I can solve the cube in less than 20 seconds. Was learning to solve it blindfolded but gave up because the letter pair list was so big. I will watch this video tomorrow and get back to the grind.
Create your own letters. Write letters in piece of paper and pick to papers and create a word really fast. You choosed something scary, that's why you gave up ;)
@@saitanishqgeniusiq1705 I think Jperm's video did really good , I got my first bld solve last week with this , m.th-cam.com/video/ZZ41gWvltT8/w-d-xo.html
Great video! I was skeptical at the beginning but I wanted to give it a shot. Ordered myself a cube after watching this video and after practicing for a week or so, I did my first blind solve 2 days ago. As a beginner, it's quite astonishing! Thanks mate.
I have watched several tutorials about this but none worked, i lost motivation but said to myself one last video before I give up. I understand how it's supposed to work but haven't managed it quite yet. Thank you so much!
The first time I came across your channel was when you showed the PAO system for remembering a deck of cards. I couldn't believe it was possible for some ordinary person like myself to do that, until I tried it and was absolutely mind blown when I remembered a full shuffled deck. Now I see this, and I'm for sure going to try blindfold cubing as well!
I first saw this video yesterday (16/01), I'll try to learn it asap and will be posting updates: 17/01 - Memorized both algorithms by repeating them over and over and getting the feeling of "what should I move next?" 23/01 - Haven't been practicing much, hence the time gap. Today was the first time I was able to grasp the idea of setting up the edge pieces to go to the swap zone (and setting them up in the right orientation). It was my first edge pieces solve (*not bld obviously) 12/02 - It's been a while since I last practiced 💀 I already got acquainted with solving the edge pieces and getting the right letters in the right places, haven't tried memorizing the pieces yet though. I have been practicing the corner pieces separately to get a better acquaintance with this step. 13/02 - First time trying to put everything together and solve without looking at the cube (but I was looking at the letters). I actually had not noticed that I completely ignored the concept of cycles. Since I wasn't trying to write down the letters and solve without looking at the cube, it wasn't something I had to think about, therefore, during the notation of the letters I have found difficulties with opening and closing cycles. My edge solve had only 1 step not done , as if I forgot to note one letter (The White /Red and the Orange/ Green). My corner solve had two corners swapped (Yellow/ Blue/ Red and Yellow/ Green/ Red) with swapped edge pieces as well (Since there wasn't parity I believe I skipped one letter or something idk). 18/02 - Today was almost my first ever solve blindfolded. I got the wrong side of an edge piece (Blue/Red) and when I finished blue/red and white/red were flipped. I was very happy with what I got nonetheless. I'm already pretty comfortable with moving the pieces to the swap zone (or buffer zone I don't remember which is which). For memorizing the letters, I'd say it's one of the easiest parts if you are creative enough. You don't need to only think about words like: BK = Burguer King, you may as well memorize jokes. The weirder the better. For KQ I memorized Kanye QUEST (instead of West), it made sense in my mind so I went along with it. I haven't learned the parity algorithm yet because I'm procrastinating lol. 22/02 - Memorizing has still been the easiest part. I uhhh, I haven't been practicing that much but something I can tell: It's not only good to warm up with the moves but it may be a good idea to have another cube in case you're not confident with the algs mid solve. Not having the visual aspect of an algorithm has proved to be a crucial part of it for me. At times I mess up some movement because my cube got stuck (It's not magnetic and doesn't have anywhere good corner cutting) and it'll mess up the whole solve. Anyways, repeating the alg over and over is inevitable to master them definitively. 13/03 - Throughtout the very rare ocasions I have practiced bld cubing again, I have always been getting something wrong. I'm in that blank phase of practicing where I know I CAN do it bld (and I guess that's why I don't feel the urge to practice anymore) but always get that one letter wrong lmao. I have tested it today and I noticed that I am getting some letter wrong when solving the corners. I was supposed to have finished this "challenge" like, 1 month ago. 18/03 Lost a bet with my father that I could do it lmao. But the grind never stops I have consistenly been getting the buffer piece flipped, with leads me to thinking that: the memo part, the algs and even getting the pieces to the swap zones and getting them back to the place have been all things I'm doing right. The one mistake I believe I'm making is getting some faces of a corner piece confused and swapping them. I'm practicing about 2 solves every 2 or 3 days. Some minutes after this comment I tried a bld solve taking a little more caution wirh the corner solve AND I HAVE DONE IT LET'S FCKING GOOOOOOOOOO
Hi Nelson, I am facing issues while creating sequences for both edges and corners. Specially when few pieces are already in place. Can you please make a video on guidance on setting the sequence using different scenarios?
