The "Request an Alg" Thread

[Lazy Einstein]

Fastest isn't always easy to learn

Z: R L' U' L U L R L' R
H: skip them

Seriously do this. Kennan even explains how to do it here.

Hi
I want Better alg Instead of ...L2 U2 L' U2 L U2 R'U2 L U2 R!?? (EG-2)

I'm not useing a super advance method. I'm useing Monkydude1313's Sledge method with an additional u-perm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5xYFkMllOw

Did you even watch the link I sent you? Nothing hard about it. You do not need to be using Sarah's Advanced to know the 2 cases that cause a H perm.
The only thing you would have to learn is a 2nd alg the hedgeslammer. The inverse of the alg you know.
When opposite center colours match the bottom edge colours, you either H y2 S or S y2 H to avoid your H.

That is pretty much the best Z unless you want to give the 27 alg Z a shot.

If you don't want to learn either of those then on H and Z perm put the solve sides on the L and R face and perform your alg y2 alg again and you will reduce to a U perm

Has anyone compiled a list of 1LLL algs with a solved 1x1x3 block?

Has anyone compiled a list of 1LLL algs with a solved 1x1x3 block?

I was also wondering this, but instead with a 1x1x2 block as well. Could be an interesting way to "phase"

actually, I'll try my hand at some math to see how many 1x1x3 bar cases there are:

So for ZBLLs, there would be 10 cases.
6 2GLL, for the Ua and Ub T and U cases, then the puretwist cases.
then there is the F perm T and U, J perm T and U, and L perm T and U.

then there are 6 OLLs that could facilitate a 1x1x3 block, so theres 60 algs there, plus the 10, so there should be 70 algs. I might be doing the math wrong for the angelfish and H cases though.

That's going to be a ton of algs, I doubt it would be less than ZBLL.

This case has been bothering me, so I'm looking for algs for it. If this case is in the BR and I want to insert it into the FR, how would you guys do that? Specifically looking for rotationless or M-slice agls. thanks again.

For that case I use R U R' U' x3.

 

[TDM]

For that case I use R U R' U' x3.

If you mean the case set up with R U R' L U L' U' R U' R', then:
[U2] R2 u R2 u' R2

I think the alg you gave is for the same case, but moving it from the "BL" to the "FR". I need one for the "BR" to "FR". thanks for the help though.

I would do U' L U' L' R' U R then insert with either F R' F' R or d L' U L

 

[Artic]

U' R U R' F' U' R' U R F

thanks! that one is sweet. For the symmetric case on the left side, would you just apply the same symmetric left handed moves. Or would you do something else? My left hand is definitely not as nimble.

 

[obelisk477]

4x4 oll parity alg with edge flipped between corners on chameleon (oll 24) that completely orients top layer

Oh sorry. I prefer to look at images to reading text, because I'm less likely to read something incorrectly like that.

no worries. Your alg was still useful. Did you also have an alg for the case I mentioned? I'm curious...how do you handle it when you come across it?

Well no I wouldn't. And I probably wouldn't use the one I posted too unless I really couldn't find the other pair.

It's better to develop your ordering and lookahead than to use tricks like these. What I mean by that is that, for the most part, it would be better to just solve the other pair and track this one. Although for getting really fast these cases are good to have at your disposal.
