ao12=10.85

actually quite good for me, probably because I have been practicing pyraminx on vacation a lot and found out why I kept getting the edge swap when I did my left V.

@DGCubes Any tips for not getting many solves over 5 seconds? Some of the harder scrambles I just can't do yet. I'm getting lots of counting 3s though.

Good luck for this week everybody!

Eyooooo, really happy with this! Didn't think it was going to be sub-3 with that counting 4.

@DGCubes Any tips for not getting many solves over 5 seconds? Some of the harder scrambles I just can't do yet. I'm getting lots of counting 3s though.

The way I see it, every scramble has potential to be good (or at least, better than it appears). Try to find weird ways of blockbuilding so you always have at least 1 edge solved when you finish centers. Most scrambles have the potential for you to blockbuild an entire V on at least one side, so always look for that. Also, make sure you're solving tips efficiently (like by saving only 1 tip for post-L4E, and do the rest during your V).

Thank you for the help!:)

I got a 4.98 Ao100 yesterday! I like what you said about every scramble has the potential to be good.
