Wow I'm pretty sure that's faster than my PB

I have some catching up to do too. But i don't do 5x5 so I probably won't catch up.

To me it isn’t even a nice scram at all, but I somehow managed to memorise everything correctly and got my first 3bld success

Scram:
B L' D' R B' R' F2 L2 D R' F' L2 U' L2 D' L2 F2 D2 R2 F' U2

Is this a nice scram for 3bld?

Ofc
It starts with bld

Normally, when I do bld scrambles there are normally some wide moves at the end so you don’t always have the cube in white top green front.

Actually I wanna learn M2 for 3bld as well, coz a frd who has 3bld PR avg told me to start from M2 right away. However, as I watch some 3bld tutorials, seems like I have to know Old Pochmann before learning M2. And as I learn Old Pochmann, I tried to do some 3bld solves right away before even learning M2 and already got a successful attempt. However, I believe I will have to learn M2 if I wanna get fast enough at 3bld to hv a 3bld PR single.

Ok well GL

M2 is pretty easy. Just use your middle and index finger to flick as if you were doing a U2 flick but on different fingers.

So you do M2 instead of Old Pochmann for 3bld? (M2 is an intermediate 3bld method)

R' M Rw is better for bld because you don't have to leave home grip.

I think you mean R' M' Rw. For the M2 method thats good but there are cases where I think Rw2 R2 works better

Sounds like Roux…
Btw should I learn Roux for OH?
Seems like the move count of Roux is noticeably lower than CFOP, and as the TPS for OH isn’t that fast anyway at least for me barely sub 30 avg, so move count really matters.

if you can do M moves with one hand, go for it.
you have to use the table
I never made it work
