Week 2 is out! This week I will be focusing on different types of EO in FMC and my OH PLLs. For FMC I will do 5 attempts and try to incorporate some type of edge orientation into each attempt. For the OH PLLs, I feel like PLL is part of what is holding me back in One Handed, so I am going to try to improve that step. I will replace my bad algs with better ones and learn how to finger trick the algs correctly, and then drill them. Every day this week I will do an average of 5 for all my PLLs and post my averages in this thread. I also will continue to grind big cubes and mega but I won't be focusing on any specific part or learning new stuff. I can't wait to improve some more this week!

What do you think your U, H, and Z perms will be. Probably the U perms are gonna be the <RU> ones.

these are meta OH algs
RUF is better than RUL and RUD

RUL and RUD is better in most cases, also:

why is your Ub a mirror of Ua?
R U R' U (J Perm) U' R U' R' is good for Na
Wide F moves for Nb?
Standard A-Perms are super fast
RUD G-Perms are infinite times better
And you giving PLL advice is like me telling you how to do LSE

RUF Can be better than RUL or RUD but typically RUD variants are better, for example this RUL (I rotate to make it RUD) V perm is a whole lot faster than the regular one for OH
R' U2 R U2 L U' R' U L' U L U' R U L'

1. Do a z rotation and do it like U' R U' R' U' R' U' R U R U2 It's really fast
2. Agreed but his alg is probably better
3. I think his alg is better
4. agreed
5. idk

RUL and RUD is only better if you can't turn properly.

Brayden's algs are better. Objectively.

its good but it doesnt mean its the best
wide F moves are quite easy and the same as normal F moves
And the standard A perms are listed as alt algs
RUF>RUD
i didnt make this sheet good oh solvers did. its just the best one i know of that will get updated if theres a new alg
even then, im faster than you OH and probably ZZ

I would agree that wide F moves are a easy as normal F moves--as long as you practice them;)

I don't even use ZZ but I'd still be willing to bet I'm faster. And you practice OH way more and with Roux, which is an entirely different moveset. And the G-Perms listed aren't straight RUF

I learned and used a new E perm, but I'm not sure yet if I like it better.

Which E-perm?
