TLDR - 3x3 cubes now are all pretty great, and you should use one that suits you, and not force yourself to use one that suits someone else.

I'm still over here trying to get a sub 15
+ApricotPit02 XD lol im still going for a sub 25 average
***** I was just practicing today and I got a sub 19 and 20 . I'm sure I'll get a sub 15 soon with just a bit more practice and another lucky solve. I have been improving though. A couple weeks ago I couldn't stop getting 27-35 seconds and now I'm getting about 26 seconds for my worst solves. I also just beat my best average of 5 with 21.534 yesterday. So I'm getting there. Hopefully in about a week or so I'll at least get a sub 16.
Sadly enough my pb is 14.... I average sub 20 xD

I find it very funny how Feliks got 2 out of his 12 solves to he faster than the actual world record
He's legendary for everyone anywaya.
Well pretty much every single one of his Friday Four solves are a WR, sol no surprise there
Lol same
yes, but this video proved that he can achieve the WR every few solves, which is not obvious from the weekly episodes from which we can only deduce that he gets the WR about once a week
yeah, obviously he can get under the world record a few times, and people comparing him to Lucas... 😂bitch please Lucas only had a so fucking good luck to get this time.

It trully changed the world of speedcubes and speedcubing forever. It is the monocoque chassis and carbon fiber in racing equivalent of cubing. From them on many new cubes have been made but none has been a clear winner, cheap and apt for OH and normal solving as well as for newbies and pro solvers alike.
2:16 Yeah just got sub-5 no biggie
He has a weekly playlist for Sub-5 :P
Philip Lauer Yeah I know. But you'd think that would take a little more than a couple tries

Gan is my favorite. It fits my turning style. I use Gan 249 v2 M, Gan 356 air SM, and Gan 460 M.
WuQue is so much better. Even J Perm agrees
Thanks Feliks Zemdegs😄. It helped me a lot!
I wish you still made videos like this
I was out of cubing for a few years, a lot has changed inside the community. I'm still cubing with the DaYan ZhanChi. Are the cubes now a big difference? What would you recommend me for a cube.
If anyone still has the same question as you 5 years ago: yes it's a big improvement especially because of magnets. As of 2023 I believe the best cubes are the RS3M Super (very cheap and flagship performance), the Xman tornado V3 (My favourite, very high performance and amazing feel), and the Weilong v9/YS3M. Gan flagship are good but 80$ is just unreasonable given how good other cheaper cubes are
My main is the Gans 356 Air. I really like Ganspuzzles, so I had to order it. On the day I got it I broke all my PBs. I am now more averaging like 16 seconds, a lot faster than 17.5 seconds as I did on the 356 S. My PB ao5 got down by 1.2 seconds and my single got down by 1.8. I also got a sub-16 ao12. I don't think I will ever change my main again.
Idk, sometimes just setting up a cube right can make it better than a current one (this is from experience, and from a fellow Gan enthusiast).
Feliks you made me wanna start solving a rubiks cube when i saw you solve one in 4.73 seconds i was "wow that was so fast" now i can only solve one in 60 seconds
Personally the YAN3 is my favorite cube, based on feeling, mine has never locked up even thought I have sort of a rough turning style, so I really am comfortable with it
Ahora entiendo por que eres el mejor del mundo... ;)
1:11 he got faster than the world record
Hey, I watch ur videos so I decided to subscribe to u. Thanks a lot for making the videos!😃😃😃
I swear you broke the world record more than once in that video
That 4.58
Don't you think the WeiLong GTS is worthy enough for that list? I think it's an upgrade from the yuexiao.
I reckon YueXiao is better than Weilong GTS
+Ethan585790 I have both of them, either my weilong GTS is faulty, or you facts are wrong? YueXiao corner cuts better for me
+Ethan585790 yea
+Ethan585790 Weilong GTS is my close second too, really the only difference I find between the two is that the Weilong GTS just rarely fails a corner cut and locks a bit, but I haven't failed a corner cut in a solve before up to now. :)
+SuperTommy64 or maybe I set up my GTS wrong XD
His turning style is SO NEAT
Felix I have a question how do you feel about a Dayan zhanchi compared to uhm idk like an xmen tornado. Which would you choose for a competition
Who’s watching in 2019?
try speed cube on a normal rubiks... because them damn non cubers keep complaining that im not using the official rubiks so its "technically not solving the rubiks cube" you know how hard it is to turn those rubiks cubes
After tensioning it and making it not super tight, i was able to corner cut at about 30°. Thise cubes are trash. But they are nastalgic.
I hope that the Yangchen Yan 3x3 and the MoFang Jiaoshi MF3RS are good cubes. They are fairly cheap, and I bought them to start to get better times and transition from an ordinary Rubik's brand cube. I used a worn-out Gans cube that my friend showed me, and it was amazing. I get why many people like Feliks use them as their main, as it is so controllable, and the circular center makes for great corner cutting.
How do you have your Zhanchi set up? I have one and I like it loose but it keeps popping :/ Also, thoughts between Gans Air and Valk, I quite like my friends YueXiao. I'm also planning to try out a magnet mod on the Zhanchi 😂

