Its nessesary. You lower the amount of cases you can get greatly, so faster recognition time. And, the 2 looks OLLs are faster then the 1 look OLLs. ANd, you can use COLL with ZBF2L, and then the only other alg you need to do its a quick edge cycle/switcher PLL. Sure, it may not be worth it, but it may save you a very small amount of time (about .5-1 seconds in total im guessing) even if you are very advanced
So using the first two at least is quicker than roating the cube in the long run? I'll give it a try. I knew all the tricks in your previous vid but I still can't get past sub 20, I had to switch to cross on the bottom rather than on the side.
For the first you shoud do U f R' f'

@eppley12 but thst kinda awkard

or you could just do a doubele layer turn once to insert it.

You could just do U R' F' U2 F U R for that first case. Algs from the fused cube FTW

Do you really use the last tricks (like 2:20) in your solves? Because i find it more convenient to do a cube rotation.

nice video man i rotate the cube a lot
which totally skrews up my look ahead

Great video dude, you explain things very concisely and clearly. Thumbs up and I definitely learned something!

the last move from the first algorithm is M not M'
Thanks a lot !! this was exactly what I was looking for :D
Kostas1601 1 year ago
@Kostas1601 - Actually, M moves follow L moves. ( M is the same direction as L, M' is the same as L')

Hey, Weston, can you make a video something like this but more OH friendly please? thanks

For the first pair, there's another insertion you might find useful: (U2) R2 F R' F' R

First person ive seen using M moves for F2L. Very, very nice insertions though :)

yea but zbf2l is only suitable if u use cll then edge permutation on your last layer and i think its unnessesary to use edge control algorithms

arent u actually doing somehow a partial zbf2l method? i´m learning zbf2l thru one of ur videos, and it roks man!
thanx for the videos!

Rotations own wasted moves. Only 1 rotation is necessary per F2L anyway.

but like i said,
its good for edge controlling if you use fridrich.

You use the same alg I do. :D
