Which axis do you use for big cube edge pairing?

[marvin2699]

just wondering what is the most common way to edge pair

 

[TheNextFeliks]

First. I do e-slice pairing.

2332 and E-slice.

 

[Yuxuibbs]

E slice pairing

323 for 4x4, free slice for anything bigger

 

[waffle=ijm]

both. E to place into the top and the M to place on Bottom (which becomes L or R). Because I don't like placing edges in the bottom and rotations.

 

[Sa967St]

Always vertical. M is fun.

 

[TheNextFeliks]

S slice. No one does this. Why?

 

[antoineccantin]

S slice. No one does this. Why?

Way too awkward.

 

[Meep]

Primarily E, but I sometimes use M for last 4 edges.

 

[TheZenith27]

E, but M for last 4 on 5x5+

 

[TiLiMayor]

Most of the time on the E slice, although I find myself doing stuff like z (234whatever)R z' instead of just turning the upper layers..

 

[TheNextFeliks]

Primarily E, but I sometimes use M for last 4 edges.

Oh. This is what I use.

 

[blackzabbathfan]

For the first 3 cross edges in Yau I pair on the M slice, I pair the rest on the E slice.

 

[cannon4747]

I normally use Y for 5x5 and up, but 4x4 I'll do yau method and primarily use M but also do Z rotations to make it Y if the finger trick is better.

 

[uberCuber]

M-slice for almost everything. But of course I use E slice for 4x4 Yau L8E. I also occasionally use E-slice for 5x5 L4E if I notice that it's really easy.

 

[LNZ]

I only use the U and D layers. but on 4x4, I use the method of getting 2 or 3 edges paired at the same time.

Sometimes on 6x6+, I would need two runs to fully solve an edge.

 

[cubernya]

Mainly E, probably 1/20 on M (just if it happens to fall in place)...if I do yau then 4 on M 8 on E

 

[Renslay]

M slice for Reduction on 5x5x5 (and bigger).
E slice for Hoya on 4x4x4.

 

[ottozing]

E slice for everything ever. I'm so awesome.

EDIT: Actually I'm not totally boring. For L4E on 6x6>11x11 I use M slice for the most part.

Mostly E, but some M too
