5x5x5 begginer method

[CubeK]

i bought a 5x5x5 cube.
i am a begginer of 5x5x5 cube.
what method should I use?
and what method do you use now?




on 3x3x3 , i use cfop,
on 4x4x4 ,use yau method

You can try Yau for 5x5 as well.

But Redux is an easier option to understand and get started with.

Good luck!

Yay is better, so learn that one

I would advise learning redux to start off, as it is simpler, but if you use yau for 4x4, the principle is the same with 5x5.
I personally use Yau in all big cubes

At the risk of derailing this thread, I've wondered for a while:

The wiki entry for Yau5 describes a different solving order to Yau4 - specifically, it calls for solving two F2L pairs before pairing the last four edges - but I haven't seen any recent examples of top Yau solvers actually doing this. Did things move on at some point, or was this never fully mainstream?

i start to use yau and yau5 .
i use two method, and decide to use which method.

It's better to pair whichever edges are good than going out of your way to pair specific edges. If you happen to make at least one F2L edge, you have the option to solve one or two pairs before L4E. But even if you solve zero F2L pairs, you can do Yau5-style L4E but putting two paired edges into the back slots. Some top solvers prefer to do just one, leaving three of the last four edges in the E slice
