How to Solve a 4x4 Part 1

[1KatrinaRider]

Just spreading the word I wish to be a singer will anyone support me and spread my video around and give it good ratings? Please? I love music and being able to preform has always been a dream of mine, thanks.

[CODxXeliteXx]

you are the best , better than memyselfandpi, pogobat, taskenspiller, ANYONE thanks to you i beat my record i love your explanations

[TheChaseman1997]

this helped so much...

[TheLibertyShadow]

@DaCube1019

I didn't get it as well. So i'm going on solving the edges like before.

But yeah, it would be very useful to explain it a little bit better and to solve it slower.

This is a TUTORIAL!!!

[DaCube1019]

Could you go into more detail for the 2-pair because u cant expect us to just know what your doing.

[blindbiker22]

Blue mustard blood would be gross,and oddly colored

[blindbiker22]

I just repeat green on top,YRWO

[AwestruckYvonne]

haha thats funny how yo udo the blue, mustard, blood thing. i actually do the same thing, except its just red, then, white, then blue :) like the american flag. just a bit simpler lol

[Sprtsfn344]

you have to EXPLAIN WHAT YOU ARE DOING so hard to understand when you just flip a bunch of rows and expect us to follow along

[sportstackingwiz1]

222223rd

[CuberBuzz]

Thumbs up if you're the 222222nd viewer!

[TheJjman713]

So far this is my favorite 4x4 tutorial.

[timberswiss3]

The method that you are using is called reduction.

[inspironxxxcccxxxccc]

FK THIS FKIN MAN WHO SOLVIN THIS FKIN CUBE

[AllisonEunice14]

the only problem I have in learning on how to solve a 4x4 rubiks cube is when they say to solve it like a 3x3. I dont know what they mean

[CuberBuzz]

That's not what two gen means.

[blackzabbathfan]

i make centers that way, i do 6 edge pairing but i don't know full fridrich and i do 2:30 solves on average. does anyone have any tips to get sub-2

[sportstackingwiz1]

Please make a revised tutorial

This ones kinda hard to follow

[AlexEttelis]

I LOVE YOU MAN, thanks alot.

[Guinepigsrock]

what cube is that

[speedcubie]

the method is reduction

[SpeedStackinGuy96]

instead of 2 gen, can we just solve edges one by one?

[kozskate]

@SpeedStackinGuy96 Yeah watch rob h's beginners tutorial

[natno]

useless. i can't figure out how to get the working edges.

[v1blue]

mine went really weird.i got blue/green, orange/yellow, white/red. can anyone help?

[T3hbassmasta]

re-solve the centers so that its yellow/white blue/green red/orange. look at it as if your red is on the right. looking at it like this white faces you and blue on top. that will help.

[1994janlei1994]

Reduction method

[kippstudley]

I got the centers, but the rest wasn't very clear. You move it a bit too fast. I stop it and play it back but it is still hard to follow...

[twistnturn44]

NEVER

LEARN

FROM

ONLY

ONE

TUTORIAL

[DrakeH153]

im just gonna give up

ive been working on this all day and i havent gotten more than three centers

in fact, i only got three centers once

and never again

i just got it today and i was looking for Dan's video

and guess wat?

ITS GONE JUST WEN I NEED IT THE MOST i just saw it like two weeks ago

do u guys know how sad i am?

[TheCubelord]

i cant do 2 gen omg its hard

[rista34]

YOU FREAKIN RULE!

[skatetoguitar]

can someone please tell me how to get all the centers?? cause i cant do it!!!

[BIGBANGKAMEHAMEHA95]

instead of just asking people how to do the simplest step, just go and try it for youself it's very easy and quick to learn.

[altf4ism]

@skatetoguitar Basically you just get 2 1x2 blocks for the center then pair them up.