That's because there was a setup move before doing the algorithm. You can see when I'm done, it goes back to green. I rotate the middle slice (and L) to get the A sticker down to the bottom layer, do a D' turn, then an L2 turn to get it into the D sticker position (the swap zone). Then I can do the algorithm. And when I'm done, I UNDO those setup moves (putting that green side back in front of me).
I actually realized just from thinking and experimenting that....it's also possible to use the Old Pochmann blindfold method using nothing but Jb perms, or even Tperms, as well as others including the modified Yperm which all 3 are commonly used in the Old Pochmann method. I noticed that, although it's not for speed cubing, I realized that even though Jperm and Tperm are taught for edges, meanwhile the Yperm is used on the corners, that any of these 3 algs can be also used interchangeably. For example, Tperm or Jperm can be used for both edges and even the corners too, as long as the buffer and target concepts are used. I noticed also that many people think the buffer and the target are written in stone, however, using Speffz lettering scheme for example, B doesn't have to be the buffer. You can even switch whenever you want B and D being the target or buffer at will, as long as you don't mess up the correct pieces on each side when doing setup and unsetup moves. I like to use Tperm and Jperm for not only the edges but also for the corners using usually B as the buffer for corners, and C as the target. This way, for people who aren't interested in speed, we can solve blindfolded now with just one algorithm! All Tperms or even all Jperms. As for parity, just do a DAD and that eliminates the need for Ra perm
Thanks for the video by far the best explanation of op on the 3x3. I just learned how to blindfold solve 2x2 for anyone trying to learn like me a tip that i gelt really helped me was writting the letter on each piece
This has to be the best intro to one of your videos ever if not the best intro to a video period !! Going back through some of your older stuff and missed this one it is so great. Then I went out and bought a cube the same day. Maybe I missed this in your first 2x2 video. But do you have a slowed down explanation of the Algorithm like the t perm and what it consists of as far as the turns. I’ve been looking for other videos online as well to slow it down so that I can get the hang of it just to learn it. Not finding what I’m looking for but will keep looking. Total newbie and trying to get it down. Keep the videos coming alway enjoy your content. Because of you I started memorizing cards a year ago and reading more books !! Thank you !
Honestly, sometimes the best way to truly understand this is to set up the cube exactly as I have it and physically do the same steps I show you for the example. Holding it in your hands and seeing the pieces move can help.
This is like the best tutorial for blind, or it would be if it explained what to do when your piece goes back to the buffer. That example solve was like insanely lucky and most people won’t get that in normal circumstances.
Did you see the link the description for more example solve walkthrus? I don’t remember if it had one of those cases but I believe it did. Check it out!
The best way to memorize algorithms is by muscle memory, instead of memorizing by head. Don't look at the cube and repeat the algorithm for like one hour. No normal memorization needed and it's a lot faster. Also you will make the cube faster this way
@@hugoantunesartwithblender yes, but having a mental spreadsheet to refer back to initially would be great so I don’t have to keep pulling up videos, webpages and such. Also I just enjoy the memorization 🙂. I feel trigger moves could be explained more thoroughly and we could make quite a bit more of them. Ex: for any recurring 3 or 4 move sequence we can create an image, and chunk that into a more succinct link which we can then memory palace and such
Also if that system could be executed well enough, we could teach someone in person within ..maybe an hour at a Con. Good ol storytelling and camaraderie 🙂
@@Dipovinnana Me too but even then you can memorize by head really great, its a waste of time and speed. ONce is in muscle memory you can already make the moves faster. If you try by head you will need to recall, do, recall do and will take a lot more time. The parity move i memorized it in 5 minutes, i dont have to think about it. Not only that, you need the fresh memory to memorize the cube when blindfolded
@Paul Westbury I know you might not want to hear it but Hugo is right, muscle memory is the way to go. If you want to do it with mnemotechnics anyway, I recommend you make your own. Since muscle memory is widely accepted as the best way to learn algs, I’d say it’s very unlikely someone makes a detailed video about how to use them. Muscle memory has some great benefits so I’d definitely go for that if I were you. Good luck!
