How to Solve the Rubik's Cube FASTER with the [Beginner Method]
Summary
TLDRThis video provides practical tips for cubers looking to improve their speed using the beginner method. It covers essential techniques such as efficiently solving the cross, optimizing first-layer corner insertion, and speeding up second-layer edge placement. The tutorial emphasizes using left-hand tricks, recognizing shortcuts, and improving lookahead skills to minimize pauses during solves. It also explores advanced tips like being color-neutral and mastering finger tricks for faster cube manipulation. For those looking to upgrade, the video suggests trying out speed cubes, with specific recommendations for beginners, while also introducing the CFOP method for further speedcubing advancement.
Takeaways
- 😀 Practice the beginner method if you're looking to impress friends or improve speed without going too serious. For faster times, consider advanced tutorials.
- 😀 For solving the cross, quickly move pieces to their correct positions by identifying the easiest way to insert them.
- 😀 Use your left hand to help with certain corner insertions, reducing the number of moves needed for some cases.
- 😀 When solving the first layer corners, minimize moves by adjusting your approach depending on the position of the white sticker.
- 😀 If the white sticker is on the front, you may need to repeat moves multiple times, but using your left hand can speed up the process.
- 😀 Learn to recognize when the edge is already solved to avoid undoing it during corner insertion.
- 😀 For the second layer, solve flipped edges with efficient algorithms such as 'r2, u2, r2'.
- 😀 Improve speed by recognizing the positions of pieces in advance, reducing pauses by planning ahead.
- 😀 Color neutrality can speed up the process by allowing you to choose the best cross color for each scramble.
- 😀 Master finger tricks and use a good speed cube to maximize your efficiency and reduce reliance on wrist turns.
- 😀 Consider trying a magnetized cube for stability, like the Yushin Kylin V2M, especially if you're new to speed cubing.
Q & A
What is the focus of the video?
-The video focuses on tips to improve speed for beginners learning how to solve a Rubik's Cube. It provides methods for getting faster without diving into more advanced techniques.
What is the beginner method for solving the Rubik's Cube?
-The beginner method is a simplified approach that helps new solvers learn how to solve the cube step by step, starting with the cross and progressing to the first layer, second layer, and eventually the last layer.
How can you quickly move a piece into the cross during the first layer?
-You can move a piece into the cross by identifying the easiest direction for it to move into its correct position, then moving the entire cross back into place after inserting the piece.
What is the trick for inserting corners with the white sticker on the right side?
-When the white sticker is on the right side, you only need to perform the four moves once to insert the corner into its correct position.
How do you handle inserting corners when the white sticker is facing up?
-If the white sticker is facing up, you perform the four moves with an extra top turn to bring it into position, repeating the necessary steps afterward.
What should you do if a corner is already in place, but it unsolves an edge when inserted?
-To avoid unsolving an edge, you should move the corner away before performing the usual four moves to insert it, which will preserve the solved edge.
What is the trick for solving flipped edges in the second layer?
-For a flipped edge in the second layer, you can perform a sequence of moves (r2, u2, r2, u2, r2) to solve the flipped edge efficiently.
How can you solve two opposite edges in the last layer?
-To solve two opposite edges, you can perform the standard algorithm once, then use the same algorithm again after turning the top layer with your left hand.
What is the strategy for dealing with one solved corner and the others unsolved?
-When you have one solved corner, you check if any sticker from that corner matches the side color. If it does, you will need to perform the algorithm twice; if not, the algorithm only needs to be performed once.
How can you speed up the final corner-twisting step in the solve?
-To speed up the corner-twisting step, you can use the reverse of the usual four moves algorithm, performing it twice instead of four times, which saves time during the final stage.
Why is using a good speed cube important for learning finger tricks?
-A good speed cube allows for faster turns with less effort, making it easier to practice finger tricks and avoid slower wrist turns. This improves overall solving speed and efficiency.
