“Yesterday I took the SAT, then I did some school 😂“ life of the student cuber. Great video! You are like a really amazing editor and great storyteller, and I could tell that went into this one.
great docu style video alex! one cool thing i would've like to have seen was you doing a roux example solve near the beginning , middle and end of the month to show how you've improved in terms of efficiency finger tricks and algs learnt otherwise top tier video!
Great video! I once switched to roux for a while too, but I didn't get that fast even though it was even longer than one month, so what you did is really impressive. Now I might think of doing that again
Holy shit the storytelling is actually nuts, like the how theres more and more cubes coming in on the day counter symbolizing how you got into cubing. Good job!
Thanks!! I liked using the tornado v3 (the m slices were pretty heavy though), the Moretry Tianma, and the rs3m super. If I had to pick one for roux, I would pick the Tianma
Great video and editing! After seeing this you’ve inspired me to try the same thing! I have done about 100 solves with Roux over like the last year so I have a bit of an idea. Also, did you learn full Cmll? And do you mind if I make a video of my progression for a month like this? If I post it on YT I’ll definitely give you credit!
Cool! I started learning full CMLL, but I haven’t finished it yet. I think I’ve learnt a little more than half of the algorithms. Yea you can post a video on your progression! I’d love to check it out once it comes out :)
Yesterday I was actually thinking about your channel and when you would make a video. I think you have a great potential to become a big cubing RUclipsr
I started roux back on covid 19 home quarantine times, within that time i can consistently do sub 10 solves and can definitely say that it's easier to learn than cfop
Roux: takes under one month to get sub 20( this guy is built different) Cfop: hi guys i just started cubing and i am 21 years old Bro at 98 yess finally learned full Cfop💀
I have been cubing for like 7 or 8 months, and when I was averaging around 16 seconds with cfop, I was like, "hmm, why don't I try roux?" and I did, and now after a couple of months, I am averaging 16 seconds with roux. Once I am finished learning full cmll, I am sure that I can get to sub 15. Knowing both methods helped me to get method neutral for cfop/roux. Being method neutral definitely has its benefits, like not getting bored of cubing, and also it can help you take advantage of good scrambles. I recently got my new pb of 8.61, starting with roux, and once I finished the blocks, the cross edges were solved so I switched to cfop mid solve and it got me my pb. Anyways, great video!
The V3 is a great cube, and I would main it if I hadn’t just gotten the ys3m (which is great btw). I just like going back to the V2 sometimes. Despite being its predecessor, the V3’s feel is noticeably different when compared to the v2 (which isn’t a bad thing). So every now and then I like going back to the V2, and for some reason my CH V2 is really good lol. But yeah, the V3 is better, and it is the cube I recommend as of rn (might change with the ys3m, but I just got it so I’m not sure yet)
On a cube racing app i just raced against a roux solver he was avg 15-20 seconds and i was about the same on cfop fresh from waking up i won because i got a lucky 11 solve not oll skip
as a sub-55 solver, dont recommend to learn so many plls so soon, i know at most like 35 plls and i have a 50.36 official avg, focus on star, f2l and s2l efficiency first, but if you want to learn plls first, that's your thing, stay on it :D

I average 13-11 with cfop and I have to say that I love watching your videos while I do my averages. I think you do a great job being professional with your content and it’s the think I’ve been missing with cubing videos. Thanks for being an inspiration for me to cube!!
@@CubingWithAlex Thanks, I also watched Kian mansour tutorials But it would be very nice if you can give me the link of the videos Since I am bored from CFOP and sometimes I get really bad times with it so, I want to get sub-20 with roux in 1 month :)
Alex, also how you made your first and second block efficient? Since I take around freaking 15 seconds to complete my first and second block only :( I dont know how to make my blocks efficient :(

