Common F2L Mistakes

[@prodcaf]

0:48 - Top 2 colours are the same, white facing you. 1:23 - Top 2 colours are the same, white facing you. (Mirror) 1:45 - White on top, edge colour the same as the corner on the right. (no matching stickers) 2:38 - Front colours are the same, white on top. 3:47 - Edge is solved, and the corner is above the solved edge. (triple sexy really easy) Hope this helped.

[@hipixels5939]

thanks!

[@blackdragongamerytonamazon3696]

U r a legend

[@criticalcubing]

Do all of this already :P Helpful for beginners. I am guilty of doing the first case wrong too xD

[@Majestic469]

same, and for some reason, I still can't get sub 20

[@TCKyewbs]

This is perfect for me, super helpful! (:

[@linusthyberg]

TCKyewbs me to

[@ΝικοςΣωτηριου-ο6β]

exactly the same and for me

[@debeastdueeast]

I like doing reverse sexy far more than sexy. So I just do triple reverse sexy for that case.

[@xlance17x60]

same

[@ethandennis368]

Same, and it's also less moves if you start with the corner on the left side so you don't have to do a u :)

[@Strikey2G]

yeah i find it a lot easier too

[@matejbolta]

+Strikey but 12 vs 11 moves

[@martinegdal8366]

+Matej Bolta depends on where the corner is

[@dylanhughlett5767]

Drew you are one of my favorite cubers and I love how you make helpful videos and not just solves. I hope you do great and win at nationals

[@BragCPTNBob]

I'm a 30 second solver so this video helped a ton. Nice job

[@deebadubbie]

This is a cool video! Just the perfect next step for me from having just learned the principles of F2L. Thanks!

[@Trez0129]

This was a VERY helpful video, I have been hardcore struggling with other F2L algs. Tysm

[@andrewfreeman5109]

Awesome video... Helped a lot. Thank you. It's good to have an explanation and walk through rather than just algorithms

[@LLawliet-tv9ig]

Wow, I actually learned something new.........Didn't know you can actally solve triple sexy from the back like that. Now I can save 1 move. Thanks

[@julianprado1327]

Nice video and tutorial, Drew!!! Keep up the good work, and keep uploading!!! Thanks! 😄👍🏽

[@TheCDM1971]

Thanks! These are the types of things that might not be obvious in an intuitive way and computer generated algs don't factor in grip friendly/2 gen factors for speed.

[@nix207]

I found some of these on my own while learning intuitive f2l. The only one I had to search for back then was the last one. So I thought that these were obvious to someone learning intuitive. I guess I was just lucky to find those ways of inserting.

[@Ryan.Rivera]

I found the second to last very helpful, you should make more videos like this!

[@nathanraber.]

thanks Drew, I found this realy helpfull to my f2l solution

[@McMahJoh]

Did not know about that last one case, thanks!

[@kalanileibow4076]

1:25 Nice, I learned that case from Collin burns 5.25 3x3 wr and use the same one.

[@kalanileibow4076]

Btw, thanks for this video. I learned a few cases that I did terribly, so thank you!

[@XTownCuber]

No problem, glad it worked for you.

[@kalanileibow4076]

XTownCuber :)

[@adityarajsrivastava6580]

For the last one you can put the corner on the left and then do a right sledgehammer and you will get a 3 move insert .

[@ponongkhoo23]

XTownCuber, I like your cubes so much! They're always so gummy!

[@ericgu6328]

This was a great video, and was really helpful. I hope you make more videos like these! Cheers

[@nilscw5840]

for this awkward case (1:50) you could also do a U + inverse sledge, to set it up to a threemoveinsert

[@talh6083]

This is a really good video! Helped me a lot Thanks!!

[@ray13h]

Thanks for the great video, youtube needs more of these.

[@anirudhsrinivasan8953]

Drew, in the second f2l case where the white corner was facing up, you can move the piece to a free slot and perform 2 sexy moves which will pair them up

[@ClonkyClonky]

AS Cuber that sucks

[@Epiccuber]

This video helped a lot, I'm currently trying to get better at F2L. thanks!

