EASY: How to Solve an FTO (Beginner Method) | KEWBZUK

[@potatoman17hi44]

I got my fto like 2 days ago and haven't tried to solve it because there was no good videos except for this one ! tysm !

[@KewbzUK]

Thats amazing to hear :D Thank youuuuu

[@_J189]

I’m the exact same

[@やまだたろう-n9o]

Thank you! This is the best! There is no easier or more intuitive explanation of FTO than this!! I had given up on the LANLAN model and left it, but now that I've bought the Diansheng model and am trying again, your video has helped me! Thank you again! FTO is becoming more fun!

[@FunNado]

Once upon a time I could not figure out any other tutorials… But then this video came along Like a knight in shining armor. Thank you so much!!!

[@KewbzUK]

The exact reasonf ro this tutorial was because i couldnt understand any of the others either xD You are most welcome :D

[@MrArtCube]

You are my saviour man. I got my FTO for Christmas and was so confused at the other tutorials until I found this masterpiece of a video

[@Snakefire999]

This is the only tutorial ive been able to follow! Great vid 👍

[@darman7481]

Finally a good one to follow!

[@KewbzUK]

Thank youuuu

[@Quantam-hh1oy]

finally a tutorial that actually makes senses and I can use, good job!

[@The-Woofler]

This is how I imagine a jperm tutorial to look like

[@davidsipp3313]

Perfect. Solved it in just a few hours. 😊

[@MagnusEmil-z8u]

Such a clear and good guide. Props to you, mate! :)

[@ninagebauer3003]

My english is not good. But I understood everything and it worked well. Very simply explained. Thank you very much.

[@KewbzUK]

Thank you so much, glad it helped :D

[@sridharangopalakrishnan4131]

Very good tutorial. Made it easy to understand. Solving last few edges may pose a challenge but with good understanding, can solve easily. Thanks

[@KewbzUK]

Glad it was helpful! :D

[@SillyMintSlice]

Hey, thanks so much for this tutorial, I was able to solve it today :) Few comments to add that could help: Triangle pieces need an M or S slice move to solve the triangle on each side (you mentioned the piece was in the wrong place a few times), and make sure all triangles are solved on all sides before dealing with the edges Edge pieces, after completing the first white layer use the top yellow/grey sides to rotate pieces in and out to help solve the second layer

[@mellong64lmao]

this is the only fto tutorial that worked for me. thank you!

[@samueldospuntosuve7033]

That's amazing, I'm Mexican and I could understand you, I've watched some videos and your video was the only one I could understand. Thanks for your tutorial.

[@KewbzUK]

Awesome! Thank you so much :D I want to do alot more videos in this format as they seem to be really helping people

[@jeffreyaustin8635]

Great Tutorial! I truly appreciate you simplifying it for the beginners. I had my first successful solve this evening! Thank You!

[@KewbzUK]

Great to hear! Always up for suggestions on which puzzles you would like a solution on too :)

[@helengoodman6193]

I bought my fto from Kewbzuk, and then I found this AMAZING tutorial! You explain it sooo well. Thank you!

[@etahas5940]

Thank you ! Like you, the other tutorials was not for me of the way i learn and i was not able to understand them. This method seems way simplier and more "logical" in a way for me.

[@KewbzUK]

You are welcome!❤ Glad it helped :D

[@legendaryboss7288]

Really good tutorial, thank u!

[@KewbzUK]

You're welcome! Thank you so much for the feedback :)

[@Kabosu-EB]

Really good tutorial! This FTO looked really REALLY intimidating the first time I saw it. When I watched your tutorial, I realized how easy it was. THANK YOU!!!!!❤❤❤

[@KewbzUK]

You are welcome! Such a fun puzzle NGL. Glad you solved it :D

[@kratoselricsuzumiya8345]

This tutorial is perfect. Explaining why we are doing each step was extremely helpful. Thank you

[@KewbzUK]

Glad it was helpful! :D

[@pranthowrungrueang4092]

The other tutorials were just so confusing! Thank you so much!!!

[@bruhseelas]

I was very impressed by the clarity and simplicity of this tutorial. From the beginning, I found it easy to follow the text and understand the steps presented. The steps were broken down logically and concisely, making it effortless to grasp each new idea. The clear explanations and step-by-step instructions also made it easy to put the concepts into practice. (english is not my first language, so I apologise for any mistakes I typed)

[@terrywisham9228]

Very Good, thank you

[@JustSomeRandomSerb]

Thank you for this tutorial!! My friend scrambled it right after I got it, so I came looking for a tutorial and here was one that was simple to follow, and clearly shown!!

[@inzanedogg3]

Dude you're the man! It was making my brain hurt so bad trying to figure out how to do this your explanation is excellent you kept saying sorry for going slow but it helped in so many ways thank you!!!