[Gamerdude2008]

if i had a camera type thing i woould show you but unfortunatly i fricking don't :(

[Nickzzzz21056]

by the way your method is called reduction. :)

[Nickzzzz21056]

I prefer cage mysel :)

[Nickzzzz21056]

you guys are saying"hes going too fast" or "hes not explaining it good enough". Honestly you should be an absolute pro at a 3x3 before you try to do this and understand what hes doing.

[mebepengy]

i got the centers thanks

[ZZgS]

urg i cant get the centers u didnt explain them good at all :(

[bretharterxs]

try watching another tutorial?

Or give your cube to me!

[Buggativ16]

not helpful at all..

you suck!

(no offence)

[LilScar727]

Damnit i was doing R* 2u R' and my cube popped lol

[zniehrolyat]

this helped a bunch, thanks a lot :]

[shaunnxt]

is that a jq cube

[Antall18]

modded rubik's 4x4

[Popyocolla4563]

yeah...this video doesn't help your goin to fast and the cube is like half cut off on this video. Thanks anyway but didnt help me. :(

[light7ball]

BLUE MUSTARD BLOOD

[yoboyson2]

A little too fast.

[hyn1995]

how do you finish off the whole thing?

[ladidum22]

*sigh* if you can actually go a bit slower when you turn... like, you do it slowly, because i have to keep on going backwards and forwards cuz i miss the direction u hv turned ur cube, or something. Otherwise, it's a good tutorial ^.^

[monkeyzNdogz]

blue mustard blood?

I prefer red white blue

patriotic

[angusthegreat]

dear host, u're great and i'm sad. i spent time to look for demo that can give me a breakthrough. now, i found yours but i have hard time to follow. i guess i have to settle with my current record.... for a while. but, thanks. great demo.

[origami1325]

its called reduction

[cubermodder]

is there no 1 gen? because you could connect 2 and do u R U R' u' right?

[coke0111]

and by the way your tutorial was a bit like how i solved it without help untill i watched this and your 2-4-6 gen i do 3 and 2 because there easyest and thanks for the last 2 to pair up instructions and you instruction for blind fold is good for 3x3x3

[coke0111]

wah loser 3x3x3 has parody if your blind solving

[Charlesman435]

thank you!

[scatjankmaster]

the 3x3x3 paritys arent hard at all to fix

[WahLoser]

3x3x3 dosent have parity

[azurezinc]

erm... i suggest that u resticker ur cubes :)

[andyhthedrummer]

that method is called the reduction method

[Yesitis808]

thanks for the "detailed" tutorial -.-

[theyoungster2]

dude, you CAN switch 2 corner pieces. that's teh technique i ALWAYS use!

[13ofspadeZ]

Is there any method that allows you to solve a 4x4 like a 2x2?

[NinjaCowProduction]

if u mix it up liek a 2x2 then maybe

[EDismename]

the 4x4 seems like you have to have more "intuitiveness" than the 3x3

[kanzosupremo]

how did u get the cubes so good. mines really hard to move, did u lube it?

[Skimmitar88]

yeah lube it lol

[mikelp1010]

wat does like d R R F' d'

i remember like ' means inverter but does lower case mean first row or both rows on that side

[magichristo]

well in this case here its your choice, u can use one or both.. not sure but i think D is one row, and d is two...

[TopMagician4]

no D is the outer down face d is the iner wedge down face

[magichristo]

thats what i said

[hollownaruto1]

lol, his hand movements can replace for his mouth

[cerebus40000]

I like how you explain how to solve the edges....

[MikamiHero]

Method you teach = Reduction method =D *outdated much*

[81Takahiro18]

my way for the center is red white and blue clockwise

[Olivejay274]

this sucks

[EastSheener5x5]

hey r those eastsheen 4x4's?

[exleader75]

no, rubiks

[SSSSSSPla13]

do you solve those 3 layers in the end of the vid. like in the fridrich method ?

[DWScards]

How do you do that part you sped up at the end?

