- So here we finish the last layer of this most entertaining of 3x3x3 mods. Hang around for the end, where I pose a new challenge, and answer an old one.
Enjoy! - Навчання та стиль
The lockups on this thing make me go crazy ._.
yeah man, I messed up the last alg like 3 times already because of the damn lockups and had to redo the entire thing, I'm this close to give up on it
Larman sad
Larman I had to redo aswell tho
Generally this just made me realize that I've never solved a 3x3 "properly". Guess I learned speed cubers method and never questioned it.
Ok. I did it. It’s done. And no one is to ever scramble it again. And if someone does. I will die inside.
But also gotta say it’s crazy how it’s just a 3x3 on a tilt it blows my mind 🤯
Thanks a lot! This is the most difficult puzzle I've ever had, but with your useful tutorial, I solved it so easily :)
My brain hurts but I keep watching. Isn't that crazy? Thank you for all tutorials.
Is there some kind of edge parity for the cross cuz I have to edges in and the the other two are flipped correctly but they need to be switched so I don't know what to do
Humberto Nevarez did you ever get an answer for this? I have the same issue rn. :I
I dont't know how vivaldi never noticed this while solving the cube, but there are 3 trapezoid pieces that can also give "false parity." the only real way to solve this is just replacing that part of the bottom cross with the trapezoid in the top and resolving whatever you disturb in the middle layer
@@kotov909 Holy crap, that's what was wrong with mine this entire time. Wow. Thank you so much!
I know how to fix that do the r u r’ u r u2 r’ starting with the one to the right of the long piece then do that algorithm again but start with the long piece that’s how I fixed it
@@jadenenright4677 Hey can you explain like i just don't get it whenever I do this t messes up and I have to pair the long thing with the center again please help i really want to learn the ghost cube and these two pieces are on the wrong side
It took me 5 hours to do it. I'm dead right now (Not dead as in laughing hysterically).
Great, you helped me to solve the ghost cube. It confused me for a long time :)
I'm glad you conquered it. Strong work!
hi you may remember me from the 7x7 question which your video helped a ton btw but i have a problem with the ghost cube this time, i dont know how this is possible but i scrambled the cube and started solving the cube then i was solving the last four corners, i was on the last step and when i did the corner algorithm and there was two corners needed to be swapped. Is there a possible way to fix this?
I wouldn’t touch a 4x4 mirror cube, a 4x4 ghost cube might make me become a ghost
I solved my ghost cube for the very first time with the help of your video! Thanks Antonio :)
+Eran Amara congratulations! This is among the hardest of 3x3 mods :)
This tutorial was rlly helpful :D
Finished! Thanks for the tut!
+Noodlez Way to go!
this really helped me, thank you
Just spent 4 hours doing it and failing the algorithum, reverted back to scrambled state, giving up now and maybe picking it up again in at least a season.
I'm getting so triggered by this last layer 2 across are in but other 2 are impossible to get in. HELP. I checked all the triangles, nothing and yet the two edges are still wrong.
Those "false equivocations" with the little triangular pieces were killing me! Your R2/L2 switcharoo solved that, and I finished my cube. This was by far the hardest 3x3 mod I've ever tried. It took me several hours over several days. I appreciated the difficulty, but I see the possibility of pieces that can be "falsely equivocated" as something of a design flaw. Do you have any thoughts on that? Great video as usual.
Good question, and I think false equivocation is either an inevitable consequence of the puzzles planned design and shape, or an actual pre planned strategy to enhance the challenge. In the former, you can see this with the bubbloid and the megamorphix puzzles, as the look and shape of the puzzle can only be achieved using equivalent pieces. In that way, false equivalency emerges out of the overall shape. In the latter instance, although I can't be sure, I think Ben's Platinum cube (the ghost version of the master skewb) was deliberately designed to confuse and confound the solver, which included two pieces from different orbits that could be equivocated. Either way, it certainly does add a fun dimension of challenge :)
Nice!
Thanks! Finally solved mine.
Very useful video. I don't know why everyone is complaining about edge parities on the 3rd layer. I'm not having any issues.
What do you do if the front and right edges needed to be swapped?
I like the mathematical explanations.
Thank you sir.. You tutorial helped a lot
Is there any way to switch the top and bottom trapezoid pieces without messing up the middle layer?
I think the world needed a detailed tutorial for this puzzle. By the way, do you prefer the puzzle with the two similar corner pieces or you prefer the hand-made version, where every piece is unique? I kinda enjoy the corner "parity" on the last layer.)
