I just had the best session of 3x3 in my life. I did about 200 solves last week and couldn't really move my average out of the 14.1-14.3 second range, but today I managed to get my Ao50 down to 13.38 and my Ao100 down to 13.79.
Naw, mate. Just because something seems more appealing to you doesn't mean you stop practicing other things. And just because something is low on your list doesn't mean you shouldn't stop trying. Like your 3-bld. That must've felt real special when you got your first success.I'm sub-15 on clock right now and I'll probably switch from practicing clock and 3BLD to practicing clock and 2H/OH Roux
I recommend staying with 3-bld and clock, and not move away from 3-bld to 2H/OH roux or whatever. Make it part of your practice.I'm hoping to get more into bld events in the future
If he wants to work on roux, that's fine. Let people make their own decisions on what they want to practice.Naw, mate.

You even said it yourself:

I'm not quitting 3BLD, just focusing less on it. I care more about 2H and OH than 3BLD, so I'm switching focus to them for the moment.I recommend staying with 3-bld and clock, and not move away from 3-bld to 2H/OH roux or whatever. Make it part of your practice.
Sorry about the rant. But I don't like how, and I am guilty, people say they do one thing, but switch to a different topic that is more appealing. It's better to work on stuff that is harder and less fun, then do the stuff that is more fun. Ex. Homework, then video games for an hour or so.I'm not quitting 3BLD, just focusing less on it.

Good luck. Do you still stream?Due to a variety of factors, I won't be posting here for the majority of the next three months and I'll be cutting back on cubing practice. Before I go for a while, here's my goals, averages, and practice plans for each event:
3x3: Sub-14 with cfop, want to switch to roux and get similar times. I'll be practicing this a lot
2x2: Sub-4.2 with cll, want to learn aufs and be consistently sub-4. I'll practice this a moderate amount
4x4: Sub-59 with yau, just want to keep grinding and get sub-55. I'll also practice this a moderate amount
5x5: Sub-2:40, not really going to practice
OH: Sub-24 with cfop, want to switch to roux and get equal or better times. I'll practice this a lot
3BLD: 10% success rate and get 5-7 minutes, not really going to practice
Megaminx: Sub-1:50, want to get sub-1:30 if I practice but I'm not sure how much time I'll invest
Pyraminx: Sub-13, not going to practice
Squan: Sub-27, maybe get sub-20 if I practice but might not have time
Clock: Sub-14, maybe go for sub-10 but I'll be practicing very little
I wanted to, but life caught up with me and I couldn't anymoreGood luck. Do you still stream?
Do you have tips on how to predict AUF for CLLs? Do I just memorize a corner and see what cases it would end up as solved?Quick update on my progress:
Consistently sub-4 with cll and I know the aufs for all clls except s/as
Sub-56.5 on 4x4
Sub-27 with OH roux
Sub 15.5 with 2H roux
I'm also going to try to become color neutral with roux over the next two months
