[Help Thread] Puzzle Choice Thread

[TheMasterJadi]

Thx guys for your answers, I'l take it all into consideration! I have big hands too, so I'm between 4×4 and the pyraminx. Atm, (in 3×3) I'm sub 30 and get low 20's inconsistently, so I'll try to average like sub-15 and then I'll start learning another puzzle

 

[TheMasterJadi]

lol @TheMasterJadi be like these people are no help at all

Don't worry dude at least they're giving me some sort of insight while I take a choice

I went this route: 3x3 -> 5x5 -> Megaminx.

I skipped 4x4 (will get around to it at some point--the 4x4 I bought hasn't arrived in the mail just yet) and went straight to 5x5 because it shares one key quality with all odd-dimensioned puzzles: fixed centers.

The next three on my list are: 2x2 -> 4x4 -> Pyraminx.

I'd really like to get into the FTO, but I hate all the existing hardware (and I don't do modding).

What is your favorite Megaminx, and why is it your favorite?

I'm just getting into Megaminx and am curious what's out there that people are impressed with. In general I tend to like stability over speed, stickerless over stickered, and smooth turning puzzles.

My favorite is the galaxy v2 m, because it’s the only one I have

The megaminx that almost all top pros use is the YuHu V2 M, which is all around a great mega. It's fast and stable, but it is kinda big. If you have small hands, a great option is the Galaxy V2 M (make sure to get the sculpted version). It's slower than the yuhu v2 but considerably smaller.

 

[Owen Morrison]

I like the Galaxy V2 M because my small hands and short fingers require small cubes and the Yuhu is massive.

Looking for a budget 2x2
YJ YuPo v2m or QiYi ms

How strong are the WR M 2020's magnets and would you recommend 2020 or the original.

if you use cfop i would say the new one is better but for roux the new one is not that good because it has strong magnets.

They are basically medium strength to try to suit most people without interchangeable magnets.

qiyi MS out if those options but I would recommend the meilong M as it is the same price.

If you're willing to spend $10, I recommend getting the YJ MGC 2x2 since it'll be a very long time before you need an upgrade

 

[TheSlykrCubr]

If you enjoy using the RS3 M 2020, would you like the WR M 2020, Valk or MGC Elite? I really want to try all of them.

 

[TheSlykrCubr]

what's lol

Do you have anything useful to add?

I'm gonna assume that it's the songwriting skills of Mr. van Leer

Is there any budget magnetic 3x3 cube apart from the Meilong 3M and QiYi MS 3x3?

Probably get the RS3M 2020, which I know is good, or the Kylin V2, which is apparently good

Gan mega the best because its fast and light and is concave not sculpted
