One-Answer Pyraminx Question Thread

[penguinz7]

Just started keyhole and i average like a bit below 20seconds. Wondering if there is anything I should specifically practice/work on to be faster? I used to use lbl but i really dont like it so im determined to learn keyhole xD

Edit: Im now average 15, still need tips though

Try to use your inspection really well, Plan out as much as you can before you start solving. It mostly just comes down to practice. Once you're sub-10ish I would recommend learning one-flip.

I'd recommend oka over one flip at that point and one flip at sub8ish (that's what I'm doing with my keyhole process) oka was just really easy to grasp compared to 15 algs

If he's using keyhole, he already knows 5 of those algs, and two of the remaining ten are only three moves. The other eight are all still quite easy, but oka would work fine for sub 10 too. Another reason I suggested one flip is because I really like that tutorial, and I don't know of a really good one for oka. (I'm sure there is one, I just don't know about it)
Source: I average sub-4.3 with top-first.

Can someone please direct me to a great keyhole tutorial? Cant seem to find a nice one.

I average 6.5-7 seconds using LBL. Anyone know a good tutorial for L4E without too many algs?

Walkthrough solves should be enough to get an idea of how it works.

I'm looking for a pyraminx last layer alg for keyhole, my case is basically the cycle edges clockwise cycle alg you would find in lbl, but i need it for the bottom layer and not the top, can i get some help?

Hold the face the edges are on on F, and do: L R' L' R2 U' R' U.

Thanks! (But shouldnt the R2 just be R'?)

It's faster to execute it as R2

As Cale said, R2 is faster. However it also makes it easier to see that it's really just hedge z hedge, which makes it easier to learn as well.

I'm starting to learn pyraminx, and I intuitively came up with this method, and I want to know what it is.

It starts with solving the U layer, and then the rest. Any tutorials with that method?

Do u solve all the centers with the top or only the top?

I solve the whole U layer, and then I want to solve the rest wit one algorithm.

That would be a lot of algs

 

[Sion]

That would be a lot of algs

How many about?

 

[Rcuber123]

How many about?

I don't really know but I used a quick calculation to got about 300 algs

 

[PixelWizard]

Is there a cycle-based BLD Method for Pyra?
