    So, I have boarded the dummy train and I have tried to optimize this method the best I can with my limited knowledge.
    First start with ZZ's EO, this way you don't have to deal with the pain of edge parity later.
    Then solve the belt with moves only. Which is very easy actually.
    Then separate edges and corners using bars. Make bars by placing an edge between two adjacent corners on the opposite side using M' U2 M. Place the top bar on the left and bottom bar on the right and do R2 U2 R2. If you have an odd amount of edges or corners, solve using bars until your at one corner or one edge on each side that needs to swap. To swap one corner on each side, place one corner on top of the other and do (U R U' R')3. to swap one edge on each side, place one edge on top of the other and do M' U2 M.
    From there do OLL and PLL, doing corner twist parity as needed, flip over, OLL, PLL, finish!

    Tymon Kolasinski tried the belt method during Cyoubx's stream yesterday ("Sub-6's on Stream EZ. Learning Pseudoslotting and CN"). He modified the method slightly - he forced a parity skip during piece separation and rearranged the steps. He also got a 14 and then called a 15 "bad".

  • @cubemaster1987
    @cubemaster1987 Před 2 lety +5

    You may be able to make separating pieces easier if you don’t preserve the belt, but only require those 4 edges stay in the middle. One algorithm at the end could fix it easily or be combined with PLL to make it one step (I think this would triple the number of PLL’s)

  • @heatfromsapphire
    @heatfromsapphire Před 3 lety +130

    When I “invented” this method, I actually realized this potential flaw, so I actually would solve the white side, similar to F2L, but only the edges for the belt were in the right spot. This way, I did OLL once on the yellow side (solving mismatch, edge and corner parities) and the would only do PLL on both sides. I still think it’s decently viable but CFOP is just better in every way

    Yes, i think we've all tried it. Good practice for OLL/PLL. Cause you have to do it twice.
    Bad idea when you realize you messed up and have to do much more than you originally planned when even though the pieces are separated, they are still in a configuration that can't be solved without fixing the cube. Really good if you want to do a bunch a u perms.

  • @liamhenderson7367
    @liamhenderson7367 Před 3 lety +5

    My variation on this was to build the top, and bottom faces, then the belt. That way, you don't have to worry about piece separation. You can also build the first face and the belt at the same time, since it's sorta like F2L.
    The major flaw in this method came in the PLLS. Originally, I thought I'd just fix the parity with M2 U2 M2, then (I assumed) I could memorise all the algs to solve both faces at once. That was a no, so I figured I'd ignore parity and just memorise all PLLs, including parity. Still a no go (547 algs. Possible, but probably not worth it). I think the best way would just to do the two faces separately, like you did (I have no idea why I didn't think of that at the time lol).
    Still pretty garbage due to the move count and the rotation at the end, but better than the version you chose ( I think? I'm working on sub 20, so I'm not exactly experienced in this kind of stuff yet).

  • @KanekoYasha
    @KanekoYasha Před 2 lety +1

    Just suggestion, how about doing "oll" on both top and bottom and use 5x5 center building to complete the faces. Then do E perm if both top and bottom have adj. corner swaps by moving the corners to be swapped from the bottom to the top. Then do EPLL and parity (if any).

    I feel like doing EO before the belt could make things more efficient. They maybe you could combine some steps. Something like:
    1. EO
    2. Belt
    3. Separate pieces (edges are easy to recognize when oriented so it might be easier to combine edge and corner separation)
    4. Corner parity
    5. COLL #1
    6. COLL #2
    7. Permute edges

  • @GreenPower713
    @GreenPower713 Před 3 lety +17

    I remember thinking about a similar way to solve it, and thought it would be good, but for a different reason:
    1. Belt
    2. OBL (Orientation of Both Layers)
    3. Top and bottom face separation (if not color neutral, yellow and white)
    4. PBL (Permutation of Both Layer)
    The goal was to save time in bottom layer and permute everything at the end with only one algorithm, like ortega in 2x2 (which might give better algs than normal PLL for some cases (ex opposite J-Perms (R2 U R2 U' D' R2 D R2)). The problem is that it would need about 400 algs for PBL (no idea for OBL) and I don't think it would even be faster.

    There's a WAY better method than CFOP called ZB. You first do F2L up to your last pair but then use an algorithm
    to orient all of the last layer edges. After that, you use a ZBLL algorithm to solve the rest. If there wasn't as many
    algorithms, would you recommend this method or is it still not worth learning? Also, why do the few cubers who use
    this method get slower times than any top speedcubers (like Feliks)?

    Hey! New cuber (and subscriber) here (5 days in, making good progress). I was researching advanced methods and came across a newer method that looks to be an improved version of this belt method. It's called the "Mehta" method. It looks like it was first proposed in 2020, so it's relatively new. But seems to combine some Roux, belt, and CFOP methods. Supposedly it has low move count and mostly relies on algorithms.
    Would you consider doing a video over this method? I think it would be pretty cool and it seems many think it could be a new promising speedcubing method. I'd love to know your thoughts on it vs CFOP and ROUX.

    My pattern is to build a white cross then just put white pieces randomly in that cross. Build the second layer, then third layer, adjust things that needed to adjust then go back to the first layer and do the third layer thing🤣.

