I realize this is the help thread, but i feel like, that this belongs here, to show that you guys have really helped me out with Roux. I just got a sub-20 average using it and a new PB! the PB was 14.067!!!

Congrats! Sub-20 was one of the hardest barriers for me. It's so satisfying when you finally beat it.
And no, this doesn't just have to be a help thread - it's for discussion too. You can post PBs here if you want!

And then i went to solve again, and my cube exploded on the one case, (dont know the name) where you solve using M' U2 M2 U2 M'

OK and now for a question. If after doing EO, and I have a solved F2L, and have a U-perm, should I use M slices to solve, or just use the RU version? Im faster at the RU version

we this is a discussion thread as well. if it is at all related to roux, it is welcome here. and i call that case you are reffering to "front bars" (event though there is only one bar on the front, but aint nobody got time for correctness)

well you shouldnt even be thinking in terms of pll and cfop. during a roux solve, the method should be so natural to you that you would only ever consider solving it based off of roux method standards. that is a sign of true comfort with the method.

Ok, but I firstly learned CFOP, got Sub-20 with it, and have 40 OLL's and PLL's but no CMLL's so should I stick with Roux, I got a sub-30 avg, not a sub-20 avg sorry about that typo

hey, sub 30 is still a pretty great accomplishment. well, i think i recommended that you sticking with cfop a while ago, but it seems that you really like this method. i see no reason for you to have to pick one over the other. the last time i talked to Louise de Mendonca (or TDM as you may know him here... his name is just to beautiful not to use in its entirety 
) he said that he averaged low 13sec with both methods, and his fastest averages were those where he wouldnot limit himself to one specific method.

Yeah, I tend to do a combo of Roux and CFOP, where I do F2B, CMLL, EO, F2l, EPLL

That's not really what I meant. I'm talking about doing roux for one solve, but then using CFOP for another one of there is a good cross. That thing your talking about is not good.

With the bar in front, try solving it like Roux. It's actually a lot faster, and is four fewer moves with on regrips, unlike the normal <R,U> U perms:
setup: R U' R U R U R U' R' U' R2
solve: M2 U' M U2 M' // ULUR
U' M2 // EP
I use this for U perms when doing CFOP as well. They're so much nicer than the normal RU ones.
wat
also, don't forget the ç!
but 2*314 = 628??

About what time should my F2B be done if I have a 15 move (STM) FB and 12 SB?
PenguinsDontFly

never. I would rather have you take twenty minutes finding a sub 10 FB solution because 12 is bad (srry). And why is your second block better than mine?

im sorry, but that just aint american!

Lol I have no idea. I hate my FB solutions, but my SB is generally pretty good
