My Last Layer Times

[nitrocan]

I just did an average of 25 (don't know why 25) LL times and here are my times:

It seems to be very slow, 7 second LL. Even if I get 12 second f2l, I won't always get sub20... What should I practice?

 

[Escher]

Im a three-looker, and i get an average of around that. How recently did you finish learning the OLLs? i know that a friend who finished them a little while ago had to practice a LOT til he was beating his 3-look times. as always, the advice is to just practice. 100 solves a day is a (more than) healthy amount. do a couple of time attacks for each every day. note down which OLLs/PLLs are slow and hammer them down, or learn a new/better algorithm. What was your 12.28? (if you remember). anyway... PRACTICE.

 

[nitrocan]

It was a C OLL with a G Perm afterwards. I know 53 OLL algorithms, I don't know the awkward shapes. Two of those were awkward shapes I think (at least one). 1.87 was a PLL skip.

 

[fanwuq]

I get similar times. right now, I'm trying to practice executing LL algs faster and training my look ahead for recognition. Just practice.

 

[nitrocan]

My F2L is like 17-18 seconds so I average somewhere between 24 and 25

 

[fanwuq]

There's your problem. I would try to just solve casually turning and focus on look ahead or turn super fast while trying to find the pieces, but don't be nervous or angry. That's how I could get sub-14 F2Ls. If I rush, it can be as bad as 20. If I'm really calm and focused, and on ryanheise sim, all F2Ls are about 7-12 seconds.

 

[ShadenSmith]

My LL is awful. I average 12-13 on F2l, but my complete solve average is 22-23.

 

[cubeman34]

my f2l stinks im total noob it takes me on average 20.67 seconds i average 35 secs

 

[EmersonHerrmann]

nitrocan, where'd you get those scrambles? I would really like to have these to practice my LL.

EDIT: Nevermind, found it!

 

[Sa967St]

did you inspect the OLL before you started timing?

BTW I wanted to try this, so I did (with >1 second inspection each)

[CAT13]

My LL is awful. I average 12-13 on F2l, but my complete solve average is 22-23.

Same here. 10 second LL ftl

 

[Mike Hughey]

I tried it:
Average: 09.86 sec.

Fastest Time: 03.61 (The same one you did 1.87 on)
Slowest Time: 12.37
Standard Deviation: 01.66
(Didn't toss out highest or lowest; allowed full inspection before starting each one.)

I did just a 2-look LL on each solve.

My F2L is like 17-18 seconds so I average somewhere between 24 and 25

Wow, I stink at LL. I average between 29 and 30, and 10 seconds of that is LL. (Probably a little more, adding OLL recognition time.) To catch up to you, I need to shave 2 seconds off my F2L and 3 seconds off my LL.

Fingertricks, Mike! ;-)

 

[brunson]

nitrocan, where'd you get those scrambles? I would really like to have these to practice my LL.

EDIT: Nevermind, found it!

Where did you find them? I'm interested because I wrote something to generate LL drills just like that.
