Beginners blocks V2 method Information about the method Proposer(s): Tarun Proposed: unknown Alt Names: none Variants: Sexy Method, MirIS, Y-Move Method Beginners blocks No. Steps: 6 No. Algs: 11 to 12 Avg Moves: 87 Purpose(s): Beginner method

Scrambled cube -> 2X2 block -> DFDR -> CP(on full cube -> RF2L+EO -> OCLL+EPLL -> Solved cube The Beginners blocks V2 is a 3x3x3 beginner method.

The Beginners blocks V2 is a 3x3x3 beginner method invented by Tarun. It is similar to beginners blocks but having lower movecount count and more algs

Procedure

2X2 block Solve the Block (intuitive) Use the 2X2 block step to have the 2X2 block cube state.

DFDRSolve 2 Edges on the Down front and Down right edges Use the DFDR step to have the X cross cube state

CP(on full cube) permute all the corners

EORF2Lorient remaining edges and solve the rest of F2L]]===

OCLL+ EPLL Solve the cube using the last layer]]===

Tutorial

Solve a 2X2 block by solving a 1X2X2 block also called a square on the bottom and solve the E layer edge to solve the 2X2 block

Next solve the DFDR edges aka put the block at the back and solve the DF and Dr edges with intuition

Next solve CP on whole cube instead of white side only this is one of the main differences over beginners blocks

Next solve EO and RF2L using these steps

solve EO:

Then solve the pairs using Keyhole

Next solve OCLL and EPLL cause we already permuted corners so we can do EPLL

Advantages and disadvantages over layer by layer and Beginners blocks

Move count layer by layer 120 Beginners blocks 96 Beginners blocks V2 87

Algs layer by layer 5 Beginners blocks 7 Beginners blocks V2 12

Concepts learned

Layer by layer cross Beginners blocks EO blockbuilding Beginners blocks V2 EO block building and Corner permutation

Summarization of the method

Make a 2X2 block by solving a square on the bottom and the E layer edge

Then put the block in the back solve Down front and Down right edges

Then solve CP on the whole cube

EORF2L solve EO and last F2L pairs using Keyhole

OCLL+EPLl just use the 12 algs
