OH. PLL skip was a known ZB, so no lucky cases at all. No F2L-slot skip, no OLL skip, not even an x-cross in the entire session The accomplishment is the number of solves, not the average

I know I'm supposed to be working on my timer instead of doing this But hey, I only get this much free time. I think I deserve to spend a bit of it on cubing

PB average of 12 for 2x2:

I'm curious as to at what point most people start to learn a proper 2x2 method (right now I use the equivilent of Fridrich). I usually average in the 9's for a5's. I'm interested in CLL, so I might start learning that.

 

[That70sShowDude]

basically my first day practicing 2x2 (ive solved it many times in the past using fridrich logic, but never really timed myself), learned ortega today ... so basically half fridrich and half ortega in my solves ... eastsheen seems a little too loose, not sure if it should be like this ...

avg 5 - 9.31

i did ~210 solves

next up: maybe guimond
maybe CLL

maybe not ...

When I was averaging ~8 seconds, I started learning Ortega, with which I got sub-6 with no problems. Then, after I realized how difficult it got to get faster, I learned CLL. Now I average 4.5 with CLL. I'm learning EG1 now.

Omg omg omg...

Beated my old lucky (PLL skip) 19.96 with full step 18.89.. Woot.. Second sub-20 ever, lol.

PB average of 12 for 2x2:

Average: 8.49
Standard Deviation: 1.10
Best Time: 6.59
Worst Time: 10.06
Individual Times:
7.06, (10.06), 9.52, 7.42, 9.42, 8.70, 9.86, 9.88, 8.45, 6.98, 7.62, (6.59)

I'm curious as to at what point most people start to learn a proper 2x2 method (right now I use the equivilent of Fridrich). I usually average in the 9's for a5's. I'm interested in CLL, so I might start learning that.

When I was averaging ~8 seconds, I started learning Ortega, with which I got sub-6 with no problems. Then, after I realized how difficult it got to get faster, I learned CLL. Now I average 4.5 with CLL. I'm learning EG1 now.

Do you and others who know CLL use it for every solve, or do some scrambles lend themselves better to Ortega? I guess I'm asking if I should go straight to CLL or learn Ortega first.

Learn Ortega first. It's 2 (well, 3) algorithms for PBL, and you should already know the shorter algorithms for OLL cases on 2x2. If you can turn fast and can lookahead decently then sub 5 average is pretty easily possible.

I still occasionally use Ortega, but very rarely. Usually only when I've incorrectly predicted the EG1 case and I don't know it. Once in a while though, you do get a scramble that is terrible for CLL, and using Ortega or Guimond is more appropriate.

With SAMMICH? or Fridrich?

sammich? LOL
nah just CFOP, but for some scrambles i might just start doing random blockbuilding for the f2l until i start failing...then i revert to traditional f2l?heh.