I would love to see a walk through solve where the first layer is the of center one as you mentioned on the previous video.
If any of the puzzle manufacturing companies is watching this, I definitely vote for mass producing the master ghost cube.
I enjoy the hand made one because of how smooth it moves, but I have to admit that having that little extra challenge with possible false equivocation makes the mass produced one appealing. I would imagine that the middle layer first solve is a lot like the "Hells cuboid" solve, but I'll give it a whirl :)
which method did you use to solve a standard 3x3? I haven't seen the corner-swapping alg, nor the R/D alg.
hey my every corner piece in the 1st layer perfectly placed but still the corners in the third layer is not getting in correct place
I finally did it! TYSM
I dont really get the last step
on my ghost cube I always have 2 edges solved with the center and 2 that are not and it drives me crazy
Same with mine it is hell
Try solving this with R, U2, R’,U’, R, U’, R’. While holding the correct edges on back and left or back and front depending on what u got
omg youve just saved my life.
@@Dobby396 that's just the same as doing R, U, Ri, U, R, U2, Ri twice, but thanks anyway
Same. No algs are helping me to swap the trapezoid and pencil shaped pieces around. I've been at this for a week. Starting to lose my mind.
Hi, my name is Bruno, i bought this cube a few weeks ago, and i solve the first layer and last layer cross very good.
But I was unable to do the corners of the final layer. I don´t understand the last algorithm, you could send me the algs ? Thanks :D
the algorithm moves the back left corner to the left front corner, the corner parity just swaps the incorrect bottom corner and the incorrect top corner
I have the long piece and the rectangular piece in their correct spots but the house piece and the trapezoid are flipped and are in opposite places. What do I do???
Around 3:10 i got stuck
4 parts of the cross are in the right place (even oriented), but the last piece is upside down.
How do you rotate it without messing up everything else?
EDIT: i just took the cube apart and put it in the right placement. Solved!
I just realized that my first layer and last layer are switched. Do you know how to switch them?
Hi, my name is Michael. I have problems while solving the third layer, I really hope that you can help me. I have created a line, however, the other two edges in opposit side are not being flipped, so how can I create the cross?
The Lego King Do you have a picture of your dilemma?
because the very last r and d part is explained so weird i just fucked up, noice
Okay I have two corner pieces in the right place (making one final side) and oriented correctly and two that are not. I know you said that the problem is that one of them in the bottom but that is impossible for me. I tried replacing the small triangles and they were not flat once they were swapped. I also looked at your old video and you did not state what to do if none of the corners were in the correct placement you were lucky and had one that was fine. I was not lucky and had none and you left me lost. I had never done the corners like that on a 3x3 so I had no idea what I was supposed to do to fix it.
:( everything else was great an all but you literally got me at a stand still.
Oh god... You save my life. Thank you so much!!!! I enjoyed a lot!!!!
Good video. i just did cfop and just did what you said 👌😀
Well I solved this cube now quite a few times, and I just used Fridrich's method for the last layer, and on every solve the center piece oriented itself, after I had solved the "cross".
hey my every corner piece is in correct Peter but still corner piece in the third layer is not getting in the correct place
omg, it took my so long and the dumb 2r 2l thing messed everything up, i dont get it
The top center is rotated 90 degrees I have no idea how to fix it I’ve looked everywhere
im at the last layer cross and i cant get 2 off the piece's which are side by side to switch, help!
Do you have a picture of your dilemma?
Never mind I got it, I made a false move and that triggered all the pieces to mess up thanks
I have sent you an email of my situation, how would I solve it?
DatGuy :D can you help me with that
I have not been able to solve this ghost. I am stuck at the PLL. I got 2 egdes correctly oriented but after doing the FRURiUiFi & RURiURUURi the edges are again twisted
CAN U EXPLAIN WHY?
Do you have a picture of your dilemma?
Colection video plz! Just kidding but you should get a bauhinia dodecahedron: dissasemble it and remove the flashing and you got the best puzzle ever created! Then you can do the same on the eithan's star :)
ok wtf i have 2 in and 2 out and all are flipped correctly
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Help!!!!!!! I am doing the last layer, but 2 of the edge pieces went in as a "L" shape but the other 2 needs to be swapped, I have no idea how to do it. Thanks
+Howie Au Do you have a picture of your dilemma?
