I just got the new Swift Block 355S 3x3 Magnetic, pretty sure it released today

There are MUCH better cubes that the swift block u should have read the reviews. If u need a budget cube u can get the Rs3ms if u want a more of a premium cube u could get thw wrm v9 if u want a affordable cube u could have gotten the super rs3m ball core. But the swift block is a 13 dollar cube tha5 is made by gan and it is overpriced.

I think he got it as more out of curiosity than a new main. He got the Maglev Super RS3M, remember? That's a lot better than the Swiftblock.
Speaking of which @CatSharked I sent you friend request. Maybe we can start with your lesson tomorrow?

How do u make a friend request?

I main the RS3M, I got the Swift Block because it looked cool

Ok so I am gonna be returning to the forum now, I know that sub-25 on 3x3 was my goal for a while, but I think I am sub-25 now, so yeah... goal completed

also i forgot how to solve a 2x2, i know it sounds stupid but i am actually worried

 

[CatSharked]

I just got a 12.349 PB solve in 63 moves
I got a 4 move cross, some easy pairs, 1-look OLL, and a PLL skip

Scram?

Scram?

I don't even know, it was on my GoCube app but the scramble was like 15-20 moves

I am going to a competition in about a week, Salem Spooktacular 2023: https://www.worldcubeassociation.org/competitions/SalemSpooktacular2023

I am registered for 3x3, Skewb, and Pyraminx. Here are my goals:

3x3: Sub-22 average
Skewb: Hoping for PR single, but I am fine with a 10 second average
Pyraminx: At least 1 sub-11 solve

 

[CatSharked]

I just learned how to solve a megaminx, my first solve was 4:28.59

 

[CatSharked]

3:59.62 Megaminx PR single!

My goal for Megaminx is to get sub-3, does anyone have any tips for how to get faster?

I just learned how to solve a megaminx, my first solve was 4:28.59

If only it had been 8 seconds faster…

 

[CatSharked]

6 days until Salem Spooktacular 2023! Progress update:

3x3: My goal is to beat my PR average of 24.07. I am currently averaging 22.99 and I got a PB ao5 of 20.05 so that should be easy.

Megaminx: The cutoff time is 3 minutes, I currently average 3:58 and my PB single is 2:53 so I am going to try to get more sub-3 solves

Pyraminx: I am not practicing it because I have only gotten slower and I don't want to see how much slower I've gotten. I am just hoping I can get sub-11 in the competition but I probably won't

Skewb: I don't know how to scramble a skewb, I need to learn the notation. I think if I practiced it I could make skewb finals.

 

[CatSharked]

Megaminx: The cutoff time is 3 minutes, I currently average 3:58 and my PB single is 2:53 so I am going to try to get more sub-3 solves

Megaminx Update: Got my average down to 3:47 and got another sub-3 single

Spoiler: PB average + PB single
