Yea for 5-7 wr they used redux
Just for the record Kevin, Feliks, and Max use redux on 5-7 but Ciarán uses Yau. I think that redux is the better method for 5x5+ because the centers are able to be completed much faster and the lookahead problem is not to bad for me.
I started 5x5 5 months ago, and I've stopped practicing it, but now I want to get back into it. I use the beginner's method, but I want to expand. Should I learn Yau5 or Redux? I have asked this to people many times, and I still cannot get a solid answer. Thanks!
There are 3 parts to a big cube solve, Centers, Edges, and 3x3. During centers I think its honestly best to not think and just do. During CaH III Ciaran Behan and Kevin Hays were talking about doing centers and they just said that you should not think too hard about it and just keep going because there is no time to think and only time to do. Edges are probably the step that can make or break your solves. You should have good teqniques like Freeslice and always make sure to replace solved edges with pieces that you want to use for your next pair. The biggest mistake I see people making is just throwing any unsolved edge in then looking around the cube for 15 seconds to find their next edge. Lookahead is very important during edges so you can maintain your turn speed and keep your flow going. Finally there is 3x3 stage. Hardware on 5-7 is not as good as 3x3 so instead of trying to spam your turns the way you would on 3x3 relax your turning and focus less on tps and more on efficiency. Unless you are extremely comfortable with your current main your turning during 3x3 stage won't be very good, but if you make sure your efficiency is great than your times will drop.
Redux is used by almost all of the top 5x5 solvers except for Ciaran. I think that redux is slightly better for 5x5 but I would try using both methods to see what you like more. Also if you are concerned about it the current 5-7 WRs are all redux.I started 5x5 5 months ago, and I've stopped practicing it, but now I want to get back into it.

I'm not quite that fast, but I took a look at my friend's sub 2 6x6 solves and sub 3 7x7 solves and here is my estimation of what the splits should be.
I already use Yau for 4x4, forgot to mention thatI started 5x5 5 months ago, and I've stopped practicing it, but now I want to get back into it. I use the beginner's method, but I want to expand.

I still think that overall redux is the best method because of raw turn speed and no hinderance during centers
I generally keep my cubes fairly loose and I've only gotten corner twists on the Valk 5 maybe thrice (?) out of a few hundred solves. It happens, but isn't common enough for me to care. (Also, if you're getting corner twists during scrambles, you're doing it wrong.)
