Who here is a CFOP cuber but is just bored and wants to learn Roux? Me but also because Sean Villanueva just got the third sub 6 average and he uses Roux lol
I just wanna say that, after doing a couple hundred solves with a COMPLETELY botched and flopped aberration that I originally thought was Roux, I watched all your tutorials a few times and today the L6E step finally clicked for me. I'm feeling the same thing I did when I completed my first solve ever, haha. Roux is such a beautiful method, thank you so much for taking your time to teach it! Also I was doing some L6E scrambes on CSTimer and did this thing here: Generated By csTimer on 2020-08-14 single: 5.26 Time List: 1. 5.26 R' L F' B2 R' L D' R2 L2 D2 @2020-08-14 14:46:30 My solution was U2 M2 U M' U' M M' E2 M E2 Which isn't optimal, but I'm proud of it :3
I just got my first roux solve and I'm so excited! This method had so many possibilities. I didn't understand this the first time, but the more I watched it, the more I understood. Thanks Kian!
just saw this and I have to say this video series has been one of the best tutorials I've had when it comes to cubing. I just started speedcubing and they've been a huge help.
For those of you who really can't follow this step, don't worry, i was also suffering... But now after a few months, i can do it! Believe in yourself too fellas!
Decided to give cubing another go after trying to start several times over the years. This series of videos was a huge help! Idk if im stupid or the tutorials i've been following previously were written bad, but this was way easier for me to understand than the basic method for some reason (well, when comparing later steps of algorithms at least). I dont get people saying the explanation of LSE is bad, there literally are a handful of moves you can do to solve it, guess some people are too used to strict algorithms for all steps or something, idk. Again, been a pleasure, great vid mate!
Got my very first cube a few days ago. I initially thought this was very difficult but after a few days of just scrambling and slowly trying to solve my cube coming back to this playlist, I'm finally really getting everything.
Now I know why Roux is known for its inituative style. I'm not gonna change from CFOP to Roux, but it's worth to have the knowledge and to add more style to teach my friends at school. Thanks man, subbed!
I’ve been using a beginner method until now. I tried this five months ago and got frustrated and put it down. Tried it again and now it works. Got a sub from me.👍
Thank you for this video! It all finally clicked when I saw the ulr move to permutate the blue and green at the end once all the edges were oriented. I can now do both roux and cfop with no problem. Do you have a video on advanced block building?
Oh my god, this tutorial was so simple and easy to learn from. All 4 videos I learned from I got it almost right away. After giving up after 30 min from bad sources, I came the the fastest guy who does Roux. I was determined to learn Roux and in 3 or 4 hours I was able to memorize almost everything I needed to do for Roux. Thank you so much Kian. You are a great teacher.
@@Kian_Mansour I just have a quick question. Every time I get to LSE and I do the arrow I always get some edges swapped and I can never get 4C cases, and I always end up solving the cube using M' U2 M. Am I doing something wrong?
Great tutorial. I’m a CFOP solver but I’m trying to learn new methods. After an hour of practice I got a 30 second roux solve, thanks! This is a really cool method
This was the last part of Roux that I needed to learn it. For a while, I gave up on it cause I didn't quite understand that last bit. Great Tutorial!!!
I’ve recently gotten back in to learning how to solve my cube again, started with CFOP a week ago and was overwhelmed by the amount of algorithms to learn and couldn’t do a solve without reading them. About 12 hours ago I saw Roux as a method of solving and thought it sounded fun so I started learning it instead. I couldn’t understand the LSE step and luckily came across this video and it all just clicked. 12 hours after first seeing the word Roux and I can solve without reading algs 🤘🏼 This video is extremely helpful and so simple to understand, thank you dude
OMG! Finally i solved using roux method for the first time. Been watching your tutorial video since yesterday. I got the idea now, but not easy to understand the concept for a beginner like myself who has been using the basic CFOP method since years. Feels like an achievement 😂.
Bruh.. I learned to solve with roux method just under an hour... Thank you so much. I dont understand other tutorial.. but with this I understand clearly
Nice! I really like how this barely relies on algorithms. I mostly use two longish algs and that's to orient and permutate the four corners. The algs to fix all the edges are so short, it's either MU2M' or MU'M. So easy. And the way you explained the alone edge really makes the whole thing come together. Thank you for this thorough tutorial.
I actually don't remember it as M'U'M. I feel that it's the only logical way to get the arrow and do it. I use algorithms only for CMLL . But advanced Roux has more algorithms .
My first Roux solve. Thanks so much for this video series. Took me about half an hour but hey - just starting out. And cubing for me is not necessarily all about speed. So thanks again.
Thanks for a great guide! I came here from knowing beginners method by memory, allthough I currently don't even know notation or any algorithms. I guess I have enough visual queues and understanding to make up for it. This method seems appealing to me. I think I got a grasp of it, will try it out with a cube tonight!
