something that makes cube solving intuitive. Makes the final 2 centers easy to finish.Thank you. Created in 2006, the speedcubing community has grown from just a few to over 35,000 people that make up the community today. Learning to use one heneral purpose alg that can be modified (usually a Niklas) doesn't really do much.A common misconception is that algs are hard. Most 3×3×3 Rubik's Cube solution guides use the same notation, created by David Singmaster, to communicate sequences of moves. It's impossible to solve unless you meki permNew comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be castFor people who love any sort of twisty puzzles, including but not limited to: Rubik's Cubes (and any size/design variants), the Square 1, the Pyraminx and more.Looks like you're using new Reddit on an old browser.

Niklas is more for NxN puzzles, and Sledgehammer works on Skewb/Pyraminx. It's going to take time to develop intuition about what turns do to the pieces, but it's a useful skill whether you want to go very fast or not.Commutators can not solve OLL, you'll need conjugates for that.You can solve any cube (not pseudo-cube like square-1) but you don't find it intuitive/natural? I could have a 3x3 one move away from solving, and you could perform three arbitrary moves, and I likely couldn't undo those three moves.Commutators will help you solve any puzzle, but it's going to be a few pieces at a time. Sledgehammer does a adjacent swap. Recommended for you Every corner piece has one facelet that belongs in the U or the D face.

Welcome to the 6x6 and 7x7 tutorials on CubeSkills! I've memorized about a dozen or so algorithms (i.e.
I made a video on the Niklas (piece-isolating) commutator and how it can be used to solve the entire 3x3x3 puzzle (of course, an extra quarter turn will be needed to solve odd permutation positions) as well as hinting on how it can be used to solve larger cube sizes.

Or, scramble your cube with a few random moves without looking, and try to solve it with the same number of moves - start with 2 or 3, and if that's too easy add another move. Is this a commutator?I think it is. Mess around with it on a solved cube to see what it does when you replace all the L and R moves with slice moves and you should understand how to use it to solve centres.

In this video we are taking a look at commutators and how to apply them to the last centers on big cubes! I thought that, from what I read on forums etc and watching videos that the 7x7x7 would be very similar to the 5x5x5 so i've given it ago for quite a while and been watching tutorials to help me.But I can't figure out the last two centers. 3x3x3 and 6x6x6, are also available) JavaScript is disabled. So yeah, commutators and conjugates as well as simple F2L for those two.

I got it off a friend and the pieces were missing so put stickers on them to make them look a bit better lolJump to just the before the 5 minute mark to find the same position you are in. Be sure to give the video a like guys and follow me on twitter! ?this looks slightly more efficient than what I do, I'll have to practice this later on tonight. Is there some "system" I can teach myself so that I'm not just memorizing a dozen different convoluted algorithms? The Niklas is a common commutator applicable to many puzzles. The commutator is: r U' l' U r' U' l U (it's a variation of the "Niklas" algorithm if you're familiar with it). Here's a move sequence you can use to get that position. The general idea is to have the two pieces you want to swap on the same vertical slice, then you slice the top one down from U to where it needs to be on F. Redo the original F move, then move the second slice back up and you are done.This is the exact method I use, for essentially all of the centers in big cubes.Red on top green in front do U' 3l' U 2r' U' 3l U 2r'If you know niklas (R U' L' U R' U' L U) then that's the only comm you need. I keep getting to this point and can't figure out how to swap them. The only thing is that in solving the 3x3, you want to make sure you don't change the orientation of your faces.

Hahaha. How to solve a 4x4x4, 5x5x5 Rubik's cube, or higher Here are some basic principles: Since on larger than 3x3x3 cubes, there is a parity problem, solving those cubes in an efficient manner requires to do it in a different order than what is usually done for the 3x3x3. It sounds like what you want is intuition of how to build blocks and put pieces together. A general knowledge of how centre commutators work will help though.New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be castFor people who love any sort of twisty puzzles, including but not limited to: Rubik's Cubes (and any size/design variants), the Square 1, the Pyraminx and more.Looks like you're using new Reddit on an old browser.

Learn how to easily solve 7x7x7 Rubik's cubes. Makes the final 2 centers easy to finish. In this module I will show you how to apply the reduction method to the 6x6 and the 7x7 cubes. The 6x6 and 7x7, from a puzzle standpoint, DO contain different elements than the 4 and 5.
