    0:48 - Top 2 colours are the same, white facing you.
    1:23 - Top 2 colours are the same, white facing you. (Mirror)
    1:45 - White on top, edge colour the same as the corner on the right. (no matching stickers)
    2:38 - Front colours are the same, white on top.
    3:47 - Edge is solved, and the corner is above the solved edge. (triple sexy really easy)
    Hope this helped.

    Do all of this already :P Helpful for beginners. I am guilty of doing the first case wrong too xD

    Drew you are one of my favorite cubers and I love how you make helpful videos and not just solves. I hope you do great and win at nationals

    @debeastdueeast 8 лет назад +53

    I like doing reverse sexy far more than sexy. So I just do triple reverse sexy for that case.

    • @xlance17x60
      @xlance17x60 8 лет назад +2

      same

    • @ethandennis368
      @ethandennis368 8 лет назад +2

      Same, and it's also less moves if you start with the corner on the left side so you don't have to do a u :)

    • @Strikey2G
      @Strikey2G 8 лет назад

      yeah i find it a lot easier too

    • @matejbolta
      @matejbolta 8 лет назад

      +Strikey but 12 vs 11 moves

    • @martinegdal8366
      @martinegdal8366 8 лет назад +1

      +Matej Bolta depends on where the corner is

  • @kalanileibow4076
    @kalanileibow4076 8 лет назад +1

    1:25 Nice, I learned that case from Collin burns 5.25 3x3 wr and use the same one.

    • @kalanileibow4076

      Btw, thanks for this video. I learned a few cases that I did terribly, so thank you!

  • @LLawliet-tv9ig
    @LLawliet-tv9ig 8 лет назад

    Wow, I actually learned something new.........Didn't know you can actally solve triple sexy from the back like that. Now I can save 1 move. Thanks

  • @andrewfreeman5109
    @andrewfreeman5109 7 лет назад

    Nice video and tutorial, Drew!!! Keep up the good work, and keep uploading!!! Thanks! 😄👍🏽

  • @TheCDM1971
    @TheCDM1971 8 лет назад

    Thanks! These are the types of things that might not be obvious in an intuitive way and computer generated algs don't factor in grip friendly/2 gen factors for speed.

  • @adityarajsrivastava6580
    @adityarajsrivastava6580 5 лет назад

    For the last one you can put the corner on the left and then do a right sledgehammer and you will get a 3 move insert .

  • @nix207
    @nix207 8 лет назад

    I found some of these on my own while learning intuitive f2l. The only one I had to search for back then was the last one. So I thought that these were obvious to someone learning intuitive. I guess I was just lucky to find those ways of inserting.

  • @nilscw5840
    @nilscw5840 6 лет назад

    for this awkward case (1:50) you could also do a U + inverse sledge, to set it up to a threemoveinsert

  • @nathanraber.
    @nathanraber. 8 лет назад +1

    thanks Drew, I found this realy helpfull to my f2l solution

  • @hriddhitdatta454
    @hriddhitdatta454 7 лет назад

    for the third case i do this:
    U' R' U' R U' R' U2 R'( to put back the disturbed pair ) R'(or R2) U' R'... flows quite nicely for me!

  • @Ryan.Rivera
    @Ryan.Rivera 8 лет назад

    I found the second to last very helpful, you should make more videos like this!

  • @dagna2698
    @dagna2698 5 лет назад +1

    For 2:36, I just do F (U R U’ R’) F’. Then U’ and insert.

  • @waspio88
    @waspio88 7 лет назад

    At 2:40 I really like the case because it has one of my favorite F2L algs: R U R' U2' (R U R' U') (R U R' U') It can be performed and finger-tricked really well and easily.

  • @ericgu6328
    @ericgu6328 8 лет назад

  • @anirudhsrinivasan8953
    @anirudhsrinivasan8953 7 лет назад

    Drew, in the second f2l case where the white corner was facing up, you can move the piece to a free slot and perform 2 sexy moves which will pair them up

  • @programmingpandemonium7791
    @programmingpandemonium7791 8 лет назад

    Nice video! Personally, I think that you can do way better things for the 4th one. Put the pair in the back by doing AUF, then do R2 U2 R' U' R U' R2. You can also do L F' L' F R U R' but that only works if the pair in the front left isn't already solved. I hope this helped you! :)

  • @Jogie
    @Jogie 7 лет назад

    the last 2 cases are easy white-up inserts... seems faster to split the pair, and to the white-up insert than to do a triple sexy move

  • @sqdium4294
    @sqdium4294 6 лет назад

    2.22 I actualy love this case!

  • @fabiogrundler577
    @fabiogrundler577 8 лет назад

    3:40 is U Sledgehammer 3 move insert so much worse ? ore what shell i do if i have this case buts it s not the right slot to insert ?

