2x2 being a challenge makes sense, especially going from the perspective of a larger size. I was lucky enough to get advice on it

I Honestly Think The 1x1 Is The Hardest

[@LuffyPistol]

nah. just cut the 1x1 and make 4 small pieces just like the 2x2, after you’ve done it add the things just like what are inside rubik cubes how they are attached after that, there now it’s not hard anymore

The 2x2 stumped me at first, so I learned it with a tutorial. But then I forgot how to do it because I barely practiced, until I realized it's just a 3x3 with only the corners, and I could use the same corner switching algorithm I'd known for ages. You do need new algorithms if you want to speed solve it, but otherwise it's just a 3x3 with fewer steps.

[@teeperrhyma7348]

What you said lol. I'd been cubing 3x3 for a bit already when I got my first 2x2 and I'd already watched a vid on a 2x2 before so like 5 minutes after taking it out of the box I got a 12 second solve...which sounds super slow but I was ever so slightly proud of myself haha

[@opeltulikylkee7479]

I did this, I also realized that with only one extra algorithm that I made up as I went, I could solve a megaminx as well so that was pretty cool

fabio touch / 4x4 checkerboard cube is pretty easy if you use a different method. all you have to do is make all centers and edges one color so you have a 3x3, then if you group the colors again so top black, bottom white, and middle divided in two, there's a fairly intuitive algorithm which basically results in a 2x2 with one color on each half. from there the solve is trivial

[@zarktyark7312]

Yeah. I have a meffert's checker cube and used the "separate layers" methods to solve it

awesome work you almost never give up if you put the 21x21 and the zetaminx aside

[@theamazingcj2748]

The ghost cube was mine. I knew it was a 3x3 shape mod, but I ran into a major issue I'd never seen before. That being the fact that my top center had to be oriented a certain way. It frustrated me so much. I eventually figured it out, and haven't touched it since.

[@Mackaber]

I remember imagining a center for the 2x2 and it became easy after that (solving it like a regular 3x3)

[@M2_CubingYT]

Hi Timmy I luv ur vids

[@Moseka43]

i actually did the 2x2 pretty quickly, just by solving it like I would a 3x3 but just corners. Now my best time on it is about 3 seconds, and I average 8 seconds! very fun

[@sophieli6749]

the funny thing is I never used a tutorial for the 2x2 cube XD like literally I solved it by myself it took like a week no tutorial

[@drewlovelyhell4892]

Your description of my 2×2 experience was precise. I don't know how to solve a 3×3, so I thought a 2×2 would be more accessible. It is a lot simpler than the 3×3, but you still need to learn techniques. I use the simple method, rather than learning all the algorythms, so haven't solved it in less than about 15 seconds.

[@cacky_moon]

I learned 3x3 first which makes solving a 2x2 a breeze. a 2x2 is solved the same way as a 3x3 except without the 2nd layer and edge pieces. just corners

[@stevenboss05]

I really want to get into cube art and was woundering what file you used in the ZHC video to help.

I actually have some puzzles that I wish I could do they're the 4x4, 3x3, skewb, 2x2, 3x3 octagonal barrel cube, the megamix, and a lot more cause I'm new to this puzzle thing and is now collecting puzzles like these.

[@vanessavicente3895]

i solved the 2x2 by myself but it’s because of my knowledge of the 3x3, i just pretended that a 2x2 was like the corners of a 3x3, so instead of doing oll or pll, I did something that started with R U L U’ I forgor

[@RockyRasor]

hey Timmy i love ur cube art i was wondering where u get the cubes from and how u aford to get all those cubes and i was also wondering witch cubes u buy soory about my other comment it was a joke xd

[@DowningFamily]

2x2 was very challenging for me but it looked easy it's super easy to solve 1 side on a 2x2 and once when I tried to solve the green side I accidentally solved the full 2x2 cube in 9 seconds!😅

[@jomertomale]

2x2 and pyraminx are actually good pieces to start. Anyone who started with 3x3 without help ended up giving up solving it and never picking it up.

[@cacky_moon]

learning 3x3 first is easier bc then you know how to solve a 2x2. its just corner piece moves

for me the 2x2 was super easy, the same as a 3x3, only with less things to do, but when I let my friends try to solve it they couldn't, even knowing how to solve the 3x3 and even the 5x5

I think the 5x5 pyramix was hard because it wasn’t the same cubes as the 4x4 pyramix

[@Alex-fv7ri]

For me, it's the pyramorphix. I thought it was just a easier version of the pyraminx and got absolutely destroyed when it started shapeshifting. I solved it once I don't dare to mess with it again

Well, for me I never had difficulty on solving 2x2 since 10 cuz I started solving 3x3 first then I went advancing and solving 4x4 already then 2x2 and it was no sweat and I didn't even use at least one algorithm on tutorials (a tip use the beginner's method in 3x3 to solve 2x2)

[@mr-h._.i]

i learned how to solve pyraminx sub 20 by just solving 1st layer repeatedly kinda works with 2x2 as well

You might not have known this, but solving a 2x2 is easy if you can solve the 3x3. Just think of it as the edges and centers and solved. The first step is hard, but a corner is always solved. Just find any white corner and where the white is facing, that is the white side.

[@karthik999x-narrowone8]

Actually 2x2 is the simplest cuz it is just a 3x3 with the edges removed. So you're supposed to pretty much pair the white side along with its other sides correctly to form half of the cube and then use the technique at the part where you fix the last layer corners in the 3x3. Ez. But still this is just a basic method!
