5BLD's And PandaCuber's Roux Tutorial

[5BLD]

I learnt DUSAsHTPi

 

[PandaCuber]

I prefer Waffles site when it comes to learning CMLL. Its so easy. Thats how i recognize.
I learned them H G B C E F D
That way you go from easy short algs, to longer ones.

 

[mullemeckmannen]

hey, 5bld can you redo first block tut on youtube?

 

[5BLD]

Yeah, will get round to it soon.

 

[Georgeanderre]

I learnt DUSAsHTPi

I'm assuming your D is what I call L... through a process of elimination :confused:

Anywho I've learnt all the H cases, all but 1 U case, 3 T's, 2 pi's and 2 L's... give me 2 weeks and I should have the lot, or be working on As and S recognition :tu

-------------------------

In other news, this happened this morning - 17.12, (16.39), 20.03, (22.15), 19.83 ... 18.99 Ao5

Slightly shocked at the time because I've never been sub 20 and I haven't even picked up a 3x3 in weeks, it must be all the 4x4 I've been doing.

But after seeing this, I think I finally have a reason to learn CLL

 

[Ickathu]

Figure I can post this here too.

I have LSE ao12. For some reason I had a "Low Light Boost" option checked on my recording software that made all the colors duller shades than they are for real.

Special thanks to Panda Cuber.

Also, I hope you can see what I'm doing. I think my cube goes a little off screen but not much.

 

[Georgeanderre]

That cube looks real tight... not good for Moo spamming

Ideally both index fingers need to be free, M2 with right ring then left ring or left ring and middle... this is what I do and I'm rarely sup 4 for the smexi MU stage

I'll switch to my Lingyun. I prefer the feel of the guhong, but it is a little slow I guess. Not really slow, but it takes significant (relative term) force to do Ms. The Right Left M2s are weird I'll keep trying though. Do you grip then with your Middle and Thumb on BL/BR and FL/FR?

I grip with thumbs on FR and FL edges respectively and with middle fingers on BR and BL edges respectively.

I used to grip like you are in the video but this meant I couldn't do U moves easily... this made me slower, since changing my grip I have dropped at least 5 seconds on my times... although this may also be down to me getting very near to sub 1 on 4x4 (I use K4 so have a similar grip for the ELL)

This frees up my index fingers for U and U' flicks and U2 flicks if they are needed.. pulling from behind and then pushing.
It also frees up both ring fingers for M', M and M2 if I use both fingers..
It also frees up both pinkys but I don't use them

But to execute 'parity' I do drop my middle finger from the right in favour of my index just to make it easier to execute..

 

[PandaCuber]

The way you hold your cube doesnt really matter. Its how you cube.

Mr. Ickathu, you need to slow down. Speed = Pauses = Slower times; Slow = No Pauses = Faster times.

Finished learning my 2nd CLL set this afternoon... going to start work on the Sune set and just mirror them onto the As set tonight and tomorrow.

Hoping to have learnt full CLL by the end of June, then I can start on faster recognition and hopefully get consistent sub 20 Roux and a lot more Sub 60 K4 solves

Also working on L6E transition... I'm sub 5 already but I want sub 4 Mr Algorithm can't be bad for the longer EO cases

 

[5BLD]

For longer ones try to influence LR edges at least if you don't already.

Tomorrow I will try to make some walkthrough solves... if they are wanted. I havent much time tho.

 

[PandaCuber]

Imma attempt to go CN again. Hows the TUT going?

 

[Qert31]

....
I have everything else except for LSE
I tried watching 5BLD's videos... but they go too fast ._.
When I tried slowing it down too... well that made it worse because everything sounded disorted.
Brusinque's videos aren't complete due to a screw-up of youtube.
GG.

Race to Full CLL?

I plan on Learning the rest of OLLCP (75 cases left) And would love to race!

 

[Ickathu]

What's the difference between COLL and OLLCP? Is OLLCP a subset of COLL?

 

[JonnyWhoopes]

What's the difference between COLL and OLLCP? Is OLLCP a subset of COLL?

COLL is a subset of OLLCP where all the edges are oriented. Or, in simpler terms, OLLCP orients all pieces while also solving the corners.

Nah, I learn at my own rate.

But thanks for the offer anyway

Would you like me to make another?

 

[Georgeanderre]

I would like another one as well, please ... not because I need a tutorial, just to see someone else's perspective on it :tu

-------------------------

CN Roux is fairly easy, for blocks anyway, though I have found adapting to CN L6E is nearly impossible for me because of my colour-blindness
