there is no alpha VI its a haiyan cube

 

[noobyninja]

I personally like Alpha V Cube

 

[Rayne]

I've used the F-II a bit since I started this thread, and it's a good cube, my second favorite, but my averages of 12 are around:

F-II = 29-31
A-V = 25-27

I didn't exagerate, these are true.

 

[~Phoenix Death~]

I hate my F2

Cheer up.

Type a v is definitely better...you just have to mod it properly.it might be not good for begginers but is of course better than the F-II,some people may think F II is better but i would say aV is the BEST 3x3 out there

 

[lorki3]

there is no best cube they are both really good

 

[Hadley4000]

So then can we agree that a haiyan corner modded A-V > an FII?

No, we can't agree, because that's not true. The other way around isn't true, either. Neither is the better cube.

People need to shut up about the whole "Best cube" thing. Faz uses AV, he is good with it. Rowe/Harris/Andrew use FII, they are good with it. Doesn't mean x cube is better than y cube.

Yes.

 

[canadiancuber]

why'd you bump this thread?

 

[3x3 eyes]

IMHO, the FII is superior. Assembled and lubed right outta the box. No modding required, cuts corners like butter. I really don't want to buy a cube that i have to work on to make better. (Why most serious cubers don't buy store-bought cubes and break them in to be 'godly' fast).

 

[koreancuber]

in MY opinion, this thread should be closed, because these debates (and all the other VS threads.. I know I've made some) will never end, nor can it.

 

[FatBoyXPC]

But but but Erik has the WR for 3x3 and uses AV (now) and Faz has the AV and broke his WR with it so it MUST BE BETTER!

Heh.

I too am quite tired of these threads.

Yes.

Did you even read the post above yours?

 

[guinepigs rock]

all i have is the Alpha V never tried f-ii

 

[Whyusosrs?]

Yes.

Did you even read the post above yours?

Noone reads before they post anymore.

 

[akiramejin]

I have both. I like them both. They're both good cubes. But this thread is hella stupid. Why would you try to prove, an opinion? Just enjoy your cubes and do what you want. Use what you want. Just stop arguing. You aren't gonna get anywhere.

Yes.

Yes. I presented my opinion.

 

[WeIsPrius]

I am new to this forum, but not to cubing.

I just want to say that I ordered an A V from eBay, never having heard about the F II. Then 5 minutes later I read about the F II. So I canceled my A V order and ordered an F II.

So, F II. Hopefully I get it in a couple weeks. Can't wait.
