He explained it so much better then anyone else this is the first video I didn't give up on because I actually clearly understood him every other hundred videos they made no sense. Awesome gonna solve my cube now !!!!!
Yeah
Pl 0😊@@hadassahmaibani2206
I already knew how to solve a cube (mostly) but this video made the algorithms much easier to remember. Thank you
I just wanted to say THANK YOU GREG! Finally after watching so many videos I can do the cube. Everyone rushes the videos made and it’s never slowed down to help people. I was OBSESSED with learning this in 7th grade. But I could never understand it and gave up multiple times and my cube collected dust. Here I am years later and I finally can do it. You’re the best!
Hi💕, hope you’re having a good day, I hope you don’t mind me spreading the gospel with you, so here it goes just wanted you to know that God loves you and wants you to experience peace and life in a better way and eternally.But bc we disobey God and go our own sinful ways we r separated from Him,but Jesus Christ lived a perfect life for you & died on the cross and rose from the grave for you,He paid the penalty for our sins and bridged the gap between God and us so if you trust Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and receive Him by personal invitation you receive that free gift and eternal life, have a blessed day, byee💕
Brilliant a wish 🤞
Hi Greg, I have searched for a video to show friends online an easy way to solve this Rubik's cube, using my method, just 4 simple algorithms. And here you are, having posted a video with 4 simple algorithms, albeit not exactly similar algorithms because of the orientation of the cube held in hand. I believe this is the simplest method, and your pace is easy to follow, and more people ought to have appreciated it. Thank you very much.
i have watched many different people try to explain these algorithms and when to use them, its nice to finally see another one that makes sense.
If someone needs a summary: 1. White cross: do it somehow :D 2. Corners of white side: R U R’ U’ (sexy move) 3. 2nd layer: U’ L’ U L U F U’ F’ (edge to left) U R U’ R’ U’ F’ U F (edge to right) 4. Yellow cross: F sexy move F’ 5. Yellow side, edge switch: R U R’ U R U2 R’ U 6. Yellow side, corner switch: L’ U R U’ L U R’ U’ 7. Yellow side, corner rotation: sexy move
Would u mind giving me the summary but also note, where everything is positioned. Like how do I hold it where does this piece and this piece stay. If that makes sense if not I guess I can do it myself eventually lol
I have mastered everything except OLL and PLL and wanna learn this way also
@@zboy.05 what is OLL and PLL?
@Krisztina Emrich part of the CFOP method, Cross First 2 Layers, Orient Last Layer, Permeate Last Layer. Basically when u have everything solved expect yellow pieces
Thank you it’s my first time solving cubes and I couldn’t done without your help I really appreciated it.
Thanks man!! solved my first three rube's cube ever. And I have been getting better at it. all learnt from your video
Beginner look no further, this is the one you need! Thanks man!
Thanks for the tips. This seems doable now. I love the Rubik's Cube and your explanation.
Great video. Simple, at the right pace and simplified for people to easily follow. Like the fact that different scenarios are explained where required. Merci beaucoup de l'ile Maurice . You are a brilliant teacher.
Hi, just wanted to thank you for the excellent video, you are the one that helped me understand the 3x3 cube, when ALL THE OTHER TUTORIALS failed. Now i cube everything up to the 8x8. my best time on the 3x3 is 54seconds, so I have more algs to learn but friends ask how to learn, and your video is where i direct them every time. thanks man.
I love this video...u actually help me solve my rubic cube. So thank you so much for teaching the easiest way to solve a rubic cube.
Thank you for explaining so well. Now I can solve the cube.
I bought my cube 6 years ago and I just couldn't solve it. Now, I first watched most of you video, till the point where you use corner switch and the corners are just orientated the wrong way. I didn't watch the part after that, and just switched the corners by turning them. Now I can solve it properly, like a pro. Thankyou 🙂. My friend didn't believe me first that you can use 4 algorithms, and now I think if I show it to him he would jump a metre high. He' s a pro in solving cubes. I am proud to think that I can now join him in solving cubes like a pro. Thankyou very much. This method is really very easy and reliable 🙂

When you wrote step 3b you put “L” instead of “R”
@@RubberDucky297 Hmm. Thanks for the head's up. I tried to correct it, but YT won't let me save the comment once I change it. I tried simply posting the comment again, from scratch, but YT won't allow the links through that way. Maybe I have to delete the comment for a while, and try again later, maybe after 24 hours. Until then, everyone type out the algorithms yourselves, I guess.
@@RubberDucky297 yes.. MISTAKE IN 3B
I FINALLY solved it after over 3.5 hours and rewatching your steps when I messed up!
Thanks so much am 71 I solved it in the 80s but then I forgot but now my grandchild (7) wants me to teach him and your video helped me a lot.
