ZZ-Slice is a ZZ variant invented by Matilda Teixeira. It is inspired by a method made in the January 2021 Method Development Competition.
Contents
Steps
- EOSlice: Edges are oriented, while a line consisting of the DL and DR edges is formed.
- Pseudo F2B: The first two blocks (F2L, but missing the DF and DB edge) are built without regard to Corner Permutation.
- OCLL: The corners on the last layer are oriented.
- L6EP: The last six edges are permuted.
- CPBL: The corners on U and D are permuted using one algorithm.
Variants
Beginners
The pseudo F2B is built using Keyhole, while CPBL is replaced with CPLL, a parity alg (if parity comes up), x2 (or z2) and CPLL again.
Roux variant
- Pseudo F2B: The first two blocks (F2L, but missing the DF and DB edge) are solved like in Roux, but without regard to Corner Permutation.
- OCLL: The corners on the last layer are oriented.
- LSE: The last six edges are solved like in Roux.
- CPBL: The corners on U and D are permuted using one algorithm.
Pros
Cons
- Relatively high movecount (65-75 moves).
- The Edge Orientation step may be hard to get used to for beginners.
