[@SideshowJosiah]

Very good video! I always get mad when I solve a cube in front of people and they say "I can't ever do that". I even try and explain to them how they can but they don't even believe it. I found out that the mindset of of how someone sees a Rubik's cube can be arguably comparable to how they see their potential in life. Many people that don't believe they can solve the cube also tend to disbelieve in their value and success in life. It takes dedication and hard work. Practice, routine, etc. I also was very insecure and felt worthless at times in life. I grew up with people looking at me like I was inadequate, and I believed it. During my freshmen year, I went out of my way to find out how to solve the cube. once I was able to do it a couple of times, I took it to school here and there to practice and to show people. Everyone was shocked at the fact that I was able to do such an "impossible" thing. Over the years, I found out that solving the cube is too good of a representative for the rest of life's challenges. I tell people that if they can solve the cube, then they can solve any other situation they are going through, and can achieve anything they truly want.

My partner scrambles them when he sees them solved and I solve them when I see them scrambled. For me it is pure relaxation and meditation. I am a slow beginner and I don’t want to get faster. I just enjoy the few minutes of clear headspace that I get when I solve them. Such moments are very rare in my stressful life (filled to the brim with paid and unpaid work).

There’s solving a cube (on your own) and solving a cube (by knowing how). One is probably raw intelligence, at least in some areas. The other is easily accomplished with determination through memorization and practice. Both do need a person to have some positive traits. And both also look the same to anyone who doesn’t know how to do it.

[@kennethkho7165]

No, it's not raw intelligence. They're just trained in algorithmic problem solving and willing to put enough time to it. Wouldn't be a super hard problem.

[@spacevspitch4028]

Knowing how many of the early cubers figured it out by themselves, I don't know if I ever would've been able to work out how to do by myself. It's mostly with commutators and as simple as the commutator concept is, for some bizarre reason, it never occurred to me.

[@omegachad8087]

I see you are the creature everyone calls non cuber

[@andreaspatounis5674]

Personally I learned to solve it alone. It doesn't require raw intelligence I was experimenting different algorithms I could use in different phases and everytime I found one I used it multiple times to understand exactly what it does

[@khayman9574]

Honestly, I didn't think it was possible to just figure out how to solve the cube by yourself but, obviously, I was wrong. I mean, I learnt one way of doing it just by watching another guy when I was 10 and I still remember it. However, that's not how fast solvers do it. Anyway, I'm happy enough I still remember 1 way of solving the cube after some 40 years I first saw it.

4:32 When I realize that speedcubers were time-travellers

[@sepsysmurf6982]

Yesterday I spent two hours looking through tutorials and solved my first cube ever. Honestly it's the best feeling ever when you get the actual logic behind it.

[@user-so5ip8df2k]

You have to be born with the necessary "formulas" "algorithms" or "patterns" that are present in your subconscious; but really it shows you have great social skills to find someone willingly to teach you, whether by person or on a KZbin video. But really you need "comprehension" skills to be able to solve a Rubik's Cube. As long as you understand the instructions and show patience as a virtue, even a pure minded 1st grader can solve a Rubik's Cube but this is very uncommon because alot of parents find it easier to control their child if they are kept rather ignorant, because ignorance is bliss that pacifies them.

[@coryellsworth9705]

The way I like to describe the cube to dispell the misconception of solving one layer at a time is to tell people to think of it as a 3-D Jigsaw puzzle; it's not a puzzle of getting the right colors on the right sides, it's a puzzle about getting the pieces in the right place.

[@HenrikMyrhaug]

It is completely possible to figure out how to solve the cube on your own too, and that takes a lot of time and dedication. IQ in general is a measure of pattern recognition and problem solving, so having a high IQ may help, but it's not required. I tried the megaminx without any knowledge of how to solve it, but I knew how to solve a 3x3x3, and was able to figure it out on my own without any algorithms or tutorials. This made me realize how figuring out how to solve the 3x3x3 is not actually that hard, as long as you understand how the cube is built up, and how it changes when you rotate a face. I have been able to solve the cube without using any memorized algorithms. Basically all ways humanly possible to solve a cube requires you to use some algorithm that someone has found, but it is possible to figure them out on your own without looking them up. I don't spend much time with Rubik's puzzles anymore, as there are many other things that I personally find more fun to spend ny time with, but I think everyone should learn how to solve a Rubik's cube.

