5x5x5 parity and must know 5x5x5 algs to solve the 5x5x5 well

You only need to know the regular parity alg (just not lucasparity), and you could learn some last 2 edges cases, but you can solve those with just slice flip slice backs and the parity alg if necessary. I average 2:30 and I don't know a single one of them, so you can get by without them.

also you may want to use a commutator for the last 2 centers, just look it up on YouTube, it's really simple. Just a niklas but using different slice moves.

I don't like the normal r2 B2 parity. I know I don't need L2E algs; however there must be one or two that are commonly seen and really beneficial to know. I do use commutators of L2C I was referring more to L2E. Sorry for not being clear. I appreciate your response though.

But I would still like a fast 5x5x5 parity alg and maybe the most benefical L2E algs for the most common cases.

What alg do people use for the 7x7 edge case where only 2 inner edges are swapped? I currently use r2 B2..... With only the inner slices, but it's quite slow.

What JA perm is easiest/flows the best? i currently use R U R' U F U F' U' R U2 R' U F U F' U' what one do you think is easiest? Also, am i the only one who uses this one?

 

[CyanSandwich]

The only one I know is R' U L' U2 R U' R' U2 R L U'

I think that's what most people use. Your one looks really hard to execute

 

[TomTom]

as a 36 second solver, getting a JA perm cuts down between 6-8 seconds because i use 2 look, i've tried the one you said, and i find that it doesn't flow properly for me, with mine, you just need to find a good way to execute the F turns

 

[rebucato314]

Try this:

(U') L’ U’ L F L’ U’ L U L F’ L2 U L U

Basically the mirror of J(b) perm. It is easy to execute.

i like this one (bar on left)

x U2 r' U' r U2 l' U R' U' R2

 

[Cubeologist]

See if you like this one.

 

[TomTom]

i'll memorize that and see how it compares, thanks

@Cubeologist the reason i use the one i currently use, is because i am terrible with any rotations like that, thanks though. i'll check you out and subscribe

F U' R' F R2 U' R' U' R U R' F' R U R' F' is good too.

algdb.net is a very useful website for finding algs.

 

[Tao Yu]

i like this one (bar on left)

x U2 r' U' r U2 l' U R' U' R2

I've always liked the inverse of that better: x R2' F R F' R U2' r' U r U2' x'.
Saves a regrip I think.

z D' R U' R2' D R' D' R2 U D R' z'

 

[tomatotrucks]

(L U' R' U) L' U2 (R U' R' U2 R)

3 Gen, the last bit flows brilliantly and fast-ly. I find it to be very under rated.

 

[notfeliks]

(L U' R' U) L' (R U' R' U2 R)

Does not work.

L' U R' z R2 U R' U' R2 U D

 

[Chree]

R' U2 R U R' U2 L U' R U L'

Though I normally just do left mirror of Jb in solves. Just didn't see anyone post this yet.

From front left it would look like:
L' U2 L U L' U2 R U' L U R'

 

[CuberM]

Go on crazybadcuber's pll tutorial, his algorithms are the best. the J(a) perm is one of my fastest algorithms to execute.

how do threads like these get to 2 pages
there already are tons of threads like this when there's one that's made specifically so I don't see these on the home page

Request-an-Alg Thread next time plz
