Nir1213's Quest to Sub-20 with CFOP!

[LukasCubes]

You should’ve just edited your original thread.

thats what i told nir-something but someone else told nir that he was confused so nir121something made this thread

ok lets re-learn 4LLL again! Yay!! Will take just another 2 weeks..

Don't do it, just check your algs if they are good, and that's it.

I suggested it because learning to get to sub 40 is a different skill set than learning to get to sub one minute.

i was being sarcastic but ok

[LukasCubes]

yeah ok

Nir, what type of cube are you using? Is it magnetic? I know before you said you wanted to upgrade, but I missed it if you did or not yet.

I think he got the RS3M 2020.

When I first learned intuitive f2l it was a lot slower than beginner but after about a week and a half you will get faster.

This is a thread where i practice and learn cases and algs to get to sub 40.
Right now i learned intuitive f2l but i also need help and tips with it.

so now i have this problem where i see that before i learned intuitive f2l i had a 40 second average on f2l, so i went to learn intuitve f2l to get a lower f2l average, but now that i use intuitvte f2l my solve time is 1 minute and 30 seconds on average??
does this need more practice or i am doing it wrong?

i like how cuberstache put eyes up in this post, the same as the sub 1 min one.
dont understand why

I think he does it because it is really easy to do this; all you need to do is practice, practice, practise...

What sub-x are you now and when do you think you will hit sub-40?

I think according to Nir's improvement rate, he will get there in maybe 3 weeks or a month.

ima guess 2 weeks. I went from sub-50 LBL to sub-1:30 beginner CFOP to sub-45 in a week. I dont really remember when I first hit sub-40 but I think he will get it in 2 weeks.

i fully learned intuitive f2l and now i average f2l like a minute not sure
needs some pwactice

Just do lots of solves, it will come easily.

As @WarriorCatCuber said, practice and solves will help with F2L. And also, do you do the daisy to do the cross?

no i do cross immediatly and its 100% always down but its a bit sluggish so yea

i do the f2l in 1 minute and 27 seconds around that time im just so slow to recognize and execute the cases, needs some time and practice your right.

From personal experience I improved my cross by just doing untimed solves and used unlimited inspection to plan it, and this will also help you with your understanding of how pieces work and how to place them in certain places.
