don't get me wrong I loved this video and want more, but like this looks so much like some AI comments I've been seeing on my alt where I upload videos

[@futurecuber24]

I’m going to be honest, I’ve been cubing for 4 years now and I don’t know why the Redi Cube isn’t an event.

[@zacharytrudell2411]

For the longest time, it was due to the terrible hardware. Everyone thought that there was only one, puzzle the one by MoYu. The YuXin one, without previous knowledge, you'd never know is the same puzzle. If you look up the solve, it's also very linear. The method is basically the same, and there are basically no algorithms. It is a very fun puzzle, and of course is a puzzle, but with how the WCA is right now, you'd need REALLY good reasons to add an event. It would have to be perfect, and Redi Cube/8-petals is not.

[@augustphye3361]

I also think that they should add kilominx

[@drax5up425]

I think it is because only moyu makes it

[@Noahzyskog]

Yea I've been curbing for 5 years and I am kinda mad that they have not made redi cube a event🙁

[@timeisahorse114]

Kilominx FTO (once they start making good speedcubes) Master Pyraminx Mirror Blocks (and no inspection mirror bld) Redi Cube Rescramble (from red bull) 2x2x3 or some other cuboid Replace Pyraminx with Jing's Pyraminx (don't hate me for that one)

[@momiswatchingyou2488]

4:46 i always love doing the pyraminx alg on different cubes

[@EddtheRexMan]

EDIT: I have spent some more time with each puzzle and my thoughts have changed and are more complicated. I want to make a video for it but I think self promo here is inappropriate so! Get the yuxin if you want to be fast quick, get the moyu for some of the reasons I mention below - Shawn was right and I was mistaken, sorry about my previous comment, Mr Speedcubereview! I'm not super fast at redi cube (and I don't really like either option) but in my opinion the yuxin 8 petals is my least favourite corner turning puzzle I've ever solved. I tend to prefer a more tactile and controllable puzzle, and the yuxin is not remotely tactile, even on the tightest possible tensions. One more thing, the magnets sometimes fall out of their slots in the yuxin which can also hamper the stability of the puzzle. I expect most people would prefer the yuxin, but for me the moyu redi cube is better.

[@Zyugo]

I really love the selection you recommend, although I'm curious why the 2x2x4 isn't mentioned. I kinda think 1) WitEden's prone to exploding, 2) Rubik's brand doesn't follow the standard color pairings, and 3) QiYi was said to have made a 2x2x3, but not yet a 2x2x4 or higher. I believe someday we will get the best version of that 2x2x4 anyhow.

[@MilanRubiksCube97]

@@SpeedCubeReview The mirror blocks by Shengshou get a lot better with breaking in and they are very nice after sone time. I prefer them over the moyu ones because the moyu ones have blurry stickers that aren't as mirrory and reflective. For mastermorphix, i don't like the look of the YJ one, never been a fan of YJ attempts at ridges and i much prefer the shengshou one or the cubing classroom. Shengshou changed their shades so it looks nicer. The kibiminx looks bad with their center design and it reminds me of the Mefferts flowerminx. Shengshou came out with a stickerless kilominx as well. The megamorphix, master pyra and the time machine are a good recommendation imo. I don't like the Qiyi 3x3x2 because it's 60 mm and not 57 so it doesn't line up well with the 3x3n collection and the lanlan one is just fine if you tension it.

[@SpeedCubeReview]

The Shengshou is basically a copy of the Rubik's brand. The performance is no different than any other major brand out there besides the MFJS ones. The issue with the shengshou stickerless one is they added colors to the centers which takes away the idea of it being a "2x2" puzzle. The new colors for the mastermorphix must be very new. I have been constantly looking for them to update the colors and it seems not never lightake has it.

[@MilanRubiksCube97]

@@SpeedCubeReview I can send you a picture of my shengshou one with new colors if you're in doubt what it's like. I think what happened is most stores got the new one and forgot to change the display picture on their website. Also I'd love to see you do the 2x2x3 comparison lefun vs qiyi and the 2 layer cheese comparison Diansheng vs Lefun.

[@SpeedCubeReview]

I'm not doubting, it's just not many places. Is it the more matte finish like the other SS puzzles?
