@@hat_cbw6972 Jokes aside, contrary to the rumors about his mom, Yiheng apparently only cubes about an hour per day, seriously, which is insane. Feliks Zemdegs was the same. While he admitted he had occasional days where he cubed for hours, especially early on, he only cubed about 30 minutes to an hour per day while having a full world record sweep of 3x3 to 7x7, averages and singles, for years. The top ten was always shifting but he was always number one. Makes you wonder how good he might have been if he practiced a crap ton, like Tymon. Maybe they're just built differently but I suspect consistency is key. Feliks might have rarely practiced more than an hour, but that hour DID occur every single day. That makes sense to me. Not to brag so much as to reinforce the idea, but I happen to be what the vast majority of successful guitarists would consider an extremely elite guitarist, at least in terms of shreddy technical prowess even if my musical style wasn't for them. In cubing terms you could probably compare me to someone with a really low 5 average. I've now played for 25 years but 75% of my dexterity was built in the first three years. Kind of like how it's not that uncommon for cubers to get sub-20 in the first year but to require another year for sub-15, then a year for a single second off. Back when practice yielded such fast results, I played about 8 hours per day, but as practice becomes less rewarding so does the will to do it. As a kid I never thought I would go a day in my life not having even touched a guitar. I wouldn't have believed myself if I came from the future and said a time would come that I didn't for two weeks. Here's the point of all this: Turns out developing a high level skill is not at all like riding a bike, and you not only lose skill but will rapidly. The first time I tried playing after just a two week break, it was like back when I'd been playing for just two years, good but nowhere even close to my max ability, not by years. I tried to correct the problem by brute force practice for like 12 hours and I only got a little better. But as soon as I had played at least a while for about 5 days straight, it kicked back in. These days there's not really much more for me to learn so I only practice as much as a hobbyist, but that's what I have to do to maintain my level. I know that's more like "remembering skill" than developing it, but it sometimes makes me wonder if I would have been roughly exactly as good without the 8 hour days, so long as it was everyday like it was. So it's possible Yiheng's secret isn't that he practices longer, but that he never, ever, fails to get that hour or so. It's kind of like time off straight up deletes some total practice time instead of pausing it. But it's also possible he's in a situation like I am on guitar. Where at his level, he knows it could take years and years to get much noticably better, but also knows if he doesn't practice he'll get rusty and lose comps. But it's possible it was just former extreme practice too. A common claim I see from people at the top of almost anything is, "All day? Haha, no. I'm lazy. You probably _____ more than me yourself. Well... I mean, to be fair, I guess it kind of was my whole life at one point, but that was when I was a kid."

@@flashraylaser157 Interesting comment. Right now I'm training for sprinting and there was a phase where I had no drive to practice. I acknowledged the issue and I identified the problem to be like a lack of direction or like my routine wasn't yielding as much results anymore. Just right after that, I broke down the parts that I actually needed to practice, and it exposed so many paths that I spent like 12 hours of the day training. I just couldn't get enough of it after that because there was always something to work towards to, and something to improve on. Been a month after that day and I'm still on the same boat. Tbh I think I can go for years like this if I control everything well and make sure I don't get injured. Well that's the goal at least. Imma snap back to reality now (do my chores and stuff).

@@Nw_Cubes Jokes aside, Yiheng would likely be an incredible blind solver and I suspect it's what he'll focus on when he's older and newer Chinese kids from similar programs are faster than him at 3x3. The fact is he can memorize the positions and orientation of 12 separate pieces and assemble the first two layers blind with advanced CFOP as the cube dynamically changes. That is unreal, not how blind solving works at all. He also seems to be able to predict PLL from looking at OLL. That means if he does happen to get a solve he's confident on what the OLL will be from his plans for F2L, he can potentially predict the PLL in inspection as well. He doesn't have to be able to do this often. All he has to do is manage to once and the single will forever belong to him until someone else can use conventional methods but blind. As for bigger cubes, he'll use standard blind methods, but someone who can memorize a 3x3 cube so well they can mentally see it turn and update their mental view of the cube as the situation updates would likely find merely memorizing a 5x5x5 and using a blind method child's play. I'm pretty good at memorizing hundreds of pieces of information, but it's way harder to memorize even just 20 so well that it's like your eyes are open. Given that he's basically there, he might be trouble for blind solving in the future. He'll probably at least eventually snag the blind 3x3 single, even if it's just one record like when Feliks randomly took the blind 4x4 single.

@flashraylaser1572 ай бұрын
Actually, yeah. Imagine how bad it would suck to have worked as hard has Zayn as at 2x2 only to have the first sub-1 snatched at the last minute. I'm happy for Zayn. He got his payoff just in time, even if he never holds the record again. The 2x2 record will gradually change for decades to come. If the day comes that ten people have passed Yiheng, some newer cubers won't think much of his old records, but Zayn will forever be who broke that last second barrier. Kind of like how Feliks will also be who broke so many 3x3 barriers first. He's now like 15th place but still a bigger name than everyone faster, solely because of how much he did first, how much he proved was possible before anyone else. I think it's kind of how Tymon feels about Pyraminx. He used to be THE pyraminx guy, not known for 3x3. He broke the last barrier and then someone else did and beat him on the very same day. Tymon said he wouldn't want to trade places because the average record holder is gonna change a million times but the first person to do something doesn't change, ever. At that point he didn't even seem to care as much about pyraminx and moved onto maining 3x3

It'll happen eventually with enough skill and luck. By luck I don't mean just the scramble itself but also what becomes of the cube as a consequence of your turns, but that wasn't consciously planned. Back in 2013 or so, when I averaged about 2:45 on 4x4, I got this crazy outlier solve that was barely over a minute, unreal PB. And other than that one center was done, it didn't look easy or half done or something. It was just that every edge pair I made was magically forming others although by accident. Ever had a 3x3 solve where every pair set up the next one, unplanned, making F2L basically free? It was kind of like that but with darn near every edge. If someone like Max Park ran into that kind of edge pairing luck, had no parity, and got a particularly good 3x3 case, a sub-10 could happen. Alternatively someone could get so good that they can intentionally setup perfect cascading edge formation like that. Given that Yiheng can darn near blind solve a 3x3 with CFOP, he might possess such spatial awareness. We'll see as he ages and his hands grow.

I feel kind of bad for Max Park. Feliks Zemdegs once held the record, single and average, for 3x3 through 7x7 and OH as well. Max Park's professed dream was to become the second person to ever do that. He came so close but events in one-handed, Du's ahead of its time 3x3 single, Nahm snatching a 6x6 record, and OH solvers always kept him at least one record short. He was always capable of beating whatever record though. Not anymore. He is never gonna beat Yiheng at 3x3 average now. Feliks will likely forever be the only one who did that. But there's a chance that as Yiheng's hands grow, he'll conquer the big cubes fast enough to pull it off before some new little kid takes 3x3 from him in his late teens or early 20s. If he pulls it off, he can truly say he's the first person to simultaneously hold literally all sighted cubic events, because Feliks skipped out on 2x2. I fully believe Feliks could have had 2x2 as well but he didn't even like the event and felt its records would always be a matter of luck, not who was best. And he was kinda right until people like Zayn and Yiheng proved you CAN consistently dominate the event with practice.
