MJS Cubing's Progression thread [Week 9]

(Maybe even 2 gen

You can't affect corner permutation with 2 gen, so it only works for U,H,Z perms

That alg is great, but it still has that R U R U' trigger that is giving me a problem. Is there another alg, or do I just need to get used to it?

Get used to it. The Rb Perm didn't take me that long to memorize, but still it's not one of my favorites....I actually am learning full PLL currently and I know all the algs except the A perms, the G perms, the N perms, and the accursed V perm.

 

[MJS Cubing]

So I learned my Ra perm, and I really like the Alg. (R U R') F' (R U2 R' U2) R' F (R U R U2) R' I like these kinds of 3 gen algs that use R U and F. I will probably try to learn more algs with these moves. I might actually learn my goal in a week (Saturday is my goal)

I use the same R perm, and honestly I would advise to stick with them, because AUFs are easier with RUF algorithms than RUD

I agree, especially because my D finger tricks are bad, so I regroup for them.

I love this alg, it’s actually one of my faster PLLs.

My TPS is really fast for it, but my only is that it is just way to long to get a sub 1.

 

[MJS Cubing]

So I learned the E perm, now I need to learn how to stop spamming it. Idk why I like it so much but it’s uncontrollable.

I mean, its sort of fun, but I have a love/hate relationship with it...

Also, does anyone else use this Ja Perm PLL, or is it just me being weird? x R2 F R F' R U2 r' U r U2

I use that. I think Jperm recommends it.

I think it’s just you being weird I use y' R' U L' U2 R U' R' U2 R L (holding the bar in the front)

Yeah dude, if I used CFOP I would use it. Imo it's a good alg.

Nah, my alg is better because its shorter, uses one dominant hand, and imo, is better for finger tricks. (Plus, wide moves are really cool)

I use that, it's pretty fast and has the block on the left which is good.

Well your all also has rotations and wide moves which require regrips.

Not really. You can watch me execute it with my finger tricks. Note: I am not doing double flicks.

Ja Perm Execution

 

[CrispyCubing]

Well your all also has rotations and wide moves which require regrips.

The first “rotation” is actually a regrip. Your left hand regrips to thumb on bottom and your right hand stays in home grip. The wide moves can be slightly awkward, but easy to get used to.

R' U L' U2 R U' R' U2 R L Has more regrips depending on how you execute it.

 

[MJS Cubing]

I’m moving faster than I originally anticipated. I figured out that if you just repeat an Alg for 30 minutes it gets locked in you head. I now have muscle memory on all the PLLs that I wanted to learn this week, so I just have the V perm, G Perms and N perms left to learn! I think I’m going to add the v perm to this weeks goal.

Also, this might be a strech But I want to be sub 3 with all PLLs by Christmas. idk if that’s a stupid goal or not

 

[MJS Cubing]

So I have learned the V perm, but I don’t quite have it in muscle memory yet, but that’s not what this post is about. I’m starting to have trouble recognizing PLL cases, taking 1-2 seconds pause after OLL. Is this normal, or do I need to put more time into case recognition?

Case recognition comes with practice. For each PLL come up your own way to recognize the case. For example I recognize V usually by the large block and the outer stickers being opposite colors to the block.
Also, what V Perm are you using? Please don't say you're using the V Perm with a rotation