Yep -Works like a charm! Everything is easy to understand and remember except J-perm. Was able to solve from memory after an hour, except a little cheat note for J-perm.
Very useful now I can almost solve the cube with this method. I keep returning to this video as lse is the stage that I'm stuck on. This video series has helped me alot. I am going straight to the Roux method from the beginners cross method. Roux has been easier to grasp than cfop for me when I was looking at which method to take me to the next level.
These 4 videos are amazing. I'm complete beginner with cubing and have only solved the cube with beginners method and then with beginner CFOP. I was interested in roux but all the other tutorials made me believe that it is way too advanced for me. After this tutorial I can actually solve the cube using this method although I'm still very slow. my best times with cfop are currently about 1 minute 30 sec but I hope I will get under one minutewith both methods after I get proper cube (currently using horrible rubiks brand).
@@topfive8415 lmao, you remind me of Objectively Optimal Oscar. It's fun for people to learn different methods. Not all of us are trying to go to competitions and shit. Ville - I suggest you do whatever you enjoy.
Man!!! This is the tutorial I needed to make the Roux method not seem like I was learning another language or something 😂, very easy to follow and understand!!! Thank you 🙏
14:55 "you can do random U2's and M primes, Oh it solved itself!" . Thanks! I my first roux solve!!! I didn't think I'd get Roux (until I was well versed in CFOP ) but your tutorials helped me. Will def go through more runs
Thanks for your time to make these videos. With these I now manage to solve the cube consistently (about 30 solves without looking anything up). As you had proposed re watching some videos helped me on the way but everything was clearly described.
What do you suggest for next steps to improve on this method further, other than beeing faster and solving the intuitive steps better? CMLL, EOLR or something else? I feel like EOLR should be easiest to learn for me as it's quite intuitive.
I’m a sub 12ish cfop solver trying to learn roux for the 3rd time (lol). LSE is the hardest part for me and this vid makes it clear and easy to understand. Thx mate 👌
It's all a learning process, this video explains how to do it . Write it down and practice. That's how I did it . Now it's doing it over and over and over . Welcome to cubing...lol ... thanks for the video, well done !
I have seen all other Roux videos ... I sucked with them Even though I am a sub 20 using CFOP. But your video is absolutely good... I loved your teaching skills... Thanks bro I can definitely say that your video is best in TH-cam for Roux...👍👍👍
First day (yesterday) I could bare get a single solve, I finally managed to solved it once. Today I got a sub 10 minute solve, even though it's atrocious compared to speedcubers, I'm proud of myself 😁
lol,, I was so pissed you didn't explain LSE and was talking and going so fast.... Then i rewatched a few times and you absolutely covered it very well .. After doing it a few times I can get this done fast and fully understand it. I only have to memorize the Sune and the J-perm and I can solve it... Best Video on TH-cam for the cube,, Thank you so much...
Hello again Kian! I have followed all of your tutorial series and solved the cube with Roux. I did I few more solves, but I'm still stuck.. I don't know whether to switch to roux or stay with CFOP. I was also watching many videos about Roux vs CFOP, which is better, etc.. But I haven't come to a conclusion. I have made a list of pros and cons of both methods, but I still can't decide. I wanted to ask a Roux solver.. Is Roux method fun, fast and good altogether? What are your thoughts on Roux and CFOP? And lastly.. Why do you use Roux? Thank you for reading!
i should have started cubing with the roux not learning this easy method after 2 years of trying to get sub 25 Edit:thank u so so so much for teaching us how to solve with the roux method i learned it in 30 minutes and now i need yo practice to get faster.Big thanks from Macedonia
Kian Mansour Few problems with Roux for me. 1fst my look ahead sucks, I feel ZZ is doing a better job on that for me. 2nd For LSE my left hand only grabs the cube with the thumb and my pinky for iltra fast U2s. Doing ~100 solves a day this really fucks my pinky up. 3rd OH. M slices aren't as bad as everybody says when doing that table thing. I do most of my solves tableless though, and my backpalm table both looks weird and is technically cheating. 4th One month of Roux: ~35 secs with up to 53 secs cause I suck. 4 days of ZZ: ~35 secs on okish solves (havnt times a good one yet) with uo to 51 on bad ones. Roux is a really fun method, I don't know if it's the right one for me though. Will you still love me if I don't come back? PS: also I feel like I do everything the most ineffecient way there is and I do stuff kinda repetitive so stuff like LSE got boring after only a month.
