    CFOP is very easy to understand visually. Every step creates more solid blocks of color. It doesn't make the most sense as a puzzle solver, but for beginners it actually makes the most sense. Roux is like an optimization of corners first, and I guess that's why it's the most intuitive of the big 3.

    I vividly remember what it was like when those things came out and we were all on our own as far as solving it went. I was an undergraduate math major at Caltech, and quickly pretty much everyone at Caltech had one, and was furiously working at figuring them out. At the time I was taking abstract algebra and we were required to do a term project. I couldn't think of anything interesting to do so went to my professor to see if he had any suggestions. I made the horrible mistake of bringing my cube with me, and when I asked him if he had any ideas for a project he said "The answer is in your hands", so now I not only had to figure out how to solve the damn thing, I had to tie it to group theory instead of just stumbling on a few algorithms and calling it a day or I'd fail abstract algebra. It wasn't as bad as it could have been, because my professor did agree that I could limit myself to the 2x2x2 cube.

    This is what I love about cubing. Sure you can memorize algorithms, and practice to the point of solving the cube in mere seconds. But the satisfaction that comes from actually figuring it out yourself is immeasurable! I've known how to solve a 3x3 for a few years now, but recently challenged myself to learn 4x4 & 5x5. And when I ran into the parity issues that come with reduction, I chose to try and solve it intuitively rather than learning the parity algorithms. And the satisfaction I felt when I finally found something that works made all the struggling worth it!

    Way back in either Christmas '97 or '80 I was given a present of an original Rubik's Cube. I solved it before leaving my basic army training at the back-end of 1980. The first two layers were easy enough although I did the 'F2L' upside down to CFOP. I seem to remember getting the top layer first in place then the sides. Eventually one day the cube came apart and I realised that, after putting it back together, I could work things out backwards. So I did this for a month or so and eventually had a set of moves which allowed me to complete the cube. I guess you might call these 'algs' these days! It was a really slow method of course and very repetitive but none the less worked. In 1981 I had a lucky solve one day where the last layer simply solved itself after the F2L. That one solve is my claim to fame as it was 32 seconds! Was it possibly the fastest up to that point? Considering that the first world record of 22 sec was set in 1982, I like to 'claim' so! By 1982 I was sub 60 sec all the time and I used Vasaline! Well at least my RC was quite quiet! 😂😂😂😂 At the beginning of 2020 I picked up the cube again but could not remember how to do that last layer. I had vague memories, but never really remembered what I used to do. Then one day my fingers just 'did' it! After some 40 years somehow my muscle memory kicked in. Then I found (probably) your channel and converted to the CFOP method. I have had a sub-15 lucky-solve once and at last am back to sub-60 but occasionally am around the sub-30. For me the big issue is all about seeing the colours during F2L. But it is slowly getting better with daily practise! Thank you JPerm for all the hours and hours you have entertained me! All I have to do is practise for the next 37 years so that I get sub-15 by the time of my 100th birthday! 😉

    Damn, you did that relatively quickly. The first time I solved a Rubik's cube it took me 3 days (and I was spending like every spare moment on it). I was determined to solve it without help and I spent a lot of time writing down algorithms (with a really whack notation that I came up with myself and I now realize didn't cover a lot of cases :D). I ended up solving in a more traditional layer-by-layer approach - because the first thing I did when I got it was have a look to figure out how it worked and realizing the cube was made out of layers and not out of faces. Was so proud when I eventually accomplished it.

    I did a challenge like this a while ago and did it completely differently. Instead of banning any algs I knew previously, I only banned ones that I learned, but allowed myself to still use any that I found out just messing around. Because I first figured out how to do one side as a kid I just started with that. After hearing about f2l, I figured out a jank way to do it before learning how to do it properly, so I used that to finish the first 2 layers. For oll, I came up with a 2 flip alg using commutators for the cross, and came up with RU'L'UR'U'L for the corners. Then for pll I broke my first layer, put it back together and redid almost the entire solve to have a very long but working jperm alg. Then I used an edge 3 swap that I found before from just messing around and boom!

    Now that I watch you perform this monumental task (amazing!) - I recall from the early 1980s when I got my first original Rubik's cube as it hit the market, I approached it solving it like you are here. That is, I went for corners first, then edges. I never really figured it out though. I got pretty far, but couldn't figure out say, how to cycle-three edges or two corners etc. I now understand a lot more about cube theory, and Algebraic groups etc. which is very helpful. At at the time back in the 80s, I knew that I had to do a bunch of moves to set the cube up such that the pieces I was trying to manipulate would be located where I KNEW how to be able to perform some operation on them, but ALMOST ALWAYS messed it up and couldn't back out. In other words, I knew intuitively at LEAST about conjugates. I don't think I quite figured out commutators. The deeper problem was I got confused and lost so easily when actually doing the moves. Which brings me to my question here, and something still I have trouble with. You have an amazing ability to be able to recall those conjugates and commutators that you come up with on-the-fly, seemingly without error. You can remember the moves, but more amazingly, you recall their inverse perfectly. Not just once, but repeatedly - with long pauses between execution. Wow! How have you achieved this remarkable ability? Anything special you can suggest to help with building that skill? Thanks so much!

