Not sure at all. Yiheng probably reached his maximum speed. He can in the future improve his speed a little, but not too much. There is a physic limit that the speed of the fingers cant exceed.
To think the start of the year when WR average is 4.48 the big question is : Who will be the one to beat Yiheng Wang Now the question has become : Who can defeat Yiheng Wang cause hes dominating like Max Park on big cubes
It is decently "lucky" as with every other wr but you gotta remember how good he is at multislotting/ pair influencing. Some of the stuff he do are unorthodox and intentional. Like on 3.71 solve, the 2nd pair is set up a nonstandard way (standard is just LU 2 gen spam but he does RLU 3 gen here) to set and cancel the third pair in. And then the next solve, kid gets sub 4 on 60 moves solve with 15+ tps.
if only he wasn't a cheater. it always saddens me when very good athletes cheat to get to the top. most people would dream to be as good as he is WITHOUT cheating, but it's never enough for these people.
Can someone calculate the average G forces on the tips of Yiheng's fingers during that last solve because I am pretty sure those forces could make an F1 driver pass out 🤣
Luck is a part of every sport. The fact is Yiheng Wang is very fast, and he has to process those moves in his brain prior to executing them. Muscle memory related to specific moves is a factor. Another channel has analyzed his solves and he does not always choose the least number of moves possible.
huh. this randomly popped on my feed. I was a speedsolving enthusiast from 2006 to about 2012. I had a sub 30 average with cfop and did a lot of fewest moves with roux and even some basic 20 character string blindfold solve (can't remember the name, was it pockman?). solid 4x4, 5x5, man this is bringing me back. used to shop with meffert's a lot. I remember the myth and hype of the V cube. what is a good cube to get back into things? the game has come a long way. I'm honestly shocked cfop is still used at all.
Great that it came back to you through the video! I’d say there are a lot of good 3x3s for around $10-20 right now, the Rs3m v5 is probably the best cube out there, it has versions from $8-24

You thought I forgot, didn't you? Daily "hate" message for today is that I hate expensive luxury brands (i.e.: Balenciaga).
Part of me thinks that raw tps paired with a less complex method will always the fastest way to speedsolve. The recognition time for basic CFOP will always be faster than full ZB. Maybe solvers will master ZB enough in the future to make the added complexity and more difficult recognition a mute point. But I do wonder. Take for example the solve where he could have done VLS to skip oll and save 3 moves. Sure it's a better solution. But would it have taken him .25 seconds longer to recognize the case? Would looking for things like winter variation/zbll/zbf2l bog down his decision making and recognition time in general?

sure there's luck, but the 3.88 is the most insane solve i've ever seen. it was also his highest movecount of the average executed in 3.88 seconds lmao
It is easy to make a full analisis days later of solves that took 10 seconds of inspection and 3-4 seconds to execute... This is a conditioned definition of luck, it just can be luck if you have 200% ability
15:09 ok tell me if im crazy, but i think solving the last cross edge was incorrect. the blue red pair should have been fat inserted into the back right slot with a wide r' U' R U M (i forget my m m' notation, forgive me if that's backwards). you put the final cross edge on the top left to re-pair the front left slot, take pair out with L' U L, solve the final cross edge and the third pair at the same time with U' F' U' F'. that's the first thing i thought of seeing the case and i think its sick. why break up the pair when you can just not do that even better: you can solve both pairs and the cross edge at the same time by, after pulling the upside down pair out with L' U L, set up the blue orange edge with F', pair with U2, put orange green in with F', set up cross edge with U, insert orange blue edge and cross edge with L F2. but whoever finds that mid solve shall be crowned the next king of england
