How fast are you with Roux?

[antoineccantin]

~30

 

[Iggy]

Around 16-17 I guess

 

[ChickenWrap]

Around 40 seconds...my "roux" is more like building the left block, doing 2 f2l pairs, and then normal roux lol!

 

[PianoCube]

Did an average of 5 just to see. Got 42.34. It's my first Roux solves in a half year or so, and I have never practiced.

Resources, Not much thinking and because World records are set but using CFOP

avg100 UWR is with Roux. Just saying

There aren't many resources because there are enough. There are too many that are the same with CFOP. Everything you need already exists.
You'd rather be 10 seconds slower than have to think a little bit?
Just because no one sets WRs with other methods, it doesn't mean people can't set WRs. Alex Lau has the UWR Ao100 with Roux, and he's also in the top three in the world. One of the main reasons why there isn't a Roux WR is because so few people use it; it's not because it isn't a fast method. It is a fast method, and it is good enough to get a WR, but most fast people don't use it.

Think again,
Why do you want to avoid thinking in a mind sport?
Why do you have to wait for someone to get a WR to start yourself? By then you'd have started too late.

Also sure less resources but we create our own. Don't underestimate the power of practice.

 

[Furry]

Just learned it a few minutes ago About ~50 seconds. And just barely sub 20 with CFOP

My blockbuilding efficiency is embarrassing though.