Why am I getting Jperm vibes lol? Nice job! I'm still learning for over a month and cant wait to finally achieve my first blind solve, wait a minute do i see bozo or 3 style method in the demo? if you can, can you please teach it?
Please make an entire series of memory master class on Skillshare!! It'll be more affordable than most of the courses out there. And from what I heard it could be very profitable for the teacher too!
Nice tutorial! Are you going to learn 3style? Because I think that with your capabilities of memorising stuff you could be really fast at 3bld, even if you would just learn turbo for edges, you could actually be sub1 or faster :-)
@@NelsonDellis Nice! If you would need any advice during learning, you can join the BLD Support Group on Facebook, there are lots of skilled and helpfull people there :-)
So I’m just wondering, how do you know which edge goes to which letter and the same thing with the corner. If it’s an edge how do you know which of the two letters to bring it to?
It took me 2 weeks, roughly 6 hours. Had 3 succesful solves yesterday after 9 or 10 attempts. Just stick with it and make sure you know all the algorithms really well.
I can solve a Rubik's cube, but I doubt I'll ever be able to do it blindfolded. I'll try my best to learn though. It just seems too super human 4 me. I'm pissed that it even be done 😆. However, after watching this video, I think I can actually do this with some practice. Who can recommend a good speed cube for me? I know cubing has improved alot and I need to buy a decent cube, I only have an old Rubik's brand and it's horrible at turning.
Hey Nelson, I was just curious about what ever happened to your blindfold solve training progress? I remember you wanted to move on to 3 style or orozco. I finally mastered Old Pochmann method and I'm just now starting on M2 for the edges, but I haven't got it down quite yet. I don't think I'll get to 3 style, I'm busy and it's a bit much. I'm not terribly interested in speed, I'm just happy to be able to blind solve. I take around 5 to ten minutes cause memo is what takes me the longest as compared to execution. It would be nice to see you put out a new video about your progress on your blindfold solving.
So nice content Nelson! Ive been following ur channel for a long time. Keep it up Btw, is there any mail where we can contact u? I have some doubs in some memory techniques... If u could help would be amazing!!
I have a question when I do it I tried it myself and I did all the edges but none of them were facing the right way how do I make it face the right way?
I can do it now from time to time, however I usually mess up and I know where. It's when it's time to undo the moves to get pieces into the buffer zone. I'll get them in with no problem but then I usually forget how to do the reverse for some reason.
I have a question when memeorizing the letters what letter do I go off of or does it matter? For example the red blue white peice is N,Q,C so which letter do I memorize or does it matter, thanks.
😢 I can’t even follow along and I know how to solve the cube. I couldn’t imagine trying to understand this at all if I didn’t know how to solve a cube. I can figure out the pairs, but remembering them is not possible as I cant “see” them in my mind to even know where I am. I can’t even do this if I’m looking. I mess up directly on the first pair. I know the T and Y perms already, but I somehow mess up when I’m trying to do them AND remember even one setup move. It’s amazing that anyone can do it!
This comment is a month old but if you still want to try 3bld Mark Boyanowski has video on memorizing with Aphantasia th-cam.com/video/339Fo3MJzpw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Iy4baH6Qtd-DALzW
Very nice, thank you! Never done that but will give it a try. My first reaction after watching your explanations was it was perhaps a bit more complicated than necessary. I think it would be way easier to simply assign a two digit number to each square. For example, you could have 1 2 3 (first row), then 4 5 6 (middle) and 7 8 9 (bottom). Then each face has also a number, say 9 for top, 0 for bottom, 1 for left 2 for right, etc...so on the left, each square is numbered 11 to 19, on top its 91 to 99 etc. Then with a 00-99 PAO it's a piece of cake...or at least much easier than to remember what letter correspond to each square, then make up words with the letter etc...using the PAO is more natural and easier to remember I believe, and you don't have to memorize a new system to get it done! But I suppose there are other reasons why you chose to do it this way...Me? I am just lazy and always try to use recipes I already know when possible ;)
Using a letter scheme and letter pairs is widely considered to be the best way of memorizing for BLD. Of course you can do it anyway you want to but your way sounds a little overcomplicated and not as practical.
@@nffsagrisen693 Maybe, but I remain to be convinced. Unless you don't already have a two digit PAO in which case setting it up might indeed seem overcomplicated for this...Our expert Neslon might have an opinion on this?
