ok thanks. can you please explain 4 look to me? ive heard of 2 look to. what are they? and can you please give me a link to them? thankyou!!!!

4 look means doing the last layer in 4 looks (the orientation of the last layer using two algorithms, followed by the permutation of the last layer using two algorithms) you can find both of these with a search on youtube.

 

[Raiz]

thanks man! so is 2 look better then?

 

[RyanReese09]

Yep. You finish it in 2 steps, not 4. Much faster. But it has many more algs to learn. You can use 3 look and get sub10.

 

[Raiz]

ok. i have 2 look algs from badmiphesto. should i just learn that cuz i def. want sub 10

 

[Erzz]

I'd like to add that if you tried to learn 2 look or even 3 look in the two weeks til the competition, you would likely suffer recall errors as well as your algorithms not being as fast.

 

[Raiz]

are you saying i wont be able to reconize the algs as fast or wont be able to execute them as fast?

 

[uberCuber]

both.

 

[Raiz]

ok. do you think ill be able to learn 2 look by september?

 

[uberCuber]

yes definitely

 

[Raiz]

ok thanks. and do you have any tips for f2l? i need to do it faster, i need to stop doing so many Y and Y' turns. i also know some f2l algs

 

[Rpotts]

this thread has some good f2l help http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?25764-F2L-help

 

[Raiz]

thanks. apreciated greatly.

Though I hate to point to something that contains algs when you still have almost all the OLLs and PLLs to learn, this is something truly worth storing somewhere. If you click on "Podstawowe" underneath "standardowe" you will see an alg for each of the 4 rotations, for every single one of the 42 standard F2L cases. Then the other links underneath Podstawowe contain multi-slotting tricks (solving more than one pair at once), tricks to take advantage of when you have an empty slot, and JEFF2L, which I still have yet to figure out what it actually is but seems to contain some cool stuff (it seems to be for when one or more pieces is in the wrong slot)
The site also contains a ton of last layer-influencing algs, and alternate approaches to last slot + last layer.

Certainly don't start trying to devour a bunch of this right now, but like I said, it's worth storing somewhere to look at when you are ready. Of course it couldn't hurt to look at algs for a few cases that you might be having a particular amount of trouble with.

[Raiz]

ok thanks. but i wa looking for more of a way to do it faster. im not really ntrested in the algs now.

 

[Raiz]

never mind i read your ost wrong sorry

Which COLL set is easier? U or L?

 

[ilikecubing]

L is easier

 

[Rpotts]

L is really easy, 1 OLL, 1 inverse of another OLL, 2 comms, pure (i just use two sunes) and diag which I use another OLL with 2 wide turns. It's the only set i know full COLL for.

Same here,do you use it in all your speedsolves where you get an L case?
