Day 1 of trying to be the best cuber in the World

[LukeKing67]

Hello, yeah by the title of this thread you might think I am joking or this is cheesy but YES, I will be trying to be atleast top 3 in the world. Because:
1. I'm dedicated
2. I have already been cubing for 3 to 4 years
3. I'm still young (12)
4. I'm already decent I would say

So to start I just learned the Yau method with 323 on the 4x4 and want to see how well I'm doing or if I am doing something wrong. Please give me helpful advise.

And I will be posting about once a day or every couple days giving you guys updates.

Eh, probably not necessary. TBH I already think there are too many negative reaction emotes, never liked the "rolling eyes", "meh", or "confused" ones for this forum (and I definitely think a simple heart should be added).

Regarding the thread itself - this does belong in Cubing Progression (I'll probably move it there once I figure out how to move threads), but otherwise I see no issue with it. Setting lofty goals isn't necessarily a bad thing, so long as they aren't the end-all-be-all, like "I won't be happy unless I'm able to do this". When I was Luke's age, my goal was to eventually win the 3x3 single WR, and that goal motivated me to improve myself. And I had fun trying! Good luck, Luke

Thanks, yeah I honestly don't think it's that realistic either but really I'm just motivating myself because even if I dont get number 1 in the world, I just honestly want to be better than I am now. Like maybe an average of 10 seconds.

What do you average now?

 

[LukeKing67]

What do you average now?

On 3x3 about 20 or 19 seconds I would say but on 4x4 for my first method the reduction method about 1:15 but for the method I just learned the Yau method about 3 minutes since I just learned it yesterday.

I updated it

I'm not really a 4x4 (sigh here's the truth I haven't even solved a 4x4 but know how to solve it thoeractically)guy but I think for someone who knows 4x4 well to give better advice i think you need to record something like an ao5

I dont understand what you just said

Well he meant that you would get really good and get a wr and this thread will get aged like wine(simply means it ages good, like how wine does)

What's your current hardware? I don't think the RS4M is a good 4x4 to be crazy fast with, but it's not a bad starting point
I'd recommend the PiCube Aosu v4 or the Gan 460 v2

I'm saying I'm marking my name in history because I believe you'll succeed

This is a MoYu MeiLong 4x4.

You definitely need to learn the color scheme, as you built centers in the wrong order. Your lookahead during edge pairing was really bad, so you need to work on edge pairing, too.