[SSSSSSPla13]

i actually think like in the fridrich method but then with 3 blox :D

[druppeltjeee]

sorry but i dont understand the gens or something and u talk too too fast

[stickyle]

i solved it without parody yay

[pheonix1018]

i remember the orientation of the centers by remembering red,white,blue(american flag colors) in a clockwise fashion.

[batmanthecool]

yeah, i totally get the centers now but you skipped over that edge pair stuff too fast.

we are slow, stupid and offer no reward.. help us.

[thedruglord]

nice 2gen 4gen method man... and to those who think this vid is too fast, ever heard of rewind?

[griffinkinley]

yeah are we the only people who got it first go? pause, play, morons

[NooBFTWin]

04:19 Blue mustard Blood xDDD

[abellano]

too fast..

that's all i can say,..

[XxxWINTxxX]

easiest way no the centers is no the wya he shows about mustard:S

all you have to do isssss

when yellow is in the top face blue is facing you and R-rrrrred is in your R-rrright hand

[speedstakerguy]

heyy i have same speakers!

[xXkoolpersonXx]

i dont understand the edges

[rubikscube10]

i just want a better parity alg for a flipped edge

[mel2mel101]

i dont get the gens

[philliesrule3690]

its called the reduction method

[orbital151]

Amazing.

[exleader75]

TOO FAST, I still don't get the 2-gen, 4-gen, 6- gen and 8-gen

[frk17]

gen gen gen!!! aarghg..... "at a time please" :)

[frostedflakeskid]

nah, i think robH0629 makes a better 4x4 tutorial

[InfinitiM13]

They each have their advantages.

[nejihyuga444]

best 4x4 vid

[MACProductioning]

There is no such thing as 2-gen edge pairing... Its called 2 at a time edge pairing.

[Crickets2010]

ya 2-gen refers to solving the cube with only two sides, like finger friendly algs.

but i believe "2 at a time edge pairing" is also referred as "chain solving"

[awsomecrossing]

i always remembered the center colors by looking at them in the dark becuase white and yellow looks almost the same in the dark such as to red to orange, and green to blue.

[RoxasRockUsAll]

The new rubik's is incredibly stiff.

[awsomecrossing]

VERY true

[maizezHacker]

try silicone spray lube

[peacecuber]

where u using an eastsheen?

[nejihyuga444]

its a rubix

[feytaliciouz]

do i have to use all the gens? cant i just use the 2 gen all the way? anyone, please respond...

[7times7equals49]

I don't understand how to get more then 1 edge at a time. It needs to be explained in more detail. I CAN solve the cube, but I can only solve 1 edge at a time, everytime I try to do more than that, the cube becomes scrambled. HELP!

[nejihyuga444]

i use 2 gen 4 gen and 5 gen

[WLMusic]

Which is better: the esheen 4x4 or the rubik's 4x4?

[spiderpig846]

eastsheen

[worldrace101]

eastsheen

[killwill07]

old rubiks, but eastsheen is much better tahn the new rubiks

[maplefreak7549]

wait if you do the 4-gen or 2-gen whats the point of doing the middle if you just mess it up?

[death25freak]

dude you're no help at all

[shvak1]

hes better then pogobat

[darthjeff2]

it makes sence now!!!

[AlexEttels]

hard ...

[sccerplyer0]

hmm... i don't really get the 4 gen that much... i kinda do, but not entirely sure

[EricCartman1108]

ya me ether

[ivanadik]

enaf,enaf..

[xXkoolpersonXx]

dude, you r really good at making tutorials, thanks!

[skatechimp]

Great tutorial. As long as you take it step by step he isn't going too fast. I have taught myself off all of his tutorials and it's easy...

[FireStormBaller]

Dude, your going too fast. And you sound so nervous.

[noahmannberg]

this own i have see all your tutorials almoast

[shaleneooi]

you suck man! youre doing it too fast with too little guidance. its more like a demo rather than a tutorial. not sure whether youre here to show how fast you can solve or to really teach

[mrblur94]

voice recorders always makes a guy sound gay. unless u talk so freaking deep you sound like a monster

[Sidlexic]

great tut man, helps a load.

