just some really bad 3x3 timed solves to get used to the cube.

it happened that I liked my 4x4 that much that I couldn't stop messing around with it. it's marvelous

What 4x4 is that?
Have a pretty budget one from last year, don’t really like 4x4 but then again it’s more likely to be the cube...
Meilong M 4x4x4... It's pretty good.

I can solve it with reduction, didn't time yet, just some chill solves... I forgot the oll parity alg though. pll parity is easy

edge pairing it's pretty fun

I'm open to suggestions.

Looking forward to practice more algs on days to come
After drilling all those algs and felling confident with all of them I'll learn sune/as cmlls for roux, drill L10P and then try to adapt to 2x2 cll. so i'll focus on recognition on all sides
