In this video I go over many advanced F2L techniques, such as use of empty slots, stuck pieces, general tips/tricks, etc.

NOTE: The website has some good solutions for some cases, and also some VERY VERY bad solutions for other cases. Exercise your good judgment. It still has some very good ideas that can help you improve. Also note he uses the Japanese color scheme, so his BLUE is my WHITE.

  • if you average:

    -1.10 mins or more=turn with fingers, not hands.

    -1.10 mins-50 secs=learn fridrich method (F2L,4 look last layer)

    - 50-30 secs=concentrate on solving f2l pairs 1 at a time, as fast as you can. learn full pll.

    -30 secs and under=learn the rest of fridrich. learn to slow down during f2l and focus on your look-ahead. NOW you will profit from it the most. the moment you turn faster than you can track the next pair you're losing time.

    my avg 16.47

    thumbs up so people can see =)

  • hi Badmephisto, i've been cubing for 2 years now. i wanted to thank you for all those cubing videos you put on youtube. i have watched all your cubing video multiple times and they've helped me improve a ton. i started off with an average of about 2 minutes and (after LOTS of practice) improved my times to an average of 16.47 seconds! looking at the german top 100 list (avg5, i come from germany), i would be in 63rd place right now =D thanks again for everything, you are my cubing idol =)

  • @jpm736 yes, hi there. I get 50-1.10 and I know 4 look last layer and Basic F2L. How should I get faster. Should I practice my look ahead so I can move my fingers faster and get a better time?
