Rubik's Cube: 2 Look OLL

2-look OLL is simply Fridrich OLL step, but done in two stages such that the number of algorithms needed is reduced from 57 to 9.
This way of doing it is still pretty quick and you should be able to get to mid-to-high 20's averages if you use full Fridrich except that you do 2look OLL instead of the Fridrich OLL. You want to start learning all the OLL's at some point anyway though, because many of them are really easy, and they DO speed you up.

Algs:
opposite edges: F (R U R' U') F'
adjacent edges: f (R U R' U') f'
all edges: [F (R U R' U') F'] [f (R U R' U') f']

Anti-Sune: (R' U' R) U' (R' U2 R)
Sune: (R U R') U (R U2 R')
Cross Symmetric: F (R U R' U') (R U R' U') (R U R' U') F'
Cross not symmetric: (R U2) (R2 U') (R2 U') (R2 U2 R)
-----------------or: [f (R U R' U') f'] [F (R U R' U') F']
Headlights: (R2' D) (R' U2) (R D') (R' U2 R')
Chameleon: (r U R' U') (r' F R F')
Diagonal Corners orient: F' (r U R' U') r' F R

Hello @badmephisto... I've figured out an easier way to remember the algorithm of "Headlights" at 5:40 [(R2 D) (R' U2) (R D') (R' U2) R'], it goes something like this---->

x R2 F (R' B2) (R F') (R' B2) R'

This algorithm is very much similar to the one in your beginner's method video, which is algorithm for Corner Permutation of Last Layer which goes something like this---->

R' F (R' B2) (R F) (R' B2) R2

We just interchange the first and last moves of the algorithm i.e, R' with R2.

@akakooldood Hey that's actually pretty good I like it!

Shorter algorithm for the symmetric cross. Hold the cross so that the yellow sides are on your left and right. Then do R U R' U R U' R' U R U2 R'

54 ?

what speed should i be getting with 2 look pll and oll? if i practise for around 2 months?

[MrTshirtboooy]

7:45 that's just wrong... XD

@akakooldood thankyou, your alt, alg for headlights really helped me with my 2loll

@JAK1234jr

X is a cube rotation... Clockwise(when facing the right face of the cube) rotation of the cube in X axis... Check the notations on google or badmephisto's website

Theres a mistake in the algorithm where u solve the above yellow layer .the one apart from chameleon i.e R2 D R' U2 R D' R' U2 R' is what u mentioned but what u actually did was R2 D' R' U2 R D R' U2 R'

[JAK1234jr]

@akakooldood What does 'x' mean?

[itssapir]

for the diagonal corners orient

if you start with the yellow facing cube to the left (mirror of your start)

you can use (R' F) (R B') (R' F') (R B)

this might seem bad at first, but its very intuitive
