I haven’t seen one of these threads yet, that’s why I decided to make one. As the name suggests, this thread is all about practice drills! From discussing them to coming up with new ones, all of that you can do here.
For example, I recently stumbled across this drill:
  • First, hand-scramble the cube and solve the cross.
  • Then, you use a metronome and set it to about 50-80bpm.
  • Now, do one turn for every beat the metronome does and solve f2l this way.
  • If you miss a beat, scramble the cube and try again or lower the bpm.
  • Once you are comfortable at a bpm level, you can raise it.
This helps to reduce pauses and improves lookahead, and I think it is quite a fun drill. What do you think?

Seems like a good drill I’ll try it
