F2L Tutorial Remade!
My attempt at logically explaining exactly how the F2L in the Fridrich method works, so that you will never have to learn the algorithms for it. The method that I explain here is foolproof, meaning that it works every time, but takes a little longer. Placing one corner-edge pair should not take more than about 7 or 8 moves. If some move is taking you longer, it is probably a good idea to brute force learn the algorithm for it. This is however quite rare, so you don't have to worry about it unless you want to go for below 20 seconds or so, full solve.

Part1: Case1, Case2
Part2: Case3, examples

  • I finally got a sub-30 (29.97) solve!!! Thank you!!!

  • Wow this made so much sense, thank you so much, F2L makes so much sense to me now :D

  • im extremely sorry. but i dont understand anything you're saying. i have done everything you've done by the book and nothing comes out right. but my record using beginner's method is 44.3s and average of 5 is 59.3s (nothing impressive i know!) but i am struggling badly.

  • thank you so much

  • Can you please do a new video its hard to follow please jake

  • next time, plz use a camerastand

  • i can do f2l in 10 seconds

  • @LosAnJulien It's simple. Use the free slots that you have at the moment. If you are stuck on the last one, turn the top layer until the slot is at the back so you can use it.

  • Just one question sir... How many cubes ?

  • thank you so much this helped alot! "like this vid"