You're the BEST! Just solved a cube for my first time, and you're instructions are easy to follow. This is the best beginner's guide on KZhead. I've wanted to accomplish this since I was very young. Can't thank you enough!

Thanks Greg your 4 algorithms worked and I solved the rubik's cube. It was hard at first , but I got it
I did the rubix cube yesterday all day and would have had been done if I had messed up but maybe when it scrambled with the sexy move supposed on be like that till you get the corners. I love rubix cube for life it’s amazing as this guy simple method.
This is awesome. I just solved the cube using your method for the first time ever. Thanks!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've watched like 30 of these videos and this was the first one that actually helped me solve it!
thank you so much, it's so helpfu, now I can solve a rubik's cube, love it
Great explanations!!! I started with a 2x2 a couple weeks ago and now here I am.
3rd ⁵53 3!08p7p⁰⁰0
I’ve tried numerous methods. Yours worked for me! It’s my first time solving the Rubik’s Cube! Thank you!!
Thank you man i learned how to make a Rubik's cube in only 2 days using your methods ❤🏆
Takes me a day to make it! This is a wonderful instructions! Thank you I did it!!
It took me 2 days...countless KZhead videos.. I finally got it with this one! Thanks
Thank you i solved mine after rewatching this for a day.
OMG, that "sexy move" makes everything so much easier! I can totally solve it now. THANK YOU!
I like how you say totally
Best ever video for a beginner to solve the cube and i personally learnt in a single watch and is easy to understand.
The first explanation that allowed me to solve the cube for the first time! So this gets a thumbs up and a thank you :)
Solved my first 3X3 last night. Thank you.
I finally did it, I guess I had to do the corner algorithm several times in order to get it facing the right way. Thank you
Good job im happy for you 👍
Best Rubiks cube for beginners video.
first time ever I solved the cube.. it's been a loooong time ago when I knew rubik's cube when I was little, Thanks for your explanation
After years of trying and giving up I finally can do it thanks to you! There are a lot of tutorials out there that try to explain it without the algorithm and notation, but I feel like those are needed. A few days ago I couldn't solve one at all, now I can solve one in 2 minutes! A tip for people who are struggling, write down the steps and algorithms! It helped my adhd brain a lot!
I tried writing it down but when I solve using my instructions (which are literally the same as the video’s) I keep messing up
Thank you so much, Greg! this video was very helpful for a starter like myself. I watched one of your other vids, but found it quite confusing. This is so much better. Thank you and I look forward to many more videos from you. 👍👍
please pin!!!!!!!!!
Your not going to get a pin idiot
Wow!! First time I actually solved one!! Thank you!!
Best video for cube solving hands down
This really worked for me! Thank you so much!!!
This was great, now I can solve a cube! Thanks a million!
Thank you, I have watched several videos but this helped
I already know how to solve the rubiks cube but i wanted to learn different ways. This video was so easy to understand so tysm!!
This is amazing. Gunna have to relearn now!!!
So after 3/4 days of watching and listening to this video I finally solve my first cube 🎉🎉🥳🥳
You deserve to be followed Mr.
Thanks!!! I was missin the last córners.. Now i can finish It!
this was very helpful thank you
Did you know, You can make this more simple. If you do the edges at the mittle layer before the corners on the first layer. You can skip the “2th layer move”
Very nice video. Totally understandable and very simple to follow.
Thank you so much now I can show off how to match colors on a cube
Your video was the first one based on that I understood the advanced cross
This is the best method I like . Thankyou
Thanks alot ,great help,you made it so simple to understand wow
Hi your method is really helpful. I am able to solve the rubik cube many times. Your tutorial is very clear to the point and easy to understand and follow. You are 👍👍👍👍👍👍. Thank you very much.
thanks man. you just made things a fair bit easier for me. I need practice tho....Cheers
Thank you so much,,, this was the best video and you are so good at it,,,I was able to solve it once ,,, but I always get stuck in the last step and also there so many other scenarios apart from the ones that you have shown in the video,,, I’ll keep practicing with you on the video until I get it all right:)
I know I’m commenting on an almost year old vid but this (my opinion) was a great tutorial, I’d tried it before with over peoples vids and could never find a good one so thanks soooo much 👌👍
Nick Cahill ty
thank you, i was able to successfully do it after multiple attempts. Need to teach my daughter now :)
I love your voice omg it's so relaxing. It helps me not get anxious while solving this ❤️
I can do the math to track a piece of metal the size of you finger a mile but this is just complex props to you lad
OMG I can do this! Thank you Greg!!!!!
Greg, you are a genius!!!
@@MARIA-and-CATS Glad I could help Maria :) How has your experience been these past months ? Still going at it ?
