    Why do people consider Petrus bad?

    As the title states, I am curious as to why people claim Petrus is bad. It has relatively good ergonomics, its efficient and has a good last layer than can be 1 looked with relative ease.

    So, I've gotten a little bored of the big four methods, and want to try something new, like L2LK. Unfortunately, I don't know the best approach to learning the algorithms. I know ELL, so that's 27 algs down, but I'm not sure if I should just go in order of learning the algs step by step, and is...

    [Review] FangShi JieYun 3x3x3 cube

    Ok. When I first got this puzzle,I when straight in to first turns. The first turns are very scratchy, but not dry. The cube out of the box was very tight, and was still capable of 45 forward, 3/4 reverse corner-cutting. The only problem I have with this cube, is even on fairly loose tensions...

    [Review] FangCun Freshman 3x3

    This cube measures 57mm across, and only comes with a stickerless option. Corner-cutting is decent, about 40 degrees forward and half a cubie reverse. The turning feel changes once all the stock lube is removed. It goes from a smooth and controllable cube, to a crunchy and faster cube. After...
