The cubing argument thread

M moves are easy on 5x5.
I would like to agree, but only on some 5x5s. I have a yuxin cloud (Non-Magnetic) and other than a shengshou mini (we don't talk about that one) It's my only 5x5. It's a pain to do M slices on because there are no magnets holding the inner layers together. That being said, before covid at my one and only comp I got to try an AoChuang GTS M, and that thing was a joy to turn, and M slices were great.

yeah thats what tends to happen when you main a nonmag 5x5 from like 2015
 
a 3 year old girl solves a 3x3 in 47 seconds with a dayan zhanchi 50 mm, which is 73 grams, and she has no problem with weight.

what's your point with this example? I can solve a 100g cube in 47 seconds which is not really a speedsolve at all and 73g is pretty light anyway so ofc she would have no problem with its weight. If you show me someone solving a 150g cube in 10 seconds then your example makes more sense

A couple of people have gotten 3s on the Rubik’s Connected, which is 112 grams.

M slices are easy on my YJ MGC 5x5 but it is probably harder on nonmags as you say.

i mean its probably a 4 if it were stackmatted buts that really fast anyway.
I personally think that true speedsolves need to be stackmatted, and solving a 3x3 from the start while in your hands is kinda cheating, so i add +0.3 seconds from cube pickup and solve to make it look reaslistic.


anyway lets move onto another argument, a modern rubiks brand is not that bad, sure it doesnt cornercut well but it could be used for speedsolving, and maybe it could be even better than some speedcubes if it were lubed or something like that.
