Your ideal OLL + PLL pair

[ajmorgan25]

What is your ideal OLL and PLL pair when you're solving the cube? As of now, which I'm sure it will change is an Anti-Sune followed by a 3-cycle edges (CCW).

The reason I say it might change is because I haven't learned all of the OLLs yet and I just finished the PLLs around 2 weeks ago so I don't have the execution of them as fast as I'd like.

 

[Cerberus]

OLL one of the T patterns, PLL clockwise A counter-clockwise U J:b or T all of them are prette fast

 

[Lt-UnReaL]

OLL: FRUR'U'F'
PLL: U
7 moves is ideal to me

 

[ExoCorsair]

Anti-sune + clockwise U.

 

[shelley]

OLL skip and PLL skip

Seriously though, one of the 6 move OLLs (F R U R' U' F' and variants) followed by a U perm. One of the R perms (but not its mirror image) is also good.

More interesting question: what's your least ideal OLL + PLL combo? Mine would be the OLL that I got in this video followed by an F, N or E perm.

 

[Lucas Garron]

I'll answer with CLS / PLL

R'URU2'R'UR + R2U'R'U'RURURU'R
Tried it just once and got sub-2.

My worst would be either I0, I6, or I7 (or mirror) followed by N.
Those algs are just really long.

For OH, RU'R'U'RU2'R' + RU'R/R2U'R' U-perm are probably best.

Anti Sune, Sune, both T's, H, Pi, good lightning bolt, big lightning bolt, any of the four P's, any one with edges oriented + any U, T, any J, Z, H, any A, one of the R's. I have a lot of favorites.

 

[fanwuq]

OLL:
Sune, Antisune, their double layer equivalent. 6-move, part of T perm. For execution. Recognition--sune, either T's
PLL: U ccw, Ucw, T, H, Z, A ccw, Acw
Recognition: Us, T, H.
Overall: sune or T's + Uccw.

 

[Lofty]

OLL: R' U' R U' R' U2 R
PLL: R2 U' R' U' R U R U R U' R
Same as Lucas.
Easy sub-3 OH LL. 2.57 best but no time taken for recognition or U adjusts.

 

[Swordsman Kirby]

I hate LL: there are no good cases for me.

But if I had to choose, F U R U' R' F' with one of the J-perms. For Shelley's question... accidentally getting a 4-edge orientation algorithm + one of the N perms.

 

[Dene]

I'd say left handed Sune (L' U' L U' L' U2 L) followed by an anti-clockwise U (performed left handed as L U' L U L U L U' L' U' L2)

 

[Lotsofsloths]

Hmm..
I'll think about this.
Here is my dream case:


Set Up: U(cw) + Sune

Solve: Anti-Sune + U(ccw)

But a more realistic case...

Set Up: R' U R U' R2' F' U' F U R F R' F' R2 U' R' U' F R' F' R U R

Solve: R' U' R' F R F' U R R' U R U' R2' F' U' F U R F R' F' R2 U'

 

[Lucas Garron]

OLL: R' U' R U' R' U2 R
PLL: R2 U' R' U' R U R U R U' R
Same as Lucas.

Nope.

 

[Lofty]

OLL: R' U' R U' R' U2 R
PLL: R2 U' R' U' R U R U R U' R
Same as Lucas.

Nope.

OH?

 

[Jai]

OLL: Sune (sub 0.5)
PLL: H Perm (sub 1)

= Easily sub-2

 

[FU]

I have a few favourites for both OLL and PLL each... they are very close in terms of timings

OLL (sub-1 usually)
2 Ts, F R U' R' U' R U R' F', Anti-Sune

PLL (sub-1.5 usually)
2 Us, H, J(b)

Without AUF (that means minimal recognition time), LL should be sub-3 for any combination of these cases.

 

[shadowpartner]

i would choose,Sune and followed by H perm

 

[Chris]

OLL: Sune
PLL: J or T perm

 

[pcharles93]

Best LL combo: Anti-sune + R perm preferably right-handed

Worst: One of the keima OLL's that turns into the headlights facing forward when FRUR'U'F' is applied. E perm, I don't have many bad PLL's. Just that one I can't get used to.

 

[MasakitChan]

Sune/Anti-sune, 6 move T OLL + Ua/Ub/T Perm.
