What Algorithms are WORTH Learning? 

It's worth learning the good cases (but not necessarily all of the cases) of every algorithm set I mentioned! Except: VHLS: don't learn this. ZBLS: only if you plan to learn lots of ZBLL. Any alg set not worth learning by today's standards has been left out of the video.

Me, who only knows 2 look OLL/PLL: Nice

Make a Video in which you give a tier to every Algorithm set

just learn a couple quintillion algorithms to 1 look the whole cube instead

"Sexy Sledge" is honestly one of the weirdest cubing terms I've heard

Soon, we will be memorizing algorithm sets for solving the whole cube in one algorithm.

How 4 days of planning my first pair has changed cubing for me: i have an interesting story about planning my first pair. I don't really know how to describe this phenomenon I had, but I will try my best. about 4 days ago i actually tried to start planning my first pair, like actually trying. i have been stuck around 15 seconds for months now, and i decided to give it a try. i would take 2 minutes on each scramble just trying to plan out where every piece moved, once i knew where they would all go, i would add an extra move to see how far ahead i could look. I immediately saw a .5-1 second difference. i woke up the next day, not expecting much, and i immediately came back where i left off. I could plan so much further ahead, but i needed about 30 seconds. I was surprised by this, one day made this much of a difference. WHAT REALLY BLEW MY MIND: I am duel color neutral (White and Yellow), but after 3 days of practicing my first pair, I am almost consistently behind 2 seconds on all crosses now. I tried for months to catch up on blue/green/orange/red, and these couple days "Unlocked" something where i can do different crosses easier (I have to attempt to plan first pair or they will be sub-par compared to W/Y.) So in 4 days total, my times have dropped from 15 average to 13.5 average, i broke my pb twice (now 8.63), broke my AO5 with 11.30, broke my AO12 with 12.39, and broke my AO50 with 13.39. If you've managed to read all this, PLEASE PLAN YOUR FIRST PAIR!!!! in DAYS it has improved my solves and i have a higher motivation to improve than ive ever had. I know its difficult, i put it off for so long, but i knew i would never make sub-10 without planning first pair. JUST DO IT!!! bonus notes: acouple days ago i wouldnt even be able to track my second pair, and now i can plan it in my scramble on easy crosses, my biggest struggle is making all the solutions to the cross + 1st f2l into one fluid motion. I cant imagine where ill be months from now. Dont waste your time trying to improve by doing the same thing. PLAN 1ST PAIR. WORK ON 2 SIDED PLL RECOGNITION. BURN EVERY ALGORITHM INTO YOUR BRAIN. and something people dont realize is much easier than you think, LEARN FULL OLL. You will improve so much quicker Thank you for reading EDIT: I just got my first sub-10 average ever. previous best was 10.29 and i got 9.73 today. (July 30, 2021)

Hearing winter variation gave me chills, cuz now I know all of cfop quite well, these are like secret bosses

Agh why is you’re content so good it’s like I can’t stop watching it

9:57 look at the boy in the background.

Imma start learning the 1L4ALAO set of algorithms *1 Look For All Layers At Once* A.K.A. ATPS *All The Possible Scrambles*

Unbelivable video! It explains all these last layer methods! I never knew anything about them but kept hearing about em all the time.

Hey, J Perm! I literally did the algorithm at the time around 8:09 in the chapter ZB law. And it gave me a J perm! Amazing 😉

Literally the Feliks Zemdegs of tutorials

Absolutely fascinating. I got my first taste of cubing in 1982 when I was 10/11 years old and Rubix was huge back then. Then I got back into it in 2005 and learned a lot of the algorithms, and even competed here in the UK (in 2012). I've managed sub 30 average, but it has been on the back burner since 2013. I've watched a few of the bigger cubing channels out there in the last few years and I pick up my 3x3 every now and then and cube for a few hours. But lately I've been missing it and now (at 49 years old) I feel like picking it up again and going even deeper with the learning, and aiming for sub 20 at some point. Your video was very inspirational.

Bro thank you so much VLS helped out a lot!

4:44 Here, I just use: (R' U') (R' U') (R' U) (R U R), which is part of one of the U-Perm algs.

for BLE, an easy but probably slower alternative is to use an edge commutator, like a U perm. You set up the edge you want to insert to the UF sticker, and bring its slot to the UR sticker, then you can do a u perm with an AUF prior to it, or R2 U' R2 S R2 S' U R2 and undo the set ups

You have amazing videos, also, really concise and easy to understand tutorials

before I learned these, I just thought that whatever I did to insert the last F2L and solve the top was merely a convenience. Now i understand I've been using some of these algs without knowing.

Now Someone Needs To Introduce JPLL ( J PERM LAST LAYER )

When I get a cross case I use COLL (or occasionally one of the few ZBLLs I know) and I can say it’s worth learning and not too difficult to learn if you know CLL on 2x2, I’m about to start learning some winter variation cases

Thank you so much, Im confused what I should learn for LL, now I can easily choose it, thank you

Thanks 🙏 it helped !

I’ve ended this video for ages as I’m looking at learning some new algorithms thanks again

For the second BLE case you showed (where all the OLL pieces are facing up), there's a much shorter alg you can use, although it uses E moves With the slot to your left and edge in front (matching with the centre) do: R' E R U' R' E' R (E moves follow same direction as D moves) You can optionally do u U' for the last E move if you find it suits you better

I use Cfop method mostly Advanced FTL and This helped alot

I’ve contemplated using ELL instead of OLLCP. If you get a regular OLL, just solve the corners and do ELL.

