Round 39 - Race to Sub 5.5
Cube: Dayan Zhanchi 2x2
Method: Ortega/Varasano
Generated By csTimer on 2016-5-2
avg of 12: 5.45 (2/3)

This second sub 5.5 comes as a surprise that I almost spoil with the DNF and the last two solves but, even by a narrow margin I got it again. The 3rd solve was a lol scramble, probably one of my best 3 solves ever.

What method do you use again?

I use Ortega. I thought you knew that
Jason Green

I think I did, that's why I said "again".I use Ortega. I thought you knew that
That's encouraging that I have that much room to improve. Of course I probably need to learn PBL algs for top and bottom so I don't have to flip.

Haha, I'm used to just scrolling quickly to the bottom looking for any comments, I forgot that was there.It says it in his post with results

Yeah, no problem
Regarding the potential of Ortega I think it can really get you to sub-4, with fast hands. Probably at my age just to sub-5 or sub-4.5 at best. And, yeah, I definitely recommend you to learn PBL algs to avoid having to flip the cube, but it's also inspection and OLL prediction (at least on easy faces) and, ofcourse, putting the bottom bar where it belongs from the beginning, trying to identify AUF before or midway PBL, etc. I'm nowhere near my limit on any of those, that's why I haven't cared to learn CLL/EG yet.

Probably the fact that I do maybe a few dozen 2x2 solves a week compared to the hundreds of 3x3 is a limiting factor for me.

That's exactly my problem with 5x5 (to a less extent with 4x4) but it's just because it takes me ages to solve it. That's a non-issue with 2x2 because I can sit down for 20 minutes and do an Ao50 or more. But, the truth is I don't practice 2x2 that much lately as big cubes are eating more and more of my training time. Even 3x3 is suffering because of that... or because I can't really get any faster.Probably the fact that I do maybe a few dozen 2x2 solves a week compared to the hundreds of 3x3 is a limiting factor for me.

WOAH this was lucky and fun, I should start doing this race! Very cool average lucky and risky. I was being risky with some of my solves and that's why the average was so inconsistent.
