ZZ-CT Progression Thread

[LBr]

I've started learning TTLL+ in full.

whats that?

 

[Swagrid]

whats that?

TTLL with two misoriented corners, one being in the D layer and the other being the one that belongs in the D layer. The +/- just denotes the direction they are twisted in.

 

[Swagrid]

Putting progress on the backbench for a while. Won't focus on getting faster.

I'm not back, not yet. This solve elicited a flurry of emotions. 3.4 TPS??? I suck. 35stm???? I'm a god.

First sub 10 CT user soon

 

[Swagrid]

First sub 10 CT user soon

Sub 10 probably not, sub CT, maybe.

As for right now, I seem to be sub 12 though.

 

[Swagrid]

I've still been on and off working through TTLL+, and I'm just over halfway through. Unfortunately, due to college starting a few weeks ago, I have far less free time.

Remind me what TSLE and TTLL was? And how much algs there are.

 

[Swagrid]

Remind me what TSLE and TTLL was?

TSLE - insert the last F2L edge while orienting the 5 remaining corners

TTLL - Permute everything

ColorfulPockets was "comfortably sub-13" and I'm 100% past that point now. The only other CT solver that was relatively high-profile within the community was Chris Tran himself. The most recent video we have of him solving is from a few months back where he does about 40-50ish solves and averaged 11.55. This AO100 is sub-Chris Tran. If I can get this to be global I may just be the fastest active CTer

I always believed you!

I like zz-ct,this is a good slove,I think zz-ct is easier than zz-a,zz-ct alg(190）<zz-a alg（470）