ik Feliks won't reply but just In case... will you show your Rubiks cu e collection
He doesn't really have much of a collection (especially for the worlds best cuber) at least from what I've seen. It looks like just a bunch of each wca event, but I could be wrong.
Felik's isn't really one to collect different cubes. Like Cubie said, he mainly does speedcubing so that's what he practices on. Unlike RedKB, he is still a speed cuber but isn't nearly as fast. This is probably because he spends so much time with strange looking cubes like a 3x3x4 or something that they don't use in a competition. Felik's is about competition. Although I'm sure he has a couple strange cubes.
+Cubie Cuber does he even have 8x8
+FightZombie 22 I have no idea, but I do agree with apricot about that he is about competition, and doesn't really collect much
+Cubie Cuber yeah
i know its really old but the aolong v2 is just so perfect for me!
Your my favorite speed cuber
weilong gts or gans air?
Depends on your turning style and desired characteristics of a cube.
yeah I guess I'll follow your advice and just try other cubes until I find what I want. For now I'll stick with my Thunderclap!

+Feliks Zemdegs what is your main?

You are the best of the best ever definitively...
Is there a specific way you set up the different GANS cubes or do you set them up the same? How do you set them up? Could you upload a video like Kevin Hays did for how to set up a 6x6 only you do one for a 3x3?

are you going to do a part 2 2020 edition of this. there is so much debate about the best speed cube these days (gan x,gan xs, gts 3m etc)
Cool vid! How about the magnetic Gans one? I hear it's just like the ultimate but w magnets, of course.
I am new to cubing and I am sub 50. My cube is really bad so I want to buy a speed cube. So which one will be better? As I am new I don't have any certain style or preference.
QiYi Thunderclap. It's only $8, you can buy off TheCubicle.us. It's currently the best cube for its price, and is very flexible for turning style preferences. Give it a try!
Philip Lauer Thanks for the advice. I was also thinking about Thunderclap
try a not so fast one at first - if you go for like an aolong or a gans then it'll just be too fast for you. guanlongs are very cheap and pretty quick so go there - it's like $6 or something
Thomas The Racer GuanLongs are not good cubes, and Thunderclaps are very controllable by nature--perfect for beginners and advanced cubers alike. GuanLongs are really badly designed, I recommend against getting one.
Philip Lauer guanlongs aren't great but they're a good cheap starting point and i already had one but i lost it
-Felix- Feliks, is Moyu good for speedcubing?
feliks, what do you do with your zhanchi? It's look awesome !!!
Hi this is kind of a late comment, what would be the best lubricant for a guoguan yuexiao 3x3? It’s my main at the moment and I need some lubricant as it is VERY dry atm

Hey feliks I am a big fan of yours I just love the way you solve the rubik's cube can you please tell me how u to it
I've been using a Dayan ZhanChi forever and love it. What newer cube is most likely to suit me?
thunderclap v1
Thunderclap the best
yeah you can't go wrong with the thunderclap v1
thunderclap or aolong
Harlequin314159 aolong v1
What is a modern speed cube that feels like the zhanchi but is better?
Zhanchi is pretty tight and blocky, so not too many cubes feel like it. Maybe the MoYu TangLong or Gans 357?
Philip Lauer What i'm looking for is something smooth and fast like my Zhanchi but with less popping and better corer cutting but still controllable
eric Gallant If you're willing to put enough time into setting this cube up properly, I'd recommend getting a QiYi Thunderclap v1. It's everything you describe except smooth out of the box (it feels more crunchy), but you can break it in and lube it specifically to make it more smooth with something like Lubicle Silk. If you want that feeling out of the box, though: the newer Gans cubes (356 v2 and Air) are smooth, don't really pop, control very well, and corner cut very well. The choice is yours!
Philip Lauer thanks alot ill do some more research and ill get back to you if i buy any of the ones you recomended😁
eric Gallant just buy a dayan zhanchi 2017
Hey feliks, can you please just do a big solving montage of just you solving cubes superfast because it is so satisfying

I am just getting started into cubing, and after doing some research, I’ve concluded that the MF3RS would be a good cube for me. It’s cheap, so if I don’t like cubing all that much it won’t be a big loss, and I also heard it not bad for being $5. Any suggestions on if I should get a different one? Or is this one okay?
Feliks, I'm from the future. Cubes have changed massively. There's a new gan model. Called the 356x. they also made a budget gan called the 356r. It costs 16$ but everyone knows it sucks. We are expecting the gan air sm 2019. Good luck in 2016! Love, future guy.
Guys I really need help. I want a speed cube that is great and that isn't up to $15 on amazon otherwise I can't afford. If someone has some advice or suggestions I would be glad because I really wanna improve my pb since I have a speed cube that sucks because it's actually a really bad quality cube. (I'm sub 35 rn)
