So I feel like I've hit a plateau. I don't know what I should do next. I feel like when I slow solve or just solve in general I am doing nothing new. Idk how to even begin to learn COLL, VLS, or ZBLL. I will list some stuff about my knowledge of cubing and let me know what I should be learning/studying/focusing on next.
Method: CFOP
PB: 10.593 seconds
mean: 16~18 seconds
+ Advanced cross
+ Full OLL & PLL knowledge (57olls and 21plls)
+ aware that saving regrips and rotations will result in faster times
+ advanced fingertricks
+/- sometimes look ahead is amazing, sometimes absolutely terrible
+/- intermediate F2L knowledge, I know a lot of tricks but bet I can learn a lot more
+/- I can do CN but am still strongest on white and yellow
- locky execution of some LL algs such as Y perm, Z perm, OLLs 1, 3, 4, 19, 20, 32 (I do lefty version but am right dominate), 34, 39 (cuz lefty alg), 42 (I hate OLL 42), 55, 56 for example
- beginner at forming Xcrosses
- rarely uses psuedo f2l pairing to solve two pairs with one slot then aligning the cross back to solve them both simultaneously
- not good at tracking pieces in my head, so planning cross + 1. I find difficult unless its really obvious and easy to preserve a pair or just work the cross around a solved edge piece and just align cross into a simple Xcross
- not able to predict how other F2L pairs will be affected while solving the current pair
- unable to predict OLL/PLL skips with proper AUFs
- subconsciously/instinctually still rotating too much during F2L and sometimes even have a rotation in the cross solution
YouCubers I watch:
J Perm, Laz0rMonkey, Cube For Speed, Matty, Tymon, Ruihang Xu
I want to get my solves to be sub10 on average eventually, so what do I need to do? Should I be aiming to get my averages to sub15 for now? How do I go about it?
Thank you forum for taking the time to read this.
