Roux Home Thread

[CheesecakeCuber]

Hey fellow Rouxer's! I'm pretty shure this thread hasn't been made yet, so I decided to take it on myself. Basically:
1) I'm curious about what tricks other Roux users have that could mutually benefit the whole Rouxing community
2) I'd like to see the averages of many of the Roux users on the forum because it isn't as popular as CFOP wiff all its fanbois (sarcasm)

So I suppose I'll start. For posting your stats, this format would be nice to follow, but it's not necessary!

I think you should put your main in the cube category.

really need to make a guide with all this info in.

Yes! You would probably be the best author too...

I'm not a fast solver. I do this as an exercise.
When solving with white on bottom green on left, sometimes I build the right block with yellow on bottom if I see there is a pair already composed; then continue as usual considering white and yellow equivalent when looking at the 4 corners of the top layer. At last, before mouu i do R2 and complete the solve.
Is there anyone using this for speedsolving?

Lots of people do, its's basikally NM blocks/pseudo blocks. However, you should really be y-axis color neutral for blocks. Für example, wat wud happen ef you had the first square on the red side made, it would be terrible to sacrifice that great oppurtunity

Yes it is exactly for this reason that one do this. But how rouxers recognise the patterns?
I have not yet memorised all the CMLL so frequently go with 2Look and sometimes when I build the left block whit white on bottom and righr block with yellow on bottom I cannot recognise the pattern and I don't know how to AUF and witch alg perform. I think full CMLL has even worse recognition for this case?

Thank you,

I got dat x2/y2 CN blox
also still don't know any of the "L" algs
cube: guhong (1?)

Avg 13-15
PB 9.39

I'll edit with my splits cuz I don't know them offhand

edit:
well I either got lucky scrambles or easy lookahead from start/stopping the timer after every step so this is approximate

Two of the three fastest Roux solvers are not y-neutral.

Also you speak like a moron.
