Please switch to Yau

 

[AhsanDaCuber125]

Please switch to Yau

Yeah, listen to Mr.#YauGuy. His choice is the best option.

 

[Cubist-Guitar]

Please switch to Yau

I will not listen to @Isaiah Scott, as I don’t care all that much for Yau. However, I will switch to Yau on 4x4, if that makes you happy!

 

[Isaiah Scott]

I will not listen to @Isaiah Scott, as I don’t care all that much for Yau. However, I will switch to Yau on 4x4, if that makes you happy!

I respect your decision of switching to Yau on 4, but even if you don’t switch to it on 6x6 and 7x7, switching to it on 5x5 makes it so much more fun and enjoyable

 

[Cubist-Guitar]

I respect your decision of switching to Yau on 4, but even if you don’t switch to it on 6x6 and 7x7, switching to it on 5x5 makes it so much more fun and enjoyable

Thanks, I respect your respect (I have used Yau since I was around sub 2, and can’t remember using Redux for 4x4, because that makes no sense)

 

[Sombi McJunior]

Wow, the no rotations throughout the solve and PLL avoidance was very impressive! Congrats!

Sub 9 ao5 on 3x3, which means I’m grinding 3x3, I guess

I’ve also decided that I want to be an all rounder instead of maining 2x2, which is a sorrow, but it is one I am willing to do to get that Scapel luck and fortune with cubing

To be honest I haven’t been grinding squan lol. I’ve started the clock grind with my Shengshou.

 

[Cubist-Guitar]

My order that only gets one cube, but improves most of my others

The 5x5 was to get a 5x5 that was better and different than the MGC, the Angstrom lubes were lubes to improve all of my puzzles, the Squan Maglev kit is my way of making the MGC better than the new GAN (which unfortunately sounds like trash out of the box), and the Pyraminx Tip kit is to improve the trash tips

Yay! Sub 5.5 ao5 on Clock!
