[WR] Lucas Etter - 4.90 3x3 single!

[CubePro]

I DIDNT EVER THINK IT WAS GOING TO GET FASTER THAN 5 SECS. Anyway, GJ Lucas, GJ. I feel Feliks could've got a sub 4.5 on the scramble though :/.

 

[DGCubes]

lol, all the people hating on you a few pages ago

Yeah, whatever people criticize me for, it honestly all just happened out of sheer excitement (lame excuse, right?).
It's behind us though. The main thing now is that 4.90. Although Collin's still pretty dang fast.

Can we please give Lucas his credit for being the first one to get a sub-5 without trying to theorize what would have happened had Feliks been there?

Side note: None of the Full CN solvers did better than an 8.71 (and I'm not sure if he's full CN, if not, none did better than 9.88) on that scramble.

sub 5 is crazy.
I don't care what feliks could have don't because Lucas did. he must feel amazing

I agree, Lucas deserves the WR completely

I mean like what if Feliks DID get the WR, it'd be nothing exciting or unexpected, but THIS was, while Feliks is still amazing, I say good job to lucas for breaking the sub-5 barrier in competition

Actual quote from Andrew Huang: "I mean if Feliks got a 5.09, everybody would just be like, well that's not really surprising. But it's Keaton, so everybody's like [insert eyebrow raise]." (from before Lucas's 4.90 obviously)

Lucas solves white cross only I think.

 

[FastCubeMaster]

NO WAY I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING

Precisely. To my knowledge, everyone who beat 9.88 on that scramble is Dual Neutral at the most.

 

[ClovisKoo]

Absolutely incredible. Congrats to all three!