Like how Petrus discovered the Sune, he knew others probably discovered it too, but only he named it so epically. You absolutely deserve that sense of accomplishment.. I learned the x method almost 20 years ago. When i teach ppl how to solve i usually teach that method. From what I've read Rubik solved it with a very similar method.

    I'm super happy that when I sat down to learn how to solve one I didn't look up algorithms or anything specific on how to manipulate the cube. Really the only big hint I got was to look at the cube as pieces instead of tiles. I wound up doing CFOP with algorithms I made up myself. With a lot of my steps being horribly horribly inefficient of course. I didn't have another cube to test stuff on so to keep track of how unsolved pieces moved in relation to other unsolved pieces I had to like extensively write stuff down in a note book. It never occured to me to explore my algorithms on the solved layer ...

    When I had no idea how to solve the last layer of the Rubik's cube, I came across a video where the cube was solved in a different way. Building 2x2x2 blocks and expand it to 2x2x3, leaving one edge free to push up the rest of the edges to the point of solving all the edges leaving several corners unsolved. A few years after I learnt the beginner's method, I came across another video where someone had a tutorial on how to solve a Rubik's cube without memorization, it is the same thing (though he solved the first two layers slightly differently, solving one layer first, then insert three of the edges, leaving one edge to solve all the top edges), he taught me commutators. Eventually I understood how commutators was done. I learnt these from the following channels. Phillip Brocoum thepuzzledmagician

    Kind of straight up 80s CF until cross on all sides. I don't think anyone would even try to do horizontal middle layer moves on a classic 80s Rubik's cube. What I did back then was just the following and a mirrored version to swap around 3 edge pieces, 1 in second layer and 2 in bottom (original move style to allow full palm turns): [ldR'rd'][R'dRr'd'] (probably messed something up in that :) Guess commutators were banned because its known algorithms. Otherwise I think they are more logical path to go, even when trying to figure things out. And you end up calling them 3 piece rotation/swap without messing any other stuff up.

    Your method is actually almost exactly the same the one Minh Thai used in the 1982 World Championship. He would use Ortega to solve the corners, and then solve three edges each in the top and bottom layers, leaving one edge slot open to move the centers and edges around. Then he somehow would get the last two edges and solve the last four edges and centers. I don't quite understand the last step, but I think it's worth looking into.

    You just need to solve both pieces at the same time. First you put one of the pieces in the solve position then you drop it from the slot but you need to drop it in a way that it aligns with the other piece so that when you solve the other piece the drop piece will also be solve. It is the same method of breaking up and solving it another way but the setup is to make sure that dropping one edge aligns it to another edge so they can be solve together.

    I am just learning to do a rubiks cube and I came up with my own step for the final portion. it was pretty fun. it's similar to what you had in the end. what you could have done is act like the solid parts were top and bottom, rotate bottom, side slice x 2, rotate bottom accordingly. then you should have 4 incorrect centers. on a correct center do a slice in each direction rotating the cube every slice. after that align the middle color with the side pieces one at a time with slice moves. and then you should have a solved cube. it's overly complicated but I figured it out myself, and I was so proud.

    The H pattern at the end was one I actually found out intuitively. You want the edges swapped at both sides. If you just swap one edge, the sides are messed up. However you can do it twice/mirror it in some way to solve it. So by putting the left and right down, then swapping the edge, then spinning the top part 180, swap the edge again and basically work like that, you can solve it.

    I have figured it in about 8 hours. You just have to build upon every new concept. Then I solved it for 5 times with an average of 13 min and 30 sec. Basically my experimental playing brought me to a 4 move sequence that allowed me to shift 3 edge pieces in a circular motion. Using this I managed to put all edge pieces in their place and using the same 4 move sequence shifting a "set" of edge pieces another 3 times, the edge pieces would reach the starting position but instead corner pieces would change their positions. It was just a matter of another few hours to figure out exactly what corner piece moves where and in what order to use my movement sequence in order to solve the cube. A very inefficient method, but damn it feels good being able to do it alone and when you do it more than once you really know you've mastered it. My friends who knew how to solve it found it hard to believe, but knowing it was me they accepted it. 🤓 When someone tells you something is impossible dont believe him and take the challenge, if u feel like it ofc
