If you want to put time into getting good at M slice, which not everybody can master then 100% Roux. If you don't think you're capable of doing all the slice turns or you aren't a fan of table abuse go with ZZ. If you want something unique and fun go with YruRU, it's at least as good as ZZ and it's arguably a competitor with Roux.

I don't see any advantage of using Petrus or Nautilus for OH so probably don't do those unless you want to explore APB and some EO Nautilus variant.

Hey, I avg about 13 and sub-24 on OH. My current goal is to now avg sub 11 on 3x3 and sub 18 on OH.
For OH I would say that simply practice more. I went from ~1 min to sub-30 by simply practising a lot and not learning anything new. After that I learnt some OH PLL for the cases where I usually had to 2 look. I still use 2 look OLL but I will try to learn OH OLLs too.

So I'm board so I thought i would update this with some goals for 2022 and beyond. Also I will try to keep this updated regularly. But I probably will fail at that.

First I finally got some new events them being square one and 5x5.

My goals are to.

  • Get to be confidently sub 15 or even better.
  • Get sub 20 on square 1 this is one of my favorite events now.
  • Sub 1 minute on 4x4
  • Become sub 30 OH
  • Maybe get sub 2 minute on 5x5
  • Try new events.
  • And lastly maybe learn bld

ore will break up with me if I don't tell you that you should check out the Lin method for square-1. Top Lin users are Vicenzo Guerino Cecchini, Alessandro Ricci, and Helmer Ewert - all of whom have either had a world record or are currently top 10 in the world for average.
It's much more intuitive and requires less algorithms than Vandenburg.

E: This is the best tutorial if you want to learn how to do blind

www.cubeskills.com and Tuesday Tips by Kevin Hays are the best place to learn how to get fast on 5x5.
And 6x6/7x7.

If you need a tutorial for cubeshape, derpy has a beginner tutorial, and cubemaster has fantastic videos on the topic as well.