@@GregMakesThings yes! I do it a few times per week so i won't forget how 😉
Best video - very understandable.
Best method ever !!! In 2 days, I came from half an hour to 2:33 minutes :-) I added 1 algorithm for the yellow cross : I use yours (F(sexy move)F') with a line but I use R'U'F'UFR whith a right angle. Thank you !
You are the greatest teacher explaining the cube..! Thankyou!! My favorite song is now....r...u..r prime ..u prime...lol thanks again 🙂👍
Thanks man I got it after some hours 👍🏼😎
Greg this is one of the Best Rubik's methods i've seen! 😃💯💪👏👍👌💰
finally!!!! solved!! great and easiest method! thank you!!
Thank you so much, Greg! this video was very helpful for a rookie like myself. I watched one of your other videos, but found it confusing because of the angle that you were solving the cube. This is so much better. Thank you again and I look forward to many more videos from you. 👍👍
chessdude67 hi, since you understood, may you help me on the “corner switch” part? I can’t seem to get it right.
Hi💕, hope you’re having a good day, I hope you don’t mind me spreading the gospel with you, so here it goes just wanted you to know that God loves you and wants you to experience peace and life in a better way and eternally.But bc we disobey God and go our own sinful ways we r separated from Him,but Jesus Christ lived a perfect life for you & died on the cross and rose from the grave for you,He paid the penalty for our sins and bridged the gap between God and us so if you trust Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and receive Him by personal invitation you receive that free gift and eternal life, have a blessed day, byee💕
Thanks for the tutorial!
This is not a click bait video and IT DOES help you solve the Rubiks Qube.... cheers Greg... great vid 👍🏻👍🏻
Great video everything is so easy to do 👍🏻👍🏻
You have a very good explaining
First time ever solving a cube was using this video, very helpful thank you!
Thanks this helps me a lot
I love this I solved it for the first time!😋
I have never clicked so fast... only to realize it actually WASN'T clickbait :O I already am past beginner's method and am learning 2-look OLL and PLL (so beginner CFOP) and I already know intuitive F2L. I gotta write these algs down so I can teach my friend the cube As to you people who are hating on it for being bad... I don't see anything that's unclear at all, and he explains the steps very well, I give this tutorial a +2 (Only cubers will get that pun) Edit: Ok, it's not perfect, I see that; but he's simpling it down to SIX ALGORITHMS. The normal beginner's method uses around 12 algorithms, so he's cutting that in half. Quit complaining and learn two things; not everything is perfect, and that things won't immediately come to you from watching a KZhead video
Thank you ❤️
I watched this video for about 3 days and went back a few hundred times before finally solving it a few minutes ago. Lol What an amazing feeling though! Now how the hell do I memorise those algorithms?!
Thanks for this video btw 👍🏽
Thanks man 10/10 tutorial
This helped so much I solved my first rubix cube thanks to you You earned a new like and sub
Glad I could help :)
This is sooo good I finally solved the rubies cube
Great tutorial! For some it might be confusing while you keep up the pace ;)
You got the best videos yo
On the last two moves if I have 3 to 4 of the corners in the right places but there in the wrong orientation do I still have to use that or just the sexy move cus I tried to and it didn’t work
This video was hard, but not as hard as other ones. After about an hour of rewatching I finally solved it! Thanks for your help!
Then I'll also rewatch
Too much information for me Have to come back later especially after watching other videos already!
Fantastic!! Thank you!
Very nice beginner method Tks. I think if you learn the mirrors you can do an 8 look last layer not too slow
Watching this for the first time I solved my first rubiks cube and I I still use this method for my solves now and get a average of 9
I once saw a german video that explains all algorithms with picture language using certain colors as mark points for every phase. It actually doesnt even require you to learn the algs by muscle memory or anything
Thank you. I’ve watched a few tutorials, but I didn’t learn much from them. I’ve been trying to solve a Rubik’s cube for quite sometime now. So thank you for this tutorial. I was finally able to solve it for the first time.
Hey i dont know if you will see this comment but what would you have to do if you had all but two corners on the same side left? I tried all the algorithms then ended up with yellow on top and the top blue corners swotched, and my cube doesnt corner twist
thank you so much bro!!!! this was super helpful =]
WOOOOHOOOO! FIRST TIME!! THANKS!
I've been trying to figure out the corner switches, I'm still confused on why I can't get it right lol is there like another algorithm or is it the same either way you have to flip the corners?
Best explanation !
What do you do when you’re on the last layer yellow side facing up and you’re doing the corner pieces and one corner is all paired up and the other diagonal corner piece is in it right place but the other two corner pieces are not in the right place, so what do you do with that situation, I know it’s pretty rare for that to happen but it did happen to me three or four times.
Well explained
