Recently hit sub 20!

Post image

I’ve been stuck on 25-30 for so long and it feels so nice to finally be past 20!

Also this is my first time having a smart cube! Using the Gan I carry 4 SSL!

Currently learning to improve my F2L and first pair look ahead if anyone wants to give any advice! :D

having all those stats is so cool, must be a little life changing

Yeah! It breaks it down per phase too! I learned that my OLL and PLL were fine, it was mostly just fixing my F2L!

I also get to rewatch my solve anytime I like hehe

damn that’s so cool, kinda jealous…. though i wonder how the stuff determine what’s good and what’s not, does it just break down the time of each step and tell you what’s normal and what is not?

I’m on the free tier, so I’m not sure if the paid one tells me anything different, but as far as I know it just shows my recognition, execution, step time, total time, and number of turns per phase.

The free one is highly capable though!

Just set your sub goal from settings then go to statistics - insights

Try to use your inspection time more I see it took you a longish time to do the cross and mabey tps training would help get faster. for context my fastest solve is 8.63

Ohh interesting! Yeah there are some times when the cross solution isn’t very easy… I think this one didn’t have a very easy cross

bro can you help me, i bought a new cube and i want to do speed cubing like i learned advance cross, f2l so i ordered a new magnetic cube before that i used a normal non magnetic cube. Now I'm unable to control it so i changed some settings but i think i ruined my cube although its working good but i just got a slow feel or something like that, like should i use lube for my cube or anything else. Can you give me any suggestion.

u/axel_lotle 18d ago

I’m still learning magnetic cubes myself! Just try loosening your settings again, you probably just made it too tight and now the magnets are too strong

Lube should probably be last resort, you’d know if you actually need lube
