..My times are kinda the same using Yau instead of regular reduction(Except for the cruddy 3min and the even cruddier 4min).. Maybe I need to let the method sink in more.. :P

Welcome to the race!

My times actually increased when first learning Yau. I relate it to when I first started learning F2L, you've gotta get your head around it first. Judging by your 3x3 times (similar, or better, than mine) I'm sure you could get to where I'm at with 4x4 pretty quickly, and I've still got a lot to improve upon. Try putting the timer away and just practice your Yau cross and centers for a while. Also, consider Hoya method for cross and centers, it's similar to Yau and you might like it better. Once you're comfortable with cross and centers definitely look into 3-2-3 edge pairing (if you haven't already). Learning and practicing 3-2-3 edge pairing has made a huge difference in my times recently. Here's a pretty good video by cyoubx on it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N69GNk0ToHw.

One more thing. Make sure you have decent parity algs and practice the heck out of them. Otherwise, parity can destroy your times.

Keep at it and you'll be sub 2 and beyond in no time ;)

I just started doing 4x4 about 3 weeks ago and I use reduction method. I plan to switch to Yau eventually... but not right now.

O_O Welp. Sorry to hear that..

Round 41
Race to Sub-2:00
1: 2:47.01

3: 2:47.31
4: 2:37.15
5: (3:17.59)

Avg: 2:43.82

I felt a bit nervous about this average.. My Shengshou was popping over and over so I decided to tighten the tensions before the average. WORST. IDEA. EVER. My arms were dead near the end and I only did 5 solves. @_@ Not sure if I should attempt to konsta mod it while I wait for my Yuxin to arrive.. .-.

Oh hey, I improved by 7 seconds. oUo
