How to Solve a 2x2 Part 1

[gaminglurp]

i dont get this tutorial. i dont know what"r f prim " or levitation or any other of that mambo jumbo. is there a way you could clarify ?

[coolkidowen214]

this is a joke on my first solve i got like 20 seconds

[Jeffry30h3]

0:24 Well made rubik cube.

[slickDZN]

Or just do wot i did...... Take it apart the rebuild :)

[daberko120ch]

WHAT THE FUCK IS PRIME AND SHIT!?

[daberko120ch]

I know I'm a smart person... but I don't know what he means be layer... I just want to learn how to solve a FUCKING CUBE! I hate jargon!

[coloradorokies]

@daberko120ch

Then you must not be smart? Think about it 2x2, 2 layers :l

[daberko120ch]

@coloradorokies Okay... I am a smart person. He was saying things like top layer and stuff like that and it confused me. Even the smartest minds get confused over things they have never heard of. It makes sense now that YOU ACTUALLY TOLD ME, this guy didn't.

[coloradorokies]

@daberko120ch

I know the smartest people get confused on certain things.

What I meant is that you weren't smart in this subject :P

Glad to help you!

~LordSexyLicious

[daberko120ch]

@coloradorokies You didn't help me at all, but thank you. haha.

[navysashop]

i know how to solve 0x0 zubic cube

[soildier2010]

cool my uncle billpage sloves it also like rubicks cube just solve the top corners and do pattern code for bottom its its solved

[Peeku3]

dude how is that simple! D:

[jan47wim]

poor girlfriend prolly gets a wedding ring in a rubix cube .. Do you take this man as your lawful husband ,.. one sec. i almost got it ..

[willbro294]

you sound like gabe from the office

[iLuVeHeNdRiX]

i know how to solve a 1x1 rubix cube

[XxPOOPLICKER23xX]

@iLuVeHeNdRiX i know how to solve a 0x0

[ClaymoreQuickScoper]

@iLuVeHeNdRiX Technically the 1x1x1 is unsolvable because it doesn't have any rotating layers. Confusing, I know, but still.

[daberko120ch]

@ClaymoreQuickScoper That's the joke smart one.

[RedStoneFire]

I dont get the letters stuff HELP!!!!!!!!!

[iBossDawg]

@RedStoneFire the letters represent sides.U equals turning the upside L the left side B is back side.The ' repreents counterclockwise as if you were facing that side so R' is turning the right side towards you R which is clockwise is away.That is called notation to learn the notation i reccommend going to Pogobats tutorial for the 3x3 the original one in the beginning it shows notation plus this is a more advanced tutorial because of all the possible cases google how to solve this in 2 algorithm

[NHLFreak69]

i got it so that i took off all the stickers and then put them to the right side :D

[rainieyang911]

[DRSketchyHedgehog]

this is an easy cube darn it a three year old could figure this out!! >:(

[daberko120ch]

@DRSketchyHedgehog I'm 16 and I have been stuck on this cube for a half hour. I'm trying to get 1 cube thingy in the 3 cube thingies and I can't get it. I don't understand the jargon in this video so I can't comprehend a thing. Solving these puzzles is like understanding a whole new science. I can't pick the basics up...

[DRSketchyHedgehog]

@daberko120ch did i really need to know that?

[3521soda]

hahahah this is a rubik's cube for people who are like, actually retarded

[SlashKidGuitar]

What lube?

[MrExtinctioNx]

GAWT DAYUM. way to over complicate.

[patscube87]

The lowest you can get is 8seconds???

I average sub 5 with Fridrich

[MJCastellanos]

@patscube87 LOSER.

[Mr2bUs]

my head is full of fuck

[BeakyRed]

1:24 SWASTIKA CUBE

[Failtacular100]

Best algorithm is F U U U U U U U

[mrblueskate11]

how about the v-cube brand ?

[Josheyrock17]

LMFAO at 4:00. Ha ha ha F U

[Tim85axira]

F' U'!

[Vr0mB0]

i think you just made the video to show us how fast you can solve it

[BlackOpsFTWTF]

where do you buy your cubes?

[ThePyroB0T]

what is the difference batween l' and L' ?

[LordSexylicious]

For the headlight one (None on top then paired in front and back.

Theres a shorter algorithim

Hold one of the headlights facing you, and R2 U2 R' U2 R2m and it's a little bit easier to remember.

