The Dayan GuHong to end it all!

I like my Shelly-comic-provoking hybrid.

I'll have to see some reviews before I make any decisions :D

The title kind of reminded me of Lord of the Rings XD

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

Simply stated: It isn't crap, it's a very good cube. There will still be tons of f-ii vs av/memory vs guhong threads of course, lots of people are now used to the slightly smaller size of av/fii. The guhong goes back to full size + more blocky feeling rather than rounded/bubbly. I prefer it simply because I have gotten very used to tiles over the years and like that it's full size so tiles fit perfectly again.

My avs: Pretty good.
My memorys: Great.
My guhongs: Also great.
My f-iis: Not here yet.

:)
 
wow, I'm totally not excited to get this. I mean, sure it can cut corners well and do it backwards too, but who really leaves a 37+ degree turn before making another one? (really, do a regular speedsolve and see how many times you actually need to go beyond 37 degrees) Unless it's just to show off how well it can cut corners, I feel like it's extreme corner cutting ability is just not needed.

and blah blah blah about lockups, just turn more accurately, it's not that hard...unless you're lazy...then if you're lazy you won't take the effort to turn better.

I think this cube is rushed just like the gigaminx and it looks like crap.

I agree completely.

my opinion on cubes.
They really dont matter all that much...
anyone can adjust to any cube pretty easy...

Kinda hope it's not that great since i just purchased an F-II. Just got it today actually... Pretty good but it locks up a tiny big. Maybe i need to break it in more/get used to it/get better. We'll see.
 
my personal opinion on this cube:

it seems that there are a lot of surface area on the cubies contacting each other, which makes the cube slow. But the small size of the inner circle compared to the total size of the layer allows the cube to have more torque.

The cube should take little effort to turn because of the size ratio between the square and the circle, but the large amount of surface area makes the cube stop quicker when you are not exerting force on the cube.

Therefore it would be a good 2H cube, because of the torque and that it doesn't overshoot as much, but not a good OH cube because it stops easily.

As I stated I don't have the f-iis yet (I ordered 4 of them). I was under the impression they were smaller sized like the av. It's great news for me that they're not. (I like full sized cubes for tiles)

People who don't have one and say it's great are bad, but no worse are those of you who say it seems like crap when you also don't have one.

It's a good cube, the av/memory may be a bit faster but overall it's anything but 'crap'.
 
To me, the F-IIs are incredibly overhyped and exagurrated.
Nothing beats the YJ 3x3 as fasr as corner cutting goes. I have yet to see a single cube be more smooth or cut corners better than YJs.

... All of those statements are false.
One, YJs suck at cutting. Two, F-IIs are amazing. Three, F-IIs and A-Vs are much better than YJs.

Oh cool, opinions can be false now
Why don't we get rid of verbs while we're at it.
