Hopefully it's not another V-Cube KO

Define KO.
It will likely be based off of the AoSu which is very similar to the X - cube which was apparently a KO of the V-cube 4 (which didn't exist) but when it was released it had the alignment mech from the X.

Don't expect this cube to be a break through in technology just a different version ( and hopefully much better) of the V-5.

If it is by your definition no ones cares who a, speedcuber(there might be one or two but the vast majorly don't care). It about the performance of a cube rather than whether it's a KO or not.


My guess is it will be an AoSu with the hidden layer not internal. Since it a 5x5 with a hidden layer inside it. As most even big cubes are.

I'm wondering if the first syllable of the names of Moyu's puzzles tell us the mechanism... If so, the AoChuang would have roughly the same mech design as the AoSu. To confirm this, can anyone tell me if there are any similarities of the mech of the WeiSu and WeiLong?

If I'm right, Wei means power, and Su and Long mean 'speed' and 'dragon' respectively. So I don't think the name has anything to do with the mechanism. Power dragon is pretty cool though.

Ao means proud.

I see more resemblance between aosu and weilong than weisu and weilong

It probably will resemble the AoSu. Just like the Shengshou 5x5 is similar to the Shengshou 4x4. Also the AoSu is based upon the weilong so both have similar looking mechanism. The WeiSu doesn't resemble the weilong that much!

Tbh a well modded ss 5x5 does the job just fine. I cant come up with anything I'd need more in a 5x5. Mine doesnt pop, it corner cuts, its fast. Inner layers can rarely lock up a bit if im inaccurate. I'd like to see a cube that tops that.

Is there a chance you can design a 15 sliding puzzle?