[@ahmadstation1]

i just tried learning Bensisco an hour ago and couldn't do anything for 47mins i felt like someone who can't solve a 3×3 trying to understand F2L tysm this tutorial is great it's gonna help me at least understand how the pieces move and interact with each other by practice

[@pauldavis5665]

Finally a tutorial on this puzzle that is easy to understand. After watching a bunch of other tutorials that were hard to follow I was starting to lose hope. Thanks!

[@tiller0519]

Great turtorial, I couldn‘t follow all the other ones bc they just did some moves and expected the viewer to just get them and follow along. You explained it perfect so I could always tell whats going on, great work👍👍

[@guachu1000]

Finally an easy fto tutorial. Thanks for the tutorial!!!

[@kazzerism]

Wow, this is the first tutorial that actually makes me think I could solve my FTO! I've been too scared to scramble mine so far lol

[@garryknox1614]

Brilliant, you have just convinced me that I should get a FTO puzzle. Thanks for catering to the beginners like me.

[@KewbzUK]

Glad I could help! :D Hopefully going to be doing a faster method soon, get some practise in on the beginners method and learn the faster one with us!

[@cubeadventurer8143]

Excellent! What a relief. Great teacher.

[@carlos24288]

Only well explained tutorial I could find, solved it in the first 30 minutes.

[@dziadzia8]

This is literally the best tutorial i could find, you explained everything very well, thanks!

[@_J189]

Life saver

[@jere1372]

I just got my fto today, and it took me about 2 hours to solve it with no help And now I'm here, learning a method that will not take 10 quadrillion moves

[@RubiksRonaldo]

Very interesting! Great job on your beginner method tutorial! This is the first time I've seen anyone attempt to use the method provided on the pamphlet, and honestly, it's quite interesting and it's awesome to know that now with your tutorial there's probably going to be a mixture of FTO speedsolves where most use the bencisco method and a handful who use this beginner method!

[@KewbzUK]

Thank you :D Always nice to hear feedback. Honestly so so happy that its helping people. I may do a series were I try to solve puzzles from the pamphlet, most of the time they're so poorly written you would Mr Alan Turing to decipher it 😅

[@ohannnestenkerian7352]

Best fto tutorial on youtube. Thank you for making this.❤

[@OBGCubing]

Great video. I’ve been trying to work through my FTO for a couple of days and the other videos out there just weren’t very helpful. Thanks to you, I can finally say I know how to solve this thing.

[@KewbzUK]

You LEGEND! Thanks for the feedback

[@StumbleGurl]

When I get my grubby little British hands on the new FTO, I will be back here 😂 also i ordered a package from you about a week ago and in it i got some of your blitz lube, and i gotta say, I'm in love!

[@KewbzUK]

🤣 thats hilarious hahah! Glad you like Blitz too :D try it with Swift (or glide) looooooooove it!

[@StumbleGurl]

@@KewbzUK oooooo i definitely will!

[@user-zu7oe2mm8l]

Excellent video!

[@TheNerdyCube]

Perfect timing as my fto just arrived

[@KewbzUK]

Yooooooo have you solved it yet? be honest xD

[@codyboop4617]

This is by far the best example of solving. It now makes perfect sense lol thanks!

[@BartulMarusic]

I watched so many tutorials but I couldn't solve it then I saw this tutorial and I solved it thank you so much this is the best tutorial.

[@Soamddn]

Bro, thank you really, there are tutorials for a method called Bencisco that is much more difficult and is supposed to be for beginners, but yours did help me. You explained very well and slowly 👍👍👍🥵

[@Nullscr1pt]

i am on the step where we are trying to rotate the triangles in (the second step) after the white corners and the Radioactive symbol or say.. mitsubishi logo (white). when i start doing the colors is there a certain 'orientation' you hold it to do clockwise or counter clockwise? like does white have to be a certain way or spot? or can you literally rotate the FTO any direction you want to do clockwise / counter clockwise notations?

[@KewbzUK]

Good question and i think i understand you, (but if not feel free to drop me an email at [e-mail] and im happy to give you a video response back which me be slightly easier) but all we want to do at the start of step 2 is get as many triangles in situ as possible, if you keep the middle layer free for as long as possible you can sort of use it to insert colours (I hope that makes sense 😅)

[@ovindu7511]

Amazing video, much better explained than most other videos. You inspired me to buy an FTO and you’ve earned a new subscriber ❤😊

[@GimmeSnacks1435]

This helped

[@KewbzUK]

Amazing! Glad to hear :D

[@zyxibule]

Thank you for this! I bought the FTO but also struggled with the lack of good videos around

[@leechuang9630]

Thank you! 100% the best tutorial for how to solve the FTO cube!. Job well done mate! Cheers!😎 See ya!

[@rodneytopor1846]

That's a very simple method and a very clear explanation, thank you. It minimises the amount of both memorisation and thinking required, which suits me! However, it does require many turns for the repeated centre rotations, so would probably not be suitable for fast solvers in competitions.

