Pretty certain he uses a mixture of letters and visual.

I'm not sure if anyone superfast uses visual anymore, I remember Rowe did for most things.

 

[lucarubik]

I know, he uses visual for corners, Tomás uses visual/ letters too but he used to do whole visual, his official best 50.xx was made with 100% visual memo

Ville only uses visual for remembering orientation of corners. He explained his memo system to me before but I can't remember it all that well. It's weird anyway. (I'm not saying he uses 3OP either.)

 

[lucarubik]

oppd my fault I was almost sure he memorized edges lika Aron Solves Rubikscube Blindfolded... and corners pure visually like thinking in every commutator

 

[Jaycee]

I am absolutely positive this must be somewhere I could easily find it, but for some reason I can't. >.>

For M2, can somebody list the "alg" they use to shoot to BU, FU, and BD? With a DF buffer.

 

[lucarubik]

at cubefreak.net you can find a link

 

[Jaycee]

Macky confuses me. I am still lost. :/ Is there a good M2 video tutorial that goes in-depth about M-slice edges (not Eric Limeback's)? If not I might just have to find a new edges method xD

I use OP corners. When there's odd parity, exactly what do I do? I know there's this one alg that's U,F,M, but I don't know what it does.

I think the world is in need of a new M2/OP tutorial :/

 

[lucarubik]

you don't need a tutorial you just need your brain, copying the bests you will never be the best

 

[Jaycee]

Except I'm asking for help, not copying. >__>

 

[lucarubik]

but It's okay to say do you guys know any alg to whatever but what image do you guys would use for AB... I would make all the corners and then make something like UB-UL-UB-first edge memoriced
I think is faster than two R perms right?

 

[Jaycee]

I'm sorry, but I couldn't follow any of that post. (Seriously) Can someone please answer with proper grammar?

 

[lucarubik]

LOL I'm sorry... I'll try again. Solve the last corner and then make the cycle DF-UB-UL-UB-first edge memorized

Jaycee: searching "m2 algs" on google brings up this. I use all of these except for BU.

 

[Jaycee]

Julian, thank you so much! Just out of curiosity, what do you use for BU?

I used byu's tutorial on Youtube. I didn't understand it at first, but upon a second viewing, it was quite simple and clear. I was discouraged from learning the algorithms for M slice edges in Limeback's tutorials, though I have heard claims that it might be a faster way of dealing with these edges.

 

[JasonK]

The ones I use:

BU: (U' M' U' M' U' M' U') M (U' M' U' M' U' M' U') M'
FU: F E R U R' E' R U' R' F' M2
BD: M2 F R U R' E R U R' E' F'

Don't be put off by the E's, they're really nice algs.

 

[aronpm]

The ones I use:

BU: (U' M' U' M' U' M' U') M (U' M' U' M' U' M' U') M'
FU: F E R U R' E' R U' R' F' M2
BD: M2 F R U R' E R U R' E' F'

Don't be put off by the E's, they're really nice algs.

Alternatives:
BU: (U R' U' l U' R U) M2 (U' R' U l' U R U)
FU: y' U M' U R2 U' M U R2 U2 y M2 (or D M' U R2 U' M U R2 U' D' M2)
BD: M2 y' U2 R2 U' M' U R2 U' M U' y (or M2 D U R2 U' M' U R2 U' M D')

 

[jorgeskm]

What do you think that is better, M2 with orientations the edges (M) or without orientation?