[xXH8teraiidXx]

Why the fuck am I watching this?

[missmarocc1]

Hha I didn't understand a thing...

[BKWSPARKY]

thumbs up for "pull out the little thingy"

[kataskopos77]

nice video ;)

[akemper1394]

just wondering where do you learn all of these algorithms.... i know the basics one and can only get like a 1:00+solve (on a 3X3)

[g3ttokill3r]

my rec. is with this 7sec ^^

[bubbalo123]

wath from 5:38

[timmyboy004]

WHA?

[battler1111]

0:50 Listen to the video with your eyes closed.

[grizzlycomet09]

great vid man

[k0rvin2002]

i lubed it and it broke

[jawbreak1r]

I can solve a 4x4, but not a 2x2, wtfbbq

[kyekyebear]

LUBRICANT!!!!!!!!!!!! lol



[sooperscooper2]

@Thrawst you forgot the top layer one where the is none on the top, there is a 2x1 block on the front, and there are two on either side of the back.

[jqb2011]

thumbs up if u dont know how you got here

[MassiveZero]

I hate this cubic. Yes, Im stupid, I can't solve it. I HATE IT. -.-

[MrElitePerfect]

I cant find part 2.................FUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUU

[dmr778810]

"how do you solve a rubik's cube jacob?" RURURURUFUFUFU now thats how bitch

[smokemagnet]

There's a big difference between showing how much you know about a certain subject, from actually teaching something about it to others. I guess the last part was not the intended

[aussieCODpro]

@hamiltonfrick oath



[dogmatic1954]

@hamiltonfrick wow, they're still doing those?

[HellGast555]

@hamiltonfrick Your so stuppid of posting this comment. 1. Be happy VEVO is there, they give all our music in HD for FREE. 2. Youtube is free becaus of the advertisments, you should know nothing is for free in this world. 3. Can't deal with changes? Then close yourself in you room and never come out.

[Liamj774]

@hamiltonfrick Why do you want to go to the old Youtube that you used to hate?

When Youtube changed the old, old Youtube and changed it back, you hated it. So why ask to go back to the old Youtube you hate?

[stickmedia1]

@hamiltonfrick God shut the fuck up....

[slimjimism123]

@hamiltonfrick what does that have to do with anything

[TheMrcobain]

@hamiltonfrick well would you like youtube to start charging? That's why the ads are their. Stupid fuck

[fducharme1]

I never wanna hear the words "Like Such" ever again.

[mikeeg96]

crap i blinked i have to restart the vid now!

[jconv99]

Oh my gawd this is some fucked up sit

[WhirlOfTime]

Can you gimme a link where I can buy that lubricant spray?

[LiverAloneK]

@WhirlOfTime try any hardware store

[teddypsn]

ok when you were saying r u f u r u i was like what so i do r r 2 f u r2d2 i dont no

[teddypsn]

so would 8x8 work

[Xxrhirhi99xX]

Okay guys, the letter F symbolizes front, which means turn the front side of the cube clockwise as if you were facing that side, F' (F prime) means turn the front side counterclockwise, and F2 means turn the front side any direction twice. Same for R (right) L (left) and U (Upper).

[DJToxicWulf]

. . . Rubik's should be its own language X_X

[LoveLovi444]

ahhhhh i dont really understand!! :((

[hellasuper197]

6:05 i always get stuck here, and i dont see in your video where you fix it from there. help pwease?:3

[TheRyanpatton]

This is harder to solve than my fucking 3x3

[TheMadz45]

i got a hard time to solve this 2x2 shit.. come on, any other techniques we can use there to "magically" solve this??

[xXxDANMANxXx]

@TheMadz45 it's really not that bad, hardest part is memorizing the algs for the 2nd layer

[TheMadz45]

@xXxDANMANxXx yeah i really had the bad time.. i think ill spend another 1year to solve another cube .. -_-

[Sayeedur123]

by reading the comments i think you should start the video with notations

[supaskarmory]

How do you know what side is which?

[RaNd0mLyNaM3D]

@supaskarmory u don't, u just make it whichever side u want it to be :P

[Dumbcat2387]

r u 5 its a 2x2

[Friendlypup45]

lanlan power!

[phoiv]

I can unsolve it much faster.

[KEVideos100]

Thanks so much i solved it!!!

