@Brian McEntee #21 So its pretty short to learn. It takes about a week if you know the tperm (adjacent corner swap) and the yperm (diagonal corner swap.) I would say the best way to learn is to just keep going back and forth between the algs to solve. If you want to get really fast, learn full cll or if you are super determined learn full e.g.

[@queckblank4544]

@Brian McEntee #21 Good luck!

[@queckblank4544]

@Brian McEntee #21 O wait I forgot, cll and eg will take a much longer time to learn than ortega as the alg move count and the number algs of them is much larger. I have been learning cll for about 2 months and I only have learned 29 algs, so it is very hard.

J-perm: You should know this T-perm from 3x3 Me: *cries in 2-look CFOP*

[@o_p0tterhead]

Hi! The first step in 2look PLL has got two algorithms - one with the corners being with opposite colours (so blue-green and orange-red if you solve on white) and one with the corners' colours being adjacent with headlights. If you have learned 2look CFOP from J Perm's videos, you'll see that the latter is in fact a T perm! (The first case btw uses a Y perm.)

[@chinub]

MAAAAAN.... I also only know 4LLL . All the OLLs are the same as here and at then we learn Tperm, Yperms and Both Uperms

2x2 is so satisfying to turn... I got one for christmas and its super fast. This tutorial got me to solve it super fast in only 2 days.

[@edwardangeler9839]

3:00 for this there is also a shorter and more fitting alg for 2x2: R U´ R´ U´ F2 U´ R U R´ U F2

Thank you J perm, this tutorial was really helpful 👍

[@Jade-g6k]

Personally I tried to watch other tutorials on this but they didn’t explain it too well or went to fast. Jperm went at a perfect pace and explained it perfectly and even told us what our objective was. (Solve the most solved side, oll. Solve the rest with one algorithm.) thank you for posting this video and allowing me to understand it easily.

For last layer (The 2 corner swap) PLL, instead of a T perm actually J perm works and I think it’s better because J perm has a shorter and easier algorithm than a t perm in my opinion

[@郭凤-s5q]

Agreed 😎

[@cuberinacube9353]

Is there an algorithm for when the bar is at the bottom, but the top is diagonal? It's really annoying flipping the cube every time I get that case

[@TurkiElxer]

Same I need one too.

[@shanitasarwar76]

Thank you so much J Perm, the algs were so easy!

[@TheSlickCuber]

R' U R' F2 R F' R with the bar on top in the back and no bars on the bottom is wayyyy easier than that double regrip alg where you put the bar in the front. Start with your right hand thumb on top/fingers on bottom and you literally have 0 regrips (use your right thumb for the F' at the end).

[@AdamGaskins]

You can do the alg in the video without regripping (R U' R F2 R' U R'). Start with your right thumb on bottom, and when you get to F2 your thumb should be on the bottom, and you can use your ring finger/pinky to do the F2. In any case I will still be stealing the algorithm you posted for the case when the bar is in the back so I don't have to do a U2, thanks! :^)

[@bramgp8921]

i use a different tperm and different diagonal perm. I thought i had to learn 5 more algs for PBL but now i only have to learn 3 :D. 😁

[@hanselthecaretaker]

I remember seeing a video where someone solved a 2x2 by just doing the same pattern over and over until it eventually solved. That’s the only one that doesn’t make my brain go derp from the checklist plethora of “if>then” possibilities.

Oll is actually sort of the same as 3x3 oll. It is just the corners though (example: 1 corner up can be the sune algorithm for 3x3) For pll, if you know beginner pll then you know some pbl since when you have a block at the top and a layer at the bottom, it is actually t perm because the block is a headlight. You should know these if you know beginner cfop.

[@YTCarGuy]

for the T perm case you could do a variation of a Ja perm; R' F R F' R U2' R' U R U2' R' This algorithm is a lot faster and shorter than T perm, but it might be hard to get used to doing

[@wyattwyatt4126]

1:13 Or you can do F ( R U' R' U' ) ( R U R' F' ) 2:07 If the bars are at the back, you can just do R2 U' R2' U2' F2 U' R2 2:27 I prefer doing something like R U' l D2' R' U l' ( cube rotation while doing R to avoid regrip ) If the bar is on the bottom, take it in front of you and just do L D' L F2 L' D L' 2:40 I also prefer taking the bar in the front and doing the Ja perm : R' U L' U2 ( R U' R' U2 ) ( R l or Cube rotation while doing R2 ) 2:54 Instead ( R U' R' U' ) F2 U' ( R U R' U ) F2 is better I hope it could help you, just find the good fingertricks 😉

2:41 you can just do a J perm it’s a lot quicker

again, not gonna watch these videos because I wanna learn it myself when I get one.. feelsbadman... also, do you have any tips on how to find your ideal setup?? like the right tensions and feel? I keep overshooting and am not quite sure if it's the cube or my turning and, how important in your opinion is lubing, I have never bought one or lubed my cube and is vaseline viable, I average 22 secs and I think I should really improve my LL and when is lube necessary to get better times keep up the gr8 work ^_^

[@cadewatson1689]

if your at 22 second FOR SURE get some lube if you on a budget (ish_ id get the cubicles pack of dnm37 silk and lubicle one..i had the same Q when i started and like no one really talk about it its just a given to them but yes it makes a very legit differece... i avrage around 23-24 and wouldent be able to do it with out lube lol i have 16 bottles of different lubes cause i wanted to try them all but the also last ahile.

[@Unigardy]

If it's a speedcube, don't use vaseline. I recommend the three pack of Traxxas 10k, 30k, and 50k from Amazon, and maybe some silk as well. I always put 50k on the core. If I want to speed it up, 10k on pieces. for slowing down, probably 30k, it depends. I also sometimes mix them. Dnm gives short bursts of speed

[@bouncyspring6274]