Hey Alex I have some kinda request cause your video about zz and roux was magnificent Im gonna ask you to do something like them for Abp method Thanks a lot Your fan Harrison Hoxley ❤️💜
What i gathered: Roux is good for PB's. Roux is for the intelligent but lazy, those who refuse to learn and blindly grind 100s of algorithms to get faster solves.
after seeing this vide i start to think i am bad at cubing and want to give up, bro in month got roux sub 20/15 and i cant do cfop sub 20 for so long dam
It just takes time and consistency. I’m sub-13 with CFOP, so I was able to get sub-20 with roux pretty easily due to many of my CFOP skills crossing over to roux. It took me like 4 years to become sub-20 with CFOP (due to me taking many long breaks). The best advice I can give you is to just keep practicing and don’t give up!
How about: ZZ method Petrus method Corners First method Blindfolded method Heise method Layer By Layer method FMC method?

I mainly do CFOP, but Roux is definitely a really good method, and it is very fun. I'm glad you had fun learning Roux.
Really nice editing on this video! And im very surprised you learnt it so quickly. :D
sub 12 roux user here, great job progressing through learning the method! Your blockbuilding is nice
Thanks!!
Great vid. I really like the idea of going back in time & redoing the cube journey. I think I'll give Roux a shot! Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow Alex, good job!!!!!
What you put in your mine, you will do it!!!!!
Love it!!
Congratulations!!!
Thank You!!!!
Great video! I average 11 with roux, and this brought back memories!
Glad you enjoyed it!!!
Roux is more fun . Impressive to see how fast you improved
Wow this is was a really cool challenge and you did a great job with the video too.
Thanks :D
This was a really well made video!!
Btw you can easily become sub-15 if you just get good at lse haha.
Bro, just found out your channel and exploring and it is just EPIC! New sub :)
Thanks!!!!

cfop cuber, tried to learn roux before and I gave up immediately after I saw the example solves lol, but now I think I'll take a try.

Super vidéo. Tu m’as motivé à commencer Roux, je me lassais un peu de CFOP
Congrats for 3.81k subs brother❤❤
Thanks!!!
Do the same thing with FreeFOP, i average low 12/ hig 11 with it.
U have the cubehead mat drip
Roux: takes under one month to get sub 20( this guy is built different)
Cfop: hi guys i just started cubing and i am 21 years old

Dude has been using several cubes throughout his journey.
Why don’t you use the Tornado V3? Do you really think the V2 is better? The V3 is incredibly good, and I’d be surprised if it’s predecessor is better.
The V3 is a great cube, and I would main it if I hadn’t just gotten the ys3m (which is great btw). I just like going back to the V2 sometimes. Despite being its predecessor, the V3’s feel is noticeably different when compared to the v2 (which isn’t a bad thing). So every now and then I like going back to the V2, and for some reason my CH V2 is really good lol. But yeah, the V3 is better, and it is the cube I recommend as of rn (might change with the ys3m, but I just got it so I’m not sure yet)
Do the same thing but with ZZ, it´s really fun method
And don't forget to memorize 419 Zbll for it ;)
On a cube racing app i just raced against a roux solver he was avg 15-20 seconds and i was about the same on cfop fresh from waking up i won because i got a lucky 11 solve not oll skip
Cool!!
besides the block trainer, any other tips on improving blocks?
Awsome video :)
Thanks :)
Now since you’ve masteredboth cfop and roux you should go back to cross -1 and make it even better
Now I'm curious if you could do this all again but with Petrus. Still in one month using a new method you get sub 20, is really impressive.
APB*
ZZ
Mehta
*BELT*
A reason why I learned roux is for OH, thought it was a cheat code to break the program.
Turns out my brain is not smart
Hey you can make this a series with diffent methods like aBP Mehta ZZ CFCE and more
I would love to do that!! Thanks for the great idea!!
mehta and apb kinda irrelevant tho lol
i just realised i said this; cfce and mehta still irrelevant, but apb not so much lol

Just watch the next 5 seconds lol

ur so cool i wish i could solve like u do and make vids like urs
