Deeper F2L

[jskyler91]

Glad to see this thread turning into something usefull!

I never used my thumb for F', index finger came natural to me.

And recently I have switched to a "backhand index" for J- (always) and Y-perm (sometimes).
After an R U R' it comes quite naturally to reach down with my right index finger and flick up the F face and continue into R U ... in one fuid motion.

Your right, that is very fluid and it doesn't make your grip slip as often.

By the way, Cubenovice, just added this:

Regarding algorithm attribution

Whenever possible and appropriate, I've attributed the algorithm, with links. This does not necessarily mean inventor, but often simply the earliest source I know or could find (hence "from" rather than "by"). Some algorithms were certainly already known but were popularized by the indicated source, perhaps with a new fingering.

Algorithms with no source are either well known, "folklore," obvious, mirrors/inverses of attributed algorithms, or my own concoction.

I take attribution pretty seriously. Much more than most other algorithm databases.

I only skimread but I really don't understand the point of this thread... There are thousands of f2l resources out there and this is just unhelpful really.

TOTAL AGREE

Good guide but the y2 part is pretty much obvious