SuperAntoniovivaldi How can I send a photo to you?
You can send it to superantoniovivaldi@gmail.com
SuperAntoniovivaldi Ok I'll send it you now, I really want to get this solved, btw thanks
SuperAntoniovivaldi I have sent the email, thanks again :)
Hi what's your 3*3 cube? 😂😂
That needed a lot of nerves, but i finally did it. my problem, i did not see that you turned the cube upside down in the last second before starting the algorithm at 6:45. hmm, i'm just thinking, that shouldn't matter.... hmmmmm. anyway, i threw me off. but finally solved it. now let's train.
these challenges remind me or your back to basics series. this is the next part of it
Good observation! The technique will actually be the same.
I don't understand :( I do my "line" with the long edge and flat edge and I do F R U Ri Ui Fi then sune alg but I only ever get max two edges in... It's really frustrating
Do you have a picture of your dilemma?
+SuperAntoniovivaldi it's ok your urgent puzzle questions video was the answer. So thank you!
omg what about a 13x13 Ghost Cube
dear mr superantoniovivaldi!!!it was another great tutorial!!and the musik in the end was also a good idea!!!but next time dont do the musik so loud because on some points i cant understand what you say!!!!by the way i love your tutorials!!!!best wishes from austria!!!!patrick!!
Thanks Patrick, and I agree about the music. I didn't realize how loud it was! I'm so used to the kids screaming, that everything sounds too quiet :)
Guess I did the impossible. My cube, as it is right now, has two top edges on the correct place in the correct orientation and two top edges with the correct orientation but in the incorrect place. Does it mean i screwed up somewhere else while solving this cube? Because i really have no idea whats going on... xD
in case you still haven't solved it, and youre talking about the last layer, try checking the trapezoid shape and see if it fits in the bottom layer, since two of the 3 trapezoid shapes can fit almost identically in the first layer you make
I can't solve my cube
need help! i think its possible, that the 2 tiles ( doing the cross ) can be opposite and there are the other 2 tile, which are not correctly can be turned upside down! (sorry for bad english) i think you said the reverse on 2:00
i hope you understood my question...
2:20
Hmm, do you have a picture of your dilemma?
SuperAntoniovivaldi yes, maybe i am only stupid and its very easy to solve it but i can't do it :/ but i will send a photo to you on google+ later
OMG I solved it! Thank you so much!
endlich habe ich es geschafft
R U R' U R U2 R'- Edge Rotating algorithm
F R U R 'U' F'- Edge Flipping Algorithm
U R U' L' U R' U' L- Corner Placement Algorithm
Im having trouble solving my cube (been a few days aha). I sent pictures to your email of my dilemma (xfadebass)
Where can i send you the Photo?
you can send to superantoniovivaldi@gmail.com
ok
SuperAntoniovivaldi Did you get the Mail?
ViskoLp It appears your situation is the same as at 2:00. Just do the F R U Ri Ui Fi once, and that should turn them all rightside up.
on 2:23 you can see, that this is another situation... F R U Ri Ui Fi doesn't work
Here is my answer to your 5x5 challenge. This was so akward to film. 5x5 Challenge Answer
Can I have some help please
I have 2 edges correct beside each other (adjacent) HALP!
Do you have a picture of your dilemma?
SuperAntoniovivaldi i have same problem
SuperAntoniovivaldi I have the same problem
J. D. how do you fix?
Ah I see
Thank you. You helped me solve it for the first time!!
I'm having an issue with my Ghost Cube; it seems that in the last layer the top two opposite edges need to be swapped. I'm not sure how to continue, and I would really like to solve it.
This is addressed at around 1:58 in this video. Basically, this happened because the two opposite edges are upside down. The other possibility is that you have an edge in the top layer that actually belongs in the bottom layer. In other words, you falsely equivocated two edges. Look closely at the bottom layer and make sure that all pieces fit exactly.
SuperAntoniovivaldi Thank you for your reply. My Ghost Cube is finally solved!
protocactus SuperAntoniovivaldi I had this issue and I resulted in finding that a triangle corner in the first layer was wrong and had to switch it for the correct triangle corner.
protocactus same
The part at the end where you do the ri di and stuff is way to fast

I HATE THIS STUPID CUBE! I DID THE CORNER SWAP AND IT MESSED UP MY WHOLE CUBE! I GIVE UP
You are doing too fast pls make a tutorial but slower on he last part with the corners