5:24 3x sledge hammer also works

Also a great Subset of ZBLL which is definitely worth it would be 2GLL, so all the ZBLLs that only use R and U moves, and there are 82 Cases. I think it's the only Alg Set that's worth it to learn completely.

outstanding solutions

Thanks for this. Just got back to cubing after 30 years away from the thing as my 6 year old girl showed interest. This video is amazing

Thank you for this.

Me thinking whether I should learn VHLS Also me: only knows 42 OLLs

This was very helpful thx

Thx Jperm for telling me what alg to do

I've just learned intuitive f2l and have memorized all 2 looks for the last layer. In a couple of weeks, and have a sub 60 second PB. Then I watch some advance alg videos and ponder my future of cubing 😥

5:24 can be solved in one look only 72 algs. It's called TTLL.

Thank you for clearing up what these terms mean and what alg set they belong to! 👍

I got a car ad before this came on and the first line was: “we are defined by algorithms”

ZBLL seems worth learning more and more since edge orientation is a step or substep in Roux, ZZ, and APB, and CFOP even benefits from it

Few decades later: Should you learn full 1LLL (1 look of last layer?)

Enjoying the videos j perm Keep up the good work.

Good video idea!

I used to think professional cubers would just have to do the whole thing at once

At 5:20 you can do triple sledge!

First time In years that I'm excited for learning, incredible

3:47, a simple case of this is Doing an S(or maybe S') before inserting the pair and the undo the S move

Congrats for 175k subs

Cfop for me is it's C-Cross F-F2L's O-Over P-Powered

Thanks J Perm!!!

I used to work on navy vessels for a living, and hearing VLS gave me whiplash

Wow Anthony Brooks knows thousands of algorithms

1:10 it just sounds like he’s saying it’s easy to learn 57 long oll algs lol

Thanks so much

Congrats on 175K subs

Heyyy jperm upload!!

Hey guys, I have a question about Speedcubes. Is it recommendable to use a cube without lubing it? Or is it necessary to lube a good cube?

This is the video I wated for. Thank you a lot

Love ur vids

Challenger approaching V Perm

This video is so helpful! I was just thinking, "OLL literally makes me want to die. SO. MANY. ALGS. What ones are worth learning?" Scans J Perm. "GASP! Found something!" Thank you so much!

I really wanted this video

I’ve been fidgeting with cubes and solving them since 2007. Im a fast 30-35 second average with beginner method and only just now deciding to learn cfop. Wish me luck

The time is 2100: me, yes got my first sub 4, J perm, yes got my first sub 1 Felix, yes got my first sub milo second

Can you make a video on how to memorize rare algorithms please (because they never show up and I hesitate to remember the algorithm)

For last layer solve I do the oll and pll of the yellow cross then oll and pll of the corners.

In cfop method is like 100 and more algortims that icludes full f2l full OLL and FULL PLL

Could you do a tutorial for OMLL? (one move last layer)

Wait...there's more than 4 algorithms? 🤯

Amazing video

This. This is what I like to do instead of practising for my calculus exam.

yeah who would avoid learning full oll and use that vhls + coll combo for years?? absolutely not me. nope not at all. i'm not crying.

*J Perm Uploads* Me: *Clicks*

totaly agree

I use vhls rarely but I honestly think it’s pretty good if learning zbll

COLL, ZZLL and ZBLL are pretty much the only viable ones out of these imo

will you review the yuxin little magic 4x4 m beacuse i need to know if its better than wuque🤷‍♂️

Please make a video on 'Pyraminx Advanced Method' with all algorithms

thx bro

What about the 43 quintillion one look crossf2lollpll algorithms?

You have exactly 175k Subscribers when I am making this comment Edit: never mind two more people subbed

9:12 bro i did not know that f2l trick holy crap, I struggle with that alot

COLL stands for Corners and Orientation Last Layer

JPerm: Talks about OLS and ZBLL 'cause he's a pro. Me: Cringes at 0:26 E-perm.

This is how many algorithms J Perm knows I I I V

This is my favorite cubing video. I've watched this video so many times. If there is any room for a follow up, or a more in depth video, please make it! Edit: Coming here after seeing on Twitter that someone learned 1LLL.

Can you make a video with algorithms you can use if your last f2l slot is missing an edge and you want to insert the edge and at the same time orienting the last layer edges

Why am I watching this I average 20

No views but 9 comments. Well done RU-vid. Let's get a round of applause people.

I use the one look layer Alg that you showed instead for F' (L' U' L U) Case

Congratulations on getting 401k subscribes

Fantastic

my algorthim is basically solving f2l and then solving the third layer with beginners alg because im not ready for oll and pll yet

can you make more 2x2 and 3x3 bld example solves ?

Speaking of algs. Is it worth learning all the f2l algs and variants for desired slot before memorizing oll and pll? I mean yeah f2l algs seem pretty short but that'd be easily over 150 algs by my estimation. Surely it would be better to stick with intuitive f2l and learn full oil and pll, before circling back and committing to learning all those f2l algs wouldn't it? I'm just thinking the return on investment would be pretty low with f2l compared to having 2lll down. But please lmk what you think of my assumption. Thanks

Tbh jperm is my fav cus it easy

Congrats for 175000 subs

Brooks last edge is also known as autumn Variation

OLL & PLL solve the last layer in 2 algs... that is pretty OP!
