I watched this once last year to learn 4x4, I forgot how to solve the last few edges so I came back to this video. It’s amazing how well J Perm has achieved his goal of sharing cubing knowledge and techniques to as many people as possible.
if youre sub 30 then you probably need to work on using inpsection time to solve a cross and/or efficiently/correctly inserting f2l pairs. you may also need to slow down and solve with low tps; since a typical cfop solve has about 60 moves, if you turn at 2 turns per second you can still achieve a 30 second time.
3x3 is really where it’s at. However, I feel so much more powerful solving a 4x4. I’m not good at all but slowly learning the oll pll parities and can almost solve without help every time. I’ve solved 5x5 and all but last few pieces of 7x7 but there is something special about 4x4
Yeah true… 4x4 is like the middle man between easy yet complex and fast, and hard but long and simple - it’s like complex enough to be fun but not so long that it’s boring.
I like this method, honestly. I don't normally start 4x4 due to how long it takes me, and the reduction, not to mention I don't have the best cube. This is making me want to start speed solving, thanks!
I'm about to start using 3-2-3 and I'm averaging sub-1:10... Maybe this will get me sub-1 Edit: my times went up to 1:25 and after a week I got bored of 4x4 but I'm back down to about 1:15 lol
did you ever get a first 2 centers 3 criss edges next 4 centers 3 edge pairing 2 edge paring 3 edge pairing and 3x3 stage skip i did once the scramble was z x' y2 T Q W2 C x y'
this is the only tutorial that shows you how to solve the edges properly. Thank you so much. Spent 3 hours wasting time on other vids, when this amazing vid shows it all
I am here after knowing reduction method well and wanted to speed my solves up a little. This edge pairing is like 100x faster but that's probably compensation for me constantly messing up the first three white edges when finishing centers XD
this video is so useful that solved many problems that i had before. i never found such a great video in chinese website ,maybe a cuber told one tips in his video,but only one,cannot fix all my problem.but this video is so nice.With the linked video learned,i can be sub 50 in a short time. thanks a lot.
Yaaaass, new PB just a couple days after watching this video _again_ and actually paying better attention 😛. I've just crossed the 2min mark but I was stuck there in that 1:35-2:00 range for quite a while. Got a better hang of 3-2-3 from this video and after a couple days of solves I got 1:17.85 (down from 1:32, so pretty big jump). Now if I can just get better at _seeing_ the first 3 cross edges. That seems to be the place I struggle the most. I don't know what it is. I just can't _see_ the damn pieces 🧐
So far, I've def improved my 4x4 skills just by solving a lot and noticing little things I can do more efficiently. But overall my solves are still haphazard in a lot of places. PB is 2:11.29. Gonna have to woodshed some new techniques to get sub-2 mins. I think I'll feel accomplished if I can get down to sub-1:30. Sub-1 min would be spectacular but I have my doubts as to whether that's possible for me personally. Eh, where're my old cubers out there? I'm 41. I know I'll never be that impressive but I enjoy working on it. Just doin it for the love of the cube!
@@sheeplegend1324 Nooice! My PB is 1:17. I'm starting to get a lot more 1:30s range solves but haven't hit sub-1:20 again since that. The 1st 3 Yau cross edge pairings are probably my worst step. I can't see anything. It drives me nuts.
@@spacevspitch4028 since i average 10 seconds on 3x3 i can track edges better ig my pbs 45 second rn Its been 3 weeks of 4x4 personally and i joined 4x4 cuz my friend did now he quits tho
@@sheeplegend1324 10s is great. Sub-10 seems to be one of the biggest milestones. I'm right on the cusp of sub-20 but there's a lot of variation in my solves. PB is 13.47. That was last Feb (2021) and I didn't get another 13 until a few weeks ago. Then I got a few of them over the past few weeks. I get a 14 or 15 once a day or so, so I'm finally starting to see new progress.
i will definetly use this tactic when i get my first 4x4. (my mom is gonna get me a rubik's brand and when i really need a new one that is when she will get me a gan 4x4 from amazon

Another thing you could do for the double swap algorithm is put the edges that need to be swapped in opposite edge slots (i.e. one edge in FL and the other in BR, while the other pair is in FR and BL) then do Uw2 then two edge flip algs, one on the FL slot and the other on the FR slot, then do a Uw2. tbh thats what i would do just to start off, but i might end up using your version further down the road.
it's like u can read my mind, I was just practicing this yesterday, I like how u added the extra cases and the adjacent and opposite edge alg things, I've never seen them before, thx, my 4x4 skills are lacking, this should help a lot.
Confused asf as first but one thing that’s great about the cubing community is u can go watch a video that explains more then u go back here and it helps me more because I understand what u are talking about
Yeah, I thought so too, he placed it in the description (second algorithm from process of elimination (I haven’t tried it yet but I assume that’s it)).
I learned how to do this like 2 years ago thanks to your videos but now i feel like im learning an entirely new way to solve it and it makes me uncomfortable lol. Was there a longer but easier method besides the yau method?

thank you you are honestly the best youcuber
and can you do how to be sub 25 on OH I'm stuck at sub 30
I am stuck at sub 30 with 2 hands 3×3
if youre sub 30 then you probably need to work on using inpsection time to solve a cross and/or efficiently/correctly inserting f2l pairs. you may also need to slow down and solve with low tps; since a typical cfop solve has about 60 moves, if you turn at 2 turns per second you can still achieve a 30 second time.
JH Park no don’t slow down to a specific TPS, slow down to the point where you won’t pause, or untimed solving

It’s probably because most cubes have an odd number (ex. 3x3, 5x5, 7x7)
@@sitalatha3312 Well… not really. Exactly every other cube has odd and the other half are even. It’s pretty balanced lol
5x5 is so much better imo...cause it doesnt have parity

In my opinion you make the best cubing tutorial
I'm pretty slow on the 4x4, and just learned the Yau method, so I will start to incorporate this type of pairing into my solves. Sub-1, here I come!

This is like learning f2l for the first time 😁
yeah
I've known how to solve the 4x4 the easy way for years. Thanks for your help with the Yau method, I feel my love for the cube reinvigorated
That is the best 4 by 4 video I saw
Thanks for this tutorial! I really like 323 pairing but I stuggled a lot. But after watching your vid it was clear to me instantly!
Been doing this cube for about a month now I can solve it every time but this saves me having to do one edge at a time. Thanks a ton😂❤🤘👀
