Sometimes, it IS the cube, not the cuber

My average with my rubiks brand 3x3 was 1:20. my first zhanchi arrived and that night i got my first sub minute (47 seconds). i think the cube does make a difference...

I got my second best PB using a Rubik's brand rubik's cube not lucky 14.39. Felik's got a sub 9 in 2010 in a TV show using rubik's brand

Feliks can break WR's with rubiks cube
can he ????
But he CAN with an aolong or a weilong ...
This proves that the cuber and the cube are equally important

Doesn't mean he can't break the world record with a rubik's brand doesn't mean the cube is equally important.

Maybe he could beat the single with a Rubik's brand, if he got a really easy scramble, but if he had that same exact scramble with his AoLong, it would definitely be about a second faster. He would probably never be able to beat the average with a Rubik's brand, unless he modded the heck out of it.

I got my weilong right now and it only made a 0.5 second difference between my old main almost broken lunhui

I just did an ao5 on a an old dead zhanchi that sucks. 10.27. 9.86 on my main. As long as we're talking SPEEDCUBES, you can be world class with amost anything.

As long as we're talking SPEEDCUBES, you can be world class with amost anything.

But it cuts both ways. "As long as we're talking SPEEDCUBERS, your cube can be world class with almost anyone." All you have to do to make either sentence true is use a very narrow definition of speedcube/speedcuber that only includes the best.

Not all speedcubers are world class. I'm willing to bet most sub 10 cubers can sub 10 on any speedcube. Not all speedcubers can sub 10 no matter what cube they have.

Look, I have proof that the cube is equally, if not MORE important than the cuber. I average sub-25, and switching to my 13cm DianSheng drops my time by over 20 seconds!

Obviously, I hear everyone is running out to buy one of those nowadays

Hahahahahahahhahah ROFL Such a huge cube. Its pretty amazing you can sub 1 on one of those things... My friend has one and I can solve it in like 3 minutes even though I average around 30 seconds..

I believe "Its the cuber not the cube" is being directed to cubers who obsess over getting the "best cube" to improve their times instead of actually practicing to improve
So, this kinda only applies to using different modern speedcubes(And maybe some pre-Dayan ones), where a cuber would get similar times regardless of cube, therefore, "Its the cuber not the cube"
