I'm gonna torment you and get Fes, Jawk, and Alik to yell at you in the middle of a 7x7 solve through Discord.

Whatever you do... don't mess up.

@NebraskanSpeedsolver have you tried the Qiyi MS(i think) 5x5? I really like it. It turns good and has good magnets. There are 2 major issues, though. 1: Lockups and pops. These happen a lot of the cube is not set up or not broken in properly. 2: When doing M and M' moves on 3x3 stage, sometimes it only turns 2 layers, and not 3. Other than that, its a great cube!

bro... dgmw ...I like the Valk-like color shades and plastic...
but
this 5×5 is the same size as my Aoshi WRM and Meilong V2 7M
@ 63mm ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠☯⁠෴⁠☯⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Qiyi colors are so good. The checkerboards are the perfect additions to a wooden desk

Goals for Nebraska State Champs 2024:
2x2: Sub-7 ao5. Simple, but I don't really practice
3x3: Sub-19 ao5. Again simple, but I don't practice
4x4: Sub-58 ao5. Haven't practiced but should be relatively easy.
5x5: Sub-1:40 ao5. My times dropped a lot when I got the Hong, so this should be easy.
6x6: Sub-3 mean. Started averaging sub-3 a couple weeks ago, hopefully I can keep it up.
7x7: State Record Single and Mean. Started averaging sub-5 recently, and I'm sure that I can break this record if I try, considering I hold the USR

Will this be your first comp, @NebraskanSpeedsolver ?

Sub me 4x4 please! I got a 56 official average. Good luck at your first comp!

 

[Cubist-Guitar]

Nice consistency! My 46.16 PB average was nowhere near as consistent, so I can tell that if you have a few lucky solves, you can beat mine by a lot! Hope you do good at your first comp, and take advantage of an (kind of) easy state for SRs!
