    Are Computer Generated Roux First Block Solutions Learnable?

    Hello. CFOP solver trying to get into APB here. In case you're not familiar with APB, the first step of it is exactly the same as in Roux where you build a 1x2x3 on Ld. This is the first time I've tried a method based on block-building, and it felt very different from the cross in CFOP. I have...

    The best 3x3 method that you probably don’t use

    For the entirety of speedcubing’s existence, every method out of the dozens of them always have atleast one flaw. CFOP has high TPS potential, but a higher movecount. Roux has a lower TPS potential, but a lower movecount. And ZZ… it’s kinda like CFOP but with better(?) ergonomics. These methods...

    Easing back into using CFOP | APB: polishing off LXS

    Hey, all! I've recently been getting back into 3x3, and I thought i should start a thread like this to keep my motivation going. I'll be splitting this up into 4 chunks, one for CFOP, another for physical 2^4, a third one for learning APB, and the last one for writing down my progress with...

    Caleb Valenzuela’s Optimized Block (CVOB): a brand new 4x4 method

    Hi, I’m Caleb (obviously), and this is my “official thread” for my own curated 4x4 method also known as Caleb Valenzuela’s Optimized Block (CVOB for short). It is heavily inspired by APB and OBLBL. Abbreviations that I use in the explanation: Overview The method is divided into 5 distinct...

    phalentin's APB progress thread

    Hello! I'm starting this thread mainly for self-motivation and to track my progress. Feel free to give advice (although there are not too many other APB users out there lol) Like I said in the title, I use the APB method. I know all of the alg sets (not EOPair, but that's not part of the...

    New 4x4x4~NxNxN Method: NJPB Method

    Hi, I'm Jack Triton (former Bicube single ao5 UWR, current ao12 UWR holder). Today, I'm going to present my newest method called NJPB Method (NxNxN Jack('s) Pair & Block). This method is mixture of Yau and APB, but it's much faster than it sounds. Pros compared with Yau are: Less dynamic...

    Delta Chat Cubing Group

    There is an app, Delta Chat, that is a modern chat app with a twist — it uses the email protocol so all you need is an email (preferably gmail to set up an app password, google “gmail app password for more details). I have a YouTube channel and I would like to record some head to head battles...

    Current Method Meta

    Interesting in the current method landscape. 2020-2021 there was a huge rise in method diversity and I'm curious where that currently stands. What methods have fallen off, what methods have the most amount of users, what methods are considered to have the greatest potential, and major barriers...

    Mehta OS breaker? Petrus OS

    Note : No offense to Mehta Method with a title Recently I have been experimenting with Petrus OS I am trying to find a good way to do Petrus OS. Rather than just looking for a best case from a specific set during a solve this is because APB is the best version of petrus (for now) even if you get...

    4PB - An efficient, ergonomic, algorithmic, APB based 4x4 method

    Here I am presenting a new method for solving a 4x4.. 4PB (4x4 APB) can be considered as application of ABP on 4x4. The primary steps are : Step 1 : Solve 2 opposite centres (if you are not colour neutral these have to be white and yellow) Step 2 : Pair up and attach 2 cross coloured edges to...