Hey Patrick. Great question. As @nffsagrisen said, years of work ahead of my time has gone into mastering memorization methods for solving a rubik's cube blindfolding and it seems the lettering scheme is what is used almost (to my knowledge) completely. I like your idea of using numbers, but using your numbering scheme you'd be memorizing twice as many numbers (although if you know your system well enough it might not really matter). For two stickers you can make a short one syllable word out of the two letters, were in your case it would be 4 digits (person-action). If you came up with PAO for letter pairs, that would be pretty powerful stuff and you could lower the amount of images needed. Either way, I think the memo part of this whole process is actually the easiest part. So making it "a bit easier" is just marginally easier, in my eyes. Try it though! Let me know how it goes. I'm curious.
one thing i’m confused about.. there’s multiple letters for one corner/edge for example there’s a corner with the letters c, j, and m. so how do you know which letter to use
Great question. You have to veer away from thinking of the pieces as their own thing and start thinking of the STICKERS as their own thing. So even though a corner is the same, if you think of each sticker on that corner as it’s on thing, that’s all you care about when orienting the correctly. Think about it like this: getting the corner piece in the right corner doesn’t necessarily mean you have solved that corner correctly, right? You need the orientation of the three colors of that corner to be correct. Hence the separate letters.
@@NelsonDellis thanks! now that i think abt it i think i got confused and had white facing me, i’ll try it out again, also i’ll be using the other vid for practice so i’ll keep it in mind, thanks! edit: great vid and very well explained btw, thanks for making it!
@@antoinelefaucheur Ahhh yeah true I'm wrong. But the shades are that of the GAN RS, which was what was important to the original commenter. There's also the possibility it's one of the GAN M's. There are too many GAN cubes haha.
That t perm finger tricks looked so wierd, and that alg is not a y perm, the real y perm has an F at the beginning and F’ at the end, but yeah, it’s a modified y perm and a swap to C
Altought i can solve it in 30 seconds average, never tried to make it blindfolded xD But the best tutorial i saw on this for sure. By the way, a advice to memorizing the algoritms. The best way i found for me is making the algorith witouth looking to the cube. You will putt them faster into memory then memorizung the algorith by head
@@DamagedDingo Well, not neccecarily. If you practice drilling the algorithm in front of a computer with it, eventually you'll start remembering it well enough to do it without the computer. You could also remember the algorithm as taking out the front right pair, inserting it back in, then taking the front left pair out and putting it back in to get an idea of what the general algorithm looks like.

@@puckry9686 Yo
Amazing reason... Please do more I want to be the best in Zambia
Oh hey, I found out about you first because I watched you on the brain China when in 2015. That was when I was grade 5, now I’m grade 12.
I finally did it, took roughly 6 hours of work.
aaaa thank you for this tutorial I'm finally able to do this blindfolded
The amount of times I had to solve the cube just to remember the algorithms 😭
Why am I getting Jperm vibes lol? Nice job! I'm still learning for over a month and cant wait to finally achieve my first blind solve, wait a minute do i see bozo or 3 style method in the demo? if you can, can you please teach it?
Great video
Please make an entire series of memory master class on Skillshare!! It'll be more affordable than most of the courses out there. And from what I heard it could be very profitable for the teacher too!
Thank you very much Nelson!
It helps me a lot
Thanks a lot for this video 🙏
Nice tutorial! Are you going to learn 3style? Because I think that with your capabilities of memorising stuff you could be really fast at 3bld, even if you would just learn turbo for edges, you could actually be sub1 or faster :-)
That's the plan! Working on it :)
@@NelsonDellis Nice! If you would need any advice during learning, you can join the BLD Support Group on Facebook, there are lots of skilled and helpfull people there :-)
@@NelsonDellis 3style all the way
@@NelsonDellis hello nelson are you Meet Dominic o brien
Lots of love from Nepal
4:56 man those fingertricks
You should change your algorithm fingers tricks it will make you faster
Best tutorial
So I’m just wondering, how do you know which edge goes to which letter and the same thing with the corner. If it’s an edge how do you know which of the two letters to bring it to?
Thank you very much!
It good
did you use different algs on your solve (demo section)
How long did this take you to learn? I want to learn this myself and get a rough idea of how long it will take with consistent practice.
It took me 2 weeks, roughly 6 hours. Had 3 succesful solves yesterday after 9 or 10 attempts. Just stick with it and make sure you know all the algorithms really well.
