Good, exactly what i would do. So probably you are already pretty efficient with lse, i guess just practice until you can do it faster in real solves

Anyone know of any LSE practice tools.

I think http://www.cstimer.net/ has a L10P option, but I don't remember if a L6E also, I think it doesn't.

I'll soon add a "just LSE" option to my CMLL trainer (http://alejos.org/cmll-trainer.php), could that be enough?

I think that it does have an LSE option but it's tucked away in some obscure menu last time I looked.

Oh yeah it has a LSE option (and one with only <M,U>), it's easy to find, it's on the same menu as the L10P.

I downloaded qqTimer offline and modified it to have a bunch of Roux related scramblers:

First Block Front Pair
Second Block
Second Block Front Pair
Second Block Back Pair
Second Block Random Pair
Second Block Both Pairs
CMLL
LSE Random State
LSE <M,U>
LSE 4b

They're under "3x3x3 Roux" in the left drop-down menu. There isn't much for the first block because I figured practicing full scrambles and finding a whole solution for the FB is best.

Sometimes some of the scrambles will start with something like U2 U' but that's not hard to notice and do as U. Other than that it works.

I don't think Chrome saves cookies for local html files, but Firefox does so you can use that or host it somewhere.

It works, thanks!

You average mid-20s, right? I saw your splits. You don't need to do lse practice, it should be smooth but it doesn't need to be fast yet. Your lse will naturally improve alongside your blocks, just focus on blocks.

Yeah I do. Quick question, did it become really easy to learn CMLL after a while?

I'd say the first ones you learn are the hardest, once you're familiar with all the cases it's pretty easy to learn new algs when you want to.

That's interesting. I just learned all of my first u cases in the span of an hour.
I'm trying to figure out how.

What's the Best Roux Tutorial?

Hello, I'm trying to get into a speed cube method and I was wondering what the best Roux tutorial on YouTube is. Thanks!

 

[obelisk477]

Best beginner Roux tutorial is probably DeeDubb's, found here

I currently do left handed OH with second block on right. I tried doing some solves with first block on right and then second block on top. My second block flowed nicer. Would it be a good idea to do this from now on or should I just stick with what I was already doing

stick with second block on right cuz then its RUr instead of RUu

what's wrong with RUu, it takes advantage of double turns better.

the grip of wide u moves is more awkward than the grip of wide r.

 

[GuRoux]

the grip of wide u moves is more awkward than the grip of wide r.

for me, they seem exactly the same.

 

[PenguinsDontFly]

for me, they seem exactly the same.

because you have adjusted and you are forced to do u moves cuz ur right handed. besides, doing FB on right is very awkward and it takes quite a bit of getting used to.

well, if you get used to it it won't be awkward. like using your less dominant hand for OH is more awkward until you practice it.
