How do I become sub 12?!?!?

[Glitched Cubing]

Hey guys!
I avg around 11-14 seconds, and I can't seem to get faster.
Cross: 2-4 secs
F2L Pairs: 5-6 secs
OLL and PLL: 3-4 secs
For context, I've been sub 15 for around 1-2 months and have been cubing for a year and 4 days.

fix your cross. it shouldn't be taking that long

How do I do that tho?!?!?

Make sure you are finding good, law movecount solutions, learn how to use rotations+Wide moves to improve ergonomics, and plan the full solution

If you want you can learn pseudof2l

I forgot to mention I use wide moves in cross, do pseudo, and know around 40 zblls

If you post a video of an ao5 in this thread, I'll critique it.

Try to usually average 5-7 moves on cross

This might not be helpful but in my opinion you can get sub 12 by learning full oll and pll and getting them all to under 2 seconds and also getting full f2l and learning to do cross in 7 moves or less. Predict the whole cross in inspection then do it then do f2l then fast pll and oll also getting a decent cube is good.

The real way to do it is to do 12000 solves

 

[DuckubingCuber347]

Nice F-perm alg, you should try the inverse too. Make sure to drill your algorithms so you can minimize lockups during solves.

I would actually say that you need to improve lookahead and deduction skills for F2l. There were a few pauses but you probably wasted 2 seconds because of those pauses.

 

[abunickabhi]

Just grind yo.

 

[baseballjello67]

Maybe learn something called lookahead.

In all seriousness, lookahead is key. But your crosses are really weird, kind of like you are misinspecting them. Fix that, maybe better F2L solutions, but mainly lookahead and cross. And grind, of course.

the 12000 solves thing got me lol (also ik full oll and pll all of them are sub 2 [I think] and ik full f2l, so now just lookahead and grind forever.........
