      fathin maftuh abdullah - it was definitely logic related, how he used jperm on a 3x3 and applied it on a cube with totally different mechanisms, thats just crazy. I just solved the squan for the first time today, watched several tutorials and it took me HOURS, like more than 3 (only following instruction) and I’m still slower than Dylan who does it partially intuitive. So he’s definitely really smart.

      Khánh Nam Nguyễn Cube shape parity. Basically you can avoid parity in every squan solve but there’s a bunch of algorithms for it.

    • @Untoldanimations
      @Untoldanimations 4 роки тому +9

      Steven Nguyen Changing parity is completely intuitive and needs no algs, the hard part is determining in inspection if you need to do your regular cubeshape solution or if you need to change parity. There are 90 cases and sometimes it's different when mirrored in the bottom, so it's effectively learning 180 cases. I used to know them all but now I've forgotten it.

      Ping Pong Cup Shots How do you change parity intuitively. I do know about tracing tho

    • @Untoldanimations
      @Untoldanimations 4 роки тому +2

      @@nguyener14 well you just find somewhere where you can do an odd number of swaps, hence changing parity. If you have 6 corners on one layer, rotating does a 6-cycle (aka 5 swaps). If you can get all 6 corners on the right, slashing does 3 swaps etc. Those are the most obvious ways but by the time you're halfway through CSP you'll learn more ways to do it. By the time I was nearly done all I needed to do to learn a case was do a trace, solve it normally and see if I get parity. If I didn't, I'd remember that. If I did, I'd know to look for somewhere along the way to change parity without even learning the alg :p

I have loved all of your content so far. I saw this upload was a shorter one (I am commenting before actually watching the whole vid btw) and I was wondering if you have ever thought about uploading more raw footage. I personally really enjoy seeing the thought process behind solving complex puzzles and I think you explain your reasoning in a very clear and concise way. Anyway, thank you for your content!

      The parity's easy to avoid if you know 1-Look PLL on a 3x3, or at least can recognize every possible case in 1LPLL.
      If you can't though, then you'll have to deal with parity at the end of the solve and that's much a much nastier alg than the pre-emptive one.

This is a cube I learnt long ago how so solve with a tutorial and later forgot completely how to solve and I have relearnt by myself using my own method based on cuboid algorithms and an edge commutator I created myself. I recorded a tutorial in my channel for this method but, sadly my videos are in Spanish. It was nice to see something like this, a little bit different from your usual (and excellent) tutorials.

    a couple of months after watching this video I bought a Square-1 and remembering nothing from this video I took a 9 month trip of trying to solve it. I usually solve my new cubes with no help and after that I watch a tutorial, but no cube was asa painfull as this one. I solved it 3 weeks ago now and this video got recommended to me today. I also came up with my own Jperm and did every algorithm from it.

    This reminded me so much of when I did the same thing like fifteen years ago. A very similar process of finding out the same things and having similar ideas. The difference was that my algorithm swapped two edges in the top and two on the bottom, so I did setups based on that instead. Solving the corners is really simple, so coming up with an algorithm for edges was all I needed. I think I was little faster at making the cube shape and completing the white and yellow sides(and the corners), but unfortunately I ran into the parity error. I spent like a day trying to solve it despite the parity error, before I conceded that I had to yield the progress I have made thus far. I didn’t just mindlessly scramble the puzzle and hoped I would be lucky with the 50/50 the next time, though; I came up with my own algorithm that 100% fixed the parity error, but returned the puzzle to a scrambled version of the cube shape. After that, it didn’t take too long to fix the whites/yellows, then corners, and finally the edges to complete the puzzle. My reaction was very similar, the feeling of completing a first slice of Square-1 on intuition is less that of satisfaction, and more that of just relief and having a burden released from you. 😂 It’s satisfying in hindsight, of course, but not in the moment!

    I knew the method for solving Square-1 around 10 years ago and now I forgot them all so I tried this. What I found was a brand-new (to me) T-perm that I don't know existed and also works as a J-perm in a Square-1: / U / U' / U' D / U' / U / D' (/ means R2 in 333, right side 180 turn in Square-1). It was overall very fun (probably because I had an experience although long time ago)!

    I figured out how to solve a Square-1 puzzle decades ago. It's interesting that you basically solved it in the same order I worked out, i.e. first make it a cube, then separate the top and bottom corners, then the top and bottom edges, followed by permuting the corners and finally the edges. Except I found shorter ways to do each step and also figured out how to fix a parity problem (which involves swapping three adjacent top corners with three adjacent bottom corners).

  • @RealG2Cuber

    I know I’m super late but i just want to share that you can do a j perm on a square 1 with a shorter alg
    Ja Perm:
    R2 U’ R2 D R2 U’ R2 U R2 U D’ R2 U
    Jb Perm:
    R2 U R2 D’ R2 U R2 U’ R2 U’ D R2 U’
    I don’t know if its faster but it helpful

    I think the N and J-Perm Alg that he used to permute the edges is this with the big slice piece to the right:
    Permute outer layers: / (3,0) / (-3,0) / (3,0) / (-3,0)
    +
    Fix Middle Layer: / (6,0) / (6,0) /
    Outer + Middle Layer Alg: / (3,0) / (-3,0) / (3,0) / (3,0) / (6,0) /
    Add a (1,0) if there's an Nb-Perm or a (0,-1) if there's a Jb-Perm
    This can solve the cube if there's an N-Perm at the top and a J-Perm at the bottom.
    Let me know if this is helpful.
