I've been thinking about alternative approaches to last two pairs when you have adjacent slots already solved I've already developed things like FRUF stuff, and PSF2L is also a very solid approach, but what if you reach last two pairs and find that one of your corners is solved but the...

(mostly useful for ZZ since it's more common) Why F2L 15? Because when EO is done this F2L pair needs 11 moves using intuitive RUgen (the only other case that's like this other than CLS cases is F2L 23, which I might document at a later date... if I do it'll be in this thread so I avoid...

Generally speaking, people who use full ZBLL agree that for ZBLL cases, having 2 oriented corners is the best while having 0 oriented corners is the worst (this is accounting for recognition, quality of algs, and how nice OLL>PLL is in comparison) What I've gone ahead and done is taken every...

Recently I posted an idea for a CFOP based Scramble Dependent Method. I'd recommend at least reading the 2nd point on "the aspect of method neutrality that gets overlooked" since that section will be relevant here Honestly, I already think the initial idea I came up with is mostly a bad idea...

~ (I really wanted to call this method JDSM but I can't make the acronym make sense lmao. I also think this method needs a name with 2-3 syllables maximum but I don't want to just call this "McNeill" so consider JDSM a placeholder for now. If I don't see any possible names I like after a week...

A few disclaimers before I begin: I want to make it clear that with this potential OLS tool I have in mind, the UI/UX would be nearly identical to what Kirjava developed for doing 1LLL with 2 algs that are considered nice to execute, but also with some additional features and probably some...

Over the past year or so I've posted a lot of content to my YT channel & Newsletter about ways to improve many of the steps of CFOP. However, I've also spent at least a small % of my time thinking about Roux (no plans to switch or even try to get fast as a side project) after seeing certain...

Pseudoslotting has been getting talked about more and more as of late, and is basically the hot new technique in town This average isn't anything special (pretty good by my standards, but I've also done better in the past), but the fact that I used PSF2L on so many solves in this average...

ROLL/JOLL learning tool by Tao Yu How to use it About a week or so ago I sent a wall of text similar to this to my email list... (link in signature to sign up)... However after some consideration I've decided that this info needs to be posted publicly since ROLL/JOLL resources are so scarce...

(For those who don't know ROLL or JOLL, I have written explanations *here* and *here*, as well as videos on my channel explaining the method) I just posted this video on my YouTube channel which explains why exactly ROLL and JOLL resources currently suck Aside from a lack of widespread...
