nigels road to 2x2 wr

[NigelTheCuber]

I´ve been cubing for 3 months now and I average about 25seconds( 2-look oll and 2-look pll). So youre average is a little bit faster than mine

Hope you improve soon!

I still struggle doing Sub 20 ao12s but the single solves are pretty good. Just some stoobid 23s or 24s ruining the average.

I've been there too. Sometimes I get a potential sub-10 solve, but I get a really bad PLL like V perm and then I miss it. Another time I hesitated just about 0.5 seconds during F2L, and that resulted in a 10.05.

Also fun fact: for your 12.51 solve, during your second pair, if you don't do y (cube rotation), and you solved the blue orange pair by doing R' U R2 U' R', you would just end up with 2 three move pairs, which completes f2l much faster.

Then it could have been sub 10...

 

[NigelTheCuber]

But even though the F2L is good that way, the OLL would be a dot case, though still not too hard, and the PLL is a G Perm. If you did it fast enough, I'm sure you can get a sub-10. Hope you get more lucky scrambles in the future

Ok

Congrats! I see you only have 1 solve over 20 seconds, you've improved a lot! Just last month you still averaged 23 seconds, now you pulled that up more than 7 seconds! Keep going

Just wanted to share a 2x2 single

Congrats! I see you only have 1 solve over 20 seconds, you've improved a lot! Just last month you still averaged 23 seconds, now you pulled that up more than 7 seconds! Keep going

Not exactly. I still average around 19-20 seconds. anyway, thanks for the motivation!

I made a website https://123cubing.wixsite.com/123cubing/

I am learning how to solve a sq1 from Tingman vid.

1. Cubeshape using scallop scallop

2. Intuitive corner orientation

3. Edge orientation using
(0,-1)/(-3,0)/(4,1)/(-4,-1)/(3,0)/(0,1)

4. Solve parity using mid-solve parity alg as I am very accustomed to PLLs:
/(3,3)/(1,0)/(4,-2)/(-4,2)/(-1,0)/(-3,-3)

5. Permute corners using
/(3,-3)/(3,0)/(-3,0)/(0,3)/(-3,0)

6. Use the adj-adj alg to solve EP
(1,0)/(0,3)/(-1,-1)/(1,-2)/(-1,0)

7. Fix middle
