    D’ = counter clockwise turn.
    B = clockwise turn of the Back side while facing it.
    B’ = counterclockwise turn. * Remember CW & CCW is as if facing that side
    A lower case letter means we turn that side and the Center layer with it, whether it be the Right, Left, Front, Back, Up, or Down.

      @@KTFG my comment was more to compliment you on your skills and not to complain :) Also, I went through a dozen videos yesterday trying to find one that's easy to understand and follow. Yours wan the inly one I watched till the end and rewatching it today all over again. Why? Cause I love it! A bit more practice and I will be able to solve it all by myself. Then I'll teach my 4 y/o daughter all of that :)
      Btw, the gear icon and settings didn't help - you're still too fast for me. So I paused the video and kept pressing '' to go back and forth frame by frame.

      At 25:53 I explain that we find two corners the same and we place them to the back. That is the important part and is done slowly. How I move them to the back or how quickly I moved them to the back the third time after showing the same move is irrelevant.
      I make this more clear in future tutorials, you’re not supposed to follow my every movement especially when I’m repeating it fast after I’ve already taught how to do it and I’m just showing how quickly and easily it can be done once familiar.
      But thank you for taking your time to explain to me your troubles because I will use that information in future tutorials.
      Remember to treat it like a question on a test that you don’t know. Skip it and go on and usually the question will answer itself either through your “now” better understanding or by actually giving you the information in a different manner.

I went thru many other tutorials and only get ever so confused, then I remembered Kevin's 3 yrs old daughter, I am so thankful to find this youtube again! It's the best ever! This video deserves more views and likes! I still could solve the 1st 2 layers easily and yellow cross, but need to look at the algorithm for small/big fish, then the corner & final 😀 Thank you so much Kevin for making this so easy for us!

    this is super great. the only thing is that I know it's hard for you to go a bit slower with the turns, but I think it would help people fallow you if you don't flick the middle finger so fast it looks like nothing moved it was so fast. just a thought thanks for the vid still trying to break my way of solving the cube. I kind of made my own way and it takes me a long time to do it and yes, this vid helps me do it so much faster thank you for that.

    ******************** This is Important!*
    Recommended learning & practice schedule to learn the Rubik's Cube:
    Day 1 - Layer 1 & 2
    Day 2 - Refresh Day 1, Yellow Cross, Little Fish & Big Fish
    Day 3 - Refresh Day 1 & 2, Double Fish & No Fish
    Day 4 - Refresh and practice Days 1, 2 & 3
    Day 5 - LL Fix Corners and Edges
    *Note: it’s important to sleep between learning new things, it boots the information in the brain like saving a parameter with a reset.
    Don’t try to learn too much in one day. It seldom matters how fast you learn something but rather how well you learn something

      Problems with Layer 2?
      At 11:45 I explain and demonstrate how to locate and insert an Edge into the Right side of Layer 2.
      If your Edge needs to go to the Left side,
      Just do the mirror of that from the Left side as seen at 14:58 . Orange touching Orange, Green away from Green (turn top CCW rather than CW) kick the Corner out and chase the Edge, pair up and re-insert.
      Make sure to look at and understand the concept of connecting Corners and Edges, not just follow notation.
      When filming I had an even number of solves from both sides (Left & Right) but when editing I accidentally got a disproportionate number of solves from the Right side.
      Let me know if that helps.

    I learned cubing first time last year from watching this video. I’m a middle aged working mom and not as quick as young kids, but I was able to learn in three days (only in the evening after work), each layer per evening.
    Even though now I watch JPerm more(sorry...), I can say that this video is the BEST for beginners. Far better than any other popular cubers out there. It’s also easier to move to CFOP.
    This deserves 10 million views.
    (The only issue was the flick was sometimes too fast for me as a beginner, so I watched with slower playing speed like x.5 or x.25. Then the sound becomes really funny, but it helped)

    • @KTFG
      @KTFG  Před 4 lety +3

      That's awesome. Thank you for the support and honest feedback. In future tutorials I will try to slow down the turns.

      @SunMinGroot Před 4 lety +2

      Kevin Gittemeier I explored a few beginner method videos and concluded that your video was the best in the end.
      I love how you explain the first layer by tapping the white sticker on the side, and second layer by chasing special rabbits, and third layer with little fish and big fish concept instead of calling it sune.
      It’s such a great way to remember.
      But as a beginner, it was hard to see quick turn as simple as sexy moves or sledge hammer when I had no idea about basic turns.
      I think that’s why it was the hardest to learn the first layer, then second layer, and actually third layer was the easiest to learn cuz it’s based on algorithm (and you kindly shows the notation on screen)
      If you have any plans to upload beginner video again, I want to say keep the method as it is (it’s great, nothing to change), just move it a bit slower (even simple move like RUR’ to kick the wrong edge out) so that beginners can see where the piece actually goes and how it moves. (I watched over and over again with .25x play speed to fully understand)
      Now I moved to CFOP but still sometimes watch this video. Now it just makes so much more sense than I watched first time!