[armyrossjames]

the best method is to get a hammer smash it up and glue it back in the right place

[RapWorld3000]

i dont think u need algorithms really for a 2 by 2, people say its just simple to solve, i can solve a 3 by 3 but i wish i had a 2 by 2 so i can try

[killerbiller35]

wtf i dont speak robot..

[xxAmyyMarieexx]

fuck this shit, im taking off the stickers -.-

[xTHELTTiLEMANx]

lol i think that the 2x2 us more confusing than the 3x3 and the 4x4! 4x4 all u hav to do is get the middle and edges and then its just a 3x3 but this one there is like 403218732189 million algorythims

[slayer21737]

i use a 3x3 for a 2x2

[winnerchessguy]

THUMBS UP IF IT KEEPS FREEZING AT 0:10

[theoreticalphysosist]

NOOOOO GET THE V-CUBE 2 ITS THE BEST!!!!!

[TheMrcobain]

@theoreticalphysosist I think lanlan is better because it's cheaper and it move hella smooth without lube

[1996142601]

thank you so much

[TGCubes]

Darn, two of the same top comments.

[JeffroTV]

People need a tutorial for this? sheesh!

[SirFlakes]

for the pll can you just use a Y perm and a T perm??

[JeffroTV]

@SirFlakes S perm

[MVPgoalie]

i guess my dad is right...i am a dumb ass.

[billballer13]

what company did he say that one was?

[SToNeR4LiiFe]

I keep getting those fucking parity cases >.<

[lemondrizzle2]

My buddy has an easier method. He just peels the sticker of and then he puts then back in the right order XD

[CoDBanana]

ok fuck this... i just bought a stinking 2x2 for the fun of it but this r r-prime?! WTF suck me man... give me a SLLOOOOWW tutorial where u say whar r-PRIME is wtf?!

[Thrawst]

@CoDBanana LOL Xfw045MjVDQ

[TheMummy516]

@Thrawst Hey, thanks for the tutorial. I can solve the 3x3 in about a minute every few goes, but the 2x2 wasn't the same. I can now solve this in an average of about 15 seconds. Thanks a bunch!

[TheJ5333]

@CoDBanana You really ought to start with basics.

[14greenboy14]

@CoDBanana Look for Dan Brown's Tutorial of the 3x3 Rubik's cube for the R R' situation

[bharrismac]

@CoDBanana r refers to turning the right-hand face clockwise (when looking at it). r prime is counterclockwise with the same logic. u refers to the top side (up). f refers to the front. d refers to the bottom (down). l refers to the left side. remember that prime (sometimes called inverted) makes the turn counterclockwise, and that this logic works when you look at the side in reference. i'm sure you can look this up with google somewhere, but i thought i'd try to help you out. it's all patience

[ddevil768]

@CoDBanana lol look at a 3x3 tutorial they show what r prime and etc are

[TheMrcobain]

@CoDBanana lol you just fucking suck

[winnerchessguy]

@CoDBanana uuuuuummm.... u have to learn the notation first before u solve any kind of rubik's cube u idiot

[RubiksTaylor]

@CoDBanana this isnt a beginner method. its for people who understand how to solve a 3x3x3 and who understand cube notation.

[phantokamistika2008]

You need to learn to solve a 3x3, which is why you don't know what he is saying because that is a basic fundamental to cubing

[Dynikus]

@CoDBanana the prime just means counter clockwise. r is right.

it's the standard way of writing and saying algorithms.

[SunKing456]

You don't like using this method, but its the one you sue??

Dude that doesn't make sense...

[magicmaker211]

so ur saying that u can solve the 2x2 like a 3x3

[TheHunterGreene]

haha R U2

[NinjaAssassin109]

3:11 u finished the white side

[LALALOU293]

wait a second,

DID YOU BUFF YOUR NAILS?

[123amsterdan456]

i solve the 2x2 w/ this method, still i got times like 8:28, 8:31 but my average is about 11:04

[sammie5297]

I CAN SOLVE A ONE BY urmmmm 0? Yay!!!

[MizzPerfect9292]

U can tell you cheated on the 4x4 because the stickers are peeling!! FIGURED OUT MUCH!!

[MatthewAustinQuasel]

What about the V-Cube 2x2?

[CrashKilla101]

@MatthewAustinQuasel does that exist?

[mirals100]

u r sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk man

dude i rate you man i mean i can solve the first layer and try to find videos for the second layer and thank allah for dinding you

[Speedcuber4Life]

I am a Speedcuber using the Fridrich Method, I average 21-22 seconds with a sub 10 Personal Best, PLEASE check out my channel! :)

[jmarvilus]

I am currently working on solving the 50 x 50. When I die, my 4 year old son will continue my work.