I can solve a Rubik's cube, but I doubt I'll ever be able to do it blindfolded. I'll try my best to learn though. It just seems too super human 4 me. I'm pissed that it even be done 😆. However, after watching this video, I think I can actually do this with some practice. Who can recommend a good speed cube for me? I know cubing has improved alot and I need to buy a decent cube, I only have an old Rubik's brand and it's horrible at turning.
Hey Nelson, I was just curious about what ever happened to your blindfold solve training progress? I remember you wanted to move on to 3 style or orozco. I finally mastered Old Pochmann method and I'm just now starting on M2 for the edges, but I haven't got it down quite yet. I don't think I'll get to 3 style, I'm busy and it's a bit much. I'm not terribly interested in speed, I'm just happy to be able to blind solve. I take around 5 to ten minutes cause memo is what takes me the longest as compared to execution. It would be nice to see you put out a new video about your progress on your blindfold solving.
I put it on pause for a bit but plan to revisit it. My fastest was like 2m50s
I feel so sad. This video has so few views compared to his other videos
haha don't feel bad, tis the way of the youtube algorithm
@@NelsonDellis Yup!!
So nice content Nelson! Ive been following ur channel for a long time. Keep it up
Btw, is there any mail where we can contact u?
I have some doubs in some memory techniques... If u could help would be amazing!!
I have a question when I do it I tried it myself and I did all the edges but none of them were facing the right way how do I make it face the right way?
I can do it now from time to time, however I usually mess up and I know where. It's when it's time to undo the moves to get pieces into the buffer zone. I'll get them in with no problem but then I usually forget how to do the reverse for some reason.
Great. Vid it helped me a lot
I have a question when memeorizing the letters what letter do I go off of or does it matter? For example the red blue white peice is N,Q,C so which letter do I memorize or does it matter, thanks.
You would memorize the letter that the price before would go do if you use any other letter it will flip the peice.
using m2 in the blindfold at 13:40 ?
im confused about what colors do we use to dictate the letters, like is white going to dictate b or is orage going to dictate L
😢 I can’t even follow along and I know how to solve the cube. I couldn’t imagine trying to understand this at all if I didn’t know how to solve a cube.
I can figure out the pairs, but remembering them is not possible as I cant “see” them in my mind to even know where I am.
I can’t even do this if I’m looking.
I mess up directly on the first pair.
I know the T and Y perms already, but I somehow mess up when I’m trying to do them AND remember even one setup move.
It’s amazing that anyone can do it!
This comment is a month old but if you still want to try 3bld
Mark Boyanowski has video on memorizing with Aphantasia

I'm a speedcuber who can do the cube in 15 seconds, but know I decided i want to do blinfolded, so I'm gonna watch this tutorial
Wow it’s awesome way
When I do the t perm to switch the edges and solve the edge sometimes the edge will be flipped how do we fix that?
Big fan here sir...
Very nice, thank you! Never done that but will give it a try. My first reaction after watching your explanations was it was perhaps a bit more complicated than necessary. I think it would be way easier to simply assign a two digit number to each square. For example, you could have 1 2 3 (first row), then 4 5 6 (middle) and 7 8 9 (bottom). Then each face has also a number, say 9 for top, 0 for bottom, 1 for left 2 for right, etc...so on the left, each square is numbered 11 to 19, on top its 91 to 99 etc. Then with a 00-99 PAO it's a piece of cake...or at least much easier than to remember what letter correspond to each square, then make up words with the letter etc...using the PAO is more natural and easier to remember I believe, and you don't have to memorize a new system to get it done! But I suppose there are other reasons why you chose to do it this way...Me? I am just lazy and always try to use recipes I already know when possible ;)
Using a letter scheme and letter pairs is widely considered to be the best way of memorizing for BLD. Of course you can do it anyway you want to but your way sounds a little overcomplicated and not as practical.
@@nffsagrisen693 Maybe, but I remain to be convinced. Unless you don't already have a two digit PAO in which case setting it up might indeed seem overcomplicated for this...Our expert Neslon might have an opinion on this?
Hey Patrick. Great question. As @nffsagrisen said, years of work ahead of my time has gone into mastering memorization methods for solving a rubik's cube blindfolding and it seems the lettering scheme is what is used almost (to my knowledge) completely. I like your idea of using numbers, but using your numbering scheme you'd be memorizing twice as many numbers (although if you know your system well enough it might not really matter). For two stickers you can make a short one syllable word out of the two letters, were in your case it would be 4 digits (person-action). If you came up with PAO for letter pairs, that would be pretty powerful stuff and you could lower the amount of images needed.
