I'll be posting every now and then of what I've achieved. I learned full pll a few days ago, all of my PLL's are around 5 seconds now. I'm learning full OLL, using Cubehead's calendar, but not really gonna try to do it in a month, might be able to, idk.

Main Cube: Rs3m 2020

Usually average mid 20's

PB: 15.64 seconds.

OLL's learned so far: T shapes: did it before wanting to learn full OLL, cuz there very intuitive to learn. All corners-oriented cases and the squares cases, prob the most difficult to learn out of these so far.

If you have any suggestions on what alg's I should learn or anything like that will be very much appreciated.

Good luck! Tips:

-Practice F2L Algs. These will be important as you will need to execute in about 10s to get to sub-20. If you use intuitive, it will be very hard. I suggest you learn from the cubeskills pdf.

Update: Just learned the lightning bolt cases (big and small) for OLL, Here are the Algs:

OLL 39: L F' (L' U' L U) F U' L'

OLL 40: R' F (R U R' U') F' U R

OLL 7: (r U R' U) (R U2 r')

OLL 8: (l' U' L U') (L' U2 l)

OLL 11: (r U R' U) (R' F R F') (R U2 r')

OLL 12: M' (R' U' R U') (R' U2 R U') R r'

I'm using the lefty cases for 3 & 39 cuz IMO the righty cases are pretty bad compared to them.

 

[MuaazCubes]

All of my Lightning bolt cases are around the 9-7 second mark, still really slow, will try to get them down to 5 seconds by the end of today.

Nice! Practise makes perfect

 

[MuaazCubes]

Nice! Practise makes perfect

Thanks! Now all of my lightning bolt cases are around the 4.3-second mark, took a while, plus I had school, and hopefully tomorrow I can start on some other cases, probably the P and C shape cases.

Good job ,I usually cube after school for an hour or so,depending on what day it is and if there is a test tomorrow

 

[MuaazCubes]

Good job ,"

Thanks!
[QUOTE=" I usually cube after school for an hour or so,depending on what day it is and if there is a test tomorrow"[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I usually do some homework after school, then do some chores, and then cube for some time or I just get really stressed out because there's an assignment I have to do or I have a test during the week and watch Netflix.

 

[Jake1]

hahaha

 

[MuaazCubes]

Most of my OLL's so far are nearing the 3-2 second mark except for OLL 12 which is still near 4.7

 

[MuaazCubes]

I timed all of my OLL Algorithms. Here are their times:

OLL 5: 2.97

OLL 6: 3.84

OLL 7: 3.86

OLL 8: 1.68

OLL 11: 2.67

OLL 12: 4.24

OLL 21: 2.49

OLL 22: 2.06

OLL 23: 2.19

OLL 24: 1.27

OLL 25: 2.74

OLL 26: 1.54

OLL 27: 1.41

OLL 28: 1.95

OLL 33: 1.19

OLL 37: 1.66 (Learned it pretty intuitively while scrolling through the algs)

OLL 39: 2.38

OLL 40: 1.77

OLL 45: 1.49

OLL 57: 1.37

 

[MuaazCubes]

Just learned the P & C shaped OLL cases. Here are the algs I use:

OLL 31: R' U' F (U R U' R') F' R

OLL 32: S (R U R' U') (R' F R f')

OLL 34: R U (R2 U' R') F (R U R U') F'

OLL 43: R' U' (F R' F' R) U R

OLL 44: f (R U R' U') f'

OLL 46: R' U' (R' F R F') U R

These, IMO are pretty easy algs to memorize. OLL 32 might be difficult to finger trick a little bit due to the S move in the beginning.

 

[MuaazCubes]

I just timed the P and C cases. Here are their times:

OLL 31: 2.91

OLL 32: 1.84

OLL 34: 6.26

OLL 43: 2.90

OLL 44: 1.53

OLL 46: 1.94

 

[Cubing Forever]

I just timed the P and C cases. Here are their times:

OLL 31: 2.91

OLL 32: 1.84

OLL 34: 6.26

OLL 43: 2.90

OLL 44: 1.53

OLL 46: 1.94

Why the 6.26 on OLL 34? What alg are you using?

 

[MuaazCubes]

Im using R U (R2 U' R') F (R U R U') F'. thats mostly cuz I got some lockups, (yes, im making excuses)

 

[Cubing Forever]

Try f R f' U' r' U' R U M' or R U R' U' x D R' U R U' D' x'(I used to use this alg) or F' U' F U r U R' U' M. your alg seems fine too. It's just a matter of changing your fingertricks.

 

[MuaazCubes]

Try f R f' U' r' U' R U M' or R U R' U' x D R' U R U' D' x'(I used to use this alg) or F' U' F U r U R' U' M. your alg seems fine too. It's just a matter of changing your fingertricks.

Yeah your probably right, I'll try to watch some videos for finger tricking this alg. thanks for the advice!

 

[Cubing Forever]

Yeah your probably right, I'll try to watch some videos for finger tricking this alg. thanks for the advice!

I think you should switch to the first one cuz that's the best alg for the case
Use yours for the angle

 

[MuaazCubes]

I just got a solve that was 0.29 seconds off my pb.

scramble: U' L' B' L F' R' D' L' D2 F2 B2 R2 U2 B2 U' L2 F2 U' L2 F' L (green front, white top)

Im not that good at remembering my solves.

but I remember that after I inserted my first f2l pair, 2 more were already solved in the top layer. OLL was alright, sune + U perm.

 

[the dnf master]

Im using R U (R2 U' R') F (R U R U') F'. thats mostly cuz I got some lockups, (yes, im making excuses)

I use that alg and it's quite fast, you probably need to drill it more or learn better finger tricks
