What parts of your solving style are you proud of?

[Johan444]

Proud of:
-Using u-turns and D-turns effectively during cross in CFOP
-R2 instead of R2'-turns to pair up F2L-pairs in the U-layer
-My lettering memo "method" for corners

Not proud of:
-Lack of tricks during F2L
-My fingers feels clumsy during solves, cannot control the cube properly

 

[Genesis]

Proud of
-Blockbuilding F2L
Not proud of
-Lack of look ahead

 

[5BLD]

Proud of:
Turn slow and smooth.
Optimise my solutions (most of the time!)
My M slice fingertricks which I use fairly effectively.
My weird angle for Roux table abuse in one handed
Heavy use of weird tricks like E moves or Fw Bw, wide turns in general.
And S moves.
I always go for the most efficient way, even using non matching blocks on occasions.
Rarely use cube rotations.

Not proud of:
When I get fingertricky solutions, where it would be much faster to do fast fingertricks than optimise, I can't exploit them well due to slow turning.
I can't execute algorithms fast. My CMLL takes three seconds on average.
My LSE is generally locky because I turn too fast. I simply need to work on actual turning in general; my lookahead and optimisation is fairly good.
Too many F or B or S or E etc turns is not especially fast to execute so that could be a bad thing too.

Edit: wow I didnt expect my post to be that long :/

 

[AndreasFrom]

Proud of:
Lookahead with CFOP
Getting 20 seconds nonlucky single with CFOP after not using it for ~3 months (kinda off-topic...)
Forcing skips -skills

Not proud of:
Bad lookahead with blockbuilding methods
Sometimes overcomplicated crosses

 

[spyr0th3dr4g0n]

Proud --
Fairly quick learning of new concepts
Being able to find a new alg for something nearly every time I mess one up, and then forgetting it after the solve

Not Proud --
Being unable to turn the cube fast at all
Not doing well throughout the whole solve if my cross takes too long

 

[emolover]

Proud of my fast speed and TPS.

Not proud of my shotty look ahead.

Average 16.

 

[waffle=ijm]

Proud of TPS and lookahead

Not Proud that I suck at M slices (lol irony)

 

[Sa967St]

Lookahead and stuff.

I dont see how you are bad at them.

 

[Thompson]

Proud of: Fast and sloppy turning style.
Not Proud of nothing

 

[aaronb]

To be honest, I am proud of little, minus being sub-20, but that is not part of the solve.

I have an inefficient cross + F2L and have a slow OLL and PLL. I guess I must look ahead pretty well, to be sub-20 considering I am slow at my algorithms and am inefficient.

 

[cuberkid10]

Cross on top.

 

[somerandomkidmike]

I'm proud of my sloppy fingertricks, slow turning, and bad look ahead.
I'm not proud of my 13.34 average 10 of 12.

 

[Phlippieskezer]

Average: 15 - 16

Proud:
My solves' fluidity.
My fairly efficient solutions (for speedsolves; I don't do FMC).
The ability to compromise during solutions, rather quickly (when I feel like solving by layers, I just use FreeOP, and I don't like being too systematic). Especially helps during hard cases.

Not proud:
Fail TPS.
Occasional pausing, especially in my second block.
I suck at executing algorithms; my CMLL is my second-slowest part of my solve (next to second block).
Somewhat poor lookahead, unless I turn really slowly. This is mainly why my second block sucks.
Often too lazy to practice.

P.S.
It's not really that I'm "Proud" or "not proud" on these aspects, it's just I'm most satisfied with them relative to the other parts of my solving.

 

[Andreaillest]

My TPS isn't too bad.

Not Proud:
Look Ahead
Recognition
My choppy style.

 

[Jorghi]

Proud of...? Improving.

 

[drewsopchak]

Fingertricks, tps, and lookahead.

 

[uberCuber]

Proud of: Edge pairing

Not proud of: Centers

 

[Ryanrex116]

Proud of: High TPS, and slightly better lookahead than before.

Not Proud of: Movecount. I'm doing an experiment, and it seems I'm around 70 normally: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...GZKVnduNkNnQkEtWjBRWFc1dG9vMUE&hl=en_US#gid=1

You need to switch the X and Y axises of that graph
