Not true at all. Roux's potential is, by all reputable accounts, equal to if not more than CFOP. Roux has so many advantages.They all could be faster if they didn't use roux tho... So sad

Roux has a ton of potential just comparing how many of the top 20 cubers in the world use Roux and matching that with the percentage of Rouxers worldwide.
Yeah totally agree, it’s more fun too with those M and U moves. But the problem with Roux are that one, it isn’t a popular beginner’s method due to its block building not being algorithmic and lack of resources(relative to CFOP), making it hard for beginners to simply follow the book. And since THE beginner’s method is just a simplified CFOP it’s easier for beginners to follow the path and learn CFOP, Which in terms makes the percentage of speedcubers using Roux low.Not true at all.

CFOP in 2016 (by WR Ao5) is slower than Roux today.
Kians literally gotten to tilting his head to get better. Roux is running out of room to improve.I mean the reason why ROUX is slower is because there haven’t been that many people pushing the times down as there are in CFOP.
My point being that I think that Roux just needs to "catch up" with CFOP. After all, CFOP has been around for 38 years and Roux has only existed for 16.And roux in 2019 is slower than cfop in 2017......
I think that Roux is better off than CFOP in that respect, actually. When's the last time you heard of that kind of innovation with CFOP?Kians literally gotten to tilting his head to get better. Roux is running out of room to improve.
With the cube having so many possible combinations I think both roux and cfop will continue to improve as methods for a very long time. While yes I do prefer cfop, I have to say roux is a pretty neat method and it certainly has advantages, like it can be done rotationless, and it has a lower move count. I would not be surprised if cfop has pretty much reached it's full potential when roux reaches the age cfop is now. However that is just my opinion, and I think both methods are equally viable, and I am interested to see where they go.While roux is catching up to cfop, cfop is pushing farther along...

it's possible to be global sub5 with cfop
CFOP has more fast people not because it's faster, but because more people use it. If as many people used Roux as CFOP, the world rankings would most definitely look much different.Does anyone know of any Roux users in the top 100 Ao5s other than Sean Patrick Villanueva, Kian Mansour, Alexander Lau, and Kaijun Lin?