You can't expect your roux skills to be as good as other methods if you've invested less time into it. Work hard and you'll improve. Try holding your pinkie in the air, off the cube
You´re a machine cuber, thanks for the tutorial, it´s very good!! I´m ZZ solver and I´m very confortable with that method, but I see some tutorials about Roux, including this one, and it seems a funny method. I don´t know when, but I think that I will try Roux someday :)
Sir I don't know if you will read these but I watched many roux EO videos but didn't got it as they all said to learn many alg for different cases and not explain the way it works But you explaied where the pieces go Really a big thanks❤
as a cfop cuber, i find this kind of intuitive, but it still has its confusing parts like when to use Ms and Us. but you still explained it very well. nice job, keep it up! :)
Thanks, very helpful, tried another tutorial and he never even touched anything you said. If there are any beginners here (like I am), I would highly recommend Kian
I have an alternative solution for the columns case - 12:33 - (M2 F2) (M2 F2) - oriented with the red and orange sides facing you - it could also be (E2 R2) (E2 R2) or (S2 U2) (S2 U2) depending on how you orient the cube. You could also do opposites if it is more ergonomic for you - (M2 B2) (M2 B2) or (E2 L2) (E2 L2) or (S2 D2) (S2 D2).
After watching your solves and been a subscriber for awhile, I'm finally Sub-20 CFOP, I think it's time to sit down and learn Roux. These videos are by far the best for anyone trying to learn! Is it bad that for CMLL, I keep finding myself just using OLL algs?
@@Kian_Mansour been looking at your website for the past few hours lol block building is gonna take awhile to master. But, sub-1 min already! Gonna stick to Roux for awhile now. I just feel like a badass when solving lmao
I finally got it! Some helpful clarifications and tips: 1. dont get tricked by seeing the arrow when the yellow or white dot is not at the top. You need the arrow when the yellow or white is on top. If you solve the arrow when it is not yellow or white on top, then you'll get stuck! 2. Fully solve your cube, then play around with just U2 M2 moves. Usually you can get get to 'pillars' pretty quickly.
Hi! Im a CFOP solver learning Roux and according to what i learned on CFOP, the case on 12:37 a better algorithm would be: U2 M2 U2 M2 Edit: You should face on the H-like-letter and do U2 M2 U2 M2
Thank you very much for your tutorials - this worked much better for me than the common beginner method, and it was the first time I solved a cube. Now onto practicing ... :)
You know Kian, at first I decided to forget about Roux because I thought EO was very hard and I didn’t use Roux for a long time. But 1 day, when I looked back at Roux, I realized that EO wasn’t really that hard at all!
thanks for this tutorial! i learned the roux method in maybe 4-5 days. i have no experience with speed cubing so this is the first one i learned. quick question: do you have any advanced methods that can make this method faster? thanks again man
Timestamps for my future reference:
For earlier parts of Roux, watch JPerm's video.
Edge Orientation (EO):
4:13 the basic M' U' M' "flips" the "arrow" edges. Note that "flip" means they end up with the correct orientation, but is sent to somewhere else.
Another simple trick is M' U2 M to swap UF and DF without flipping. Use this to swap a good edge with a bad edge to get into an arrow formation.
Technically only need these two algs to solve everything.
9:36 UL UR edges
Put both edges at the bottom using M' U2 M (or M U2 M') and insert appropriately (into opposite corner labels) using M2
11:40 Last 4 edges.
Notes: generated by M and U2; a lot of M moves can be in either direction, as long as you cancel them out in the end
12:13 bars M2 U2 M2 U2
12:33 columns M' U2 M2 U2 M'
13:01 dots E2 M E2 M'
13:38 cycles examples: (3122 block example -- swap the "1" (alone) cubie with M* without breaking the "3") M' U2 M' U2

This needs more likes ?
Oh god, this step is so much harder than the others. You explain it very well but it is still difficult.
It is difficult but you only need a little bit of practice to master this step
Who here is a CFOP cuber but is just bored and wants to learn Roux?

2nd For LSE my left hand only grabs the cube with the thumb and my pinky for iltra fast U2s. Doing ~100 solves a day this really fucks my pinky up.
3rd OH. M slices aren't as bad as everybody says when doing that table thing. I do most of my solves tableless though, and my backpalm table both looks weird and is technically cheating.
4th One month of Roux: ~35 secs with up to 53 secs cause I suck. 4 days of ZZ: ~35 secs on okish solves (havnt times a good one yet) with uo to 51 on bad ones.
Roux is a really fun method, I don't know if it's the right one for me though.
Will you still love me if I don't come back?
PS: also I feel like I do everything the most ineffecient way there is and I do stuff kinda repetitive so stuff like LSE got boring after only a month.
You can't expect your roux skills to be as good as other methods if you've invested less time into it. Work hard and you'll improve. Try holding your pinkie in the air, off the cube
Even tho I'm 2 yrs late thanks a lot Kian I just did it. I know this part is pretty frustrating but once you get it it's so satisfying. Lol
I know how to solve it using CFOP but I think roux is much easier to learn.you're really good in explaining.