Either way, I think the memo part of this whole process is actually the easiest part. So making it "a bit easier" is just marginally easier, in my eyes.
Try it though! Let me know how it goes. I'm curious.
@@NelsonDellis WOuld you accept the challenge of doing at least4 cubes blindfolded? ;)
@@hugoantunesartwithblender Yes! That sounds fun! I've never tried any multiblind. I'll need to buy some more cubes first haha.
Tip: Solve the first solve looking at the cube to see if you can do it. Then if your confident do it blindfolded
one thing i’m confused about.. there’s multiple letters for one corner/edge for example there’s a corner with the letters c, j, and m. so how do you know which letter to use
Great question. You have to veer away from thinking of the pieces as their own thing and start thinking of the STICKERS as their own thing. So even though a corner is the same, if you think of each sticker on that corner as it’s on thing, that’s all you care about when orienting the correctly. Think about it like this: getting the corner piece in the right corner doesn’t necessarily mean you have solved that corner correctly, right? You need the orientation of the three colors of that corner to be correct. Hence the separate letters.
Awesome
It’s easy to memorize the letters because they are in alphabetical order ❤❤❤
How is it that once I solve the edges the corners get shuffled?
Thank you so much. I already wanted to learn how to solve blind folded.
this really helped but I was wondering what I do if the piece is in the buffer zone and it is flipped
If the piece is in the buffer zone and it is flipped, just ignore it. It will be solved once all the other pieces of that piece type are solved
i wonder if anyone legit learned bld from this without knowing how to solve a cube yet 🤔
everytime i try to solve an edge, its in the right spot but its flipped. How do i prevent that?
Nevermind i figured it out.
Guess what, I like your video and I also like the cube
i think the example scramble in the description is wrong
Hey, I just triple-checked. Works for me. Make sure you have white on top, green facing you when you do the alg.
@@NelsonDellis thanks! now that i think abt it i think i got confused and had white facing me, i’ll try it out again, also i’ll be using the other vid for practice so i’ll keep it in mind, thanks!
edit: great vid and very well explained btw, thanks for making it!
@@NelsonDellis Me too, The example scramble is for 13:41 , not for the Full example
Brk i dontgetit the letter part is confusing me its hard to memorize and i cant finish the tutorial
Wich cube is that? I love that green color
I know this is super late and stuff but it's either the Gan 356 X or Gan 356 XS.
Actually it has no magnets so it has to be the GAN 356 R
@@antoinelefaucheur Ahhh yeah true I'm wrong. But the shades are that of the GAN RS, which was what was important to the original commenter. There's also the possibility it's one of the GAN M's. There are too many GAN cubes haha.
@@antoinelefaucheur ikr color scheme looks very nice and sohnds very satisfying
it is the old version of the Gan RS -> the Gan R... it isn't avabiable anymore
That t perm finger tricks looked so wierd, and that alg is not a y perm, the real y perm has an F at the beginning and F’ at the end, but yeah, it’s a modified y perm and a swap to C
Altought i can solve it in 30 seconds average, never tried to make it blindfolded xD But the best tutorial i saw on this for sure. By the way, a advice to memorizing the algoritms. The best way i found for me is making the algorith witouth looking to the cube. You will putt them faster into memory then memorizung the algorith by head
You should watch the cube because than you can memorise what your doing with the pieces
@@harperscott7166 Dont agree, the fast way to memorize algorithms is by muscle memory
5:15
I JUST HAVE SOMETHIN IN MY MIND WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCC BRUU-
Guys that’s not a y perm, it’s a variation of it, the real y perm starts F and ends with F’, this doesn’t have those moves
13:17
I will get cube as soon as possible xD
Anybody plz learn me how to solve cube at blindfold plzzz
How to remember the algorithm though? So many duplicate letters that it all gets scrambled.
Try to get it into muscle memory instead of just memorizing the notation.
@@isacubes but I need to remember the algorithm before I can train muscle memory
@@DamagedDingo Well, not neccecarily. If you practice drilling the algorithm in front of a computer with it, eventually you'll start remembering it well enough to do it without the computer. You could also remember the algorithm as taking out the front right pair, inserting it back in, then taking the front left pair out and putting it back in to get an idea of what the general algorithm looks like.
great vid but thats not a y perm
-21:11
5:15 that’s not what a y perm is
