@Cubing Is Life You mean CDO! It is like OCD, but the letters are in the right order, AS THEY SHOULD BE! :DDDD Also: Yeah, my brain did the same thing. I wanted him so bad to turn it back. ^^
@@abxsmal Read my comment again. Think about it. Learn that it was a clever joke about OCD in general and than apologize instead of calling people names.
I have the “monster go cloud” cube. I use it to practice my OLL and PLL. Easier for me to keep track how the pieces of the top layer (for OLL) or the bottom layer (for PLL) move. It’s pretty cube.
@@EmmzMC for PLL, I simply do any alg I want to practice and keep track on how the bottom layer’s pieces move instead of the top during the alg’s steps. You’re correct. The top layer will be solved for pll. Maybe that’s my weird habit. When I do a pll alg, I memorize how the white pieces of the bottom layer go on a normal cube as well. 😅
@@jlightmusic6258 Maybe, but I think understanding better how the pieces move is beneficial on the long run, it will help with things like look ahead in the future.
2:47 I've created cubes like this to try and teach my friends how to cube. I find it useful for me to help teach them, as they focus on a singular step (cross, the first layer, first 2 layers, etc), and then use that knowledge to build up to the next step. If they mess up the first layer, they can use their tunnel-visioned knowledge to solve the cross and try again on the first layer. I managed to teach three people in Minnesota and one of my engineering mates with the cubes. I am always down to try and teach new people how to cube if they are willing to learn.
I think the UT cube is actually useful to practice the last layer algorithms as it's easy to set them up in a position that's one move away from a solve them attempt the algorithms where if there's a mistake made while attempting it then it's easy to reset it and doesn't require solving the whole cube to get it back to the right position
the larger corner cutting a cube has will not matter if the smaller ones are not good enough, it's because of that that the gan xs is so liked by so many people
Training cubes are useful for newbies, but for most of them all you really need to do is remove the stickers. I guess the striped one might not be so easy, but it's just as easy to buy a normal cube and remove stickers, rather than buying a specific cube. Also, the void cube can be achieved by simply removing the centerpiece caps, even if they're stickered. It won't look as good, but great if you just like the challenge of it rather than the aesthetics.
I picked up the UT cube to help me learn to solve the cross. I had a problem where everything would get lost in the colors and the black pieces on the UT cube has helped me identify patterns on my main 3x3 so it actually has helped. However it’s not magnetic so it hasn’t been helpful for practicing speed at all. It’s also a little sticky when starting a turn so it’s not the greatest thing on the market. I wouldn’t recommend it, just get a good 3x3 and practice, practice, practice!
@@Rattus375 There is another variation of ortega on 3x3, where you solve the bottom and top faces, do PLL and solve the E slice with an z rotation and M U moves.
the way I teach a basic method of solving cubes to a couple of friends for casual solving and nothing like speed cubing I can see these cubes be usefull, they have very specific lessons in mind that would make it easy to focus on for a beginner that can be distracted by all 6 colors being everywhere
4:57 Me: Ah, just do a T-perm Dylan: *Dose a U'* Me: What are you doing? Dylan: This is just a T-perm Dylan: *Dose a T-perm left handed* Me: *internal screaming*
I would argue the rainbow cube is good for beginners, because it helps introduce someone to the concept of solving a cube by layers and not one face at a time, but it also looks like a complete puzzle
Hey Dylan, you should do a review on the new Meilong and rs3m 2020. Your reviews are always very blunt in a good way and entertaining to watch! Great job! シ
1:31 reminds me of when I brought a 5x5 to my high school and at lunch I was solving it and a bunch of people saw me and surrounded me and when I solved it everyone starting screaming and celebrating 😅
I think they're useless, if somebody wants to learn how to solve the cube he doesnt buy this ones, and at a lower price we can find better cubes. They're called Monster go because they are made for kids
So for Christmas, i've got a Rubik's brand cube, and for my birthday i convinced my parents to buy me another cube and i've decided to buy the Monster Go Magnetic cube. I've came over here to look at your review and now im sure i will buy it
I bought a magnetic monster go cube off Amazon for £15 I was going to buy a non magnetic meilong for £10 but I saw this and just thought I’d get it happy that it looks better than my Rubiks brand one though. I don’t turn particularly quickly so this one should be fine for me. Thanks for the early look though.
With the rainbow cube, if you start with one of the full face colours in the bottom (orange or white) then that means during f2l, any of the four edges pairs with any one of the corners, and in any orientations. I’m not sure how useful this would be but you could choose which f2l case you want to do without need to set it up, while still making progress and with no need for last layer
