One-Answer Pyraminx Question Thread

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

How do you solve U layer?

How do you solve U layer?

I keyhole all of them. What I want to do is sort-of like an upside down layer by layer. sometimes I use the unnamed moves to solve pyra though, so when I learn, writing my solutions will be awkward...

How quick do you think this step could be done? This is an interesting idea for a method.

I mean. it would be a ton of algs, so it would probably be an oll/pll sort-of thing. I'm not good at generating algs, and I can't find any programs that can help me do that.

I'm 99.9 percent sure that this method already exists. Odder made a thread about pyra methods a while back so check there if this already exists

I looked at it. It says the matthew flay method, but it is a one look last layer, so pretty much pyraminx zbll. I want to propose an oll/pll system that is easier to recall and identify.

ZBLL isn't 1lll it's 1lll when the edges are already oriented

ZBLL isn't 1lll it's 1lll when the edges are already oriented

Isn't that COLL then?

 

[Rcuber123]

Isn't that COLL then?

COLL is orienting and permuting corners only while preserving current edge orientation

Gods number for pyrominx? how many combinations are there?

God's number is 11 (not counting tips). There are 933,120 without tips, and 75,582,720 with tips.

i guess that means gods number with tips must be 15?

Yes

Hello everyone,
I am 6 weeks into Pyraminx now and I always used LBL and I average 8 seconds and yesterday I learned intuitive L4E and my times are worse. It's 11 seconds average... Is it normal or do I something wrong and what's the best way to practice it?

It's 100% expected that your times will go up when learning any new method. Just keep at it. The best way to practice intuitive L4E is to do slow solves and make sure your solutions are near-optimal and easy to finger trick. And of course, just doing a bunch of timed solves will help a ton.

Hmm thanks man! Do you use intuitive L4E? Or do you know all the 24? algs? You get sub-4, don't you

yeah he uses intuitive L4E and he averages low 3s(i think)
i also use intuitive L4E and average sub 4.
most of the "algs" are just prememorized ituitive solutions for each case wich ruins the understanding of how L4E works

Wow that's fast man. I don't understand how lol. The "V" takes 4 seconds in my case and then I need to recognize how to fix the Last 4 Edges. How long do you use L4E?

Since I started. I unboxxed my first pyra and immediately soloved it intuitively. then I looked up pyra methods and saw that what I did is called L4E

Hmmm, thanks!
I practiced and my pb ao5 is 8.31 with LBL it's 5.65, I need to practice a lot
