5x5+ Advanced Methods: Free Slice | Reduction & Yau5

[@ace5161]

Just got my 4:20 min pr on 4x4 6:23 min pr on my 5x5 14:02 minutes PR on my 6x6 All at once just because of your tutorial It's much easier and faster than the beginner method.

[@recubeulous]

After cubing with 5x5, 4x4 feels like 3x3 and 3x3 feels like 2x2

[@Trumpophone7]

Agreed, and after solving 7x7, 5x5 is like not a cube

[@timkulchitsky6690]

So... what does 2x2 feel lile? 1x1?

[@Reihynn]

Then 1x1 feels like 0x0

[@Reihynn]

Btw after i touched a mastermorphix now im wondering why my 5x5 is square lol

[@EliteCubingAlliance]

MarvelGamers - Gaming 0x0 feels like -1x-1

[@laiscube]

I use Yau 5 on 5x5 and 6x6. Edges are easier and cross is easier. 6x6 L4E is also very fun with Yau 5, but I would still recommend reduction for 6x6 unless you know specifically what your strengths and weaknesses are (basically if your lookahead during edges, and your 3x3 stage cross is worse than the rest of your solve). On 7x7 the middle bar is annoying and there are more slice moves, so Yau 5 is a bit harder.

[@JPerm]

I tried yau5 on 6x6 for a bit and I feel like it works, but even with my bad redux skills I'm still far better with redux

[@laiscube]

For me I stagnated at 3:10 for very long with redux. Then I switched to Yau5 and managed to sub 2:50. Then I got the AoShi GTS M and went down to 2:37-2:38. For 5x5 I was using Yau even before I knew 3-2-3 and freeslicing existed and practiced the method for 2-3 years before picking up 6x6, probably why I was so much used to Yau than redux.

[@JPerm]

no problem, i appreciate that you considered it :) yeah we're almost at a goal where i can start working on a surprise type of video :O

[@HeybrajanTamariz]

Thanks for this video, I always had doubts about how to properly use free slice without breaking the centers and thanks to your video I now understand perfectly! Greetings from Costa Rica!

[@nemoyatpeace]

Thanks for this video. I've always wondered what the "proper" method is for the edges. I've developed my own method and was surprised when someone talked about parity as I never have to deal with parity. But I'm sure I could do much quicker if I learned the parity algorithm and other aspects. Here is my edge method: First, just move any edge I see that has white in it to the center edges, aligned with the white face in the same direction so they can be sliced together. Once I have enough white faces, start finishing edges and moving them off, at the same time, start bringing in the yellow edges in the same way. This will eventually finish all 8 edges. Now, I realign the centers and start getting pairs of edge pieces on each edge by slicing on one end and then flipping them into position. Once all 4 last edges have 2 correct, I slice and rearrange edges until I can simply do a slice and fix all 4 edges. Unfortunately at this point, I often end with the centers offset and have to do a bit of commuting the edges into place. I feel really good about the first 8 edges, but think that I could use some of your methods to help with the final 4. (I currently solve in about 5 minutes each solve.)

[@gamingjedi52]

Lol there is a comment above you saying the same thing

[@caioalmeidamartins5668]

The fliping alg : R' F R F' R U' R' is better because has no regrips

[@sundar437]

Caio Almeida Martins I

[@spermutation2557]

agree

[@TheCuberCubes]

Agree

[@tehyoshi]

It's also easier to memorize because it's just sledgehammer + insert (R U' R').

[@JPerm]

this is good on 5x5 because no regrips, but on even larger cubes the one I showed is better to avoid left handed moves.

[@simonreyes7594]

Finally a good tutorial on 5x5 Reduction

[@isabelruas8560]

I LITERALLY LOOKED FOR THIS TUTORIAL YESTERDAY IN YOUR CHANEL

[@tylerhicks621]

For 5x5, I have developed this habit of inserting edges from the bottom instead of doing a z2, not sure if it's good or not but I've found it's easier on lookahead for me

[@tylerhicks621]

For instance I would do a half x rotation and do something like F' R F R' to bring an edge up

[@chasethescientistsaturre5009]

I think it's good since you can lookahead faster.

[@nabranestwistypuzzler7019]

For basic reduction on any cube, insert the 1st 4 edges into the bottom so that you don’t have to look on the bottom after that to make lookahead a lot easier.

[@averagejoey2000]

Isn't that the same thing as Yau? Starting with a partial cross to get all non white pieces on the sides and top row for easy search?

[@nabranestwistypuzzler7019]

Joseph Simone I said to just put them into the bottom to get them out of the way, not actually specifically solve the ones for the cross, and even if you do, it’s still not Yau because for Yau, you solve & insert the first 3 edges before L4C & maybe also solve the 4th one and move it out of the way, and then you solve/insert the last cross edge upon finishing L4C.

[@Boomer.Roberts]

At 0:58, is there a particular reason you wouldn't just do R2 to get that piece lined up, and then slice its layer twice, instead of doing the whole flipping alg? I've been solving big cubes for many years but haven't tried to improve any of my reduction algs until recently.

[@l4vaburst375]

Doing an R2 will only work sometimes, it’s best to get into the habit of doing the flipping alg

[@namanisawsome6548]

I love your vids

[@willbagthegreat]

I have an idea for a big cube method that really only works on 4x4 and 5x5. Make the white center on the bottom, then make center bars for the e slice centers, but before you put it in, attach a cross edge or wing piece so you make the cross at the same time

[@trevorfields7782]

That's a cool idea

[@kalabalacreation5704]

After solving 5*5 for a hour if we get 3*3 to hands it feels very primary and easy!!

[@thetallestcuber2609]

Have you ever given standard Yau a shot (aka not solving and inserting two adjacent "pairs" before L4E) and if so, what are your thoughts on that vs Yau5?

[@JPerm]

what I do now is only insert obvious pairs that are in the top layer already, sometimes just 1, usually 0. I prefer having more freedom to make yellow edges as well, and I think Yau is faster for most cases. one big problem about yau5 is if the f2l pairs are hard to make and you end up doing so many moves that now every slot includes a solved edge. in that case you have to do even more moves to put unsolved edges into the slots again.

Gravity™ doing f2l is more color complicated since you have to pair up multiple corners with many edges, so it’s understandable

once you get a decent grasp of f2l, try to be color neutral though. it's not very hard now but it can be really hard later on if you ever plan on switching.

for cross edge you can make it early on yau4, which is what I actually do now. it's about the same speed. but for f2l pairs, 3-2-3 edge pairing is better than free slice on 4x4 so it doesn't work

no 3-2-3 on 5x5+ because the edges can be in too many locations, and 1 slice can't pair an entire edge at once
