What I Learned From The Top 5 Square-1 Solvers in the World

[@thomasmako]

if i ever get into squan then ik who to learn from jk its always gonna be cube master

[@CubeMasterYT]

Learn from me learning from these pros :D

[@RBMCubing]

Cube Master ur tutorial is the best, I learned squan dere

[@cubed3018]

Nice, very interesting! Square-1 is a really cool event :)

[@VicenzoGuerinoCecchini]

Amazing video! And great analisis. Thank you!

[@CubeMasterYT]

Thanks! Also thanks for being an amazing solver I can learn from :)

[@VicenzoGuerinoCecchini]

@@CubeMasterYT hahaah thats good to hear from you! Well, I need to say the same, most of advanced stuff I know and use nowadays are due to your videos and arguments!

[@devensinho]

Hello Vaitchenzou

[@KardTrickKid]

Oooh Excited! Hopefully I can learn some cool tricks

[@ThibaudOU]

This was insanely helpful and insightful Sam, thank you for this.

[@CubeMasterYT]

Glad this was helpful! (I think you requested this a year ago so sorry for being late lol)

[@ThibaudOU]

That's definitely possible lol, at least you eventually made it ;)

[@ThibaudOU]

I think it would be interesting if you could do a more recent version of this vid

[@kaicuber7840]

Accurate finger tricks are the most important thing imo, but this is still a AWSOME video, thanks for sharing

[@lr6722]

Great video as always!

[@andrewtan881]

Cool, also do you think the future of square-1 will be 3 step solutions? (CSP, OBL, PBL) Cuz it seems to me like it’s going in that direction

[@akal4ce]

the future is CS- F2B at once-Pll+1

[@KardTrickKid]

@@akal4ce no lin is bad

[@twistiicuber1055]

KardTrickKid vandenbergh gang

[@CubeMasterYT]

I think we're quite far from optimizing that , OBL needs to be predicted during inspection and PBL has to be full alg and none of those have been accomplished yet. Seems hard but doable though!

[@andrewtan881]

@Cube Master I see, so 2-look solutions might be possible in future albeit not so soon

[@flaviorimicuber]

I avg 7.8 and i was shocked by the obl of michal..

[@CubeMasterYT]

Yeah I think he doesn't get enough credit for that!

[@gemgem3280]

I’ve been doing squan since March but I can get past the 45 second mark. I just can’t turn it fast enough. Do you have any advice?

[@CubeMasterYT]

I would watch my 100+ Square-1 Tips video for ways to be more efficient and the 20+ fingertricks video for turning faster. Make sure you are alternating most of your turns and making algs regripless and using those fingertricks inbetween :)

[@gemgem3280]

Cube Master thank you!!!

[@earl-cubing205]

Can you make a video about how to get sub 15 in suyare-1

[@CubeMasterYT]

Maybe soon!

[@bowtieshorts]

Nice video Showing what we can learn from pros

[@davidcejka253]

hi, i have 2 questions: 1: can i lube a sq1 like i would lube a 3x3(without dissasembling)? LIke opening a gap between corner and edge and putting a drop of lube in there? 2: can i lube a square 1 with a water based lube(Like Dnm 37) or would that make the cubes springs rust or anything like that? Thanks

[@412cuber]

Yes you can

[@lucas_lb_cube]

It's crazy that world class times are the same for Square-1 and 3x3 while most everyone says Square-1 is much harder.

[@CubeMasterYT]

Square-1 should have less combinations, just different turning and CS looks harder

[@akal4ce]

helmer analysis when?

[@KardTrickKid]

poor lace no lin ):

[@CubeMasterYT]

Nah you can do that video tho :)

[@maxcubes8724]

You know Easy OBL Cases

[@YashBudhiraja]

Hi sam, nice stream

[@samuelrubinstein7948]

Why no Derpy :(

[@CubeMasterYT]

As I mentioned in the video, I was trying to analyze the top 5 Square-1ers in average, and he isn't quite there yet. However, he does do quite a lot of interesting PBL stuff I could definitely learn from, but just not for this video :)

[@parabolaaaaa4919]

i watched some 4x4 example solves and improved my single my 18 seconds and avg by 6 seconds

[@SeanD6091]

I just got my first ever sub 30 squan average! edit:I got another sub 30 average!

[@speedcubingaccount4121]

EYYY CONGRATS BRO

[@elliottperkins-speedcuber6727]

Nice! Sub 20 soon!

[@flaviorimicuber]

I think if we looking to some solves of Ethan erez we can learn a lot

[@ryaneckersley2037]

no he's really inefficient the only thing making him somewhat fast is his tps

[@CubeMasterYT]

Yeah only thing to learn is being inefficient and spamming SPS lol

[@ThibaudOU]

@@ryaneckersley2037 just like in 3x3

[@JrTheOctoling1319]

*Am i the only one who prefers a yellow side instead of black?*

[@nottherealrenatosanches1529]

Probably