I first made the cross without worrying about orientation, then I paired up the belt edge with any bottom layer corner piece in any orientation and inserted it. Then I dealt with parity and then oll/pll. I then improved it by making the cross with 0, 2 or 4 edges oriented correctly which saved the parity later. It was still bad but the steps of putting in cross pieces first in a good orientation and putting corners on the correct layer when doing the belt pieces makes in immensly better. You don't need to worry about edge flip or corner twist parity with my improved version.

    Actually we can make this method more efficient by reducing OLL paritys. Bassicly, when we put wrong for example white edge on the bottom layer, we can determine if it should be white in front or bottom. Same with corners, we can use "edge on place" F2L (only 3 algs, not that much) to insert pieces in correct rotation. Then the only parity left is PLL parity which can be done in 3 moves.

      i personally like to make a pll case on the bottom by solving just the side, then i do the belt with no problem, i do the oll and pll at the top, and if there is a parity then i keep moving anyways, i do the pll case at the bottom, and then i solve the parity there (if there is), then i do the top, and it is solved

  • @gaveferia1421
    @gaveferia1421 Před rokem

    I wonder if you could do it this way:
    1. EO + Belt + Corner separation, and the corners at the bottom are all white and are a valid CLL case. To simplify it, make adjacent corner pairs that are either "lizard eyes" (as in the T case), solved or headlights.
    2. Edge separation. If the corners aren't solved then make an invalid edge permutation at the bottom and if the corners are solved then make a valid edge permutation on the bottom (U, Z, H perm etc)
    3. ZBLL both sides. There should be no parities of any kind
    This should work but at this point just solve with CFOP or even with ZZ

  • @chewpaikgaik6607
    @chewpaikgaik6607 Před 3 lety

    I thought of just solving the belt and also the d face but without permuting the d face. In this way, you only get a pll parity and pseudoslotting actually becomes a pretty viable skill thanks to the amount of freedom you get. Pretty sure someone has thought about this method(I don't know whether it has a name) but it looks way more viable than the belt method

  • @shaunzhang733
    @shaunzhang733 Před 3 lety

    There was a time when I was using Cross, F2L, then Commutators and Conjugates of the last layer (corner and edge 3 cycles). I can either choose to solve corners first, or the edges first.
    But if both the corner and the edges are not solved, I need to make sure that the last layer is in the correct position. Impossible situations will include the following (you may already know this, but I will mention it anyway).
    If there can only be one edge in the correct orientation or permutation, the remaining three edge must all be incorrectly permutated, same thing goes with corners. You cannot have only three unsolved corners or edges with one of them in the incorrect orientation, if this happens, the cube layer is in the wrong position.
    If there are two edges in the correct orientation and location resulted the other two in the correct location but incorrect orientation, that's fine too, same thing can happen with corners,
    If two edges in the correct orientation and location resulted the other two edges in the incorrect location, then the layer is in the wrong position, and this situation can also happen with corners.
    If two pieces are correctly oriented and permutated resulted the other two in the wrong location, I will need to rotate the top layer until there's only one corner or one edge in the correct location, then solve it using commutators.
    If all the last layer corners were solved, the edges would be in their correct position when you line the corners up with their correct colours, if the last layer edges were solved, the corners would be in their correct position when you like the edges up with their correct colours.
    It is possible to solve all the corners first, then the edges, or solve all the edges first, then the corners, you just have to know what you are doing.

    I Never actually thought of doing this. I thought about doing the First 2 layers differently.
    CFOP: Make a cross and then put in ALL of the pairs
    Roux: Make 2 cross edges and the pairs and do the last 2 cross-edges at the end
    Petrus: Make 2 adjacent cross edges and put in the pair between them and repeat that 3 more times.
    All of these work. Just they are very strict. So I combined Petrus F2L with Cfop F2l. So I can put in any of the pairs and any of the cross edges in any order. I went from 25avg to a sub21 average.
    People also say that Petrus is a bad method. I think that it is very good. Unlike Cfop, you don't have to do the crossedges first. But it is also easier to do than Roux Blocks. This is just my opinion and Petrus Helped me To Sub21

    Ah yes, I remember doing the same thing, but first you make the “belt,” then you put the whites and yellows on the correct sides, then you do obl (orient both layers), then you do pbl (permits both layers) then its solved. I called it “The Giftbox Method” since at one point while solving it, it looks like a giftbox. It was until now that I figured out I was not the only one.

  • @happygamer787
    @happygamer787 Před rokem

    I have a possibly sightly better way of doing the method:
    1: EO-Belt. (Do edge orientation and the belt)
    2: Piece seperation. (to keep EO use only R2, U & D moves. My method is to first have a 1x1x2 block (1 edge and center) of the same colour on top, then insert one 'pair' to make it a 1x2x2 then another 'pair' to make a 1x2x3. Finally you pair up the last two corners and edge then insert to finish separation. (if needed use R2 U2 R2 U2 R2 to flip R2 layer).)
    3: OLL on top with one corner ignored.
    4: PLL parity. (M2 U2 M2)
    5: PLL on top
    6: Flip cube, Then use EJLS to twist the last corner and finish OLL at the same time. (If the corner isn't twisted you could use ZBLL to skip step 7)
    7: PLL to finish the cube.