    • @KTFG
      @KTFG  Před 4 lety

      Thanks, I eventually will make another 3x3 tutorial incorporating the feedback I received on this one, namely slowing down.
      I will get some more practice and experience making tutorials doing the others (Megaminx, Pyraminx etc) then when I remake the 3x3 is should be better.
      It was a lot more work than I anticipated and my time is limited so it’s difficult for me to make these.
      Emily tried to make a Pyraminx tutorial but had to shoot several takes and the final one she said wasn’t worthy of editing so she’ll have to shoot it again. It just takes practice, experience, failure and time. Her time is even more limited than mine though.

    I'm 46 years old and just lost my year old 74 father to dementia a few months ago. They say the best thing one can do in terms of prevention is stay active and challenge the brain in new ways. So I've been inspired to learn lots of new things, and here I sit - with my kids' Rubik's Cube. I was doing great until white corners.... white corners on top sides, all good. But white corners "not where they belong" ... *face palm.* Not sure if you realize but for a person picking up a Rubik's cube to solve for the first time ever, you're FLYING through those moves SO fast, I have no idea what you're doing! Lol And explaining like "oh by the way" nonchalantly without really specifying how to get those top whites or bottom side whites to where they DO belong. I'm sure people who are more familiar with the moves know exactly what you mean. But there's no slo-mo on CZcams, so mama's strugglin'....and stuck! Lol I tried watching a couple other videos and got even more confused so I came back to yours, and it really is a great video....don't get me wrong. It's not you, it's me lol.
    Somehow I finally ended up doing it "accidentally" (getting those white corners in), but still not sure how to do it.
    I tried moving on, but there are even more parts that are still SO fast...and someone commented it helped to have the stickers off and the blank cube faces, but for some reason it's really screwing me up. You're obviously a pro, and can fly through those moves without a thought. :) I'm still in the stages of saying the move out loud LOL and deliberately moving one section at a time [slowly], etc etc etc. You could be a magician with that slight of hand haha.... I just can't see it. And I'm no dope, I have a BA degree and MA degree and have been doing lots of other things to stay sharp. But my children's Rubik's cube.....that's where my ability I learn new things ends?? Kind of worrisome, like am I losing my mind already??
    I will keep trying - I'm no quitter. But seriously, OY! :)

    I had been watching tons of videos for solving the last part (either the corners or the yellow part) but neither of them helped me... until this video helped me...at first, i didn't mind this video because I don't want my pride being crushed by a three year old that is able to solve it😅😅😅Thankyou for the help... I had lots of fun😁

      When I got my cube no algorithms were known yet, so it took me 7 hours to solve it. I still have it, it doesn't turn very fast though. It has blue opposite of white, yellow opposite of green.

    I like his idea of showing us with the stickers removed for each step! I am thinking of purchasing a Lego one in which the colors are removable and mastering each step until the cube has no more blank spots.

    • @KTFG
      @KTFG  Před 3 měsíci

      Good idea, but don’t be afraid that you won’t get it solved. You will eventually and worst case scenario you can disassemble a regular cube and reassemble correctly. Many people have a fear of messing up or making mistakes but this short 1 minute video will dissuade that thought.

    Problems with Layer 2?
    At 11:45 I explain and demonstrate how to locate and insert an Edge into the Right side of Layer 2.
    If your Edge needs to go to the Left side,
    Just do the mirror of that from the Left side as seen at 14:58 . Orange touching Orange, Green away from Green (turn top CCW rather than CW) kick the Corner out and chase the Edge, pair up and re-insert.
    Make sure to look at and understand the concept of connecting Corners and Edges, not just follow notation.
    When filming I had an even number of solves from both sides (Left & Right) but when editing I accidentally got a disproportionate number of solves from the Right side.
    Let me know if that helps.

      Lol,
      When unfamiliar with things we tend to believe they are more difficult than they really are. As we become more familiar from training, time and practice, most things become easy.
      Good luck

    This video has good tips like what to do if during first layer phase there's a white "on top", saving moves. Also it helps visualize and understand what's going on during second layer corner alignment.