I teached my uncle how to solve a 3x3 with your 10 minute tutorial and it only took like 30 minutes! I swear you’re the best! :D 2:31 My uncle (before learned how to solve a cube) always thought that and I was like ’you are just wasting time..’

I loved the Tetris example for looking ahead.

i love that last one because i dont have to say it so thank you for that oh and thanks for the video man it must've taken forever to edit this jeez

[@Salty_Taco9357]

I really want to send this video to everyone in my school so they understand that I don’t reverse the scramble, or that the more colours seperated the harder it is to solve it, and especially that you *can’t do two fawking moves over and over again to solve a cube*

I really appreciate you teaching me how to solve the rubiks cube. Now my record is 38.4 seconds even though i started last month. Keep up the good work.

[@rent2ownnz]

good video. Thank you. I was suckered into the 5 move solve videos. I have learned of course that it is not possible. I have been practicing now for about a month and have got it down to 1:47 and cannot seem to get any faster. I am still struggling to remember some of the solving algos... but am slowly getting faster and faster as I recognise patterns and use the algo to place the pieces. I have not advanced to 2 piece moves as yet but will move to that now.

[@kevivtawar7716]

thank you so much this. bought my first cube yesterday

[@lizzzylavender]

About point seven, also, people solve for different reasons. I cube, but I don’t personally like speedcubing that much, and don’t care much about improvement. I find the logic soothing and satisfying. Therefore, i really like big cubes because it takes much longer and you spend longer doing each step. Just like someone might enjoy playing a Mario game without speed running it, casual cubing is also a thing

[@pckid92]

Casual cuber here and I completely agree. I can solve a 3x3 in about 40sh seconds. I use it like some people would use a fidget toy or something along those lines. But I just purchased a 4x4 and 5x5 and have solved both intuitively, albeit it took me quite a bit of time, it's a great way to occupy space in your brain. When you want to wind down and just not think about how shit your day was, pick up a cube and turn it.

[@FishingForLife28]

Also when you look away from the cube during the last few algorithms and people go "wait you were not even looking at it?!?!"

[@practicaltactical1336]

Excellent video!

[@M4W07]

This video makes a lot of sense! I am chess player, and am around 1700. If I can deal with 64 squares, with 32 pieces, in less than a minute, then it motivates me that I can solve a 3x3 cube. Had watched your begineer's KZbin video yesterday. Solve the cube for the first time. Only took me 15 minutes. Now will practice and improve it! Perhaps even learn more complex and efficient algorithms later on!

[@hoosiercoasterfan2655]

This will probably be buried but 0:25 gave me an idea: What if you made a cube that you could make a cube that you could turn like a normal 3x3, but the face also turns completely independently to the top layer? Kinda like 5x5 centers, but it looks like a 3x3. It has probably been done before. Even if it hasn’t, I’m no puzzle designer.

[@JPerm]

Oh that would be really interesting! I think it would work exactly like the x-centers on 5x5 actually so it would be super easy to solve

[@matejgrohmann2736]

good hardscramble for cfop solvers is : checkerboard + superflip + random corner commutators. All crosses are same and they are 8 moves

[@boundlessvast8748]

Have to perform all the three algorithms together right?

[@TeamAurorapk]

your tutorial taught me in 10 minutes only having to reference a few time and now I've done it about 16 times today thank you

I just got my first cube yesterday since I was a kid. In a matter of hours, I learned how to consistently solve the first two layers. Today I'm going to learn how to solve the third layer.

dang nice my first time when i was learing to solve it was like 4-5 minutes XD so props to you i am a bit better at this point at 90 seconds as my best but my cube broke from overuse(not that it was that usuable since the stickers were almost completly gone only barely anything left) so that may have slowed me down a tad or not who knows anyway wellcome to the wonderfull world of being a cuber