You´re a machine cuber, thanks for the tutorial, it´s very good!! I´m ZZ solver and I´m very confortable with that method, but I see some tutorials about Roux, including this one, and it seems a funny method. I don´t know when, but I think that I will try Roux someday :)
have you tried it yet? it's been two years!
5 years later....
All of these were sooo helpful,
thx very much and kepp up the good work 👍
Sir I don't know if you will read these but
I watched many roux EO videos but didn't got it as they all said to learn many alg for different cases and not explain the way it works
But you explaied where the pieces go
Really a big thanks❤
i understand every thing your the best roux is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
as a cfop cuber, i find this kind of intuitive, but it still has its confusing parts like when to use Ms and Us. but you still explained it very well. nice job, keep it up! :)
I mainly use cfop but this taught me many important things. Thanks!
Woo hoo! Cube is solved! Thanks for the tutorial
U r a great teacher.🥳
Thx for teaching me Roux.🥳
Thankyou so much, this is is the best tutorial for roux I have ever seen! This was the only video that I could understand. Good job!
Thanks alot I have learn roux from your method in 1 week
I learned it in 3 days by watching his videos but I had a lot of time.
I learned Roux because i watched these 4 videos. THANKS
After 2 weeks i found this video which really explained l4e!
This is an amazing tutorial! good job!
Thanks, very helpful, tried another tutorial and he never even touched anything you said. If there are any beginners here (like I am), I would highly recommend Kian
I have an alternative solution for the columns case - 12:33 - (M2 F2) (M2 F2) - oriented with the red and orange sides facing you - it could also be (E2 R2) (E2 R2) or (S2 U2) (S2 U2) depending on how you orient the cube. You could also do opposites if it is more ergonomic for you - (M2 B2) (M2 B2) or (E2 L2) (E2 L2) or (S2 D2) (S2 D2).
thanx
I've been trying to learn LSE for such a long time this video is the best it helped me alot! :)
After watching your solves and been a subscriber for awhile, I'm finally Sub-20 CFOP, I think it's time to sit down and learn Roux. These videos are by far the best for anyone trying to learn! Is it bad that for CMLL, I keep finding myself just using OLL algs?
Learn full CMLL, then you won't have that problem haha
@@Kian_Mansour been looking at your website for the past few hours lol block building is gonna take awhile to master. But, sub-1 min already! Gonna stick to Roux for awhile now. I just feel like a badass when solving lmao
@@vicasooo That's awesome dude! Keep up the good work and you'll be sub 30 in no time haha
Keren....sabar bgt ngajarinnya...
Thanks 👍👍👍👍
I finally got it! Some helpful clarifications and tips:
1. dont get tricked by seeing the arrow when the yellow or white dot is not at the top. You need the arrow when the yellow or white is on top. If you solve the arrow when it is not yellow or white on top, then you'll get stuck!
2. Fully solve your cube, then play around with just U2 M2 moves. Usually you can get get to 'pillars' pretty quickly.
MATT LEINWAND thank fuck for this comment
I watched an other tutorial and every other case was well explanted without this, in this video it's really good
I loved this method. I'm having so much fun with it.
Can you teach me? He doesn't explain it very well
I finally overcome the turn the top face white and yellow only, thanks Kian
Idk if you see any of this but this really helped with roux so thanks
Thanks to you, this is the way I solve my cube now.
So how long would it take for you to complete the cube only using methods from step 1~4?
Quick Q. After watching all four of your awesome tutorials, how long would you expect a beginner to take to solve a cube using this method? Thx
2 minutes?
Thanks dude!
Hi! Im a CFOP solver learning Roux and according to what i learned on CFOP, the case on 12:37 a better algorithm would be: U2 M2 U2 M2
Edit: You should face on the H-like-letter and do U2 M2 U2 M2
roux never uses rotation and the extra M' avoids the rotation which is better than rotating and doing U2 M2 U2 M2
Thank you very much for your tutorials - this worked much better for me than the common beginner method, and it was the first time I solved a cube. Now onto practicing ... :)
You know Kian, at first I decided to forget about Roux because I thought EO was very hard and I didn’t use Roux for a long time. But 1 day, when I looked back at Roux, I realized that EO wasn’t really that hard at all!
3:48 Damn that's magic. That's just magic i feel dumb that it works but dang what
Thank you for the Roux tutorial I'm excited to learn this after 8355
This whole tutorial helped me so much and i am now making the move from cfop to roux
Kian is always a good teacher
Awesome bro thanks a lot I finally learned roux method after this video
thanks for this tutorial! i learned the roux method in maybe 4-5 days. i have no experience with speed cubing so this is the first one i learned. quick question: do you have any advanced methods that can make this method faster? thanks again man
