      I think they're both really good, whichever is better probably just depends on which you like better! But it would be wrong of me to use CFOP while claiming Roux is better, so I think you know my answer in that case :)

      MITT SER I recommend to use CFOP first and its based on algorithms while ROUX is intuitive, and you can learn 2 - look OLL and PLL on CFOP and it can get very fast. I think in your situation you'll get to like 40 - 1 minute. Hope it helps :))

    Why I Switched From Beginners Method To Petrus: My Good Friend We'll Just Call Him Ru, He Was The Fastest Cuber In The Class. He Used Roux. My Other Friend We'll Call Him John, He Was The Second Fastest. He Used ZZ So I Was Inspired To Use Petrus So That We Could Confirm Who Was The Fastest. I Obviously Got Second. Still Behind Ru And That Is Why I Use Petrus.

    • @Flowey-vc3jl

  • @mattevans1643
    @mattevans1643 6 лет назад +2

    I'm not interested in speed solving, i'll stick with my 24 second personal best. Because what difference does it make if i solve it any faster. I also never solve the cube the same way twice. I mean if someone asks me if i can do it, i'll do either the simple beginner method, or corners first. But when i'm solving it on my own, i usually just make random pairs all over the cube, and then put them together. I remember one time when this kid in high school would use CFOP, and i asked him to let me play with his cube. He was telling me i'll never solve it the whole time. The entire time i was solving it, it looked like a jumbled mess. And then out of nowhere it was solved. And he just sat there in amazement. He asked what method i did, and i told him there wasn't a method, i just put the pieces where they go. You learn a lot from trying different methods. And you only need a couple algorithms to solve it. Once you learn what the algoritms change, you learn how to change the algorithms as well. For example let's say, you want to change two edges. Obviously you have the edge orient, and the edge swap algorithm, from the beginner method. Well you can alter the algorithms to change unrelated edges, you just have to remember what the extra moves were so you undo them at the end. That takes your cubing ability to an entirely new level. It won't make your times faster, but it will make your brain stronger. What is the point of learning 1000's and algorithms when you really only need 5 or 6?

    I am currently making the transition ;) and think you should make a video on developing good habits for roux. Maybe discuss or walk through efficient blockbuilding (second block gets me every time for some reason).
    I consistently get almost identical move counts with CFOP and Roux, which is a problem. Considering that the biggest advantage of roux is efficiency, I think it would be fantastic if you could provide some basic or advanced tips/techniques you have learned or figured out.
    (i avg around 10 seconds with CFOP and 16 with Roux, so it can be hard to stay motivated but I think it will work out better for me personally)

I also don't see myself ever getting bored of cfop or cubing in any sort of near future. TLDR: cfop isn't boring enough for me to get slower for awhile with roux.

  • @thesphyrth
    @thesphyrth 4 года назад +1

    So, your deciding factors for making the full switch is:
    Getting FASTER while HAVING FUN with it.
    I'll just share my particular story for favoring Roux.
    After learning the beginner's method, I wanted to know if there was another/faster way to solve the cube. I was in the Fridritch vs. Petrus Era.
    The deciding factor that The Petrus System got me was "It doesn't break what you already solved... unlike the Cross." Block-building wasn't too much of a hurdle for me. In fact, solving the 2x3 block by intuition just fits my style.
    Now, as years have passed and finding out that Modern Speedcubes have kicked Petrus out of the Big 3, the time was ripe for me to choose another method. Since Freedom in Block-building has always been my preferred style choosing Roux was rather easy. Not to mention also my preference on Intuition over Pure Algs.
    Now, Roux (even in the beginner's method) is making me enjoy 2 things that Petrus never did:
    1. Cool-looking M Slices
    2. Almost non-existent Cube Rotation.
    Not only does #2 is making my solves more fun, it's going to prevent me further from learning CFOP at all (Yeah, I know, not learning CFOP has its downsides, but that's just me).

    I'm starting with Roux, not with CFOP as others do. I like the intuitiveness and the movements. Even when learning the beginner method, I hated learning the basic algs, so I thought "what more if I learn CFOP?"

  • @davidsandrock7826
    @davidsandrock7826 3 года назад

    The one problem I have with Roux is that it does not feel like a progression from the basic layer by layer method like CFOP does. Ergo, Roux would not use any of my knowledge of making the cross or solving in layers. In fact, my knowledge of basic seems more like a hindrance than help when I try solving with the Roux method.
    Also, who doesn’t feel awesome using Sexy Moves and Sledgehammers?

  • @lloydforger2920
    @lloydforger2920 6 лет назад

    Hello! I just ordered myself a cube specifically yj mgc v1., Should i learn CFOP ? or I'll just learn roux ? From what i observed in youtube, most of them use cfop. And cubers(pfft i only see 3 of then) in my school use cfop and beginner's method. Should I be unique at some point and use cfop?

  • @goku.puzzled9221
    @goku.puzzled9221 8 лет назад

    I'm averaging like 30s with CFOP. Do you think it will be efficient to shift to Roux now? I hate learning algs.

    • @criticalcubing
      @criticalcubing  8 лет назад +2

      Yup, why not? Try and see if you like Roux or not and then decide which one to use.

    • @criticalcubing
      @criticalcubing  7 лет назад +1

      Yup. Basic block building, CMLL and LSE = sub 8 is doable :)

    I also do 3×3 but initial goal is to get a WR,CR or atleast a NR.Now I can't afford expensive cubes or lubes.My cube is not bad but also not as good a valk.Because of this I think that getting a wr of 3×3 single,average with 2 hands,one hand or bld is kinda impossible.So what should I do??I consider doing FMC as it does not require a good,it only requires using your brain.

  • @mattevans1643
    @mattevans1643 6 лет назад

    I don't understand when you said block building and F2L are different? They are exactly the same. The only difference is with roux you leave out the 2 edges, everything else is literally the same.

    • @achyuththouta6957
      @achyuththouta6957 6 лет назад +1

      You don't have to use F12 to build the blocks . There is a faster method than F12 to build the blocks.

  • @Marsular

    Your video made me wonder if I should switch to the Roux method (I am not a big fan of the look ahead and stuff either), but I am also not a big fan of the M moves on the cube, not because of the move itself, but more because when I try to do it sometimes my hands feel clumsy and I don't know how I would perform (I presume that a lot of M moves are required for Roux) what should I do ?

    • @criticalcubing
      @criticalcubing  7 лет назад +1

      I thought the same, however M move is easy to get used to and feels natural after some practice. Try out Roux and see if you like it or not :)