[@zeekutartheimmortal]

I know exactly what you are talking about and exactly what video youtube is forcing down everyone's throat. "lets start with a specific scramble... what? your puzzle is already messed up and has a different color scheme? that's ok.. this is SOOO intuitive..."

[@KewbzUK]

ngl, had no idea what to do 😅

[@errrixon7309]

Thanks bro!

[@Geniuscuber397]

So uhh when i was doing triangles i was trying to get the final triangle in (the step where you put all three on the faces around the white face) and one triangle was in a position where it was impossible to get it on the face it belonged to. What is going on?

[@I-cube24]

Was it on the yellow face? I also have the problem.

[@Geniuscuber397]

@@I-cube24 i figured out the problem: my Fto popped earlier and i put the pieces in a wrong way. Thats why that happened lol

[@keithreed7796]

I still have trouble with last edges sometimes they are way out of the way and hard to get in place how do I go about it

[@RainerF]

Thanks for your tutorial. The funniest thing about the FTO is that it comes with a standard triangular cube stand that the FTO doesn't fit into.

[@StretfordBear]

Thanks for this! Really want to learn the Benisco method, but the tutorials are so confusing:/ also , how did i not know you guys had a KZbin channel? 🥴

[@SusLemon]

Do you guys sell the Volt V2 M UD Square-1 stickerless version?

[@KewbzUK]

The M UD was discontinued in stickerless :(

[@SusLemon]

😢

[@Henry_Martin]

I created my own method which is corner to opposite corner but this tutorial might be better...

[@KewbzUK]

Ohhhh interesting.... This is like the veryyyyyy beginner method but were going to release the Bencisco method too soon :D

[@jeyoungpark-p2v]

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ClaudeSpeed32]

I’d probably buy that to collect the 5 platonic solids

[@Pentagonal-101]

Guys i wanted to ask, cos my blitz lube speeds the cube up for a second and then it becomes slow regardless of the amount i put in, this might be me just needing a super fast lube but it feels like a stock, dry cube is faster. Does the lube do that to anyone else or is it just me?

[@StumbleGurl]

@@Pentagonal-101 there are a few reasons that could be happening, and it's not the lube's fault. First of all I recommend giving your cube a good clean with a cloth, it sounds like you lube your cube a lot, and even fast lube can build up making it all gunky and slow. Also try opening up your cube and putting the lube on the pieces instead of just on the puzzle! Hope this helped ❤️

[@StumbleGurl]

@@Pentagonal-101 oooo and I forgot to add, if you've been using a dry cube for a while it gets dusty and slow, if you add lube on top of that, it'll get fast for a bit and then slow the HECK down 👎

[@Pentagonal-101]

@@StumbleGurl the thing is, i lubed my ys3m RIGHT out of the box after 1 solve soooo idk Edit: i also cleaned my cube many times and even 2 drops made it a bit slow, ill try to clean it well though and hope for the best 😁

[@StumbleGurl]

@@Pentagonal-101 that's rly weird, just put in a little at a time, over lubing can make it slow, and break it in with around 20 solves

[@Pentagonal-101]

@@StumbleGurl ty for the advice, i did that and the cube didnt get faster nor slower so i think i just need to get like dnm37 or something lol

[@Tottbjorn]

Good tutorial😊 but I am still not able to solve it and I hate FTO just like I did with square-1 😵

[@Bloxcube9436]

I can't solve them because I don't have the same thing as you.

[@DartmanB]

I hope you get sponsored

[@daviesbydesign]

I think when you say clockwise you mean anticlockwise because you say clockwise and the first thing that moves is L.

[@KewbzUK]

Which point is this? ill have a little look and adjust it if its wrong ahhh

[@daviesbydesign]

@ I think it’s the algorithm for rotating the slices - i think labelled opposite on screen. So counter clockwise algorithm actually makes them move in a clockwise direction.

[@Gretchaninov]

While this solution is simple, it's extremely inefficient. Certainly not a speedsolving method, more appropriate for blind or MMC (most moves count) if that becomes an event. At the early stages, like putting triangle centres into place, you can avoid the rotating alg and simply use slice moves - any faces which get twisted just have to be twisted back again. Very basic commutators. Only later on is it necessary to stabilise more pieces with more precise algs.

[@RyderPrice-q9u]

Did not work 😡

[@BriocheDuck]

Your voice sounds like georgenotfound but calm and smooth

[@KewbzUK]

legit just had to search and see who that was 🤣

[@draakisback]

I disagree that this is the beginners method. The bennisco method is easier for most things apart from tcp. Even then, tcp (last layer) is pretty easy if you learn 2 look. You really just need 2 algorithms to solve any case. The difficulty is basically on par with 4x4 yau with elements of skweb and praminx. Lots of sludge hammers and hedge slammers.