[Drumhead13th]

you talk like gay fuck.. I hate the way you talk.. nyeeeEEEtt. LOL

[meschael]

I tryed to solve on my own without tutorials and could only get all centers and up to 6 edge paires. I could also fix the corners but was stuck, so I watched this vid, yea it was a bit fast but after a dozen replays i got it and am now at swap two edge pairs. I guess this is where parity comes to play. Im haveing my first parity nightmere.

[FrankMayhem]

you solve edges so fast... it doesn't give me time to see how you align or what it is you do.. :/

[WBcube]

awesome tutorial, man!

[RockbandObsession]

the only thing i don't understand is the edge pairing... how do you fix the centers after you do one edge pair??

[Crickets2010]

pogobat just presents it better, his tutorial on the 3x3x3 is the best one he made. After that it seemed like he got alittle big headed. While Thrawst isn't the best public speaker he continues to put forth effort and make quality videos.

[FireStormBaller]

Pogobat explanation is better, but his methods to solve a rubik's cube sucks. He taught you from the book for the 3x3x3, wtf? I could've just learn it from the book...

[qwaza3]

soooooo true but he sucks with the first and 3rd layer... and he at least like all explainers show it like with a viedo not a book...

[nejihyuga444]

thats why cubers now are really slow

[caiocontieri]

You move soo faster..

I can't understand very well...

but your tutorial is better than Pogobat...

thnks

[iversonodds]

you rock this video is better than pogobats video no offense to pogobat but it is

[blackwater24]

A better idea is to look at the corners and their colours to decide what the correct centre colours should be.

[limy1995]

lol my cube is fake..so the colours suck iu have purple

[arrictine333]

what's that cube?

[Kanefann]

I suggest to watch the video first , than start solving it while watching it the 2nd time.

[kick52]

It's probably quite a good tutorial though I can't pay attention because I find your presentation a bit boring. Sorry.

[Kanefann]

Best tutorial

[webslinga348]

how the hell do you get the edges in there right spot? u should at least tell us how then do the rest

[GR3453m0nk3y5]

cocopop your just too stupid to actually figure out what he is doing. i learned a lot from this video and now i can solve it!

.......Thanks Thrawst

[cocopop1965]

Your explanations are really pointless, You might as well just turn off the camera and teach yourself because your just showing us you know how to do it, I suggest you watch some other posts that are instructional and teach the methods. Directions like oh you just swap those out means absolutely nothing to someone learning.

[claus93Sethsen]

HAHAHAHHAA!!! Your post makes life worth living.. To see that a Guy named Cocopop and Starts Bitchin about a Tutorial for 4x4 ... just Hilarious.. And Also if you are Bitch'in so much then why not Create a 4x4x4 tutorial your self so you can see how hard it is to create on yourself :) ?

[pepperspray13]

what i dont get the 2 gen 4 gen thing please explain again is there a 1 gen

[moniquesee]

your too fast..

[JHil94]

sry...but dat was confusing...i already no how to do the 4x4x4, but that demonstration was BAD

[juvenileGsix]

dude you lost me on the edges part

[biggy887766]

same here

[rikard92]

same here too

[supenis]

lol, anal lube...

he is funny, just deal with it

[monkeynicaud]

d R F' u' F' d'????

[monkeynicaud]

d R F' u' F' d'????

[freekadam]

wat do i use to lube it?

[greekgirl77]

silicon spray, don't use vaseline it's bad for your cube

[greekgirl77]

silicon spray, don't use vaseline it's bad for your cube

[MonkeyFlatulence]

For Some Reason ,On my computer the video stops after you talk about 4gen.

[philliesrule3690]

the method that your teaching is called "reduction"

[Pizzscn]

What brand cube is that? Mine's Hasboro but yours move so smoothly...
