Nice job, but to be "official" you have to do that in comp :p

well i mean like global average. Also, pb ao 100 13.39, pb ao 12 12.52. I think by the time I go to a comp, I will be like sub 11
EDIT: i found a 13.21 pb ao 50 in the ao 100 lol

Maybe sub 2 cmll?!
Im not even sub 2 cmll. Get maybe half second of lse so its 4.5, cmll at 3 with recog is fine, get fb at 3 (plan in inspection and dont even look at it) sb is fine. That gives you splits of 3-5-3-4.5 which is 15.5 with no pauses. Just turn slow. You saw how slow I was turning in intuitive steps, about 3-4 tps. But dont be afraid to max outtps on cmll. If you really want to practise cmll, 5BLD has a cmll training video where you do the alg when each case shows up and you have less and less time to do each one.
 
Roux

Hello guys. I visited the thread about beginners guide to choosing a speedsolving method. I think that Roux is appropriate for me as I don't like learning complex algorithms and I think that I will be bad with case recognition(Which are both essential for CFOP). My main goal is to get sub-30 ASAP. I was wondering if it is good for a first method and what is the progress rate? I know the rate for progress will be dependent on me, but how does a average person progress with Roux? And where can I get a printable sheet for the method's tutorials with all the cases? And are there any good video tutorials that are easy to understand for a noob?
 
Thanks for the tutorial!! I just watched the first 2 parts and they are very well explained :D Can you answer the others questions if you know?

I'm the one who made that tutorial. Let me know if you have any specific questions. Also, I totally agree with TDM about progress. Some people go very fast, some people go slow. Your progress is based on your work ethic combined with natural ability to pick up new concepts. I went from 1 minute to sub-20 in about 8 months, but I think it was more work ethic than anything. I was practicing about an hour each day.

Thanks for the help DeeDubb and great work on the videos! I am bad at cubing but wanna get faster than my friends who are like 35-45 secs using the beginners LBL. They treat me like a inferior person as I can't solve it whole so I just wanna show them that anyone can get fast and I am sure to attract some attention of I use a different method. They think I am a loser though they use Rubik's brands lol. I ordered my self a Aolong V2 and a Zhanchi and will work very hard to beat them. Well, I am getting off topic but thanks again for the help :D I'll be sure to subscribe later on :D

@TDM - Thanks to you too :D

Remember, my method is JUST to get you familiar with Roux and solving comfortably. If you want to be fast, you must look at some other methods (especially for corners). So, I recommend after you can solve with Roux, without using any help, start looking at Waffo's, 5BLD's, or Donovan's Roux tutorials. THOSE ones will get you to 35 seconds. My tutorial will only get you started.


I just subbed, congrats on 100 subs :D


Oh wow! That's a huge milestone! Umm... I wonder if I should have a contest? hah.

No, 100 Guanlongs so all get one XD. Though on a serious note, yes, I do know yours was just a way to start and I will start practising Roux as soon as my cubes come. Any bad thing your video teaches that I should avoid as it will be hard when I switch to advanced one?

I completely agree!