[@hriddhitdatta454]

for the third case i do this: U' R' U' R U' R' U2 R'( to put back the disturbed pair ) R'(or R2) U' R'... flows quite nicely for me!

[@waspio88]

At 2:40 I really like the case because it has one of my favorite F2L algs: R U R' U2' (R U R' U') (R U R' U') It can be performed and finger-tricked really well and easily.

[@izzydomcates]

Thank you for making this video. It helped me a lot.☺

[@ferhenne]

Thanks! This is really2 helpful. Can you make more? I like to solve f2l intuitively instead of algs. :)

[@TheLastSamoan]

Thanks for this! Very informative and super helpful!!

[@royvivat113]

The first case that you said, I had started cubing for like 4 months then took a break and when i got back into it, I noticed that and felt dumb

[@joelchrono]

for the last one, you can do U sledgehammer and easy f2l case

[@ExternalGod]

Subscribed! Awesome video it helped me a lot thanks!

[@ajayhs9023]

Great video, very helpful!

[@alejandroleiva2061]

Can you do a 2nd video on this with a couple more tips? 💪

[@programmingpandemonium7791]

Nice video! Personally, I think that you can do way better things for the 4th one. Put the pair in the back by doing AUF, then do R2 U2 R' U' R U' R2. You can also do L F' L' F R U R' but that only works if the pair in the front left isn't already solved. I hope this helped you! :)

[@JT-qk9kn]

Thanks so much for this! Incredibly helpful.

[@aaronariff6727]

I have no idea why but this video really helped

[@seanismboi]

Thanks for the video. I'd love if you slowed down a bit for beginners like me so we can follow more.

[@vetriselvan6498]

very good video and easy to understand

[@johnathonmalnar5163]

Thanks! Very helpful!

[@Jogie]

the last 2 cases are easy white-up inserts... seems faster to split the pair, and to the white-up insert than to do a triple sexy move

[@briannaspencer9169]

I learned from these. Thanks for the tips. :)

[@sqdium4294]

2.22 I actualy love this case!

[@fabiogrundler577]

3:40 is U Sledgehammer 3 move insert so much worse ? ore what shell i do if i have this case buts it s not the right slot to insert ?

[@littlejoe9950]

Really helpful thank you !

[@mcwoo2598]

Very helpful thanks

[@ChrisCuber123]

for the 4th case (the worst one) i use R U R' U2 double sexy

[@jasonthecuber]

Yes I do it U2', so it's basically triple sexy with a U' after the first one.

[@derek9817]

for the second case you could just do the sexy move twice when it is facing you

[@jakobygames]

omg I've been stuck at 22 average 17 pb for like a month now. I will definitely be using these, especially the last one.

[@joedbatir8074]

Thanks drew!

[@terrences.mvuyana3663]

thank u so much I leant something I also made mistakes now I know what to do

[@eternalrewind2190]

This helps a ton.. thanks

[@mohit3648]

great video. really helped me

[@ImajeMajik]

Wonderful Video

[@edwindelanuez7030]

awesome dude

[@AiyunoDaProGames]

What? I never knew people make those mistakes, I usually do everything you do in this video.

[@PraetorianCuber]

I'd love to see more of these tutorial type videos, drew, how do you solve this case? sets up with F' U' F U R U' R' U2, I use the inverse of this set up to solve it

[@XTownCuber]

depending on EO and how it's set up etc I do either U2 R U' R' or U' R U R' and then insert. there's other fancier ways too like U' l U' R U l' U R'.

[@PraetorianCuber]

+XTownCuber thanks drew, that last alg is interesting

[@citronovastava]

great video!

[@quieego]

Hi @XTownCuber But in the first 2 cases you need empty slots! you cannot do those algs at the last pair...

[@quieego]

I mean, you used empty slots in those examples

[@dunjadosenmajkic9494]

Nationalns mains/goals video, please!

[@speedcuberpro1062]

you are very very pro, Feliks is the best on the world, but you are best on the world and help the other people to be better in your tutorials thanks for all, im spected you understand jeje.

