Sigh, personally I think it's lucky.. he solved the cube in 39 moves (not counting turns). Unless you're averaging 40-43 moves a solve, this solve is lucky.
As you all know, every cuber has their own definition of a "lucky solve".. whether it be an extended cross or 2 move cross or pll/oll skip. I'm basing your luck as statistically improbable, since your solves aren't 39 moves every time.. or are they? o.O
exactly what i was going to say but still freking awesome. just wanna say a thing can u profe it is 7,77 and not 20 sec cuzz it doesn't were with timer
No. He's using normal F2L with some additional techinques. The last pair is an example of such a technique, as he used an f2l alg that preserves ll orientation. Go to cubefreak in the f2l and you'll see it. That or cubefreak's misc. techniques
They're algorithms, they basically tell you which side of the rubik's cube you're supposed to move. for example 'Ri' is right inverted, so you move the right side of the cube counter-clockwise.
y is a horizontal move - y' - to the left, y - to the right. x is vertical one - x - up, x' - down. I don't know what z stand for, I havens met such thing yet. Hope I helped ;)
wow, thats actaully sooo smart. ive never even heard of the word algorithm. i had to copy and paste that.. seriosly it looks like a bunch of random letters with numbers to me, and im 16 by the way
i like how if i look at all the other rubiks cube solves that are under 10 seconds (all are not competition) they are all dissing the maker, yet not this one? interesting.
the PLL was skipped so it dosent count as lucky, he intenionally was able to aviod the OLL so thats not lucky either. and he had 3 of the f2l slots to fill... also, the 1st slot being lucky isnt enough to constitute a lucky solve, and the fact that the second f2l pair was already made might have been intentional(because when i tried this scramble it was alrerady made and his cross was made to keep it in tact for later)
I don't think this solve is lucky because I see him doing each step, including PLL (which in most cases that I've seen is where people get lucky). Harris Chan is a great speedcuber, congrats dude, you're really freaking good.
i know how to solve the rubik's cube with beginners method and i had a brain fart but i knew they were called algorithms but do (these on this video) work in any situation or do they only work during certain situations
The last F2L he did was a VHF2L, and that is supposed to get the 4 edge pieces on the last layer. He got the 4 corner pieces with it, which is why I would consider that a lucky solve.
I didn't see him work for the 8 oriented faces between F2L's 3 and 4. That's my point. He did no anticipating at all, he saw something lucky, and happened to know the algorithm to get out of it with ease.
The knowledge of the algorithm wasn't the lucky part, the lucky part was getting the 8 oriented faces.
Yes that bit was lucky, but the fact he did a different algorithm makes it a non-lucky solve. Yes it was lucky he got those pieces oriented, but it was not a lucky solve.
All I claim is that because of that luck, the OLL was able to be skipped. We disagree as to what constitutes a lucky skip of OLL. You draw the line at a single step, I'm willing to take it back up to 2 steps.
And I think the speedcubing rules are ambiguous. What constitues a 'step' in their rulebook? If they were to get more anal on rules, they'd probably rule this a lucky solve.
dude he has a solve that is done in 3 seconds and change. now yes its a set scramble and solution. BUT it is faster then 7.77 and who says he didn't do the same?
That's actually lucky. I would argue an OLL skip of all things is a huge lucky solve. (Unless you were doing some mad ZBF2L [which you knew would orient corners too], or saw the last insertion + OLL, which I kinda doubt)
It wasn't lucky. All of the top was done, but if he had done his normal algorithim for the F2L it would have ruined it. So he used a different algorithim which kept the orientation, he worked for the skip.
The fact was, though, that between his 3rd and 4th insertion he got a lucky OLL. Admittedly, that could be classified as "one of the few 4th F2L insertion to OLL skip" that he knew, but where do you draw the line?
I claim that it was <10% chance between his 3rd and 4th F2L insertion that he would get something which is classified as helpful (i.e. 4 edges, 3 corners face up), and hence lucky.
Nice solve, but I consider things like this lucky because I can't do them every time (or, specifically, 20% of the time.) In any case, my best lucky solve is 7.98 seconds, and my best non-lucky is 9.72. You win. ;)
Ron analyze the solve and said it was not lucky, since I worked for it. If you had done it, you probably just used the normal algo for that last F2L pair, which you wouldn't get a PLL skipped. But I used a different algo to preserved the OLL (aka I worked for it).
it is in add math or physics formula??

He "worked for it", so the OLL skip is non-lucky.
Instead of doing the normal algo for his last F2L pair, he went out of his way to do another algo, to preserve the LL orientation.
If he did his NORMAL algo, and had the OLL done, then that would be lucky. But he didn't use his normal algo.