[kcjay98]

bob "hey jake how do i solve this rubix cube" jake "FURFUF!!!" bob "ok ok ill leave you alone"

[Thrawst]

@kcjay98 Best "FU" joke I've ever read! xD

[Robolawrence23two]

@kcjay98 i don't get it

[kcjay98]

@Robolawrence23two imagine walking up to someone and asking how to solve a 2 by 2 and him just yelling furfuf 

[xiweiding]

so easy, a caveman could do it!

[ReMarig00o]

pffft.. 3x3 is so much easier :3 even the 4x4 is easier than this! :3

[Nickker3]

It's weird... Non of the algo works :S

[cubecraze1]

you can also use a 6x6

[guybrush93]

@cubecraze1 you can also use a 2n x 2n

[MsSkittlez1996]

can i use wd-40 to lubericate it?

[jamoXDlemon]

@MsSkittlez1996 no, it will eat the plastic, use silicon spray or petroleum jelly

[pauliusmisk]

how stupid was the man who made this f**king cube

[GrantDances2Live]

During the top layer process, when your doing OLL (I think) I don't believe you went over the case where none of the pieces are solved on the top, and 2 are on the same side facing away, and the other two are facing out on different sides leaving one final side with none of the top layers on the side its self. Can you please give me the algorithm for this cace if possible?

[rodrick6666]

I did the first layer and it was already solved!!! Scramble fail.

[rodrick6666]

SOLVED IT!!!!!!!

[sgaevan1567]

whats next u may ask? A 1X1!!!!!!!! MUHA MUHA MUHA HA ITS SO HARD!!!!!

[n3wryu]

2x2 sux



[rubiksmanham]

I am using a 6x6 HAHAHAHA!

[MrCwhit101]

at about 1:57 you said you can solve it in 9 secounds if you try hard? how hard do u have to try its a 2x2??

[Thrawst]

@MrCwhit101 seeing as how they're no standard measurement for "trying" besides not, a bit, and hard, I don't see how I can answer this question.

[xxxslayerxxx666]

@MrCwhit101 don't underestimate it, i can do a 7x7 yet i needed help on this!

[CubeChampions9999]

I use CLL ;pp

[publimikey]

Fuck Rubik

[MrBigman12391]

what dose math have to do with matching colors

[tee3534]

his 3x3 looks like crap get another one man

[TheMillironEffect]

@the comment I just made.

I just did a few 2x2 solves and you can end up with parity 2 or 3, possibly more times when using the beginner method of a 3x3. This can double or triple your solve time.

[TheMillironEffect]

@theborderlandsFTW

Yes, you could. But it is very slow, especially for the last layer because you may end up with parity where you have 2 unoriented corners and two properly oriented corners. you can fix this by solving for corners which do not have the color you need on the top of the cube. And then reorient and solve again for the corners.

[geogami1234]

my record is 2.08 seconds.

[BCT3496]

I saw this and I was like "HA! Psshhh... 2X2. Anyone could do THAT!!!"

Then I watched the video.

O.o

I sit corrected.

[ChoopieRawr27]

alot of talking....

[hanslol100]

you talk to much between the explinations

[tee3534]

it's funny when his voice cracked

[denbroncos4ever]

Please help!!! Could SOMEBODY give me the alg for the 2x2 last layer?? It's the only one I don't know, and I couldn't find it in the vid. The one with no yellow on top with two one the left and one on the right front and one on the right back.

[doudi2008]

is this called a TUTORIAL ??!! NO WAY !!!!!!!!

[doudi2008]

ddddd

[XXvideoWizard]

i cannot even solve the 1x1

[1y9b9b]

@XXvideoWizard

ha!

[AkwardEmoBunni]

AHH! NERDGASMS!

[yisoonshin12]

May I ask how to solve a 1x1? lol

[sagredo8363]

S8star861 that's only on a three by tree

[s8star861]

what is the difference from lower case l and uppercase L?

[shoot210]

RURURFUR what?

[MrGJHart]

1x1 is the worst, but 2x2 is a close 2nd

[TheBorderlandsFTW]

Can the 2x2 be solved with the same method as the beginner's method for the 3x3 cube? Or does it have to be done with the Fridrich method?