[@lisasierra9546]

Thanks drew

[@MoreThanAWESOME]

All the F2l cases i suck at ...... really awesome :D

[@tatsumiranda2415]

Great video do more

[@iamchase4life]

The alg I came up with for the last case is U (R U R' U') (R U2 R' U) (R U' R'). I thought maybe it was shorter than triple sexy but this was the first time I ever wrote it out and it turns out it's the same number of moves.

[@LanceDanielsMC]

Thanks very much!!! you helped me a lot! LIKE!

[@gmseo]

these arent my mistakes but I learned a lot

[@cubeboi2047]

I'm having trouble using these in solves. Any tips?

[@eseilawimpershlaak]

For the third case: (U') R' U' R U' R' U2 R2 U' R' Very nice flow and relatively short

[@cameronmckee8243]

Very helpful :) thanks

[@mattshore929]

Very first f2l pair: R U R' U2 R U' R' Insert

[@cjcuber1656]

thanks for doing thisss it helps a lot subscribed👌

[@tobi.st3]

Very good video! :) Helped me alot ;)

[@PraetorianCuber]

damn I already knew all these, good video though, and I use inverse sexy x3 instead of sexy x3 for the last one, faster for me

[@dylancossin]

i do U R U R' U' R U2 R' U R U' R'. I can execute it fast though

[@criticalcubing]

same U R U' R' * 3

[@timyang2996]

When people do the first one wrong I cringe so hard lol that's literally one of my favorite f2l inserts and its so fast and easy and you can get some really nice double inserts with that case

[@ruidai4440]

I NEED this

[@dagna2698]

For 2:36, I just do F (U R U’ R’) F’. Then U’ and insert.

[@icantclutch6353]

This video helped a lot

[@Smrth_13]

In the 4th case do a Mats Valk position and do R2 U2 R' U' R U' R2.

[@xAnimuzZ]

Another alg for 2:41 is R U R' U2 R U R' U' R U R' Same amount of moves as the one in the video, although I think I prefer your own in terms of execution

[@danieldugarte8886]

More Videos from F2L advanced for people who are averaging between 10 to 11 sec. Greetings from Venezuela

[@nonstopcubing3752]

Hey drew how do you setup your aolong v2

[@SpencerAnd]

For the third case (the bad one) I use R' U' R U' R' U2 R2 U2 R'. (If there's no pair in the back then you replace the U2s with U then U')

[@d3ad.4gain]

Why is your voice reminding me of ColorfulPockets

[@vilhelmjohansen2853]

2:25 you can put the pair in the left side and so the slot is in the right then do (F R' F' R) U (R U R') Do the F with thumb.

[@stefanodomeni]

I'm surprised he said the fourth case is an ugly one. I love that case, it's super easy.

[@KyleSantucci]

StivenCabrera3 it is ugly...

[@Nolmy300]

I swear all of your cubes sound like they squish. How do you lube them? It sounds cool.

[@XTownCuber]

it's just straight up 50k traxxas. This one only has a tiny bit cause I just cleaned it.

[@westfield90]

Thank you

[@jervy80]

Super helpful Drew! Btw, we're expecting a repeat at Nats right?👍😀

[@XTownCuber]

well maybe you are, I'm not xD

[@jervy80]

+XTownCuber You're the man! I believe in u now! Anyways, good luck and kick some butt!

[@priyanshushukla6649]

plzz make more videos like these.

[@ballista_is_best1388]

Subbed I'm caster do you remember me at Nats been looking for your channel

[@michealjameshermano6003]

why the 1case destroy complete F2l in front? is there an alternative for this?

[@tam7646]

....seriously......move the corner piece to an empty slot in the same column. Problem solve.

[@Coloradoski24]

Where can I get that shirt?

[@pranavjain9344]

For the first case, you can use U, sledgehammer, R U R'

[@Sutobuto]

in 2nd case (no match, not the mirrored one) can't u just do a double sexy? its 2-gen so its faster

[@XTownCuber]

The algorithm I showed is also two gen but is much, much faster. You won't find a top tier solver who regularly uses double sexy for that case.

[@novastar7284]

For the second f2l case you can do 2 sexy moves to pair them

[@carterkucala4595]

Nova Star that is what you shouldn't do

[@damianwilding]

MOAR THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@omaralsagoff6989]

this is a very helpful vid dude😊 TX!
