I've been speedcubing since early 2020 after being kinda addicted to watching Rubik's Cube videos in late 2019, and it's easily one of my favorite hobbies. My PB is 14.07 seconds and I average roughly around 20 seconds give or take. It's always cool watching these videos teaching non-cubers how to solve a 3x3 for the first time, it's interesting seeing how they go about understanding the methods with metaphors for each step and stuff like that. Once you become a cuber you don't really see many non-cubers out there who genuinely want to learn how to solve it, you just see people think it's a cool party trick (which it is but that's just one perk to it) and are perfectly content never learning how to solve one which is fine, but that just makes those who know how to solve it or actually want to learn how stand out that much more. Props to them for actually learning how to solve it! also gotta say respect for the speedcubeshop mat they're one of the best cube stores around and you should totally check them out

This is one of my favorite of a number of obscure skills I've learned. One that's extremely hard to show off without looking like an ass. Because there's only two possibilities. Either you happen to come across one in your every day life, which has only happened to me once in 12 years. Or you have to carry one around, and if you just happen to be carrying a cube around, there's nobody that thinks you can't solve it. The one time I unexpectedly came across a cube was when I was installing flooring for lowes. It was just chilling on a coffee table. Props to the person that was trying to solve it, because one side was done...but the corners were out of place. I should have asked if I could finish it, but the client was working from home, so I didn't want to bother them. Before we finished, solved it, and left it exactly where I found it. I never saw that house again, and I have no idea the reaction it got. Still satisfying though

This has the most detailed explanation I've ever seen, and I've seen plenty. This may well be the ultimate beginners guide. But, do get a proper speed cube (magnetic, if you can afford one over $10), as they don't have the frustrating course turning of the cubes you find in the toy section at the drug store.

i was taught to just make a cross first, then swap them around so the colors match up, which adds time but is definitely easier to figure out when i was a child
@MrAqr25982 жыл бұрын
I do it in a similar way until the top cross, where I complete the top face (make all the top face colors face the same direction), then match the top corners with the other faces, and finally match the edges with the other faces. Also I usually use the blue face as the bottom, green as the top. 21:53~ The "none" configuration is the worst you get, which gives you the "L" configuration after you do the algorithm once. After that you just position the L in the rear left, and just like how they did it. 11:38~ 27:13~ How the last function works is the fact that chaining six basic right hand algorithms without doing anything in between brings everything back to the configuration you started off with. For example: if you start doing right hand algorithms from a solved cube, using the same two axes every time, without doing anything in between, six algorithms in a row resolves the cube. Same can be said for the left hand algorithm.

I kept thinking I have done something wrong, but I have double triple checked and I am doing the final move correctly. In the video he had only two corners to be rotated and they are diagonally away from each other. I think in my attempts and I not always having that setup and it is messing the cube up once I solved those corners. I learned to go back and fix layer two edges, then white is top and I fix the cross and move the corners around and sometimes that will solve it completely, but I have one where I had two diagonally apart to be rotated. So I when back to that algorithm and it solved. So it must matter what algorithm to use on the final to solve.

I learned the basic way to begin with...then the bottom 2 layers, but when I hit that wall (~45 seconds give or take for most people) when you start needing to learn all of the top layer states/shapes for the speedcubing aspect, I realized I had more fun figuring out what went where rather than rote memorization. It's still fun to watch, but much like Chess Masters, at that point you're no longer playing based on the piece movements but more on the state of the board and related it to how other notable games went for those moves. These days I solve a 3x3 corners first, but still use a similar way to this when I reduce a larger cube. Sune (?) to get the top color the same, corner swap (T-shape) until the corners are in place, Three edge rotate to get the edges in place. (mirrored to do clockwise or counter). Less algorithms to know, but still gives the feeling of solving a puzzle.
@Blutzen2 жыл бұрын

@Hawkinator-gv9nt2 жыл бұрын
Yes! There's actually almost an infinite number of these methods: all you have to do is pick a set of moves and just keep repeating them over and over. Eventually, it'll take you right back to where you started. This works for any and every set of moves, as long as you don't make any mistakes and start with a solved cube. Some of these sets take longer than others, but they all go right back to the start.
@VVheeli2 жыл бұрын

I mean when you think about, it's impossible that a repeated set of moves would not lead to the starting position. Because even if the cube has many possible states, its never infinite (Edit, looked it up, it has about 43*10¹⁸ states). So your chain of states has to eventually loop.

Most proper speedcubes come apart super easily, look up pretty much any review of a particular cube and they'll probably take it apart and you can easily see how it works. Basically every center piece is attached to a core and spring loaded so they're pulled inward. Then the edge and corner pieces have bits that stick inward which form a sort of sphere around the core. Those bits can slide past each other so a whole layer can spin around. The whole thing is held together by that tension from the springs on the center pieces. Not sure if any of this makes sense but if you see it I'm sure you'll have an easy time understanding it!

I have to disagree, the notation is super easy and intuitive, up, down, left, right, front, back. Only thing that I found difficult to grasp at first was which way to turn the D and B faces since it's counterclockwise by default from your perspective, but none of the algorithms he taught them used those moves anyway. And if this is your first tutorial, and you decide to try and reference anything else on the internet, it'll be harder to unlearn his notation and learn the proper one that it would be to just learn it properly in the first place.

A lot of the fun in cubing to me is the wildly different strategies. I'm self-taught, and I do top-cross, then middle layer except for one edge piece, top corners except for one, then use those two spots as real-estate to solve my bottom cross, then I solve my final 5 corners. From what I understand the best speedcubers do corners-first though, which just seems like utter madness to me. I average ~2 minutes with a standard Rubik's brand cube, and I'm pretty happy with that having come up with the algorithms myself. Turncutting is a lot more interesting to me than time.

Only one of the top 3 methods can be considered “corners first” (known as roux, it’s what I use) and even then, that’s divided into 3 steps: solving the bottom left 2x1x3 block, solving the bottom right 2x1x3 block, and finally solving the top corners. The final step of the method is FUN; it’s only M and U moves. CFOP and ZZ both work in a more layer by layer style, working from the bottom up.

@@nanonyne5130 Huh. This video got me watching some Max Park videos. Namely his 3x3x3 average world record. It looks like he gets one side and then it's just done. Do you know what method he uses? Also, do the strategies you mentioned all use OLL/PLL? Those seem to be very popular with the speedy people, but they kind of seem like a lot of extra moves to me. I guess fast is fast though.

Actually the top solvers can do corners and edges simultaneously

when i learnt a few years back, i was taught that UP is rotating the top layer clockwise and UP' is counter clockwise. If UP is moving the side layer up then what do you say to move the other side? you don't say UP left or Up right, you just say L or L', R or R' etc. the key at the start of the video explained it perfectly but the explanation and diagram went against that entirely
@cubecatecho2 жыл бұрын
The key was using standard notation, however the tutorial is laid out to teach move sequence for muscle memory rather than notation and Algorithms. I posted a nice breakdown with actual notation on the Modern Rogue subreddit