    This video helped a lot, I'm currently trying to get better at F2L. thanks!

  • @quieego
    @quieego 7 лет назад

    Hi @XTownCuber But in the first 2 cases you need empty slots! you cannot do those algs at the last pair...

    • @quieego
      @quieego 7 лет назад

      I mean, you used empty slots in those examples

  • @cubeboi2047

  • @michealjameshermano6003

    • @tam7646
      @tam7646 8 лет назад

      ....seriously......move the corner piece to an empty slot in the same column. Problem solve.

  • @EinarKvamLundberg
    @EinarKvamLundberg 8 лет назад

    What do you do if corner-edge are allready setup, but the edge is flipped?

    • @XTownCuber
      @XTownCuber  8 лет назад +1

      cry for a bit then look up algs and see what you like.

    • @EinarKvamLundberg
      @EinarKvamLundberg 8 лет назад

      +XTownCuber Haha, okay :)

  • @royvivat113
    @royvivat113 7 лет назад

    The first case that you said, I had started cubing for like 4 months then took a break and when i got back into it, I noticed that and felt dumb

  • @derek9817
    @derek9817 7 лет назад

    for the second case you could just do the sexy move twice when it is facing you

  • @speedcuberpro1062

  • @vilhelmjohansen2853
    @vilhelmjohansen2853 7 лет назад

    2:25 you can put the pair in the left side and so the slot is in the right then do (F R' F' R) U (R U R') Do the F with thumb.

  • @josephfajardo629
    @josephfajardo629 8 лет назад

    2:40 i have another fast alg for this.. I learnt this by just messing with the cube (intuitive F2L)
    So the alg is: U F' U' L' U L F (insert)
    This alg can also be mirrored.
    Thank me later!

  • @vcubingx
    @vcubingx 7 лет назад

    for 2:42 i just do a sune, then it becomes into a 3 move insert

  • @iamchase4life
    @iamchase4life 7 лет назад

    The alg I came up with for the last case is U (R U R' U') (R U2 R' U) (R U' R'). I thought maybe it was shorter than triple sexy but this was the first time I ever wrote it out and it turns out it's the same number of moves.

  • @ChrisCuber123
    @ChrisCuber123 8 лет назад +4

    for the 4th case (the worst one) i use R U R' U2 double sexy

    • @jasonthecuber
      @jasonthecuber 8 лет назад

      Yes I do it U2', so it's basically triple sexy with a U' after the first one.

  • @joeewbank2873
    @joeewbank2873 8 лет назад

    For the pair at 1:45, I do double sexy to pair up - then just insert it.

    • @XTownCuber
      @XTownCuber  8 лет назад

      yes, that's what you shouldn't be doing. (generally, except for eo cases etc.)

  • @xl7545
    @xl7545 8 лет назад

    Should I learn full pll or intuitive f2l first? I'm currently with 2 look oll and pll, a corner based f2l, yes that's a thing, and average about 30 seconds

  • @alejandroleiva2061

  • @PraetorianCuber
    @PraetorianCuber 8 лет назад +1

    I'd love to see more of these tutorial type videos, drew, how do you solve this case? sets up with F' U' F U R U' R' U2, I use the inverse of this set up to solve it

    • @XTownCuber
      @XTownCuber  8 лет назад

      depending on EO and how it's set up etc I do either U2 R U' R' or U' R U R' and then insert. there's other fancier ways too like U' l U' R U l' U R'.

    • @PraetorianCuber
      @PraetorianCuber 8 лет назад

  • @SpencerAnd
    @SpencerAnd 8 лет назад

    For the third case (the bad one) I use R' U' R U' R' U2 R2 U2 R'. (If there's no pair in the back then you replace the U2s with U then U')

    in 2nd case (no match, not the mirrored one) can't u just do a double sexy? its 2-gen so its faster

    • @XTownCuber
      @XTownCuber  7 лет назад

      The algorithm I showed is also two gen but is much, much faster. You won't find a top tier solver who regularly uses double sexy for that case.

  • @PraetorianCuber
