First Two Layers, or F2L refers to the first two bottom layers of the 3x3x3 cube, or essentially all layers up until the last layer on larger cubes. The definition is a little different depending on the …

Approaches Petrus F2L Another way to solve the 'F2L' is by building blocks, common during the first two layers of the Petrus method.

The sledgehammer is a Rubik's cube algorithm used to solve specific cases in the F2L stage.

OLS, an acronym for Orientation of the Last Slot, is a last slot method used to skip OLL while simultaneously solving the last F2L pair. All OLS cases can be solved using one of the …

The ZZ method is a 3x3 speedsolving method created by Zbigniew Zborowski in 2006. The method is focused both on low move count and high turning speed; during the majority of F2L, …

Pseudoslotting is an advanced F2L technique used by many world class cubers, most notably Tymon Kolasinski. Pseudoslotting occurs when at least 2 or 3 slots are available, a corner has …

Mar 28, 2021 · Get used to intuitive F2L, then move onto the algs. They aren’t that hard, but I suggest you fully master intuitive F2L and learn the hard cases first. Practice. But not just …

CFOP (Cross, F2L, OLL, PLL, pronounced C-F-O-P or C-fop) is a 3x3 speedsolving method proposed by several cubers around 1981. It is also known as the Fridrich Method after its …

Aug 28, 2024 · Petrus was the second most popular speedcubing method behind CFOP. The Petrus Method, invented by Lars Petrus, is a block-building method where the F2L is solved …

Jun 3, 2020 · The F2L methods (CFOP (AKA Fridrich method), Petrus) can be done intuitively. Note that before doing the last pair, you have an opportunity to orient the edges. Finally you …
